Professor Alien, of the Central College of -the Slate of New York, recently delivered an oratory which wo have not seen, but from which (he Cleve land True Democrat quotes largely. Wo transfer to our culumt one nr two of the extracts. lie says : 41 Julias Ctesar wan one of Rome's greatest orators, and, had he given liis attention exclusively to the nti, woold doubtless have surpassed him whose name shed so much lustre on the Roman history.— Cesar woe a man of wonderful genius. The Ro mans thought him a god; and. I was n bout to say. well they might: for judged in the light of mind, ss comprehensive ss flexible, as comprehensive ond an intense os both, Rome never produced his equal ” After giving “ the plan of Demosthenes’ master piece,” Prof. Allen says : “ Demosthenes and Cicero aru (he opposites in style, ' If Demosthenes be the prince of orators, then one may attain to tho highest position in the art, and yet be almost entirely deficient in ideality. Demosthenes deals in logic and fuels. Ilia nrgu mentation is iron linked ; and when ho amites.it in as though he wielded one of tho thunderbolts of Jove. Cicero, on the other hand, in loss strong, hut more graceful, grander, and more magnificent. The one speaks in sentences, short, vivid, and of light ntng stroke ; the oilier, in sentences long.onsy. flow ing and majestic.—Tho stale endangered, or in emergencies generally, Demosthenes is superior io Cicero, because more vehement ‘ and rapid, Ho so constructs his sentences, nlso, as to demolish as wilh a comauming flee, everything which opposes him.— lie is vindictive, sarcastic, severe, terrible.'' Having copied a passage each from Demosthenes a nd Cicero, tho Professor adds : •• By this comptrisoo of extracts, you will perceive that in beauty and harmony of diction, Cicero is superior to Demosthenes. There is about (bo Ro man power of insinuation, a worming of ono’a self into the sflcctiuus, which the great Grecian docs not possess. To sum up in a few words, tho compari son between these two lights ancient history, it uuy be said lint Cicero wins. Demosthenes compels." Here is one of his touches of Webster, which i« none liic worse for our thinking it is slightly tinged with hyperbole . The most eminent orator which America in her prosperous days has produced, is unquestionably Daniel Webster ; snd the greatest speech viewed ar liatlcally. wbicli has ever been delivered on the A moricon Continent, is his reply to II iyne. • • ••Compared with CUy, Webster is less s genius so f«r as gCnlus lies in contrlvnncy and Ihe ability lo load, but a man of more magnnificenl talent.— This superUli.vcl; great and superlatively bad man of America is eminently an ex pounder and defon* der, not a leader and aggressor. The speeches of Webster are destined to {lll a Urge and important place in the history of America literature ; and not only so, some hundred years beneo will be read with more eagerness than nofc. In reading, we m.iy separate the thought and (ho man, but* the human mind is so constructed that it cannot thus deal with the speaker who live* his history amongst us. As models nf a stylo uniting beautifully the simple and (he majestic, the speeches of Wchslci aro unsurpas. *ed, and, 1 believe, unsurpassable.” Prof. Allen epesks of Loots Kossolh •# the" great est of orators, wholhei of ancient or [of) date.” Hero is a more dash of hie brush at the Hungarian's picture : a Judging him from the speeches which I hove read, I should regard him. ss I have already aaid, tunorior lo any orslor. who hse ever spoken, wheth er of ancient or modern date. True, ho does not thunder like Demosthenes, nor does ho link his lo (jo wilh such Iron ss the Grecian : nor does ho smite with to terrible a bolt. lie has not the swelling flow, nor the grandeur, nor the magnificence of Ci ceroj nor it ho ss massive or as ponderous as Web. slor. But ho bat onough of all qualities lo consti tute a symmetry which Is Car better than sny exclu sive prominence of any of the fsoultlea of cither rho torto or logic, while in exuberance of fancy and glowing imagination, he certainly never had an equal.” Prof. Allen’* opinion of a Now England orslor. whose elocution, wo think, is as admirable as his eloquence, Is thus expressed : »• WAndelle Philips Is well known as emphaileally the orator of NSW England. He has a vigorous de clsmntion. which is well setoff by a matchless beau ly of diction. Indeed, no orator in America bolter unite* In his style what are usually regatd as op posltes—strength end polish.

