irruption of barbarism. It was out of these factious elements, these bitter strifes, that Mr. Wilder issued a representative, and a faithful and honorable career he led at the beleaguered capital. The art of speaking must be acquired early, or not at all, in a distinguished form, and Mr. Wilder did not seek much eminence, and he was perhaps too critical and knew too much to attain the abandon of a public speaker, who is lost if he stops to think, and can only control others when he seems to los...e himself. But socially he was strong, his manners sincere and unaffected, and his principles and his fidelity gave him influence and bound friends to him with " hooks of steel. " His reading was wide and cultivated, his memory retentive, his judgment sound and discrim- inating, his colloquial gifts delightful. His health was not equal to the contentions of the most contentious of States. He returned to Rochester, and the Republican party took him up, and he became Mayor of that most princely of cities by a vote that attested the cordial attachment he was capable of inspiring, while disarming envy and enmity by a disposition that never asserted itself in disparaging comparisons with other men's talents or humbler fortunes.
