POETS AND POETRY OF AMERICA.

I UST published by CARY g. HART, Philadel-
- phia, The Poets and Poetry of America, with an
Historical Introduction by Rufus w. Griswold, in
large octave volume, handsomely printed on fine pa
per- and illustrated by portraits of Bryant Sprague-
Longtelow, Dana and Halleck, and beautiful
vgneue.
Ihis is the most valuable publication of the
son. No collection of American poetry has ever
been made at all comparable to his whether we re-
gard the completeness of the work or the taste dis
played in the selection. The work comprises srec-
tons from eightp-eight of our Poets whose produce
lions are preficrd by neat biographies; and in an
Appendix are contained selections from various Au-
ih"rs who, without pretending to the rank of Poets,
ha'c yet written occasional verses Where the poet
has published edition of his own works the seec-
tons are comparatively few hut where the author
has el his works axe ofhemseves the extracts
have been more volumnous. Tins is a praise onhy
feature, since preserves to collected form the
works OF Whittier, Spr4gue, and others. The long
est poems of Drake, SFrague and Whittier, appear in
TINS collection. We dismiss this national work with
the assurance that every American who loves his
countrys muse, will possess himself OF early copy