While richest command respect win position, and secure comfort, it is expected that they will be regarded by all classes only with a strong^and 'fansatlsfiod desire. Rut the undue reverence which is everywhere manifested for wealth, the rank which is conceded it, iho homage which is paid it, the perpetual worship which is offered it, all lend to magnify its desirableness tjnd awaken longings for its possession in the minds of those bofn without inheritance. In society as at present observed, the acquisition of money would seem lo bo the height of human aim—the great object of living, to which ali other purposes are made subordinate. Money, which plaits the lowly, and sheds honor upon the exalted—money, which makes sin appear goodness, and gives to viciousness (he seeming of chastity— money, makes silence evil report, and opens wide the mouth of praise—money, which contyUules its possessor an oracle, to whom men listen with def erence—money, which makes deformity beautiful, and sacrifices crime—money, which Ids the guilty go unpunished, and wins forgiveness for wrong money, which manhood and age .respect, and its I commendation surety, and good name for the! young—iiow shall it be gained 1 by whaf schemes gaihered in 1 by what sacrifice secured 1 These j are the questions which absorb the mind, the | practical answerings of which engross the life of ( men. Too schemes are too often those of fraud, : and murage upon the sacred obligations of being ; sacrifice, loss of the highest moral sense, the ne- ] gleet of internal life and development, the utter and sad perversion of the true purposes of e.\«s- j tence. Money is valued beyond its worth—it has [ gained n power vastly above its deserving. j Wealth is coyrled so obsequiously, is Haltered | so servilely, is so influential in moulding opinions • and judgment, has such a weight in the eetimn-l lion ol chaiHCter, that men reward its acquisition as the most prudent aim of their endeavors, ami j its possession as absolute enjoyment and honor, rather than the means of honorable, useful and happy hie. While riches are thus over-estima ted, and hold such power in community, men will forego ease and endure toil, sacrifice social pleas- | uren and abandon principle, tor iho speedy and , unlimited acquirement of properly. Money will | not be regarded as the means of living, but as the I object ol life. All nobler ends will bn neglected j in the eager haste to he rich. No higher pursuit will bo recognized than iho pursuit of gold—no niiamment deemed so desirable as the attainment , of wealth. While the great man of every rirele r is the rich man, in tlio common mind wealth be comes the synonyms of greatness. No condition 1 is discernible superior lo that w Inch money con fers; no lofiirr idea of manhood is entertained than that which embraces the extent of one’s pos sessions. A year or Iwo since, a Mr. B- ■, was elected to represent the town of Shelburne, Ni’w Haven, in xhe legislature. He was n plain, old fanner.' full of sound sense, and ready for any real work llial was needed. When he made liia appearance at ilie Slate Mouse, ii must he confessed ihal hie /«u/ ensemble was anything but fashionable. Ills lint was a perfect relict of antiquity—-his coarse frock and trnwsers of genuine dapple’-gray home spun, his shirt bosom, iho product of his wife’s oxxn loom, and his boots of the thickest and most 1 substantial cow-hide. As Mr. U—— entered the j lobby, there were several young “ members” I giamlino about ilie fire, and supposing llio new comer to he only a visitor, they merely cast a 1 glance at hie weather-browned face, turned up their noses at his verdant look, and then comm- 1 uod tlieil conversation.

She was offended— a lid 1 had not been neighborly. She reproached me for my negligence; said she thought 1 had been unkind. And I’ve since wondered whether she was sorry or not. A lady once said to me that she should like to be married, if she could gel a good congenial bus band who would make her happy or at least try (o. She was not difficult to please, she said. 1 said, “ I should like to get married, too, if I could gel a wife that would try to make me happy.”— She said “ Urnph !” and looked ns if she meant wlint she said.

Evert Man to his Caluno.—-The following anec dote is related of Mr. Willard, tho venerable clock maker of Boston, when on a visit to the VVliiiu House, in Madison’s administration, m hen ho was treated by tli.il excellent President with much more atten tion than his want of lime usually allowed ; fur Mr. I Willard was quite as remarkable in his own way .is I (be Chief Magistrate himself. Mr. Madison look great pains to show him the plants and (lowers, mentioning < heir scientific names as ho won! along. Mr. Willard, who was ignorant of botany, foil rather til at eaaeTiodor his want of knowledge, and did not recover bis self possession until returning to Iho President’s private parlor, ho was shown a clock of very cosily nnd curious workmanship, and asked if he could pul it in good repair. With quiet smile po culiar to him, ho removed Iho works from the case, and in a few minutes liar multitudinous parts were scattered in apparently hopeless confusion over Iho President’s table. *My friend, my friend, my gpod friend!' exclaimed Mr. Uwbal have you done '/’ 'Ab !' replied Mr. Willard, looking over his glasses, and chuckling with inward delight,‘when vnu talked In me about botany, t was wound up hard sir, and slopped sir ; but boro lam at homo ’ A few minutes sufficed lion to pul the wonderful clock to gether again, and sol it going, to tho no lilllo ndmi rslion nnd omuicmcnt of his host.

The president desired debaters, if they lied anything lo say to coniinuo on. Alter n pause, a peaked-looking man in iho buck part of 'hn house got up and said, with considerable con fidence and embarrassment Mr. President— I ihmk if a man saw his mother and wife In (he water drowning, ho ought to help his mother nut first; because you see, if his wifet/ir/get drowned he could got another one, but ho couldn't gel another toother, not easy !” This settled iho question and the verdict accordingly. 11 A Criminal Jpdgo was onco about to pronounce «cn'onco,of punishment upon an Irishman, for Iho porpetratlon of a theft. “And is ii open the oathfl of thim two witnesses your honor's going to condlm meV’ asked Pat. “Certainly,' 1 said the Judge; “their testimony was ample to convince iho jury of your guilt." “O, marcher I" he exclaimed.to “conuim mean the oaths of two spalpeens who swear they saw mo take (ho goods, whin 1 kin bring forth a hun dred who’H swear they did'ni see mo do it!"
