Singing -Sougs.-Coldsmith, we think.
says, that he seldom heard young man
attempt to sing in company without cx
posing himself; and it is too true, that
owing to various causes, for few people, if
any, can s'' G song without grieviny their
friends. Yet, songs are tho delight of man
kind. Among ruder nations they are EN-
ployed 10 animate heroism, or to express
sentiments for which common language is
too poor; and among people Of the great
est refinement they often make an impor-
tant part, or, as it were, the completion
and consunation, of social enjoyment.-
Old gentlemen who used to sing, are al
ways delighted to find that vocal music is
not yet extinct; old ladies, who used to be
sung to- at, or OF, are reminded by skill
fu voice of the days when they and the
world were young and happy; middle aged
people of the smallest pretentions to feel
ing, both men and women, love song :;
and the young, who love pleasure in every
shape, never object to it in this its most bar
monious and seductive shape Of all. In
fact, there is no country in which singing
IS not held in estimation.
