A M E BIC A N POETY. ‘ To be, or not to be ?’ ‘ Where is the American epic ?’ is a ques tion daily asked. The man who answered. • lu our mountains, 5 was nolsj far from truth. We arc no disciples of the school which teaches that an epic bursts at once to life, without any connection with the times, the taste, or the manners of a people; fr though genius can do much, she is scarce omnipo tent, and is herself the creature of surround ing circumstances. The days of miracles have passed. Tire spirit ofthe age is stamp ed on the jEneid, and no one but a puritan and a controversialist, as well as a poet, could have written Paradise Lost. A people may, therefore, possess genius for every other task ; they may even give birth to minds which, if educated amid poetic associations, would light the world with their brilliant phantasies; and yet, if destitute of these associations, that same people may in vain hope lor a son of ‘ the immortal lyre.’ We do not, in line, deny the existence of a germain genius for poetry; but we look in surrounding circum stances for the soil to nourish the undying shoot, and if it he not fit, we lay ihe matter over to posterity. Heaven grant they may be more poetic than we are now! We are broaching no new doctrine, when we say, that the present age is incapable of the epic. In all the arts and sciences which are either practical or demonstrable, our young republic has displayed talents and’ genius as yet unsurpassed. In mechanics In’ bold, daring inventions, in row and tremen dous influences in the moral world, and in all, the more popular fields of human intellect, her rtuik is high. Her strides have bt*en | gigantic. So peculiarly fitted have her insti j lotions been, for the development of useful | Blind, and so rapid and startling have been j these triumphs, that we have seemed to ; breathe a magic atmosphere of intellect, , from out of which, whenever the wants of i her people have invoked them, spirits vast and powerful have started at her call. But in the finer and more beautiful workings of the mind, she is as yet a tyro. Tiie condition of herself, the character of her people, and the circumstances which enervate her litera ture, forbid the most sanguine to hope for a triumph in poetry. There is no flight of genius so near the sun as that of the epic. It demands an eye of site, and a wing of iron nerve. Every power of tiie mind ; every aid from know ledge ; tiie most exquisite taste: the nicest choice of language ; and the divincst inspi rations of genius, are necessary for, and call ed into full play, in (he struggle. Few, there fore, have ever dared the flight, and fewer ■stili have gained tiie empyrean. Homer, VYigil, Tasso and Milton, are almost alone in their suhlitne and boundless supremacy. Perhaps, too, every century increases the dif ficulty ; for as nations rise in civilization, their fastidiousness increases, their minds be come enlarged, they hold communion with lof tier spirits, and cail for more magnificent re sults. The poet of to-day most burst through tiie overshadowing of his predecessors. His chances of success sre consequently lessened. Besides, the epic has always followed in the tram of other party. It seems, indeed, as if the worlds of poesy and intellect arc like the mo ral universe ; that progression is the law of cf'ch ; inat great events are always heralded by those of lesser note; and that every sue cessive attainment serves only as a vantage ground to descry the next. Tints Chaucer, Spenser and Shakspoare, foreshadowed the coming of Milton ; and doubtless many a lost fragment ol lofiv poetry ushered in the im mortal Iliad. l 7iig i, too, and Tasso, first drew from tiie delicious spring, and then, fresh from the fountain, poured forth upon the world their tide of mellow song: and many an epoch will pass in our history, before we can have works like theirs. Our country, at the outset, is destitute of the proper feeling, without which no poetry, much less the epic, can flourish. We are too utilitarian for the muses. The wants of a new people monopolised tiie talents of our fathers, and, as was natural, produced a be lief that the necessaries of existence were the only tilings desirable. They had no time, generally, even for the elegancies of life; and tin:re were lew hereditary families of wealth and taste to keep up, by their patronage, a pure estimation of poeirv and the finer arts. Lett to themselves therefore, the belles-lelters, after a fruitless struggle, fell into the hands of a solitary few; and the great body of the nation was whirled away bv the desire, now become universal, of amassing wealth. The consequence -was soon felt in literature; and j we are to-day without any extensive class of j literary men, who, like