The anniversary of the tutelar Saint of Ma

with unusual spirit. The brethren met at their
Lodge Room at an early hour, and after the trans
action of much interesting business, ,spartook of
an entertainment prepared for the occasion, by
MIR. William Baskin, in his usual superior style.
The occasion was distinguished by that brother
ly feeling which should ever be conspicuous on
the assemblage of the craft. The members Of
the Lodge were joined by number of resident
and transient Masons, and after enjoying the
sumptueus Refreshments" and singing several
Masonic Odes, the party separated in good feel

an extension of those pure feelings fbrotherly
love and charity for which the Masonic faternity
should ever bedistngushed.

POETS AND POETRY OF AMERICA.

lust published by CARY s. HART, PhiadeI-

Historical Introduction, by Rufus w. Griswod, in
large octave volume, handsomely printed on fine pa
per, and illustrated by portraits Of Bryant Sprague
Longfellow, Dana, and Hallcck, and a beautiful
vgnetie.
This is the most valuable publication of the
son. NO collection of American poetry has ever
been made at all comparable to this whether we re-
gard the completeness of the work. or the taste dis
played in The selection The work comprises selec-
tons from eightp-eight Of our Poets whose produce
lions are Pret'csd 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; but where the author
has lett his works tot ofhemseves the extracts
have been more volumnous This is a praise " orthy
feature since preserves to in collected FORM the
works of Whittier, Sprague, and others. The long
est poems Of Drake, SPrague and Whittier, appear IN
this collection. We dismiss this national work with
the assurance that every American who loves his
countys muse, will possess himself of an early copy
