Sin WAI.IEn SCOTT


 "A star of the tlrSt magnitude Is settin, ->ln the literary horizon. The might, magician, who has called up So naA, delightful pagcants, has laid aside hI wand of power, and drawn around hlm the mantle of silence, to lie down fiji his last slumber. No one In an equal space Of time, has delighted more hearts wltha less production Of evil. No WIT ter may pass from the earth with d brighter fame and Il more uasallied re sret. As a narrative poet, he has rare : y been exeelled ;- poems in the Eng- lishslanguage, of their kind, can rival the Lay of the Last Minstrel and 1oke- by. As a prose writer he stands alone, the Shakespeare of Romance. Cervan- tes, LaSage, and Smollet, had longer. but not more certain or a brighter tame. His lavish hand has scattered the pearls of delight for thousands in both continents-his poetry has delight I cd without corrupting, and his romance amusedwithout misleading the heart.- His strains have afforded equal delight to tue inmates of the cottage, es to lords and ladies gay.' Other bards have their peculiar admirers, but Scott is the poet of all hearts. What Shaks- peare is in the drama, Scott is in TO- mance. The fame of both is universal. * with this ditierence--that while Shaks- peare is most praised, Scott willbe most srcad. He passes from the earth, but, like the setting sun, his glory remains. His day has been long and pleasant, but
 The Minstrel is infrm and old
 his harp strings sound no more, when touched by his aged fingers; and with Ossian he may say, ...The shadows gather around Balclutha.n His de- partuse wifi cali forth the sigi, of the maiden, and theregret of the student the tears of learning will be shed thick and fast over his bonored grave. and the tones ofbafds,willb be heard, pealing his requiem of peace.
