From the Londok Courier. Mi. FOX Was undoubtedly one of thegreatcft men this country hath ever produced—he poflefT cd genius, political eloquence almelt without an equal, and knowledge various, deep and extensive—his command over a popular af fcnfbljr was astonishing ; with the disadvan tage of a voice, at times difeordant, his elo quence was irrcfifliblc—it was vehement, it was dignified, it was at times sublime—it toufed the most flujgifh, it warmed the cold, est—it was a tomnt Co impetuous, that it hurried and swept along his hearers in fpito almost of tbcmfelves. His miad had avail, nefs, an extent, a grasp which took in at •re view the whole of a fubjtft—he saw with a glance the weak arid the strong parts ol his antsgonift's position ; he had great clearness of conception and arrangement { he had more than any other man the faculty of fimplefying the mod abstruse derails, and of analyting the molt complicated. Whilst ha hud a lllength which made him able to con tend with the molt powerful, he had a plain- t nefs of roafoning w hich made him intelligi ble to the commoueft understanding: he had a peculiar method of iatpeeffing any favorite point. If he saw. and he saw in a moncnr 9 JtfjTrhe dirt View m which he had placed it* had not been attended with the dtfired ef fect, be produced it in another (hape, and another till he had finally fuccteded : Ho had great dexterity in debate, and knew better than any man how to improve his advantage over an antagonist who had left himfclf open to attack. If he hid less fplcndor, Id's richness of imagery, less pro fufioncf metaphor, less poetic fife than Mr* Burke; if he had less elegance, less copi oufrrcfs than Mr. Pitt, he had ftrongcr rca foning powers, he bud more mind, than either of them. It has been affirmed, incon. ftderately we think, that he was too litrl# solicitous, too catclcfs of his language ; his language, however, would always (land the tell of the molt critical examination) it was the Left adapted to the expreifiion, of the particular idea or meaning he wished to con. vcy ; it was pure, unadulterated English If hs did not poiTefs the wit of Mr. Burke or Mr. Sheridan, or the sarcasm of Mr. Pitt, he was not deftitut of cither of those qualities, but he really employed them. He seemed te disdain the idea of fretting his antagonist w ith a feather, when he could knock him down with a club. He had an astonishing memory. Often after a debate of many hours have we heard him reply to the arguments, of every speaker on the op pofitc fide, not only in the order in which they spoke, but in the order in w hich they arranged their arguments. His manner, if not graceful, was peculiarly imprclfive.- He animated the hearer, because the hearer saw he was animated himfclf. His voice, though flirill, aflifled wonderfully in roofing and fixing the attention of the house. In the heat and ardor of debate his eye was peculiarly commanding. He was always grcaicft in reply.—it was then, when so hard prdfed and assailed by his antagonists, that all the man was routed, and all the powers and faculties of his great mind were brought into adien. It was when he turned upon bis purifier# that he became mod formidable, St loth the chafed lieu Upon the daring hantj/nan that hat galled hint, Then makes him nothing. He had one advantage, and a great ad vantage it was, over bis iiluftrious antagon ist, dial he had a mare intimate acquain tance with men and things—that he had a deeper knowledge of the world, had had more familiar converfc with mankind, and had studied more deeply th« human charac ter. Mr. Pitt had never the time to make mankind his study—he pafifed through none of the istermediatc gradations and steps which ftatefrncn generally pass through—he was elevated at once to the highest ftation— it was but one step from the college to the cabinet. He was raised to the government of a great empite, when all the knowledge he had of the manners, habits, passions, and prejudices of mankind had bees derived from bocks. Engroflcd inceff.mil/ from his youth to hi* death by the duties and details of his official situation, be was forced to set mankind too much through the mist of offi cial reports. Many men ptffeffed as intimate an ac quaintance with the claflkks as Mr Fox, but no man was more conversant in ancient and modern hiitory. He is said to have devoted some of the left years of his life to a hiftory of the revolution of i£BS—a work which is >at wanted, and which no man was fw qualified to undertake. We fear it is left Ui.fi nivhed. Os his temper there is but one opinion—he had much kindneft, mveh good will; hit facial difpsfiuon and the plcafar.try of hit private conversation arc umverfally acknow ledged. He derived no flight advantage from the contrail which his friends drew be* tween him and his great antagonift —ther* was said to be more of bumanne/t , if w*
