If the monthly poriodioal oalled the Galaxy bad an editor possessing a tolera? ble acquaintance with American history, it could not have published suob a tissue of blundering statements and stupid speculation as appears in its September number under tho title wo huve copied. The article is a display of splenetic and almost spiteful detraction by a writer who bas exhibited his fecundity in that vein in respect to several moro recont public obaraotera-Mr. Edward A. Pol? lard, author of "Tho Lost Causo Re? gained" and other vitnperativo works. Mr. Pollard undertakes to show, in tho September Galaxy, that Patrick Henry, '.tho forest-born Demosthenes," (as_By? ron called him,) was no orator, but only a vulgar stump-speaker, "who bad been flattered and over-valued by country au? diences," but was shamed into silence when be bad opportunitiea to speak be? fore trained judges and ablo men. Mr. Pollard says that, this orator's greatest triumphs "wero won in comparatively obscure places;" that "they were mostly affairs ot the County meeting and local gathering;" and that thero is no reason why the estimate of the peoplo of Char lotto should bo "accepted by mankind." Wo will copy what Mr. Pollard regards as one of his strongest arguments: The most important fact in bis lifo which touches this question is ono but little known to readers, or that bas been slightly estimated by bis partial biogra? pher. It is that this man, for whom so much bas been claimed as an orator, sat for two years in tho Continental Congress, when the early questions of the revolu? tion were being debated, when the most inspiring themes were appealing to mind and heart-sat for these two whole years without ever venturing to speak onco to an assembly so well qualified to bear bim, if bc had indeed been a great orator, and so well disposed to entertain bim, if indeed n great reputation bad preceded him. If tho delegate from Virginia was really tho incomparable orator that bad inflamed the House of Burgesses at "Williamsburg, how could bo have remained for two years this figure? head in Congress, and that when ques? tions calculated to stir men's hearts to their depths required him to speak? It is tho quality of true oloqaenco that it cannot contain itself, that it dares all assemblies, that it recognizes tho variety and numbers of its audiences only to draw inspiration from them. Was Patrick Henry afraid of tho reputation he had made on obscurer occasions in Virginia? Did he fear to risk it before an assembly which Lord Chatham de? clared to exceed intellectually and parlia? ment in Europe? Wa8 bo another in? stance of tbat phenomenon which we seo so habitually in our meaner Congroes of to-day; men coming there with great local reputations, and with great expecta? tions of their constituents, and never being beard of afterwards? We will not pursue these painful, yet obvious and unavoidable surmises; yet certain it seems, if Patrick Henry bad been lite orator represented by his biographer, be would not, could not, have boen the silent, undistinguished, in fact, extin guisJted man be was in Congress. Patrick Henry bad sat in Congress from 1774 to 177G. Ho declined a re? election, along with George Washington, who bad been equally a "silent" mem? ber of this high assembly; bat for Wash? ington there was, of course, tho excuse that ho made no pretensions to elo? quence. If Mr. Pollard and the Galaxy will per? mit us, thero are two slight circum? stances which somewhat impair the force of this argument. Tho first is that Pat? rick Henry, instead of sitting two years in the Continental Congress, satin it less than two months, or, to bo exact, from tho 4th of September to tho 2Gtb of Oc? tober, 1774. Tho other circumstance is that, instead of nevor venturing to open his mouth in such a presence, he made tho very first and altogether tho most im? pressive and electrifying Bpoooh deliver? ed in that body. Bishop White, then a young clergyman, listened to it, and af? terwards gave a graphic description of tho appearance of tho orator, and tho marvellous effect of tho speech. Wo copy another display of Mr. Pol? lard's ignorance: Nono of tho utterances of an orator 8o famous and so modern survive; we have not ono of his actual speeches; there are no literary remains of the man; none of the words really and truly spoken by him havo como down to us, if wo may except a few detached sentences, of which the authenticity, as of a literal report, is not clearly avowed, or, if so, is essentially doubtful. It is altogether an exception? al caso in American history. Now it so happens that a whole volume of "Elliot's Debates" is occupied with tho d?60U8B?ou of the Federal Constitu? tion in* the Virginia Convention; and that Patrick Henry, who led the opposi? tion, arid Bpoke often and long* .is as fully reported as Mr. Madison, theleader of tho other side, or Mason, Marsha]], Randolph, Pendleton, the Lees, or any of that constellation of gifted men and skilful debaters. Tho groat part which Patriok Henry played in that remarka? ble assembly shows how ridiculous is Mr. Pollard's notion that he never dared to test his eloquence before competent judges. Chief Justice Marshall,- who knew him well, and bad grappled with him in debate, described him as "a gen? tleman of eminent talents, great influ? ence, and commanding eloquence " John Adams, who bad witnessed his splendid display at tho openiug of tho Continental Congress, and bad followed his subsequent career with closo atten? tion, said: "I have always considered him as a gentleman of deep reflection keen sagacity, clear foresight, daring enterprise, inflexible intrepidity, and unstained integrity." Jefferson, who hnd known him from youth and had heard him often, said that ho had never listened to such an orator, that bo spoko as Homer wrote." Ho described "tho poetic fancy of Mr. Heury, his sublime imagination, bis lofty and overwhelming diction." Similar testimonies could bo multiplied, but they aro not needed until Patrick Henry's great fame as au orator is assailed by a more competeut critic, thau tho blundering ignoramus who vents his detraction in tho Galaxy.
