Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Oratory: Or Selections From the Speeches of Eminent Americans No apology can be required for presenting to the American public a volume of Speeches selected from the best efforts of their own statesmen. Public discussion is elsewhere the province of a few; in our country, it is the duty of almost all. It is not only desirable, therefore, but absolutely necessary, that all should have at hand those models, which the peculiar character of our institutions, the tone of our national thought, and the exigencies of our history, have combined to produce. Foreign orators may serve as examples of style, but the inhabitants of a republic must seek at home for the intellectual results of the government they have chosen, and for the illustration of those principles by which it is to be sustained. If they cannot always find the same refinement of language, or the same elaborateness of thought, which in older countries is the result of hereditary wealth and more scholastic education, they will discover at least a vigorous and masculine diction, patriotic sentiments, and unflinching independence, the appropriate attendants upon themes for the most part grave, and frequently severe. The editor does not affect to have used any extraordinary research in the compilation now presented to the reader. The character of the subjects discussed has had great influence with him in the selections he has made. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

They have been de claimed for years from every school platform in the country, and with most inspiring in uence. Andrew Draper says: The old-time school declamation on recurring red-letter days in the regular 'routine of the early schools was a great stimulant to boys and girls. It was not more in the words that were heard than in the fact that the boys themselves gave expression to them. It is the doing of things which stirs ambition and creates power, even the doing of things which some one else has done. There are plenty of men prominent in affairs who would gladly testify to the uplifting in uences of the master pieces of oratory and literature on their own lives by means of the school declamation.

None of our public men better understand the power of oratory than did Lincoln, and he esti mated it from its highest plane. He would not have been a great orator in Rome when Roman people were swayed by the impassioned eloquence of their orators to deify to-day and crucify to-morrow, but he was one Of the greatest Of American orators of the rare type that always appeals to the considerate judgment Of mankind. The power Of the impassioned oratory that swayed the ancients in the days of Demosthenes has been impaired by the growing in culture and thoughtful ness Of the people Of all nations. There are occa sions when it is yet most appropriate and impressive, but they are rare. It at times asserts itself In great trials in our courts of justice, but its impressions speedily perish, unless they appeal to some enduring human sympathy. Senator Depew truthfully says, Eloquence is the master element in politics, but political oratory in this country, like the political oratory Of every other civilized country Of the world, has materially changed in its most effective attributes. In the days Of Thomas Corwin Of Ohio, and Sargent S. Prentiss of Mississippi, the political orator was the sole dependence of political parties.
