Excerpt from The Compromises of Life and Other Lectures and Addresses: Including Some Observations on Certain Downward Tendencies of Modern Society

In issuing this volume of Lectures and Addresses the publishers are induced by many considerations to believe that they meet a requisition of the reading pub lic. Few writers in the last three decades have been more noted, few speakers heard by larger audiences, than the editor of the Louisville courier-journal. As the successor of Prentice, he carried forward the work of that eminent and brilliant man to yet further achievement; succeeding, before he was thirty years of age, in combining the newspapers of the Kentucky metropolis and in creating out of the union a journal of national influence and celebrity.
