Show Ireland's Ort Orator. To read Mr. Henly'a speech of the samo day Is to get but the ghost of a notion of Mr. Ilealy's really wonderful gifts of oratory. Ho Is to-day tho most brilliant speaker In the House of Commons. Com-mons. Ho hns not Sir. Hedmoud's grace and polish; ho has nothing. Indeed, In-deed, In the nature of cither. Hut his attack Is cruelly effective; ho never spures either bis nominal opponents opposite op-posite or his real ones sitting around him. Ho Is the only sardonic speaker In tho House. Thero Is u grlmncss, n constant ring of challenge that Is repellent re-pellent or attractive as you aro the object of bis uncharitable attention or merely the delighted detached observer.
