MANrSCRIPT OF ARDERUS. 



Amnii'.'^ tiic irianuscripts inpscrvcd in 

 tlic pnbiic library at Lyons, in I'laiicc, 

 occurs a inedic'ai treatise in .Swedish of 

 the year 1412, in which the author, Jo- 

 lianncs Arderns, of ISlewark, has .speci- 

 fically d'*s('-ribed the venereal disease, 

 which was once supposed to be of Ame- 

 rican origin. 



MACPHEUSON AND MILTON. 



Os.siai) is t!ins characterized by tiie 

 French poet Le Briui :— 



Homere au soleil de la Grece 



Empnmte ses plus doiix ra>ons ; 



Mais Ossian n'a point d'lvrisse: 



la liine glace ses crayons. 



Sa sublimite monotone 



Plane snr de tristcs clnnats ; 



C ("it un long ora,s.'P qui tonne 



Dans la saison des noirs friniats. 



De manes, de fantomes joinbres 



Jl charfre Irs ailcs dis vents ; 



Et le souffle dcs pales ombres 



Kefii idit nienie Ics vivans. 



On the cnnlrary, M.llreton, a rreiich 

 critic of cniinrnce, wlwsc EUnviiis <^' 

 Lilnatiire display a comprehensive 

 r( adii I? and an nnprejndiccd tasie, has 

 awiirded to Ossian a i.reference over 

 Milton. There may be in tlii.s a loyal 

 deference for the taste of (he imperial 

 exile; but, ^\hen foreign critics conspire 

 to impeach n national verdict, surely it 

 desi-'vcslo bo repoiscd. In Italy the 

 jjoetrv of Macpherson is preferred to 

 Uie poetry of jVIilton ; and both poets 

 liave been trar.slated with e(|ua! teli< ity, 

 the Parudi.fo jicrdnto by Rossi, the 

 Fiiigal iim\ Tcmora by Cesarotti.
