HERMAN g DosorAeA.-The/ eene Of this
enchanting Poemis laidin one of the frna,l towns,
not far from the eaffera borders of the Rhine |:
the time, that cvcntful period, when the arms
of the French revoluti onifts were fpreatling de.
folation over the weitern parts of Germany.
1t is from this fource that the poem borrows iis
plot and much of its interef. Herman firR be-
holds Dorothea a fugitive, enveloped in the
underwriting ruin of the wac hence his fndden
determination to conduct her to his fathers's
dwelling, the ambiguity Of his conduct, and the
high qualities OF fortitude, courage and indie.
pendence, which diftinguifh her character.
Thefe great events, however, ferve but as the
background OF the picture. They raifc the
fubje6 above the dull tenour Of common life {;
but it is from that, it borrows its mott promi-
neDt features. Tie domefic virtues of the
mother, the affc6tionate v,hims of the father,
the frong coutraas betweenthe characters of the
Judge, the Paftor, and the Apothecary, furnif,
many Of its materials; and even the love of
Herman and Dorothea is not above the range
of ordinary life. e" 1t is not the enthufiaftic ro-
nance of love but the pure affection of the
heart, founded on mutual confidence, and in
unifon with every fccial duty, and every feel.
| ing that could unite two inexperienced but
powerful minds"
The poem is divided into nine Cantos.
cts plan is entirely Epic and not ORA
matte. No artful denoument, no crouded
incidents, 40 ftldden changes, nor any prolong-
ed fufpence. All is fimple, all is gradual, all is
direct" But though it be a production of the
Epic mufe, it has little of her ufual macnifi-
cence. 1t feems to have been written i'm one Of
thofe foft and melting moments, when fatgued
with the fplendor of her Encas and Achilles,
with the din of battle and the feats of chivalry,
me wilhed to tune her Tyre to more heart-touch-
ing themes.
OF the high reputation, which # has acquired
IN Germany, the proofs are fad to be numerous
The literary Journals abound in its praife. The
learned Humboldt has written an octave vo-
ume on the principles of tate, and throughout
the whole of it, has felc6ted this beautiful poem
to exemplify thofe principles. But how could
it be otherwife? when it is from the pen of
Goethe when it difpiays the fame fubtiIty
OF tho't, the fame tenderness Of feelings, witha
far more fortunate tale for its rehearfal, than
difiuguiih his celebrated "Sorrows of Wer-
ter !"

We received this morning letters and papers
from Holland of the 10th. Louis Bonaparte
was to return 20 the Hague on Sunday lan, pre-
paratory to the arrival of Bonaparte, who was
expected there yeterday. All the troops, even
thoie on the iea coat, have left Holland for the
camp at Zelt.
The Dutch papers are full of the preparations
of Pruiiia, and of the confident rumors of the
immediate renewal of hoftilities. The follow.
ing proclamation has been iTued by the Prunian
Administration of Elchfed and Erfurt. His
Pruidan Mdjeily announces in it his folemn de-
termination not to content 10 cede or exchange
any OF his provinces whatever =
PROCLAMATION.
The well intentioned inhabitants of the iyriE
dlction ofths department have been alarmed for
iome time by al forts Uf reports of the ceCion
or exchange Of their country. Though conyin.
ced of the falfehood of thefe reports, the pre-
lidency of the royal chamber Of war and do
mains, has thought it owed it to the fidelity and
patrotiln OF the inhabitants of the province TO
procure them an authentic contradiction OF the
iaid report, which might fet them perfectly at
cafe. 1t applied in consequence to the king,
and by an order from the cabinet, dated the
23th ult. and received to day, it is authorized
by his Royal Majely to- contradict in the rnon
folemn manner the iad fafe rumors, his Maisc
ty according to his own paternql expreiiions,
not having even in the mon diaaut manner the
idea of ceding or exchanging this Province or
any other whatever.
The undersigned presidency haftens TO com
muncate the paterna aaurances of the mon
arch to all his tubjeets, perluaded that they will
nh further lncredie their already proved patri-
olilm' aud dIiPoie them to every facnfice which
Ucumttances may render nece04ry Thou,b
