LITERATURE.

We have always regarded our sister state Con.
necticut the Parnassus of America, and she daily
affords us proof that we have not oyer-rated her,
We have read, with great delight, poem entitled
The .4ge Of Extraordinarily CARLOS WILCOX, of
New Haven. This author combines, we think, the
fire and imagination of MILTON, with the beauty
and sweetness of THOMSON. In his versihcation
there are faults, which attention and experience
will correct but the beauties of his poem so far
as wholly to disarm the power of
criticism. There is tale most beautifully inter-
woven in the subject, an extract from which will at
once delight our readers, and justify our own good
opinion. 1t is entitled 'CharkoHe and OruiAe,' and
the passage we select describes the return of Or
vile to his desolate mansion, after having buried
the mother of his children-the wife Of his bosom
sWhcn from the burial to his home retur'd
The broken-hesrted Orvile, and beheld
Around all still, all desOlate within
feeling of his utter loneliness
Rushd on his soul with overwhelming mower
Entering his door ungreeed--and unmet--
Missing HER face that always frightened quick
At his approach-nEn voice that sweeter grew
On the first presented, down at once,
As if all strength in moment gone,
He sunk, dissovng in a flood oil tears.
When, at his table, in HER wonted seat,
He first behed another-when he saw
The last, unfinished abors of her hand
Her needle, pen, and pencl--at his wish
Untouch'd, remaining just as left by hcr
And when he cast an eye upon her plants
Perennial, and her aromatic shrubs
In their neat vases, left unwatered long,
Dropping untmely leaves, and bghed buds,
His rising grief effort could suppress
If in his house, through its disordered rooms
He wandered or through alleys weedy grown
In his neglected garden-or along
The sylvan walks of her accustomed choice;
| At every step some object cafd to mind
Her worth, or her Affections and thus kent
Opening arrsh the wound within his breast
| The above extract is tender and pathetic in tn
extreme. To illustrate the powers of fancy will
which the author is gifted, we select the fosiowin!
simile:
| SIN his grief he seend
| Like the young tree how'd low as from its ton
/ Some strong hand tears away the clinging vine,
| Breaks by degrees the nnuncyable ties
| Ofbranches and soft tendris interwn'd;
/ But, when quite parted, rising, end despoicd
OF all its own, with all its borrowed bloom,
Standing in naked Loneliness subfnne.'