those of England, j light the world with their deep thoughts. But! pocty suffered most. We became a grasping, i trading and productive community; ps.ib: ; c| opinion, that silent but tremendous tyrant ofj the mind, went over to the eide of wealth; • and it soon begin to be regarded by wise utilitarians as mad, Quixotic and ridiculous,: ii’ not disreputable, to sacrifice a competence’ for poetry. The rnuse was literally ostracised ; and the young, diffident writer,sneered at by l what the world calls your substantial men, and encouraged by scarcely or. 3, began to question his own wisdom, and soon left Par nassus in despair. No mailer what were his talents; the same cynic spirit crush ed alike tiie mighty and the small. The wings of the young eagle were clipped in his eyrie; and the cold blast withered the lily, even in the bud. Sorts?, however, conscious of (its immortal fire within them, and believing early neglect to be the lot of poets, maintained the battle | against every odds, and dared even to vacate the magazine for a hot pressed octavo from Carey or Harper. But, poor mortals! their presumption was soon checked. They had Lillian’, taieuts, it is true, but they had com mitted the unpardonable sin; and who would , pay a halt* eagle for American poetry, when they could get English equally as good for half price ? A lithe encouragement might i have fixed their bent, but the spirit of utilita rianism was too coarse to appreciate, and too niggard to purchase their works. Their j publishers frowned, their editions decayed on j the shelf, and every fat tradesmea jostled them contemptuously in the streets. What could be dune? Before them, on one hand, was poverty, and that queer thing called posthumous renown ; and on the other, wealth, respectability and influence. A man. after the enthusiasm of twenty is past, does not long hesitate between a parlor and a gar ret ; and so they took to trade, got rich, lost ail their fire, and now, instead of ‘ getting fou,’ like Burns. ‘ on twa-penny,’ do so like gentlemen, on Burgundy and champaigne. Such, alas ! has been the fate of the Ameri can harp. Our poets, one bv one, have passed away. Ha Heck, Percival, Bryant j and Dana, where are they? Their history j is short. A few wild bursts in youth, a few; glorious triumphs in later ‘days, and then they ceased. At most, a few melancholy notes wail, at intervals, from their deserted lyres. This universal-and distempered taste, which condemns the American poet to silence, is at the root of the evil, and affects poetry, even in the oerre ; for if slighter pieces of ac- knowlcdged merit are neglected, bow will it lure with the more delicate works of taste? How, in short, can our pueis ever rise to the epic, if they are s'ruck so remorselessly from lower fields, where they might gain strength for a loftier reach ? It is impossible. The eagle breasts not tiie thunderbolt, till he has shaken for years the dew drops from his wmg. Our people must, therefore, imbibe a taste tor true poetry, patronise and study something else than a partisan newspaper, ami foster a more iron literature, and a more national spirit, before they can hope for a laurelled muse. When this, however, shall be attain ed, they will be but at tiie thresbhold of the epic. They may have the body, but they will still want its nerve —hallowed moral as sociations; for they, more than any thing else, give birth to the poesy of a people.— Thus in Scotland, that land of song, the very air breathes poetry. Not a mountain but has seen a skirmish ; every plain has thun dered with a battle ; herg'ci s are full of wild and shadowy tiaditions ; her cairns are haunted with her plnidcd chieftains; ages ago, her rivers sang hack tiie verses of her bards; and even her brown moorlands Bre the homes of fairies. Born and nourished amid such thrilling memories, if there exis’s a latent spark in her sons, it is struck forth. The peasant cumot cross his farm, without beholding some spot famous in song. Hoary traditions and mosy.grown baronial ruins, the border fHj >s u s Wallace, and the fame of an i C'*;nt triumphs, kindle her genius into enthu siasm, until it breaks forth in her old mourn ful ballads, or the sweet and touching pathos of Burns. You can hear in Scott the rattle of her armor, and see in Ramsay, the gende waiving of her plaids. But not have no te of these. We are not rocked unconsciously into poets. Time has not hallowed our bor der conflicts ; and every thing in our history is comparatively modern and matter-of-fact. Perhaps eur only materials are iti the dreamy traditions of the red men ; but they can never win our sympathies, as our own fathers might have done. We are, consequently, without any epic, save the ‘ Columbiad,’ and that is one only by courtesy. It wants the energy, the sublimity, the living fire of genius. A classic taste, a patriotic feeling, and the pur est harmony of numbers, are nothing, without that divinity of thought which buists uncon sciously from inspiration. Barlow tried to appeal to our moral associations, but they were too recent, and he failed. They had not the hoary sanctity of age. But a national epic cannot exist, without them. They burn through Homer, smile in Virgil, and thunder with the arch fiend in Paradise Lost. Time may strew them around us; but who, at the present day, is so fool hardy as to sing with out them? We must wait till ages have ivied over our allars. until our border fields loom mistily in the distance of antiquity, and the heroes of our infancy stalk, like shadowy figures, in the gloom.. Till 11 en let us not despair. * Omnes non omnia pessumus.* This, together with our origin, accounts for tiie absence of a national poetry. We have no American school. France has her distinctive qualities; Italy, with her sunny bills, hers ; even Germany lias filled her young yet giant literature with those as strong ; but we are literally Anglican. Per haps, with tiie same language, a lingering allegiance to their models, good or bid, and the similarity of our manners and tone of mind, arising from a common origin and maintained by the tremendous influence which their literature, disseminated cheaper than our own, exerts upon us, this is unavoid able. We are too much in letters the pro vince as we!! as colony of Britain; we shall never be national in poetry, till we break the spell ; and we shall probably never break the spell til! our national character is more dis tinct from theirs. This, generations will scarcely see. Stiil, however, onr poetry has been less na tional than it. might be. Too many imitate an English model, rather than give free course to their own thoughts. This is a delicate ground, and we must’ walk it stealthily, or win their ire. But the eagles of the hill trill know our motives—we care not how many of the ravens caw at us. We mean no dis respect to Helicon, lor heaven knows we have drunk too often at her fount. But we are Americana in ancestry, education snd feeling ; we see the evil; it can only he cor rected when known; we have glanced at its most prominent causes, and to the best of our humble ability, shall denounce it. We might instance more or less from every writer of established merit, but it is so obvious to all who read them, that every man of taste will cry ‘ amen !’ Their metaphors, descriptions of scenery, and lights in which they throw their pieces, in fine that indiscribable sjme thins;, yclept the spirit and essence of the verse, are a!! too often British. They seem enchanted and powerless before their mas ters. They are ntiier pretty than sublime; fi>r they are certain of being the one, with care, while it needs lofty daring for the other. We speak now only of the poetasters, and some weaker moments of the masters. The mournful simplicity of Perciva!; the tender, pensive melancholy of Bryant; even Brsi nard, with his fo-ce, and Dana with his ener gy and fire, are darkened at times by the overshadowing of their English origin snd education. These great authors, however, know this as well as we; and redeem them selves at times, by flinging off productions, splendid in national allusions, burning from their altars. They prove what they might do if they would ; when will they, fearlessly and boldly, strike out an orbit for themselves ? Do they consider that while they emulate the British school, their transatlantic rivals, born amid touching associations, nourished by op ulence, favor and taste, and gifted with the passport of English criticism, will always, with equal worth, surpass them? And do ; they forget that we are slowly hecomin* a bolder, more vivacious people; that our na : tional character is surely in its germ : that even if unequal in some respects, an original poetry will carry off the palm; and that the ■ present muse of Britain should be as little .fitted for Ame’ica, as the frail flower of the I Yarrow for the rugged mountains of the west ? All this they know, and if they do not, i will thank us for the truth. Their weaker imitators, however, deepen the darkness, and i then send forth their fool clamor, if we warn ; them of the evil. It is like the screams of the harpies around the Trojan tables: 1 Et magr,us qaationt clangoribus abas.’ But if destitute of the moral associations, Icthargised by utilitarianism, and chained by education and influence to British models, how C3O we be national? The answer i easy. We have the sublilies of nature, snd bv seizing on thse our poets might be im mortal. We have noble rivers; eternal for ests ; the most stupendous mountains ; and seasons full of glorious associations. The fall of the leaf, the dreary winter forests, the ocean prairies, and the picturesque Indian landscapes of the west, furnish materials to tally unknown to England, capable of found ing a distinct school, and yet how rarely are they sung! Before our country can be re deemed, therefore, we must learn to follow nature rather than the schools, and, from the roar of Niagara, and the vast melancholy sweep of the Mississippi, to gather laurels for immortality. Let t; em soar amid the grand est of nature’s works, and write, as Apelks painted, ior eieruity. They have obstacles to surmount; a taste to regenerate, and a literature to redeem ; but ihe more dangerous the etl >rt, the more -bribaiH ihe success.— When Dante snapped the coid that swathed the mind ot Italy, did they bid fairer foi suc cess than we? Had Chaucer never waved bis wand, nor gleamed forth, the meteor of eternity ; had Galileo paused, or Bacon never dared his splendid philoso phy, where would have been the mind’s tri umpi , or man’s renown ? Their countries are in a haze tv th their fame. True divine genius, when once it has been fanned into a flame, cannot he quenched; and when Arne r.ca shall educate a Shakspeare, what can crush the giant .’ He will revolutionise our j poetry. He will reign without a Waterloo, j We can no more stay his bursts of inspira- j tion, than check the rapid, angry flushes of! the storm. V; e repeat it. therefore, that there is u dearth oU bold, mutual genii-s in our poetry. \\ o nave up lord of the epic or the drama. I-have not yet woke the slumbering mind. Th et c is t'-dent enough, but it is either seduced into utilitarian pursuits, or overawed in youth hy the grandeur of the British clas sics. But time will do the work. A great people can no more Ik 1 slaves in literature, than in government. Age will give ns a na tional characier, fling around us a halo of touching associations, find imperceptibly in crease the boldness of our writers. As the community becomes more advanced, it will, as all old countries, have greater time for the elegances of life. Opulence will begin to nourish talent; the people will become more refined; a better taste will finally prevail among them, native genius will meet with due encouragement, and America be hal lowed in immortal song. Some Byron will go forth, tire pilgrim of the west; and some Shakspeare will thrill us with the deeds of our fathers. The wild native march will ring through our mountains, and the simple ballad will be sung in our glens. A mournful aspi ration will go up from some undying genius, ‘ to be re t>embered in his line With his land's language.’ That day, whenever it shall come, will re deem us. V\ e shall then be ready for any sale. As the old Greek wrapped himself in his mantle, and laid down lo die, so may a country wrap herself in the glory of her sons, and calmly wait her destiny.

He whistles his chills with a wonderful knack, For he comes from a cold country. A witty old fellow this winter is ; A mighty okl fellow for glee ! He cracks his jokes on the pretty sweet miss The wrinkled old maiden unfit to kiss. And freezes the dew of their lips—for this Is the way with such fellows as he ! Old Winter’s a frolicksome binds.

He’ll whistle along for the ‘ want of his thought,’ And set all the warmth of our fors at naught, And ruffle the laces by pretty girls bought; For a frciickeome old fellow’s he! Old Winter’s a wricked old chap, I worn As wicked arr ever you’ll see ! He withers the- flowers so tiesh and green— * •And biles the per - nose of ‘he miss of sixteen, As she triumphantly walks in maideniv sheen— A wicked ol fellow is he ! SLANDER. It is tin idea full of consolation, that God never allows an evil to visit, us, but be at the same time supplies us with some source of consolation. A man may be called upon to yield up llie wife of bis young nfi’ecti'Uis, or the children of bis love; but with this blow comes bright hopes of an immortal reunion of years and years spent in the bliss of an eternal world. Religion is his consolation. A man may lose property by a sudden blow of misfortune, or by gradual decay. Ii is a a loss severe and unfortunate. But he knows the extent and sees his remedy. With nerves new strung, and resolution sharpened hy ad versity, he retrenches his expenses, increases his exertions, becomes more frugal, and re trieves his losses. Connected with this, may be other evils that fa!! more heavily upon the feeling heart. Friends may have dropped from the unfortunate in his hour of adversity; ingratitude may have thrown its mildew over him. Those he may have taken to his bosom when frozen ond almost