Each night beside my troubled couch arises; The gods command me to get out of this
 And paddle of to nobler destinies.'' "O o monster!" cries the disappointed woman, {" No goddess is thy mother, nor no hunaan, But thou vast born out of the finty rock And fierce Hyrcanean tigers gave thee suckl Now, now, great Juno, see this savage creature; He don't exhibit one redeeming feature!
 found him poor and hungry as greyback, dined and wined and toasted him from qoay back Got up supper, fed his lousy crew,
 And heard his egotistic yarn clear through! You talk about obeying Jove's decree,- ~~ Flapdoodlel what pious man you bel

 MT. Vaill shows much judgment in ma. king his work short. While the poet may keep up the interest of his reader through many thousand lines, the poic will do we'll to stop at few hundred. Mark Twain would have made an infinitely funnier " Innocents Abroad, If he had made it in- fnitely shorter.
 The half dozen illustrations of this edi- tion are really capital. The eommingling of ancient and modern American" cos- tunes, millinery. &c.,, is admirably done, and the procession of the winds-the bluff old Boreas, the rheumatic Eurus and the rest-illustrates the subject better than any thing we remember in the text books.
