Excerpt from Lecture on the Life and Times of Daniel O'connell: Delivered in the Academy of Music, New York, on the Evening of June 11, 1856

But he was listened to with profound respect. I heard him again at one of those Monster Meetings, as they were called, at Donnybrook. He had been preceded by several able and clever orators; for Ireland, and especially the City of Dublin, is seldom deficient in able orators. Wh en he spoke, it was like casting oil upon the troubled waters. Those who had preceded him had aroused and awakened the passions of that crowd of not less than two hundred thousand people. But when he spoke he stilled their stormy passions, and allowed them all to go home in good humor.
