TIE FOREST STREAM.

by JOHN A. SHEA.
Bright stream of the forest
Unnam'd and unknown,
Thou shin'st not less brightly
In shining alone.
Smooth. calm, aud transparent,
Thou oldest along
To the old woods repeating
Thy myst'ry Of song.
Brigh, stream of the forest,
love thee full we'll;
Thou art TO my bosom
A soul and spell
When see thee fancy
Thou lookest on me,
With the beautiful sad4oSs
OF moonlight on sea.
Round thy spring on the mountain
TIL horizon was splendid,
Where all hues of the sunlight
Were gloriously blended:
But that summit where rested
The ornaments glory,
Had no voice for thy moral,
Nor ear for thy story.
From the pride Of that region
Built up in the skies.
Thou seekest this sileace,
This valley ofSishs;
Where the tempest expiring,
just mingleth its breath
With the dirge of the zephyr.
And sinketh to death
Here deep contemplation,
UndazzIed and calm,
Goes up as in Elah,
The prophets high psalm.
The wing of the spirit
l. peacefully furl'd
While thunders are rocking
The armament world.
Thus calm in humility,
Fearless and free,
Ny stream OF existence
Glides onward like thee
A type and a promise
Unyeifd and engraven.
OF It's ocean-ward path
To etcrnity's haven.

POETS AND POETRY OF AMERICA.

uST published by CARY & HART, Phiadel
a pha, The Poets and Poetry of America with an
Historical Introduction, by Rufus w. Griswod in /
large octave volume handsomely printed on fine pa
per- and illustrated by portraits of Bryant, Sprague-
Longfeow, Dana, and Halleck and a beautiful
vignete.
This Is the most valuable publication of the sea
son NO collection of American poetry has ever
been made at ali comparable To this, whether re-
gard the completeness of the work the taste dis
played IN The selec ION. The work comprises seec-
lions from eighp-eight of our Poets whose produce
Mons are preftcyd by neat biographies; and in an
Appendix are contained selections from various Au-
thors who, without pretending to the rank OF Poets,
have yet written occasional verses. Where the poet
has published an edition of his own works the seec-
tons are comparatively few hut where the author
has Jeff his works AXE of hemse the extracts
have been more voIuu'nous This is a praisew othy
feature, since 1t preserves 10 collected form the
works OF Whittier, Sprague, and others. The long
est poems of Drake, Srrague and Whittier appear IN
tins collection. We dismiss this national work with
the assurance that every American who loves his
countys muse, will possess himself of an early copy
