"Next to Patrick Henry, 8. 8. Prentiss was
the greatest natural orator that has appeared in
this country. Dsxtling wit, keen
sarcasm, apt illustrations, and brilliant figures of
speech poured in profusion from bis lips borne
on a torrent of feeling which irresistibly carried
away whatever audience he addressed: His hab
its were convivial he waS a prince of good fel
lowship, full of fun and anecdote, and no oue ever
exceeded him id the grace with which he told a
story." Buffalo Com.
"8. 8. Prentiss is ode of the most brilliant
names which adorn our annals. . The
work is a valuable contribution te 'American lite
rature, and its contents, most strongly interest
every admirer of true genius and gnuin: elo
quence." Troy Times. . s , !
" His public career Was a .brilliant one. As' a

in the South west,' or, if success be the test of
merit,1 in the land. Christian Jkfirrof.
