SECOND TALK. (At Academy of Music, New York, 1882. ) mWENTY-FIVE years have lapsed again, since at -- the order of this Society, I spoke before your convention of the Literary growth of the previous quarter of a century : and now when I ought by the privileges of age to be a listener and not a talker I am called on to add twenty-five more years to that tale of Letters, and to com pass the whole story within a quarter of an hour. I cannot do it : I cannot put the vintage of half a century into a... quart-flagon. No man can. I can only give such glimpse as you and I and all of us might have, if whirled at railway speed through the pleasant interval of Letters stretching from the year 1832 or thereabout to our date to-night looking out with swift glances upon a few salient TWO COLLEGE TALKS. 193 objects, and at the end of this whirl of vision hav ing only a vague sense (perhaps sufficient for such a time of jubilee) of the drift and trend of the In terval we had hurtled over. I seem to see far away about the time your Association was founded in the wilds of Central New York bright young fellows, by the light of whale-oil lamps, and seated on hard-bottomed benches regaling themselves with the Dandyism of Bulwer s Pelham, and wondering overmuch at the versatility of parts which could achieve a History of Athens, and set Kienzi upon his legs amidst the turmoil of decaying Home, and put color and pulse and passion into the dry bones of Richelieu.
