ANA | nave heard mat VT. fNefett
Salt II was the neattSl, handSome1t
and most chaste Introduction lie had
eyer had. Persons Who heard boll
addresses have told me that Millcf'S,
while not more scholarly ana fhe-
~torical than EVerett's yet it had more
fine and more genuine eloquence. ana
that its delivery was not so studied as
ENefetts, but 1t was more thrilling
ana soul stirring. Everett was very
cold and formal and lie resumed all
the attitudes Of the declaimcr in the
books and every gesture was studied
and showed careful preparation. HIS
rheloflc was grand ana beautiful, Wen
suited to a cultured audience, but III
appropriate to q promIScuouS assem-
bly,, and while you admire its grandeur
, and beauty, yet there is nothing IN ms
speech That made YOU feel ike cheer
ing. ON the contrary Miller could
!, entertain q cultured audience ana at
the same time ire a multitude, for
he was magnetic and could bind
fast the soul, and Tapped it in
Flysium.' Everett was distinguish
ed for the elegance, strength ana
beauty OF ms language, Miller fof ohe
boIdness and grandeur Of his figure.
We see IN Everett a more sustained
} effort, in Miller vivid and brilliant
! flashes of oratory. Everett had
more Of address, Miller more of Vigor,
energy and fire. Every gesture and
!, movement of Everett was practiced
: before the mirror. while Miller's We're
made on the sudden impulse Of the
) moment, and seemed to be the result
Of an electric thrill and were therefore
+ more natural. Everett cared nothing
for action. but made his speeches
! hinge on their chaste d%iCtiOn, beauti-
; ful sentences and glowing rhetoric,
EVerett'S though of a different type,
