HARPER'S MAGAzINE.--The number of this
magazine for May, closes its fourth year, and
completes its eighth volume. From the de-
struction of the immense establishment of the
Harpers by fire, some time since, few of the
later numbers of the magazine have been infe-
rior in point of typographical execution; but
with the present it is restored to its former ele-
gance. We notice among the contents of the
present number, another paper from Abbott
on Napoleon; story by G. p. r. James, four
additional chapters of Thackeray's Newcomes,
and variety of articles, solid, sentimental, and
humorous making the whole unsurpassed by
any previous number 1t may be found at L.

And made me dreamer even when child
And still the blue mist DER that valley
Floats in the summer time, as when we strayed
Through the old paths, although upon our brow

And still the flowers loved spring fresh and fair
