POETS AND POETRY OF AMERICA.

y The Poets and Poetry of America with an His
torcal Introduction, by Rufus w. Grswold, in one
large octave volume, handsomely printed fine
paper and illustrated by portraits of Bryant Sprague,
Longfellow, Dana, and Halleck, and beautiful,
vignette. 4
" 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
gard the completeness of the work, or the taste dis
played in the selection. The work comprises selec
lions from lightweight of our Poets whose produc-
tons are prefaced by neat biographies and in
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 edition Of his own works. the selecs
tons are comparatively few; but where the author
has left his works to take of themselves the ex-
tracts have been more vouminous. 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 n-Sat,oddy Post.

kinds, situated along and at short distances
from the coast, easily accessible, and there
fore command their market. The Sand
witch Islands produce sandal wood, sugar
cane, tropical fruits, and may easily be
made to grow cotton and coffee. For those
products they want in exchange flour and
timber, with which they are already sup
piled to a considerable extent by the Bril-
fish establishments in Oregon, and might
be to any amount were there only hands
to cultivate the soil. Then there is vast
fur trade with China and the East Indies,
to which we need only allude.
Were Oregon a barren rock like ST.
Helena, it would still be valuable as de-
pot for our extensive commerce in the Pa
ciic. But it has great resources within it.
self. 1t abounds in the raw materials of
commerce, and is adapted to almost every
variety of productive labor. The farmer,
the grazier, and the manufacturer may
alike thrive within its limits, and while they
are enriching themselves, be constantly
developing the capabilities Of the country.
We say the manufacturer, and this reminds
US to mention the numerous mill-sites which
are scattered up and down the rivers, and
which greatly enhance the value of the
territory. The British it is true have
shown their sagacity in occupying the best
of these, but we trust they are improving
them only for the ultimate benefit of their
rightful owners and future possessors.-
These combined advantages Of production,
situation and neighborhood, must one day
make Oregon a sort of depot for the COM
merce Of the world.
Is not this fair region prize worth con-
tending for, more especially when our
right to it is beyond dispute? We have
only to take possession formally and eff

OREGON.

The position Of Oregon is eminently ia
vorable to commercial purposes, as may be
seen by any one who will take the trouble to
glance at the map. To the south of it at
the distance of eight days sail, is Califor-
MIA, a country which abounds in cattle and
wheat, and in the vicinity are other coun-
tries which are filled with the precious met
tails, and whose shores furnish the pearl
producing oyst ais. The coasts of Peru and
Chill are within thirty days sail; the
Sandwich Islands are about the same dis
lance, and China and the East Indies with
in seventy or eighty days sail. The Pa
cifc Ocean which is the highway Of COM
munication with these regions, is hardly
ever ruffled by a storm. Should steam ma
vigation be resorted to, as on this and other
accounts it undoubtedly will be, the distan-
ces which we have estimated will be much
shortened, and Oregon brought within a
few days travel of the richest countries on
the globe.
The coasts Of Peru and Chill are inden-
ted with fine bays and harbors, and these
countries stretching in a long narrow line
along the ocean would necessarily become
commercial were they only supplied with
ship timber. They must be dependent on
any country which can furnish it. Oregon
abounds in timber Of the most valuable

AMERICAN NEWSPAPER PRESS.

Among the herd oriournals in the States
there are some, the reader need scarcely be
tod, of character and CT edit. From personal
intercourse with accomplished gentlemen
connected with publications Of this class,
have derived both pleasure and profit; but
the name Of these is Few, and of the other
Legion; and the influence of the good is
powerless to counterfeit the moral poison
of the bad. Among the gentry of Ameri-
ca-amongst the well informed and mode
rate-in the learned professions-at the
bar and on the bench, there is, as it can
be, but one opinion in reference to the vi
cious character Of these infamous journals
1t is sometimes contended-I will not say
strangely, for it is natural to seek excuses
for such dsgrace-that their influence is
not 50 g eat as visiter would suppose. |
must be pardoned for saying there is no
warrant for this plea, and that every fact
and circumstance tends directly to the OPP
posite conclusion. When any man of any
grade or desert, in intellect or character,
can climb to any public distinction, no ma
ter what, IN America, without first grovel-
ing down upon the earth, and bending the
knee before this monster of depravitv-
when any private excellence is safe from
its attacks-when any social confidence is
left unbroken by it, or any tie of social de-
cencv and honor is held in the least regard
when any man in that free country has
freedom of opinion, and presumes TO think
for himself, without humble reference to a
censorship, which, for its rampant ignor-
ance and base dishonesty, he utterly loathes
and dospises in his heart-when those who
most acutely feel its infamy and the re-
prooch it casts upon the nation and who
most denounce it to each other, dare to set
their heels upon it and crush it openly in
the sight of all men, then will believe its

JoHN c. CoLT.-Colt prevented his exc

O'Clock on the day on which he was to have
been executed he was married to Caroline
Henshaw. Ten minutes before the time
appointed for execution, he committed sui

small clasp knife. At the moment his
death was discovered, the cupola of thepri-
son burst in flames The greatest conster
nation prevailed. Those who were to wit
ness the execution escaped through the

been purposely fired. 1t is supposed that

fusion occasioned by the fire he would have
been enabled to effect bis escape.

INFALLIBLE CURE FOR THE TOOTACRE

On one occasion while laboring under
