English Songs and other small Poems. By Bar- 

 ry Cornwall.— This a volume filled, even to over- 

 flowing with exquisite things. No living writer 

 has been visited by more delicate fancies, and de- 

 lightful thoughts, and tender sentiments, than Bar- 

 ry Cornwall. ***** We could li:ilf fill our pa- 

 per with prettincsses, of almost every kind and 

 degree, from the volume ; but we must restrict 

 ourselves to a few. There is nothing in Herrick 

 more exquisite than the following.— i-ojif/o?! Lit-

SPRING. 

 When the wind blows 



In the sweet losc-tree, 

 And the cow lows 



On the fragrant lea, 

 And the stream flows 

 All bright and free, 

 'Tis not for thee, 'tis not for me ; 

 'Tis not for any one here, I trow : 

 The gentle wind bloweth. 

 The happy cow loweth. 

 And the merry stream floweth, 

 For all below ! 



O the Spring ! the bountiful Spring I 

 She shineth and smileth on everything. 



Where comes the sheep ? 



To the rich man's moor. 

 Where cometh sleep ? 



To the bed that's poor. 

 Peasants must weep, 



And kings endure ; 



That is a fate that none can cure ; 

 Yet Spring doth all she can. I trow ; 



She brings the bright hours. 



She weaves the sweet flowers 



She drdsseth her bowers, 

 / For all below ! 



Q the Spring, &c. 



to sit three hours, without movitjg, on a hard oak 

 board four inches wide? It is perfect torment.

REV. h. WITHINGTON — ON COMMON

 The form of our school houses bas had no in- 

 considerable influence in sinking the- character of 

 our schools. Whoever has travelled through our , ., , , , ,

 were pens erected for certain greedy animals, 

 whom we feed to eat, or whether tbey are semi-

 certain ingenious architects to be inconvenient as 

 possible, and certainly Robert Fultpn never bit 

 his object better. The seats are narrow, the chil
