Our .Minister at London.-Mr. Bryant, editor of the N Y. Evening Post, is ir England. In one of his late letters, published in the Post is the fol- lowing passage:
 "I cannot close this letter without expressing my regret that MT. Polk should have made such an appointment as that of MT. McLane to represent the government of the United States in this coun. try. It would have been much better to allow MT. Everett to remain. if he is willing, as suppose he is. In regard to political opinions, there is not much to choose between Mr. Everett and MT. Me- Lane; or rather, the advantage is on the side of Mir Everett, inasmuch as his opinions are frankly declared. In point of character and capacity, Mr. Everett is mitch before the man selected as his successor. Mr. Everett is in much favor with A. mericans who visit this country. He is extremely friendly and oblging. and oinitsn no opportunity of doing them service"

Dickins0n's P0en,s.-We have been favored by the author with very beautiful little volume of Poems, entitled, "The City of the Dead and other Poems. By Andrew Dickinson
 Most effectively has the poet accomplished the object for which the chaste and elegant effusons of his Muse have been poured forth, in no unharmo. nious numbers. In the classic language of the im- mortal BEArr1E, that object is thus expressed:
 "At lucre and renown let others aim;
 only wish to please the gentle mind, Whom Natures charms inspire, and love of human
 kind"
 It sends thrill of indescribable delight through all the faculties of our mind, and fills our heart with unutterabe joy, to know, to perceive, and to feel the influence of talents of high order, thus consecrated to the of morality and religion.
 Although we are no enthusiast, and not in favor of unreasonable and extravagant compliments, yet we must say, that Mir. DICKINSON s Poems, wheh- CT we consider their style, their language, their sentiment, or the melody and harmony of their versifcation, have as few imperfections as many, even of the most precious gems of the Tyre of Genius, with which we are acquainted.
 MT. DicKlNs6N is native of this town, (Litch- feld.) Few places have produced an equal num- Der of gifted poets. The names of P1ERpoNr, SMITH, BROWN, J, P. BRACE, WARD, WADs- WORTH, K1LBoRM, DICKINSON, and others, will long be known as worthy of place among the fa- vorite " sons of song." Here too the Harp of an OSBORNE resounded amid our rural hills and groves, and sunny landscapes.
 In conclusion, we cfeerfully recommend this little volume to every lover of refined taste, and pure and wholesome sentiment.

The Title of the Work is as follows:
THE PICTORIAL HISTORY
OE THE


AMERICAN REVOLUTION;
With an account of the Early History
of the Countrywide Constitution of the
United States, and Chronological Index;
illustrated with several hundred engra>
wings.
aJ-ll is the determination Of tho pub
fisher to spare neither pains nor expense
to make this work perfectly acceptable to
every family throughout the entire coun-
try. 1t will be found the mos, attractive
aud cheapest ever presented to the patron
aye Of the American people. The pre-
paration of the work has been at ended
with great labor and expense. History
requires distant eminence, from which
to take an impartial view of the charac =
Ter of the transactions which submit them
selves to the recording pen: but more
than hal(a century has now elapsed since
the colonists first asserted their ndcpen-
dence; and the generation, whose arduous
struggles achieved so glorious result,
has passed away 10 tie silent tomb.
Through the whole work, the editor
has aimed to do uslice without asperity;
to- applaud patriotism, but not to justify
its excuses; to condemn tyranny, but
not to overlook the virtues of many Of
its instruments; and to exhibit the kindly
prospect of the future more strongly than
the irritating aspect of the past. The
great interest that the bare mention of
such a work is calculated to excite, has
encouraged the editor to make it every
way worthy of a liberal patronage. An
extensive sale can only enable the pub
Usher to offer it al the low price proposed
