A Reviewer Reviewed. A reply, in the Angttt number of the Eclec tic, to captions strictures in the Macon Tele graph and Messenger on certain rhymes of .Love's First Dream, a song recently published by Guilford Wood & Co., serves Mr. Watson with opportunity for another characteristic criticism (?) of the song, and its author. The article appeared in £he Telegraph and Messen ger of August 13th. This review is worth} r of our Poet Laureate's pen and worthy of his heart. If spleen, con ceit, and uncharitableness are essential ingre dients in the composition of a critic, Mr. W. may claim to be one, and demand our homage as consistently for this, as he can for the pro ductions of his genius, or respect for his rank _ja& Chief Interpreter of Art, and Vicegerent of the Muses for the State of Georgia. Probably silence would be the best answer Mr. H. could make, he having no desire to achieve ephemeral notoriety by wantonly as sailing the repntataon of a brother writer, or to make rude assertions a substitute for facts, in the manner of the writer in the Telegraph and Messenger; he is also aware that ••Those Here® inquisitors of wit, The critics, spare no flesh that ever writ;” but, os this Macon Cerberus needs sop, and the clipping of this article from the Eclectic, may serve to fill space in the columns over which he presides, which, otherwise, would be devoted to matters of little interest to intelli gent readers, Mr. H. hopes the privilege, and the amusement, of a brief reply to the last ukase from Macon will be accorded him. Onr venerable critic’s main reliance to play I the sole of Art Interpreter ana Vicegerent of the Muses for the State of Georgia with proper eclat, and to sharpen the edge of his wit, seems to be a chronic fondness for the sup posed privileges accorded to “his age;” hence the patronizing way in which ho alludes to Mr. H. as “a young Atlanta poet of some promise, but more negligence,” and how de sirous he—the Censor—would be, under cer tain circumstances, “to hoist the name of onr Atlanta young friend to a niche in the same temple with Dp’den and Pope.” He claims, therefore, by implication, his right to cen sure Mr. H., and to patronize him as a juve nile aspirant, on the ground of his own supe riority in age, experience, and consequent wisdom. It happens that Mr. H. is in possession of a “temple” in one of whose niches he finds the name of his aged and venerable Macon friend “hoisted;” this temple is Davidson's Living Writers of the Sonth. The niche contains a biography of Mr. Asa Rogers Watson, in forming the world that he was bom (by the way, this refutes the theory that “critics all are ready made”) on Christmas Day, 1837, and began to write for the press in 1862. Mr. H. has every reason for believing that he, also, was born, but this event transpired on the ICtb day of January, 1835 -three years before the carnal embodiment of a genius which, under the name of Watson, at present illumines the local department of the Macon Telegraph and Messenger. Mr. H. began to write for the press in 1852, ten years before Mr. W.’s advent in a similar capacity. He will, therefore perceive that the “juvenility” dodge is only a dodge after ail, and that harping npon this string is wast ing “sweetness on the desert air.” That “beef and cabbage,” the culinary di vinities, whose superior influences over his affections even the divine afflatus of Poesy can not overcome, sometimes obscure Mr. Watson’s perceptive faculties, is proven by the inference he draws from Mr. Hnbncr's article, namely: (1.) That “Mr. H. owns a Walker’s Rhym ing Dictionary.” (2.) That “Mr. II. attempts to shadow his own faults behind the faults of other men,”, when the truth is that Mr. H. never owned, nor has seen the book mentioned, and. as al lowable rhymes are not faults in poetic diction, sanctioned as they are by license, and the usage of standard writers, he can not be charged with “shadowing” a thing that has no existence. It is unnecessary to reiterate facts well-known to every one conversant with English prosody. Continuing his heart-rending strain of irony, Mr. W. says: Pope, Parnell, Addison, Dry den, ! Prior, and others referred to, had more repn- \ (itioi: than Mr. Hnbner lias yet won ; there- they could risk unallowable rhymes oc- “ ctBnally. » ♦ I Has anybody presumed to deny this truism? But our alleged venerable critic proceeds to giv* his imaginary thumbscrew another twist, l#y asserting that “Mr. Hubner’s rhymes are less allow obi* than any quoted, because they do not preserve the same final consonant sound in both rhyming members—the law ( which requires the preservation of the conso nant sound is more inexorable than that which seeks to preserve the voicel sound.” This is the only statement in Mr. Watson’s entire essay worthy of argumentation. We reply, rhyme being the closing of two verse lines with words similar in sound, such rhymes be ginning on the accented syllable, and sounds, not letters, constituting rhyme, therefore the claim that “the law requiring the preservation of the consonant sound is more inexorable Condensed Railroad Tima Table, Giving the arrival and departure of all Trains, reeled by R.

Another statement worthy of notice is “that poetry is more rigidly criticised now than it ever has been, and that if Bryant, Longfel low, Tennyson, or Morris should use snch al lowable rhymes as are quoted from the works of Parnell, Prior, Dryden, Addison, and Pope, nothing coaid avert the blight of killing criti cism.” We reply, there are more poets, more read ers of poetry, and, consequently, more critics of poetry now than formerly, but the canons of criticism were then 03 rigid os they are now, these laws being based upon the immuta ble principles of common sense and esthetics, whose decrees were as inexorable in the days of Homer, Horace, Pope, Boilean, and Blair, as they are in onr own. Mr. Watson can not forego tbe chance offered by this controversy to kick the “dead lions” of Poesy, the “old masters.” Pervert ing the issue for the purpose, he says: “Mr. II. would not care to make them his models in every particular, a* Dryden wrote ftigismonda and Gnisc&rdo, and Pope—A Farewell to Lon don; but, were he to do so, such an order of morals would damn Mr. H. more inexorably than his unallowable rhymes. ” What the question of morals has to do with the question of allowable rhymes, is one of those inexplicable mental processes which metaphysicians of the Watson School only can evolve from their inner consciousness, and for which logic has neither name nor habita tion. Of course Mr. H. has no desire to be “damned” (O, fie, venerable Mentor!) for either of the reasons mentioned, but, in con .side-ration of the fact that “we are all poor, sinful critters,” as Widow Bedott says, Mr. H. will endeavor to resist, for instance, tho be setting sin of our Macon friend—uncharita- bleness—which inclines him, as one of those condemn&ble “old master” says, to “Damn with faint praise, asai-nt with civil leer, And without sneering, teach the rest to sneer; Willing to wound, and yet afrt' 1 to strike. Just hint a fault, and heaitate fslike.” Should Mr. H., however, Jt any time, be guilty of such transgression, be hopes that Homebody, in tbe elegant language of out young Macon friend, will “proceed to peel the bark off” of him. Meanwhile Mr. H. will keep the even tenor of his way, and strive, to the best of ability, to “Write to the mind and heart, and let the car Glean after what it can.” P. 8. —Mr. Hnbner hopes that Mr. Watson will find nothing objectionable in the above quotation, as tbe author is Bailey, one of the “young masters,” and a writer whose versifi cation, and order of morals, are both above reproach.
