ABOUT BRYANr.--Bryant wrote Thana-
topsis in his nineteenth year. 1t was Of
fered for publication in the North American
Review, then edited BY Dana, the poet who.
discovering its great merit, deemed it could

The interest il excited produced sort of
epoch in the circle where it became known
"Dsna," says Grswold, "was informed tina.
the author of il was member Of the Massa-
chusetts Senate, then in session, and he
walked Immediately from Cambridge TO the
State House in Boston, to obtain a view Of
the remarkable man. A plain, midde-aged
gentleman, with busness-like aspect, was
pointed out to him; a single glance was suf-
ficient; the legislator could not be the au-
thor Of Thanatopsis; and he returned with

duction ofthe real author TO the public, how
ever, soon followed and need we doub, the
effect which was produced upon The youths

THE FIRST SAw-NlILL-The old practice
10 making boards, was TO split up the logs
with wedges; inconyenient as the practice
was, it was no easy matter to persuade the
world that the thing could be done ID any
better way. Saw mills were first used in Eu-
rope in the fifteenth century; but so late as
1865, an English ambassador, having seen a
saw mill in France, thought it novelty
which deserved particular description. II
Is amusing to see how the aversion to labor
saving machinery has already agita,ed
Eng and. The first saw-mill was establish
ed by Dutchman 10 1868; but the public
cutlery against the new machine was so
violent that the proprietor was forced to
decamp with more expedition than ever did
Dutchman before. The evil was thus
kept out Of England for several years, or
rather generations; but in l76s an nnlucky
timber merchant hoping that after so long $
time the public would be less watchluI Of
lis own interest, made rash attempt 10
construct another MILL The guardians Of
the public welfare, however, and conscien-
tious mob at once collected and pulled the
mill to pieces. Such patriotic spiri,
could not always last; ard now, though we
have not seen the fact distinctly stated
there is reason to believe that saw.m;lI,
are used in England.
