What new thought shall even Criticism presume
to utter of the gentle Bard ofqMetand melancholy
musings Cowper's Poems'-thev have lain TOO
long on every -table-have too long been the
delight Of buoyant Youth and tagging Age-,o rem
der lolerabe al this day disquistion on their
peculiar exceencies. Solace of the invalid and
charm of the family hre-side whe, intellectual
circle in Saxendom Gas Carlyle has i,) has not
already been soothed and deig hted by its admira-
bic though simple pictures We might as well
assume to crticise the Psalms of David or The story
of Ruth.
The Edition before Us is among the most credita-
bic specimens of American book publishing we
have ever seen. he Illustrations are very well.
butthe eterpress is better, and the paper the best
we have ever seen in an American book. If our
publishers would but the advantage ofissuing
more books in style as rich as this-rich not in
CANDY embellishments but in substantial merit-we
are sure the discernment and appreciation of the
public would ensure them liberal reward.
The BosToN MISCELLANY, November 1872 Vol ii. No. s.
Braabory L Soden, IN Nassau-sreet.
This is very fair number Of the Miscellany,
though containing less of the highest meri,
than some previous issues. The Cry Of the Hu.
man BY Miss BARRETT, one of the most original
and powerful British poets of the present day, is
the most striking feature Of the number. The
Death of Napoleon is the subject of Poem by
A. H. EVERETT, and Mr.. w. A, JONES contri-
butes notice of the Life and Adventures OF
Philip Quarll written in the same spirit of nice
criticism and evincing the same familiar and fond
acquaintance with old English Literature which
have formed prominent attractions in his former
magazine papers. Prof. Ingraham Poe Miss
Hewitt, Mrs. Clavers, Mrs Rockwell, Dr. Par
sons and G.. +. Powell arc the other contributors
% BENrLEY's MISCELLANY, for October, has
just been rc-published by Mr.. Mason. 1t is well
filled with amusing matter. This Magazine
never special favorle with us-especially since
we have Blackwood and the Dublin University by
its side. The present number seems to be rather
more interesting than most of its immediate pred.
ecessors-but still contains very little that reaches
the highest literary standard. Richard Savage,
(con,nued) The Second Stage of Mrs. Ledbury's
Grand Tour, A Campaign with the Christmas and
half dozen tales of various make up its con,
tents.
