Sessions, of the Orphans Court, prothunotary of
the District Court, senators, members of the House
of Representatives-comm of the districts
of the Northern Liberties, Moyamensing, and we
hope for Spring Garden; and have lost South

held them. In the city the Wings have been

HISTORY OF WYOMING.

We rS'and that The History o.
Wyoming, written by the Hoo. Char
les MInrr, is IN the course Of pubIica.
ion. This work has been long looked
for, and its appearance viii be hailed
with joy. We are confident public ex
pec'a'ion will MOI be disappointed n,
man living could do better justice 10 tn,
subject than Charles Miner. Ho came
to this lovely Valley in early youth,
and mbIbed alike its beau'y-ils poetry
and its history. At that time, those
who had participated IN its bloody wars
and shared The perilt and 'hair breadth
.c'peS' of that dismal period were still.
living in the vigor of manhood. From
Them, Mr.. Miner derived not only
f'c,s, but the deep inspirations of lhos-
ryins times. The numbers of the
'Haze'on Traveller which appeared a
ew years since, furnish specimen OF
rscy style and absorbing interest of tn.
forth coming history. Those number.
by The way, should not have been dis.
continued, until each and every old
family in The Valley had received :
passing ootice. We hope the oiunl
cum dignitale, Of their accomplished &
author will again re- animate his plastic
pen.
The style Of Mr.. Miner is admir-
bly, adapted TO the public taste. HI,
youthful and mature efforts parlake Of
the same chastened simplicity. IL,
employs The old Saxon stand dialect
and mskes no effort at stilted rhetoric, =,
or new tangled modes of expressions.
His subject flows along like the simpl,
melody of The songs of nature, but al the
same time, with power that capt ivates
the heart. ln politics, we have never
agreed with Mr.. Miner, but we are
still ready 10 do justice to a man who
IS an honor 10 our Valley, and 10 The
literature OF The country. He ought t.
write more, for, like Midas, whatever
he touches, he turns into gold.
