ola work purporling TO baa poem, for CO.
Ply of which, presented TO us by the author.
Mr.. E. Ii. Smith Of Milwaukee, we can me-
yer be sufficiently thankful. AS Byron
burst upon and dazzled Great Britain in
Chide Harold, so has Smith suddenly rose
with, if possible. great efi'ulgencc, upon us
in Black Hawk. We regret that our
limits and want Of time prevent us from gra-
tfying the desire which we know our read
ers must feel to become fully possessed of
the beauties of this extraord nary poem, and
more particularly as il is their poet, and the
first one who has ever appeared in the dig
nifty of duodecimo. But with our limited
space we can yet extract suffic. Gently to
show our author as possessing the sublimity
OF M ltor, the burning deality of Byron, and
the beautiful dramatic power and imagery
Of Scott. But in attempting TO extract we
are at loss, nevertheless we cannot do in
Justice 10 the author, for such is the uniform
exalted character of the work that the most
random quotation must result TO the au-
ihor's everlasting glory. We cannot give a
detail Of the plot, which is singularly orig-
nal, but must content ourselves by gathering
few of the gems SO profusely scattered.
Our attention is first arrested by the follow.
ing:
.The star she had not followed long,
Ere it did linger down among,
The tops of trees until it stood,
Above an oak of buiging mood
Bullying mood , what refined and beau-
tiful expression for those unsightly excre-
SCIENCES, known as warts. To elevate, re-
fine, and spiritual:ze IS the mission of the
poet. Again the author alud'ng 10 our ca
pitol and the bloody scenes there enacted,
slys:
(which stood not then, not cen in embryo there
A witness to this tragcal affair."
Here is specimen of the Mltiaonc:
3sSous of the freel tried in adversely,
Known to be faithful! whose magnanimous hearts
Do palpitate in unison with my ownl
| IT'S not without reluctance, deepest grief,
That l, for once, to you should name retreat"
Hero follows specimen of the heroic:
"Now Black Hawk and his army are retreating
Henry and Dodge pursue with drums beating"
Smith, profiing by the melancholy exam
pie Of the seven cities Of Greece which quar-
relied over the birth place Of Homer, is de-
term,ned that no such difficulty shall arise
in his case, at least so far as the soil which
may claim the property of his genius is con-
cerned, for he says:
wisconsin, lovely land! full many year,
The prime of my best days, have spent here;
Have traced thy history, have seen thee rise.
Have viewed thy every change with hopeful eyes,
Have looked upon thee with look of love,
And for thy rising glorles fondly strove.
Dear unto me thy luxurious founders are,
And each illustrious first proprietor"
There, that will do, we guess, and if any
Flooding soul, not touched with the divine
spark, is disposed to complain that we have
occupied too much time and room, let him
recollect that it is our own Smith who
claims our attention. The age can boast of
bat one such poet; shall we so far neglect
our fame as people as not TO make the most
of himl We reckon noil

Of Sile from the system. faL Il
For its effect as preventive, reference may be
