MISCELLANEOUS. " The American Cyclopae- 

 dia " (D. Appleton & Co.), referred to last 

 year as approaching completion, has been is-

 iourney around the world. The plan, if fully 

 carried out, will not indeed add any laurels to 

 Mr. Longfellow's crown, but will make him 

 the benefactor of many, whose perception and 

 enjoyment of the beauties of poetry will be
