TO CORRESPONDENTS.
“The Character of the Indian,” though inadmissible, is not without merit. In manner it is nearly faultless; in matter, too commonplace to be either instructive or entertaining.
“F.” had better send his verses to “R.” in manuscript. She would undoubtedly greet them with a hearty welcome.
“P.’s” poetry on Poland, though apparently somewhat in years, is filed for insertion. The prolegomena, on account of their too great length, are declined.
“Loose Thoughts on Smoking”—much too loose for publication. We find no fault with the author’s habit, but think he had better smoke in silence.
