T All through the speech there are elevated and jst'eeniirnti : The narrative" is easy and flowing, and tho Btyof the oration 3s : good. nehave-f or many years regarded Senator Vance as one of the best :of . living North Carolina vrriterss " His v: addresses on . various.;, occasions on. - fcen; ,Lee,; at the f tfniversityat';; Wake Forest College,, before the South ern Historical, Society, ' ''at'.Kin-j' ston, as "well, as t his sketches of Western North Carolina, have satis-f fied us that ! he has : what' very few public men of oar- State during1 the last tlwentyjlyeaw'xan nsaLt'O; have j-a style. , He writes with clear-; ness, with force, with simplicity, with a certain scholarly : grace and finish, and 'at times .with real eloquence. We do him simple justice ' in saying this. ... We could cullj from his pub lished writings some excellent speci mens of rhetoric and of eloquence. . : The Kinston oration does not offer any very striking passages, but the whole is well done. The order of the discussion impressed us as good. It is the very kind of address that was needed. It teaches the people' many things they should know. It presents in clear outline a noble character. : We think Senator (Vance bas estimated Gov. Caswell correctlyas "the fore most figure in our State daring the era of . our Revolution.' He says "the people of North Carolina said so again and again, and they could not well 'have -been mistaken." They were near the mam They saw the! height and depth of the popular favorite, and they honored him as no other; contemporary North Carolinian was honored. Gov. Cas well was not tnj-j teUeciuaUy the leader of all men in his day. :: - He was surrounded with many men whose minds were as lofty and capacious as his. In fact, there were more purely intellectual men in North Carolina5 than;: he throughout 3 his career. This fact is recognized by Vance and he happily gives Senator the secret of his marked success.? He was a statesman of the racfi'ca kind a man of judgment and great' com mon sense.'' Brit let ' ns copy a para- graph from the - oration. Senator .