lifeless, may, viper like, sting venomously their resting pi-.ce. The wound our peace receives from those we have cherished and trusted, is indeed a painful one. Yet, even here, the good man may find an alleviation, by taking the picture of moral deformity which ingratitude offers, and setting it up as an example of warning to his own heart; and though he must grieve ever its wasted tenderness and abused confi dence, yet let remember, that the Al mighty, from his temple of glory, has His eye of majesty upon him, and that in his case, and in all others, He will prove himself just in Ids mercy. But among all the evils with-which man afliicls his fellow man, there is, perhaps, none, that causes so much pain as Slander. I be lieve it may be taken as a general rule, that in all cases of malicious falsehood, the calum niator has become the enemy of Ids victim, hv inflicting upon him some previous iniurv. This may be accounted for on the same prin- i ciple that we love those on whom we confer benefits; and there is no enmity so bitter, so unrelenting, as iii.it of one who has injured a fellow being, and umcjtenting carries about the consciousness of it in his bosom. In the presence of toe injured man he is humbled with tiie convic ion of his own inferiority; he feels that he Is looked upon in his littleness, and that i.i.s heart is bHbre an .her in hs blackness; an i human nature is s> ;rh that there can be but little warm , fleeti n iur an object we know does not, ard cannot • .steem us. But where is the remedy of the victim of slander ? In Ins heart, in hie principles, in his life. Not by going from man to man to con tradict circulated falsehoods. No man with truly delicate led mgs will stoop so low as to endeavor to convince others by words that he is not that, which in ihe rectitude of ins heart he ought not to believe his neighbor capable of suppcs.ng h'm. Nor is bis reme dy in, as it is called, tracing the slander to its source. In most casts it is difficult, and al ways painful to do so; and when it is done, what is the end obtained ? The privilege of feeing lawyers; of collecting witnesses to prove that he himself is not a had man, and that his antagonist is; to hear actions, that have sprung from exalted feelings and higii souled motives, tortured into errors, or per haps crimes; to see (lie most pure and sa cred actions of his life dragged f r om their sanctuary and distorted, til! the injured man almost doubts Ins own identity. And what is the puftbhm r:t the live in flicts upon the slanderer? i'he f >rfi iture of money! Can that pay for the agonies suf £ rod by his victim? No, not if each base’ syllable uttered could be hardened into a d’a- moiiri, i ic:i as liiat on Russia’s diadem; not il eni'h pube oi the slanderer s heart could lei! do” n ruh;es, as a compensation for !he evils o!’ his falsehood. Then vvhv seek ihis mentis of redress so long as the law otleis one so feeble ? The slandered man must submit to see bis reputation injured for a time; he must teach himself to see the eye of esteem turned from bint; to have the warm grasp of friendship less frequently warm his heart; 10 receive the formal bow instead of the cordial greet ing. But let him not despair; the world will at length judge rightly. Let him call up his religion and his philosophy to his aid, while steady in the rectitude of his heart he min gles with his fellow men, omitting no oppor tunity of doing good, and avoiding all ap pearances of evil. This will prove the anti ! dote of slander.— Ladies’ Companion. Prom the St. Joseph Times. THE POETRY OP ASSOCIATION, BY HORATIO WALDO. Wc * Per a few fleeting hours the bitter griefs, The grovelling cares, and sinful joy sos earth, Aivl orcamo i, that life would ever be to os, A moonlit scene of music and romance.— UUa. Prom the hour when Sappho struck her ‘ burning lyre’ to that in which Bvron, with his magtc cup, drew from the deepest wells ol the human passions, we have listened to the silvery tones of gifted ones, ns they have sung ol the poetry of feeling, of music, and oi motion; and not unfrequentiy have we been carried far beyond the bounds of sober reason, in the divine indulgence of those deli cious feelings which spring from the contem plation of these rich subjects of romance, wi.cn considered separate and alone. But it is the highest evidence of a mind purely poeti cal, that it lends itswf to the association of ideas and circumstances, ail containing with in themselves the soul and spirit of poetry. Such a mind, not content with a solitary'feel mg, a siiiide strain of music, or a lor.e leaf trembling in isolate beauty,seeks and obtains by the power ol association, a rich and rare cluster of nature’s beauties; upon which, in the indulgence of