LITERARY NOTICE.

SHASsoSDALR. BY Emma D. y. hewitt Southworth, au.
thor Of Retribatoo, or the Vale Of Shadows" "Ds-
,srtsd Wife, 81. New York ID. Appleton Co, 30
Broadway. Philadelphia; George 5. Appleton, i6i
Chestnut street
We have read this volume, together with the
works Of its gifted author, with thrilling inter-
est and having in vain waited for the discerning
pen Of thu Lady Aristarchus Of the Era TO do It's
office, have judged it not presumptuous to utter
our own opinion Of its merits.
We are inclined TO express our shrewd con-
lecture that 1t was the authors design, in part,
to present an agreeable picture Of negro slavery
and IL 80. she has certainly met with excellent
success for the slaves, who are frequently intro
duccd In various scenes, are uniformly represent
ed fat and sleek, y and In every way after Henry
Clay's own heart.
We do not consider this work as common
novel but as fictitious narrative of rare artistic
merit; and it is this only excellence 30 seldom
found in any Of the species, that we design to
sneak of, and are fond to contemplate, as evincing
laborious thought united with exquisite genius.
Perhaps it's distinguishing Characteristic is the
brilliant Imagination which 10 richly gilds the
thread Of fancy. Whether in the description Of
female loveliness, Of the besuty or sublimity Of
Nature, Of Elyssn happiness, or Of mortal woe,
the picture Is ever one Of impressive and absorb
ing interest, most attractive with Its radiant
light and Its dark shade, depicted alternately In
gorgeous and in sombrs hues, and ever glowing
with On esrnsstness Of feeling, which transfers
the enthusiasm and animation Of the artist to the
mind Of the spectator, a. by some electrotypic
power Of its brilliant, selfsmittsd light At
times this radiance Ii dazzling and painful and one
averts his eyes from the glowing page, as from
the glare Of the MONDAY SUI but NOSE often 1t
Il soft aud mellow, yet glorious to behold, Is the
orb Of day, when sinking 10 his ocean bed, With

all the pageantry which surrounds his tropical
splendor.
We esteem the author also felicitous in her ar.
rangement The web Of the story, though com.
pick, is skilfuly woven, nor is the reader likely
10 entangle himself in q maze Of confused. dis.
jointed incidents, but ever and anon line an.
pears, pointing along the proper track to the right
denOuemlen,, where, when arrived, one reviews his
course with clear, distinct recollection. and
complacently remembers every premonitOn Of
the event. The characters designed are in gene
raj delinested with strict psychological accuracy
they are never degraded, but are sometimes un
duly exalted, both in language and in sentiment
a circumstance which, judging from two or three
pslpable photographed errors in the book, is in
common with them, the result of Over-hasty COM
position. Occasions are very sAilfully invented
for displays Of the passions, which are sometimes
made to act with painful intensity, that is not
only strikingly unreal, but also mars the de-
signed effect but emotions ofnffecou and rever.
'ence are called forth 10 a manner, at times SO
pathetic and at times so comical, with strict
and uniform fidelity to Nature, that We behold
in such creations the work of that exalted genius
which can thus revel in these extremes of feel
ing-the inspired alike of Nmnia and Thslia
There is yet another aspect in which this work
is meritorious-namely, metaphysical This
will doubtless seem strange word to mention in
connection with q romance but the rejecting
mind will nevertheless discover this unusual fea-
ture to be pleasant reality. The philosophic
current Of the authors thoughts frequently APP
pears in the uttersnce of theories not altogether
new yet strange in their novel form, often models
Of simple, sound and elegant argument, from
which most readers may Gull many rare gems OF
thought Occasionally, however, sentiments are
expressed ea1ea We hsrdss ihla< would sSSf;o I
with the I" form Of sound words !" but these de.
rive an apology from the malignant character of
the one who utters them, even as Milton has
rightly put words of horrid blasphemy in the
mouths Of fiends
We should have been well pleased to intro
duce a few quotations from so agreeable work
but the necessary brevity of this article forbids,
while we are also reminded Of the Spanish prov
erb-" Good wine needs no busho We trust
that its author will be encouraged by warm

DANIEL WEBSTER,

This Proclamation reminds us of two stories.
one Of Greek, the other Of American origin
A Greek Of small wit aud great connections
lost child His friends and relatives collected
in great numbers at the funeral; aud when the
corpse of the child WAS exhibited TO the audience
the polite Greek spologized for its size, and said
he was ashamed 10 show so small q child to so
great a collection OF people
The Yankee story runs thus
A man was breaking colt, and having tanned
him 80 that he would bear his rider, told his boy
to hide in the bushes and rush out when he rode
the colt by, SO as to practice the colt against sim
liar occasions, and teach it not to "shyn The
boy did as drected-turned his jacket over his
head, rushed out Of the bushes, and shouted at
the top of his voice. The colt shyed and threw
his rider, who jumped up, brushed his clothes,
put on his hat, and with an oath asked the boy
why he did that
Because you told me to scare the COLT said
the boy.
Eyes said the fallen rider "but there was
no use in making 30 big boo for so small colt"
