NOTICES OF THE PRESS.

The great Orations and Senatorial Speech of DANIEL WEBSTER, comprising Eulogy on ADAMS and JEFFERSON; First Settlement of New England; Bunker Hill Monument; Reply to HAYNE. Rochester: WILBUR M. HAYWARD, No. 4, Burns' Building, 2d floor, Publisher. Sold by MCMAHON, DEWEY, and WANZER, BEARDSLEY & Co., 1853.

The four Speeches, in the volume above named, are among the chief efforts of the mighty intellect of Webster. They were all delivered in the full maturity of his powers, and when the councils of the nation were rendered illustrious by the foremost men of the time. There were then other contestants for the palm of superior statesmanship-contestants they might be, but hardly rivals. It was a period too, full of promise, though environed with peril. The great men of the Revolution had passed away; an era had arrived when the firmness of the Constitution was to be tested. In this stormy and turbulent hour, when men failed before the unanswered and dangerous sophistries of the great Carolinian- when the eloquence of Hayne had left his opponents timid and irresolute; then it was that this the noblest speech of Webster's was made; fixing his fame, establishing his vast abilities upon an impregnable basis, and giving him a world-wide name.

Any memorial of Mr. Webster is valuable, and while his works are at so high a price and beyond the reach of the majority of his countrymen, it is gratifying to know that these four of his most remarkable speeches are presented in this compact form and at a cheap price. Mr. Hayward, the publisher, is a young man here, well known as a dealer in books. He is possessed of energy and character, which good qualities have obtained for him the copy-right of these speeches, when others, though backed with influence and capital, had failed. His copyright is exclusive, none other will be given, and he also has the privilege of illustrating the volume with a life-like steel cut of the "Great Expounder."

A ready sale and a large and increasing demand has opened up to him. It will be the step-stone to great success.-Rochester American.

THE GREAT ORATIONS OF WEBSTER.-Wilbur M.

It is elegantly printed, and contains the best likeness of the great Statesman we have ever seen. The copyright is in the hands of Mr. Hayward. It is only a few days since the work came from the press, and yet 7,000 copies have been sold.—Rochester American.

DURING the last winter and spring, when the friends of the great statesman, Daniel Webster, were urging his claims to the tardy justice of the Whig party, it was answered by the Seward men: "Mr. Webster is unpopular at the West. He cannot

obtain the suffrages of a single State west of Massachusetts. The publication of this volume by a western man and its immense sale in the Western States gives us assurance that its popularity is not confined to eastern latitudes, but that the whole country regard him as the greatest statesman and orator America ever produced. We wonder how Scott speeches would sell?

The publisher is a most enterprising and deserving young man. Success to him. [Day Book

THE LIFE, EULOGY and Great ORATIONS OF DANIEL WEBSTER, Published at Rochester, N. Y., by Wilbur M. Hayward & Co. Philadelphia: J. W. Moore, 193 Chestnut street.

** * Could our heart's desire be realized, an association of American patriots should be formed for placing a copy of this truly American work in the hands of every citizens throughout this Commonwealth and through the land. But as we have little expectation of any such mode of distribution, we shall take pleasure in doing the next best thing, which is to give the book the full benefit of the "world-wide" circulation of the American Courier. We do this with a hearty earnestness, not merely because the times require the dissemination of the sentiments and principles of this book, not alone for the high regard and the deep solicitude we feel for our national constitution and the institutions of the country, but equally so from the intrinsic merit both of the orations of the great statesman and the noble eulogy and life by which those orations are accompanied. Of the high standard of excellence claimed for the majestic eloquence of Mr. Webster, we have no occasion to speak, since the country has fully awarded his position; an award, we may safely say, that has met the concurrence of the civilized world. Nor do we except from this concurrence even of Austria itself; for the masterly exposition of American principies, in the Hulsemann letter, though humiliating to the overbearing arrogance of that power, has, nevertheless, commanded the respect and admiration of the Austrian nation. But though the greatness of Mr. Webster's intellect, the vastness of his acquirements, and the power of his oratory is universally admitted, the introductory portion of this volume deserves especial and particular commendation. The "Life of Daniel Webster," with which the volume opens, we have already commended, in another form, as embodying an account of his family, and such details of his domestic habits and personal relations, as are naturally sought for with eagerness, by those who have long and earnestly watched his public career. This desire is amply gratified; and so of the "Illness and Death," which succeeds. There are facts given here, in relation to the final dissolution of Mr. Webster, which are entirely new to us, much as we had heard and read of the "Closing Scene." The preparation of the inscription for his tomb, by his own hand, the minute disposition of his personal concerns, and the events, at the last eventful moment, when the fleeting breath in leaving its massive tenement, are all fraught with interest, as showing how fully his intellctual and moral faculties maintained their mastery amidst the failing resources of his physical constitution. Mr. Webster was truly an extraordinary personage.

But the crowning excellence of this volume is the "Eulogy," which so truly and so jnstly exhibits the man in all his greatness, the character in all it noble proportions. It furnishes the best estimate we have ever seen, of Mr. Webster. In a perspicuous and bold, yet strickingly polished style; it presents to the eye the noblest column in New England history, the granite monument that stands, and will stand eternally, associated with Plymouth Rock, Fanueil Hall and Bunker Hill. Associated with his name and touched with his eloquence, they are now doubly hallowed spots in the remembrance of his fellow countrymen, and in the admiration of mankind.

The Eulogy says, and we think justly, that as a forensic orator, there is no age, past or present, which can boast his superior. He unites the boldness and energy of. the Grecian, and the grandeur and strength of the Roman, to an original sublime simplicity, which neither Grecian nor Roman possessed. This is, we admit, a high wrought encomium, but let the reader turn to the noble specimens given in the orations that follow the close of this Eulogy, and decide if the praise is not just and true. We have much that we should like to say in commendation of this book, but can only at this time urge upon all to apply themselves studiously and earnestly to the profound thought and sublime sentiment of American patriotism, which this rich volume furnishes. The work is published with the approval of the family of the great statesman.-American Courier.
