Emerson's speech and John Brown's show that there is quite a similarity and contrast between the two, and it's born out of the justification for Brown's concern to free the Virginia slaves in the united states during his abolitionist movement.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

Ralph Waldo Emerson and John Brown's speech were both tendered to the court after Brown was convicted of treason. The speeches were both passing the same message. Emerson stated that Brown was a hero, patriotic, noble and unjustly accused as a traitor, claiming that was right.  

Emerson's speech was a sort of praises to commend Brown's movement to free the Virginia slaves thereby relieving his family of their grief prior to Brown's death on 8th November 1859; his speech commends that what Brown had done was good and that he did not commit murder or treason, instead, he wanted to free the slaves.

Brown, the abolitionist, stated the same thing by insisting that his punishment, death by hanging, was unjustly based on the fact that he was doing the right thing.

A comparison is seen between Emerson's speech and Brown---they both pass the same message that the freedom of slaves by Brown's abolitionist movement was right. The only contrast or difference in the speech is that Emerson's speech was directly focused on Brown and his movement in an appraisal form while Brown's speech was directed to the court to justify what he was doing as being right.
