He ascended the steps with trembling ; he stammered a few commonplaces for a while, " his practised accents throttled by his fears, " and then his good genius came to his aid, and he poured forth an invective against slavery which filled his hearers with an unquenchable fire. * From that hour his course was clear, and he entered into the Fremont campaign with an inexpressible fearlessness and ardor ; he spoke from stump to stump ; he spoke by night and by day, and he spoke with a force of elo- ...quence that he has never since equalled. But oh, what a battle it was ! You have had a presidential campaign recently, which was milk and honey compared to that of fire and hail, in which a vast social system, the continuance of the government, the integrity of the nation itself, were at stake. * His first discourse after that was at the Wesleyan Univer- sity (Middletown, N. Y. , Aug. , 1856), where he had been invited to speak on " The Duties of the American Scholar. " " Gladly would I speak to you, " he said, "of the charms of scholarship, of the dignity and worth of the scholar — of the abstract re- lation of the scholar to the State.
