Excerpt from The North American Review and Miscellaneous Journal, Vol. 6 Further than this, he is thought by some to be a wild, luxurious bard, who is to pass through a generous and yet repressing culture, from the frolicks of blooming time, to a full, rich, and sober maturity-whose early licentiousuess shews a leaning alter the better afl'ections'-whose impo rity has its redeeming gracesp-whose errours deserve mer ciful allowances, because they are on the shle of sentiment and greatness. Now he is almost the last poet, for whom we should have thought of setting up the apology of a violent, overrunning nature. We have never lamented in him the oppression or waste of genius, nor the perversions of a fine spirit, whose abandoned gayety would one day mellow into warm-hearted cheerfulnees, and its voluptuous excesses end in singleness and purity of love. He discloses no warm and eager aspiring after something higher and purer, with a promise of lendingby and by to goodness, the graces and enthusiasm he had wasted upon vice. His mind never seems to be unconsciously wrong, from rapture, spontaneous over flow and impulses that will not be ruled. We can discover no depth in his contrition, nor desertion in his grief, nor involuntary glow and tenderness in his friendship.

Excerpt from The North American Review and Miscellaneous Journal, Vol. 9 We have never given an account of Mr. Hogg's writings, though they are deserving of attention as well from their respectability as from the peculiar circumstances under which the author appeared before the public; a short notice of the Queen's Wake, which did not enter at large into its merits, is all that we find about him on looking over our preceding numbers. Indeed, he seems to have faded fast from the memory of the public, though considerable curiosity was excited by his first appearance: much of that was owing to his obscure situation and narrow means of education; from which we were surprised to see him break out with so much of the air of an author. It was natural in such a case to expect too much from him, and when he failed to satisfy that expectation, it was equally natural to place him lower than he deserved.

Excerpt from The North American Review and Miscellaneous Journal, 1821, Vol. 12 The Edinburgh Review against Oxford, refuted, ' which was in its turn the subject of a very lively retort, in the Edinburgh Review. To this Dr. Copleston rejoined in a pamphlet, of which several long extracts were reprinted in the Boston An thology, and here, if we are not misinformed, the contro versy rested. It is no part of our present purpose to revive it; t e rather, as its essential merits are sometimes waved by the warmest friends of Oxford. It is not unusual to hear suc friends concede that the En lish Universities are by no means to be considered merely as p aces of education, whither young men are to resort to acquire knowledge. There are, on the contrary, two other points of view in which these est ments are entitled to respect. The first is, as affording an eh gible residence for oun men of rank and fortune, between the periods of youth an manhood; subjecting them to some restraints, and calling on them for some efforts, which if they make, it is well, and if they do not, it is better than to have been at the centre of dissipation, in the capital. The other principal light, in which the English Universities are viewed, ts that of a nursery for the established church; not exactly as a place to acquire the knowledge requisite for assumin its dig hitias; but as a middle state of referment, from w ich the candidate is translated, when his our cometh.

Excerpt from The North-American Review and Miscellaneous Journal, 1817, Vol. 4 These are two letters giving an account of the origin of Phili 's war, on which we remarked in the account of Hub bar 8 l'ndian wars. There are some interesting facts in these letters, and enough to show that humanity was often forgotten in the treatment of the Indians, which indeed is not unnatural, when the horrible barbarities they committed against the defenceless is considered. As to the justice of these wars, it is now a mere question of speculation, the ln dians are long since extinct, the whites fortunately cultivate the wilds they traversed; the wild species disappeared be fore the civilized one. The following anecdote ot' a girl is interesting, from thecourage and presence of mind dis covered by her.
