V.lntinrnre s. Oratory.
hlocutmn," says Mr. Crabb, in his
English Synonyms, " is requisite for an ac
tor, eloquence for a speaker."
" Eloquence lies in the person; it is a
natural gilt j oratory lies in tho mode of
expression; it is an acquired art. Elo
quence speaks one's own feelings; it conies
from the heart, and speaks to the heart ;
oratory is an imitative art; it describes
what is felt by another.
" An iifll.cted parent who pleads for the
restoration of her child that has been torn
from her, will exert her eloquence; a coun
selor nt the bar, who ph-nds the cause of
li s client, wnl employ oratory. Vulgar
partisans nre full ol rhetoric."
.. L'l . .
i...ii.iieiirc unen consists in a look or
an action; oratory must always be accom-puiii.-il
with language.
" There is a dumb eloquence, which is
not denied even lo the brutes, and which
s.x-i.ks more than all the studied graces of
speech and notion employed by the orj.tor:
"Ilia nfi.nl o-finMa pda a mll.ler doom.
And a aks w.. h all Hit eloquent of trait."
" Between eloquence aud oratory there
is the same distinction as la-tween nature
and art; the former ran never be perverted
