POETRY

SONNET

(For the Lirerpool Standard.)

" In them bath he set a tabernacle for the sun ; which is as
A bridegroom coming out of his chamber."

The curtains of the east are drawn, and lie
Who rules the day, and glorifies the earth,
A bridegroom comes, in beauty's fulness, forth;
The heavens rejoice, and joy is on the sea;
Haste, Flora ! deck the bridal festival!
Open, thou waving grove! a solemn bower
For Hymen's rite; while the lark's weans swell.
Oh, Nature ! thou art glad at thy heart's core,
And deep delight is flashing from thine eye;
Spring;laughs at youth, and beauty human-born;
And summer—our magnificence to scorn :
Truth claims thy smile ; renew'd is thy first joy:
We, while thy balm from many a bud is shed,
Mourn that our early flowers of hope lie dead.

NOTICES.

Atlas to Alison's History of Europe.

By
_Alexander

•
Keith Johnson, F.R.G.S.- Edinburgh and London
W. Blackicood and Sons. Part 1., decoy 6mo. . .

The first part of this very neat publication contains six
beautifully-finished maps, viz. :—Paris at the Outbreak
of the Revolution, 1789 ; Map of the Netherlands, to
illustrate the Campaigns of 1792 to 1795 ; Battle of Je-
mappes ; Battle of Neerwinden ; and Siege of Toulon.
As a companion to the historian, it will be invaluable and
almost indispensable.

Brief Memoir of Joseph John Gurney, Esq. By John
Alexander, Minister of Prince's-street Chapel, Norwich.
Norwich : Josiah Fletcher, Upper Haymarket ; Lon-
don : Charles Gilpin. Bvo., pp. 72.
This is the tenth thousand of a brief memoir of a gen-
tleman, whoge philanthropic and Christian labours for the
benefit of his fellow-countrymen are well known, in con-
junction with those of his sister Mrs. Elizabeth Fry, and
with Clarkson, Fowell Buxton, and others, for the aboli-
tion of negro slavery. It is a most interesting and in-
structive record of a life well spent.

History of the French Revolution. By J. Michelet
Translated by C. Cocks, B.L. London : H. G. Bohn
York-street, Covent-

The first volume of this extraordinary and original
work, in an' English dress, has just been published by
Mr. Bohn, and will doubtless take its place as a standard
work in our literature. Its style is marked with all the
quaintness and force of Mr. Michelet's other works, with
occasional obscurity and Germanism. Much research has
been evidently employed ; and many incidents of the
eventful times and scenes misrepresented by preceding
historians, have been attempted to be truthfully brought
before the public.

New Brunswick; with Notes for Emigrants. By Abra-
ham Gesner, Esq., Surgeon. London : Simmonds and
Ward, 6, Barge-yard, Bucklersbury. _ Svo., pp. 388.

The author of this lucidly-written and instructive work
was employed for five years by the Government of New
Brunswick to make a geological survey of the province.
The opportunities of personal observation thus afforded
him, enabled him to make himself thoroughly acquainted
with the cliniate and the general resources of the country,
the manners'and habits of its population, and the claims
which it possesses upon the notice of the British emigrant.
He has introduced also an early history of the province,
an account of the Indian tribes, and a large mass of topo-
graphical and statistical information, embracing its tim-
ber trade, commerce, manufactures, shipping, agriculture,
fisheries, &c., and some valuable remarks upon its con-
templated railways. The work is one of great value to
the emigrant, the merchant, and the statesman as well,
who will find in it the observations of a practical man,
who has had opportunities of arriving at a correct and
intimate knowledge of the country, and leisure to form
