This is the most valuable publication of the sea-
son. No collection Of American Poetry has ever
been made at all comparable to this whether we re-
played in the selection The work comprises seec-
tons are prefaced by neat biographies; and in an
thors who, without pretending to the rank of Poets
have yet written occasional verses Where the poet
his published an edition Of his works, the selec
tons are comparatively few but where the author
has left his works to take Of themselves the ex
tracts have been more volumnous. This is praise
worthy feature, since it preserves for in collected
form, the works of Whittier, Sprague, and others.
The longest poems of Drake, Sprague, and Whittier
appear in this collection We dismiss this national
work with the assurance, that every American who
loves his countrys muse, will possess himself of an
early copy."-Sat,uday Post.
