Away it sped, softly and evenly, a liquid arrow through more liquid air, lessening with the sweetness it left behind it, hut fleeing leagues in seconds, and with no errand but to go on unaltered till it should die — and, behold ! on the track of it, with the rest of us, was gone the heavy-winged intellect of Webster ! We had listened with our eyes upon him. As all know who have observed him, his habitual first mark of interest in a new matter, is a pull he gives to the lobe of his left ear — as... if, to the thought- intrenched castle of his brain, there were a portcullis to be lowered at any sudden summons for entrance. The tone sped and lessened, and Webster's broad chest grew erect and expanded. Still on went the entrancing sound, altered by distance only, and changeless in the rapt altitude of the cadence — on — far on — as if only upon the bar of the horizon it oould faint at last — and forward leaned the aroused statesman, with his hand clasped over the balustrade, his head raised to its fullest lift above his shoulders, and the luminous caverns of his eyes opened wide upon the still lips of the singer.
