The barbarous custom of compelling Witnesses

on one of the Ferry Boats plying between Ncwfofk

had done so hitherto he had been compelled to leave
his business and spend week ut the County Court to
give testimony against the rascas without any suostan

- POgNs BY WILLIAM ELLEM IhANNlN"'
Second Series is l2mo of 100 pages just issued by
Munroe & Co Boston. There is much Poetry in it, and
some bad verse also Claiming has much of the Poet
fire and more than a Poets way wardness There is
hardly piece In this volume that has not merits.
but most Of the poems have faults also. Here is rather
favorable but Characteristic specimen:
THE ARCHED STREAM.
Ir went within my Utmost heart
The overhsngng Arch 10 see,
The liquid stream became part
Of my internal Harmony.
So gladly rushed the full stream through
Pleased with the measure of Its flow,
SO burst the gladness on the view,
II made song Of Ninth below
Vet gray were those ocrarchng stones,
Aud sore and dry the lrinsng grass.
And mournlul with remembered tones
That out OF Autumn's bosom pass.
And over it the heavy road
Where creaks the vain with buidened cheer,
But gaily from this low abode
Lespt out the merry Brook so clear.
Then Nature said My child to thee,
From the gray Arch shall beauty flow
Thou art pleasant thing to me,
And freely in my meadows so.
Thy Verse shall gush thus freely on
some Poet yet may sit thereby.
And cheer himself within the sun,
My Life has kinded in thine eye.