a chastened imagination, it may revel and feast in rational ecstacy. llow delightful the associations of mind and memory, when thrown upon the world’s wide sea of arrows and joys, deformities and beau ties ! The cup of misfortune may fill to the brim, and even overflow ; but the next rolling wave ol the great sea of life, on which we floa t, tiny hear to our ear a note of gladness, which shall thrill our heart-strings as the mu sic. of the spheres. The eye may be rivetted by compulsion upon trie scenes of heart-sick eiung depravity and desolation; but anon, circumstances will sweep aside the dark veil, and discover to 1 fie delighted vision, beauties oi innate purity, untouched and untarnished by pollution. Nature has been lavishinglv bountiful in her gifts and graces. She is ever clad in beauty and brightness to those who view her with the eve of philosophy, in moments of calm untroubled retirement; and upon hearts attuned to deep and generous feeling, her music ever fails", as the gentle dew oi Heaven upon the opening rose of morn; the sensibilities are quickened; charity ex panded ; hope brightened; and all the poetry o; nature is brought into beautiful and har monious play. But thus to enjoy nature, the mind must he deeply imbued with the philoso phy of poetry, and the heart must love to go out in search tor happiness, in the pure and unsophisticated haunts of retirement. Let me not be considered paradoxical when Isay, that the poetry of association, con only be tUi uuA in -wcei nec.tiswn. ru ‘mo ments f such seclusion, did the unmatched muse of a Byron take her measureless flights, and having sung amid the high bowers of Paradise, returned to wander in rich fancy among the ruins of the human heart. In mo ments like these, did the fertile imaginings of a pour themselves along the thornv patli oi life, strewing it with sweetest roses, creation succeeding creation, like fruit grow ing on fruit, in the enchanted garden of Ar rnida ; and who will doubt the poetry of as sociation. and its high delights, a3 they listen to Anacreon Moore, discoursing of the Stars : ‘ Oh, what a vision w ere the Stars When first I paw them burn on high, Ro.ling along like living rar3 Ofligi t, for gods to journey by! They were my heart’s first passion-ds's And ni.rhls unwearied, in their rays Hive 1 hun r oil each sense Seemed full of their Ltrighi influence.’ The fair and gentle muse, from whose bright song 1 have ventured to extract a motto, lias sougi.t in hpr retirement, and made vocal, an isle of modern discovery, not lest beautiful arid romantic titan those which have been rendered clase-c by ancient poets; and hav ing myself, in firmer days, stood upon that. ‘ bright isle,’ and heard the loud eloquence of Ocean; and listened to the music of birds; and looked up info the laughing heavers, and around me upon the green and verdant beau ties of earth. I must accord to the poetry of 4 Lilia,’ an accuracy and a depth of associa tion. rendering it true to nature, and impact ing to it a charm, which makes one wish a thousand times, ihet each stanza were a vol ume. I* air girl, thy harp should not be hung On willows bending to decay : ‘i he rods might ask why lies unstrung The iyre -hat struck so sweet a lay ! There are a thousand associations in this fairy iar.-l to inspire the muse; flowers of every hue are forever springing and blowing, and throwing their perfume oa every hand : froft and cloudless sides ere overhead, through which the moon travels in mellow splendor, rivalling the azure heaven ofltaly itself; and the breeze that sweeps o’er land and sea, is , -oti and gentle as the breathings of an infant: And what can curb the’ genius of a youthful poetess! Can even a maiden muse slumber on the shores of St. Joseph ! There be many green and verdant spots upon the word’s v ide map. as there are upon memory’s waste ; but none more fair, more enamoring, more poet ..cal then this. The music voice of ‘ many waters’ is continually heard in the serenade of natine, and the great green reran laves the very feet of beauty and sparkles with diamond brilliancy, equally in the moon’s trembling light, and the sun’s broad and flay blsze ; 2nd ‘ 1 he pent'e soieh winds sijh t pun its blossom, with a breath as sweet As trembl on the rosy lips of love ; I he inortn may boast tier Christmas rite?, and gather her sons and daughters around the ioc-'d hoard to fir.st and make merry the heart; and pure is the so ram of enjoyment that flows through these circles, and high and yi’icy are their old fashioned joys—but nature is (ieai'f around them ; her beauties have with ered before (lie cold hiatus of December, and white all may be comfort and peace within, winter sings his hoarse and startling requiem Without.
