POETS AND POETRY OF AMERICA.
UST published by CARY & HART, Philadelphia.
y The Poets and Poetry of America, with an His
torical Introduction, by Rufus w. Griswold, in one
large octave volume, handsomely printed on fine
paper and illustrated by portraits Of Bryant Sprague
Longfellow, Dana, and Haleck and beautiful
vignette
:" 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-
gard theoGsaleteness of the work or the Taste dis
played f1ection. The work comprises selec-
tions from eghty-eight of our Poets, whose produc-
tons are prefaced 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
published an edition Of his own works, the seec-
tions 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 preserves for us 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 country's muse, will possess himself Of an
early copy. Saturday Post.
