Jq erery cloud that hid the seitiHg si1i
saw its long trains OF youths and maidens lair
sweep ike a sunlit stream. along the streets
Saw its cs,hedrals vast It's palaces,
Its rnarts o'erladen with the Indies spoils
Its galieys rocking ia the crowded bays
Heard It's loud hum By day, its airs by night
struck from guitars, that guide the busy feet
Of rosy youth across the springng ground
Methinks the moon shines brighter on seville
And every star looks larger for mere JOY
And now turn to the other side Of the picture ia the
reply of Calaynos
Or did she tell how Sloih and Beggary,
Closely attended by their handmade Vice,
stare with lack ustre and ierOcious eyes,
Into the porch Of every palace gate
How Want creeps forth At night, with iotterhg pace

The second volume of Putnams elegant edition
Of Irving is before us. The Sketchboo purely elias
sic and beautiful AS is s language, seems TO read even
more refreshingy in the present choice getting up.
1t is needless to refer the work tse-or who that
reads at all has failed to make acquaintance with It's
pages The exquisite sketches OF The VIE, the
Broken Heart and Rural Funerals have been an
utferdnoe and consolation to many heart and they
will not soon cease their mission. Kip Van NlhAle
and the Legend OF sleepy Hollow, have taken root
in the soil which produced them and the graphic pa

adopted as part of the records OF her homes. rev

tracts which had previously appeared IN the LHerMy
Gazette and bv the kind word spoken by the editor OF
that periodical and getting into lar Circulation
when my worthy bookseller iailed before the MIST
month was over, and the sale was interrupted
AT this iuncture Scott arrived in London called
~ him for help as was ticking in the mre and more
propitous than Hercules he put his own shoulder 70
the wheel Through his favorable representations
Murray was quickly induced 10 undertake 'he future
nublicstion of the work which he had previously De
clned A farther edition OF the hrsi Vo4ume was
struck OF and the second volume was put TO press ana
from that time Murray became my publisher conduct
nc himself all his dealings with that fair open and
liberal spirit which had obtained for him the welmer

OF their organized connection with the Church OF
