LITERARY NOTICE.

The ODES of ANACREON, with the Fragments of SAPPHO
and ALczus, Literally Translated into English Prose. By
THOMAS ORGER, 14.14. D.
This NVork as far as we understand from those

S
more Ciiitilietert to ilidgitYpf lf,is merits, is a cor-
rect eclitlon. af;ANActtEoi, and of the remains of
A ern°
Ar.c.F.us. Mr. ()to:4En has annexed
at the 4.kiliorri'-of-the pages a literal translation of
the originals, in the same manlier aS CHRISTOPHER
SMARM-published the works of liortAcz. SMART,
indeed, gave also a rhyming translation of HORACE
same work, but, though a Scholar and a
Poet, his translation in rhyme is destitute of poeti-
cal spirit, and in" that" respect is little re-
moved from his prose. ANACREON has been
often translated by English Poets, and Mr.
MOORE'S verssion has generally been deemed
the best. Last year a poetiCal translation of
Anacreon with valuable notes, by WILLIAM
litcnAnnsosr, Esq. was published by the WinT-
TAKEns, and we regret thar the anther did not
live to enjoy his due honours as a scholar and a
Poet, for he died soon after the publiCa.tion. Mr.
Orger has rendered an acceptable service to the
learned world, in presenting to them this correct
edition of the gay Poet of Antiquity, and of the
spirited fragments .of SAPPHO and ALCZUS.
Mr. ORGER displayed great merit .as
scholar and Poet some years ago, in a trans-
lation of 0 Yin's Metamorphoses, and as
he is, understand, by profession, a teacher of
languages, the works which he has presented to
the-world, in our opinion, afford such decisiie
proofs of his competency.. for such a profession as
must ensure success, and excite no little surprise
that since it is highly probable that he must
have abundance of Pupils, he has still found
leisure for the toil and trouble necessary in this
and his other valuable publications. - •
