WASHINGTON IRVING Honored, for ever honored
be the name and thrice honored the that bears it,
Associated with best and brightest recoectio
Of the pure well of English unde filed !" the pleasure
and instruction afforded by perusal Of the wri-
tings of Irving, will be remembered with delight to
the latest moment of our lives Nor are we singular
in these feelings hundreds Of thousands feel as we
do on this subject Hundreds upon hundreds Of
thousands in all parts Of England and America,
speak OF Irving in other terms but those of graft
tude and admiration and millions yet unborn shall
swell the paeans to his praise. Whilst he with that
true msdesty inseparsble from true genius, bears
his blushing honors' meekly, and almost uncon-
scieusly living in retirement, daily worshipper at
below, his is the
Harvest or a quiet eya
That broods and feeds ON its own heart"
And this is the man who has been made the subject
Of attack by some Of the small fry hterateurs that
Strut and fret their hour upon the scene,
And then no more"
But such is the order Of nature and must not
plain. The meanest insect that doth buzz and hutter
in the sunshine for has the power to sting
the most noble of God created beings. But Wash
ington Irvngs sleep VIII not bs the less sound,
his fame tho bright and pure because these ephe
neral creatures select him their target malgni-
ty, ignorance, brutality, and folly like Death, all love
a bright and shining mark. and in Washington Irving
they choose the brightest the literary annals Of the
country contain. And they acted thus, we suppose,
upon the principle Of the poor wretch who fired the
Ephesian dome, and like him, their names will only
be remembered to be despised and execrated.
