ABOUT HORACE GREELEY.
His Luck of Oratorical Ability, II U
Handwriting nnd Ecctntrieltlei,
From Harper's Magazine.
Horace Greeley was not an orator In
any scholastic sense. Ha had a pour
and somewhat squeaking voico; ha
know nothing of gestures, nnd he could
not take an orator's pose, which adda
such emphasis sometimes to the mat
ter and argument to be iet forth, Not
all his years of practice on the platform
and on pu'b'lc occasions ever cha.igeil
his habits and methods as a speaker,
and ho ended as poorly equipped in the)
respects n.iined for the vocation as
when he began But he had one prim
quality without which nil the ot'iera
are exploited in vain. He Invariably
lad something to say, nnd ho said it
ir such clear atut whclet-ome English,
with Mich slncor.fy, t'n.t he was an
ciator In spite of all the rules.
To state It rpir-f. of .ill the eminent
hpeakers 1 have Introduced- and morn
than one their- was not 0110 wno gavo
better satisfaction, different and nota
ble as they were, than Horace Greeley.
As a consequence, h" came to mo of
tenest. nnd wore the best. We might
or might not agree with some of his
peculiar premise, as wnen he says:
"The moment a drop of tUr-hohol Is re
ceived Into the human stomach that
moment the stomach recognizes a dead
ly enemy;" but he sijt his audience to
thinking, and illuminated his theme.
His handwriting I early learned tho
plphabet of, giving him In reply ns
some who thought they knew said
"as good ns he sent." Ills chlrography
was phenomenally and preternaturally
atrocious; but when you onco get tha
trick of tho hieroglyphics, it wus not
so very difficult to read. Tho storlea
about It outnumber the fables of Eaop.
It Is claimed that the presidents and,
secretaries of some lyceums would oc
casionally get a letter from him an
nouncing that he could not come, which!
they read afllrmatlvely, and to which
they would reply that the date named
and price mentioned were entirely sat
isfactory, and then proceed to n.akul
public announcement of his lecture,
Ever, his eccentric Ideas were made
plausible by his treatment, I heard
him say once thnt what was then
thought to bo the great American des
ert ought to be planted with Canada
thiotlep, so as to give nature some sort
of a green start, when other vegltatlon
might be made 1 to follow. But tha
tiouble is, Cumlda thistles, like any
other thing Inspired by "pure cussed
ness," win only grow and thrive whera
they ought not to. Find a place whera
their presence would do some good,
nnd, as In the Humpty Dumpty (.as,
"all the king's horses and all the king's
men" could not fasten them them.
This perverseness suggests in a certain
way, the smnli hoy's conception of a
good and had his enchiridion of na
ture nnd life.
"What's fun," he paid. "Is always
wicked; what we don't want to do In
pious."
Mr. Greeley would cut down his ald
ers In the Spring. When I mildly sug
gested to him that our agricultural au
ttu.rlllCH preferred tho Autumn for that
work, when nature could not so well
aid their struggle for existence, ha
thought this reason was a mere excuso
for not cutting them at all.
