THE POET PERClVaL.
tor of The CHICAGO Tj7bune.

To the Editor of The CHICAGO T,7oun.:
SIR: In passing through the lead-region OF
Southwestern Wisconsin, I thought would
visit tho pleasant Village Of Hazel Green, whc1o
the poet petciyal spent the. last few years
OF his life, and where be now lies inferred, and
learn That facts T could concerning him. It
seems that, while making . geological survey
OF this region, lie Was taken sick; and, Dr.
Jenckes being sent for, it was not long ere thev
formed Il friendship which resulted in his re-
nora1 to the Doctors house. It was here un-
doubtedly that he whom George ". Curtis
called the greatest scholar OF tho age spent the
happicst period ot:lis life.
While visiting tho grave, whose only uonu-
mont 1s an evergreen tree, could not help but
recall the criticism OF James Russell Lowell
which was as unjust as it was uncallcd for. In
reading it. one cannot fail to SEQ that tho critic
is either willingly blind to tho merits Of tho poet
or unable IT, appreciate thcm. But, coming as it
does from Harvard Professor, is 1t to be won
dered at? Could he, OF would he ii he could
laud the merits Of b graduate Of .Yaln, who was
not only master Of eleven languages. but who
was familiar with tho literature Of each?
Perciral was not only 4 lingnist. bnt rna.he-
1natician and fine poet In fact, Nature had
favored him with the highest order Of
intellect, but had refused to grant with
it that quality of the mind without
to disadvantage; that is, feIf-confidence. it is
true he was reserved aud said l1ttIs before s:ran-
gers. But. in those long winter evenings, wh:1o
seated around the glowing hearth with chosen
few, he poured out his hanpcst thoughts,
couched in tho finest language. Wo are only
to record his uinutest sayings; to tell us Of his
wonderful memory, Nhich retained everything
he rcnd, or heard, or sew, as If bound III band
Of steel, ready to be called mp Mt o moments no.

I seemed to hear the songs she sang Of Jore,
Az oft my head was Idlio~ett on her breast;

Again knelt beside my humble bed,
Hhils loving lips upon ms HweetlJ SMILED;
