Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Speeches of Daniel Webster It is quite evident that Mr. Webster matured rather slowly; that his efforts made before the age of fifty were his most popular because the most impassioned efforts; but that his productions dated beyond the age of fifty, though less fiery, are generally more indicative of his unsurpassed abilities as a man of deep, penetrating, far reaching, and comprehensive mind. His mind, indeed, seemed to grow clearer as he advanced in years; and the very latest speeches, though not so striking to superficial hearers, will be regarded hereafter, by close and compe tent readers, as the most finished of all the productions of his tongue and pen.

This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eulogy on the Life and Character of the Late Daniel Webster There is nothing more interesting or instructive than the lives of men who have played important and distinguished parts in the drama of nations. The lives of such, when they have been wise and virtuous - their aims high and noble, afford examples which challenge the approval of all, while they excite the emu lation of, at least, a few. Such examples are the moral salt of the world. They give to it a wholesome and purifying savor, that preserves it from the decay and corruption into which it would otherwise more speed ily fall. W'hilst such men live, their wisdom is a light shining out amidst the darkness of ignorance, prejudice and error, show ing the way that leads to happiness, prosperity and safety; and when they die, their example survives to stimulate posterity to walk in their paths.

This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Discourse on the Life and Character of Daniel Webster I cannot bring myself to believe that the theme which is now engrossing all minds, should be excluded from the pulpit. We are a smitten nation. The symbols of mourning meet the eye in our crowded cities, in our tranquil Villages, in the remotest hamlets of the mountains. A great man has fallen in Israel! God has taken from us the honourable man, and the counsellor, and the eloquent orator. If such a man is one of the choicest earthly gifts heaven can bestow upon a people, his removal may well be regarded as one Of their greatest bereavements. We are admo nished that the fall of a sparrow has its lesson Of in struction for us. How inexcusable would it be, should we treat an event like this with indifference. Yet while I recognise the duty upon which I am entering, I shrink from it. I have no hope Of convey ing to your minds my own sense Of the magnitude Of our loss. Still less can I expect to elude the strictures of those who entertain What may, perhaps, be styled the popular View of the legitimate sphere of the pulpit. But I am pressed with the feeling that I must, as a Pastor, in some way improve this dispensation thatwithout attempting a formal eulogy on Mr. Webster, which would be in the highest degree presumptuous, I must here record my sense of the invaluable services he has rendered to our common country and our common Christianity, and so endeavour to turn the emotions of sorrow which fill our hearts, to some use ful account. If I can do nothing more, I must be al lowed to cast a single flower, however transitory, upon his grave.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Daniel Webster IF Daniel Webster had had the good fortune to die on March 6, 1850, the story of his career would have been the despair of biographers. To tell the truth, and at the same time to avoid a lapse into the horrors of grandiloquence, would have been one of the supreme tests of literary skill. But Nature has an unbroken custom of inserting the compensation balance into her work; and thus, in the case of Webster, it came about that he was unkindly kept alive a little too long, whereby he encountered the occasion of the seventh of March, 1850, and made upon that day a speech which is perhaps the most famous in our history, and also surely the most unfortunate. The order of subse quent events shows plainly that there was no rea son for this too long survival upon his part. For his great work had already been done; and neither that speech, nor anything which he did afterward in the brief remainder of his life, much afiected the course of events in the country. It was cruel that the end, which was so near at hand, should yet have sufiered this little postponement. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Daniel Webster, the Orator by : Albert E. Pillsbury
Download or read book Daniel Webster, the Orator written by Albert E. Pillsbury and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-24 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Daniel Webster, the Orator: An Address Delivered Before the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences and the New England Society of Brooklyn He was a lawyer, and he was also a statesman. He had studied the constitution that he might defend it. He had examined its principles that he might maintain them. More than all men, or at least as much as any man, he was attached to the general government and to the union of the states. His feelings and opinions all ran in that direction. A question of constitutional law was, of all subjects, that one which was best suited to his talents and learning. Aloof from technicalities and unfettered by artificial rules, such a question gave opportunity for that deep and clear analysis, that mighty grasp of principle, which so much distinguished his higher efforts. His very statement was argument. His inference seemed demonstration. The earnestness of his own convie tion wrought conviction in others. One was convinced and believed and assented because it was gratifying, delightful, to think, to feel and believe, ll'l unison with an intellect of such evident superiority. It is Webster himself, the orator, lawyer, and statesman, who is here painted by his own hand in a portrait for which Dexter sat, but of which none but Webster could fill the outlines. We are to look at Webster the orator. It is the most attractive if not the most important character in which he appeared. Webster's greatest power was the power ofspeech. As an orator he won his highest triumphs, and as an orator he will be longest remembered. His pre-eminence as a lawyer and statesman was largely due to his surpassing powers of clear, eloquent, and convincing statement. There were other lawyers of his time who had more learning of the books, and a few who were quite' his equals in comprehensive grasp of legal principles. There were statesmen who had more qualities of leadership, more organizing and constructive power, more depth and permanence of conviction. As a consummate master of speech, Webster is without a rival in our history, if he has a superior in the history of eloquence. Halfa century has now passed since Webster's death, and threescore and ten years since he reached the summit of his powers. The atmosphere is cleared of the incense of praise and the mists of detraction which rose about him in his own time. His contemporaries have disappeared, and the mem ory of the greatest of them is fading. Historic events have intervened, of the utmost importance, almost transforming the character of the government. Another generation of states men has appeared, done its work, and passed away. That Webster is still among the first in interest of all our great characters is striking evidence of the permanent hold which he took upon his countrymen. The great political changes which have befallen since his day, so far from obliterating his memory, have helped to preserve it; for in every one of them his influence was felt and his authority invoked, as it is in voked to - day, even by those who would pervert it. The new procession of historic figures which has passed across the national stage has hardly crowded him from the central place. The reason is not far to seek. Webster stamped himself in delibly upon the American mind. To an extent of which we are not always conscious, he wove himself into the very fabric of the government. His word directed the course of the public thought on national topics. His great speeches became part of our history, our literature, our constitutional law, almost of our national existence.
