Whilst we are willing TO admit, that the COM
Plment is we'll deserved by Mr.. Clinton, We
cannot but smile when we remember what are
its objects. 1t is a matter of decided impor-
tnnce, that the friendship and influence of Mr..
Clinton be obtained TO secure the election of
General Jackson, and fhe vote of New York
| 10 effect which, Mr.. Clinton has been assailed
by host of ofsycophants ard 0attcrers, and at
last Stephen Simpson has been ordered to sing
poetry in his ears. Whether the bait will take
or not,we cannot tell, but VIC have too high an
opinion Of Mr. Clinton's character, to suppose
Tor moment, that he can be won by the arts
OF sycophantic and hypscritical band of po-
ltical rhymers. A few years since, Simpson
was ono Of the bitterest opponents Mr.. Gin
ton had.

which, of course, is devoted to the interests of
General Jackson. In late number of that

NE IF-I-!CiN ISLAND.
There are but few persons, having relish for
poetry, who have not, at one time or another pc
rused and admired some of Montgomervs proeluc
lions. The inspirations Of his muse have ever been
Of the most soothing and harmonious character
possessing all the charms of natural imagery, orr
ginal conception, and mcllihuous versifcalion.-
He has written many small poems of superior merit
and exquisite beauty but the one of greatest eX-
tent, which established his name as a genuine son
Of Apollo, "The World before the Flood -
In the management and execution of that excellent
poem, Mr.. Montgomery displayed all the resources
OF rich and fertile mind, verdant with the fruits
OF an abundant and sparkling Imagination, and
stored with the nob!est and most eloquent thoughts
Fearful OF his own powers or doubling their pro
per appreciation by the world, he has suffered but
little from lis pen to appear before the public
since that period Ii is fact deeply TO be lament
ed, that the intellectual capacities of most modern
authors seem to have degenerated after the appear
ance OF their first productions Instead of Their
minds becoming expanded and strengthened, they
are contracted and enervated, and age, in quench-
ing the wildness and fire youth, fails to replace
NAS
To what causes this truth may be attributed, we
are inadequate to EXPLAIN unless the panegyr.cs os
the world in the FIST instance are more lavish than
in the second-or that The mind gathers its wealth
Of intellectual blossoms in tbe s. blooming, and
depends too confidently upon the fruits Of an;cipa
ton tor future harvests. Moore's Anacyeon and
Laa Rookh are his best productions; Byr0n's IN

CampheiFs Pleasures Of Hope Is brilllan. reality,
which has been succeeded BY nothing but shacowy
dreams Thus It IS with most Others, and this cir
cumstance may be assigned as a reason Why Mr.
montgomery has torborne for 50 long season to
ge-appear before the public in the hazardous char
ac'er Of an author and poet. But to prove tha,

tory Of two BIRDS notwithstanding all the fabulous
practices that have been attached to their habits,
| but in this instance have been mistaken. Mi.
Montgomery has thrown SO many deep and salutary
| reflections among such beautiful poetry that We
have been interested in the lives of these two Peli-
cans, although they lived for an hundred years in
very pleasing and profitable manner. The appear.
ancc oftle birds and bees is finely touched
From how'r to how'r, where wild bees flew and
sung,
As countless, small, and musical as they,
Showers OF bright hunlinns birds came down and

Time winds on in its devious course, one age
1 sinking in the bosom of another; islands and con
tnents gradually creep above the ocean, and are in
hablted by all kinds Of animals save rational crea.
lures. These eventually discovered in barba-
rous state, horribly vretched, and scarce removed
! t!om beasts Why the author has chosen man, in
I SO corrupt condition, for the exhibition of his ia
Tents, may, perhaps, be ascribed to his design Of
being perfectly original, having an ausion to sa-
wage countries The only joys of mother are
2-de TO arse from the caresses and prosperity Of
her children, whilst the father is represented as
considering her rather as his slave than companion
Several interesting characters are now sketchcd
| with a powerful hand, and the author proceeds to
| moralize upon the changes oflife
| " Life is the TRANSPORTATION of soul
! through various bodies, various states ofbeing
| New manners, passions, tastes, present in each,
In nothing, save IN CONSCIOUSNESS, the same;
| infancy. adolescence, manhood age
| Are always moving onward-always losing
/ Themselves in one another; lost, at length,
| Like fluctuations on the strand of DEATH"
From infancy to boylool, from boyhood to age,
with al their accompanln ing feelings, hopes, and
dlsappoinnents, and with all the metamorphoses OF
time, pass in review before him, and are beautiful
y il"sTatcdin these pages
"Thcy were, thay were not-thcy lad li,'d and

The author t!.cn gives dissertation on creeds,
and enters into metaphysical dogmas, which vii!

/ other passages. The work finishes with the de
scrption Of grandfather and his grandchlld, who,
! without the aid Of others, are taught
g 10 look through nature up to natures Cod"
and induced, from inward adnonition alone, to
worship an unknown Deity. This poem, through
