HIAWATHA ! 20’1'11 THOUSAND 1
LONGFEELOW’S [NEW POEM.
JUST PUBLISHED. ;
Tin; Song of Himtlm!
In one volume, 16mo. Price sl.
The heroine, with her beautiful name. Minne
haha, (Laughing Water) is a charming charac
ter, and her love story is delicious ns the odors
of the forest, and the song of wild birds. Theat
mospherc of the whole poem is redolent of Na
ture unworn, and the blooms of a life unhackney
ed and free, aro sprinkled with a master’s hand
along the lines of this fresh and most 1 jvcly le
gend.—Boston Transcript.
Wc are brought into intimate relations with
every bird of the forest—every animal whose
haunt are frequented by the Indians, the soind
of lapsing waters is in our car. and tho whole
scene is fragant with the odors of aromatic woods.
The simple joys and sorrow of savage life arc rep
resented in a scries of exquisite pictures, and every
gleam of tenderness and pathos that eau pene
trate a savage breast is produced in touching
beauty.—New York Tribune.
Prom the New York Express.
Taking the common conception of fancy, as
distinguishable from imagination, wit, humor, &c,
no other work in the language, outside es Shak
spearc, Spenser, and Milton, is more uniformly
and successfully sustained throughout in this one
element.
Hiawatha, as a fitting phantany of fabulous
creation, is wrought out with an admirable com
pleteness, beauty and originality. The games
and dances, tricks and transmigrations of the In
dian Puck or Devil, arc hardly surpassed by any
thing of the kind. Tho whole poem will not fail
to fix permanently the beauty and attractiveness
of many local ideal associations upon some of our
most delightful Western scenery.
From Harper’s Magazine.
This is one of the most picturesque fancies of
Indian tradition, and under the plastic shaping
of the poet, is expanded into an episode of wild
and striking beauty. The subsequent life ofHi
awatha is diveresified with an abundance of fabu
lous adventures, which Mr. Longfellow adorns
with the brightest hues of his imagination. In
point of diction the poem is marked by an elabor
ate simplicity—tho Indian names are curiously
wrought into the exquisite finish of the verse—
and though some passages arc almost prosaic in
their bareness of embellishment, the whole tex
ture of the composition shows the dainty fastidi
ousness for which the author is remarkabble.
• ••••• «
It affords a noble illustration of his fine poetic
instinct, the purity and sweetness of his imagin
ation, and his artistic nicety and versatility of
expression.
Wc think he has so far exhausted the subject
that few subsequent writers will venture to tread
in the same path. He has brought the re ources
of versatile fancy, keen sympathies with nature,
a sweet end tender vein of sentiment, and a deli
cate quaintness of versification to the accomplish
ment of- a task which labored under peculiar in
herent difficulties, and which few poets could have
completed with such considerable success.
From the Concord Reporter.
The appearance of this poem is an event in the
literary world of more than ordinary interest. In
this production is to be noted the same artistic
polish which characterizes the author’s former
productions—the same faultless metre and melo
dious rhythm. The trochaic four-feet verse, used
in this poem peculiarly well adapted to the themes
sung. One would think that the ugly looking
Indian names would be hard things to make
music of, but genius can do almost anything—
there is music in the roughest and longest of th?m
as the “Song of Hiawatha” attests. Some of the
legends are grotesque and improbable, yet with
such gracd are they told by the post, that one is
almost constrained to believe them* at any rate, is
made to see their true beauty, which is lost in any
prose rendering of them.
From the Springfield Republican.
As a work of art wc believe it wiil be placed
first on the list of Longfellow’s equsite poems.—
It is an Indian Edda, founded on one of their
traditions, and is throughout wonderfully faith
fully to the ideas and modes of thought and ex
pression of the aboriginal Americans. Already
has it incurred small criticism for this its crown
ing excellence, by those who preposterously
think that Hiawatha should have been made to
teach the philosophy and religion of tho Anglo-
Saxons. The heroine of the po< m, the charm
ing Minnenaha, (Laughing Water,) takes her
name from a beautiful cascade on a small tribu
tary of the Missippi, near St. Anony’a Falls.—
We give in another column the poem of Hia
watha, which whoever reads will net be satisfied
until the whole poem is enjoyed- We may
say of the author, in the language of the poem
itself;
•* All the many sounds of nature
Borrowed sweetness from his singing;
All the hearts of men were softened
By the pathos of his music.”
From the Providence Transcript.
In no effort have the muses more largely lav
ished their favors upon Mr. Longfellow than in
the “ Song of Hiawaths.” The versification,
like many of his posms, is pecu’iar, being proper
ly neither blank verse nor rhyme, yet truly beau
tiful and highly musical. The poem is distin
guished for that simplicity and beauty of
language, that commingling of the real and the
fanciful, which so strongly characterises Indian
legends. It is founded upon the tradtion of a
superhuman personage, known as Hiawatha,
who was sent among tho Indian to “clear
their rivers, forests and fishing grounds, and
teach them the arts of peace.” The episodical
legends of “The Son of tbc Evenihg Star,” and
others, are of touching beauty, and the verso in
which they are embodied may ba regarded at
the perfection of melody.
From the Boston Courier.
Columbus taught a parcel of mutten-heads that an
egg might he poised on its smaller end, and they thank,

But we didn't. Longfellow old. And now, has poetry
—genuine poetry—been the result I This question Is
still and open one: but side with those who answer in
tho affirmative. The “Song of Hiawatha” is a true
poem in spite of its originality I
From the Boston Mercantile Journal.
As a poem, this production certainly displays as
much real genius as any of tho previous works of the
author. It may not rank among his most popular
jxiems. and Is not equal in harmony and gracefulness to
some of his minor places and translations, but comes
fully up to the standard of Evangeline, and possesses
as much ofinstrinsio interest as that favorite poem.
From tho New York Sunday Atlas.
Tbo scholar and student will welcome It as rare addi
tion to our national literature: and tho antiquary and
searcher after Indian lore will regardit as one of their
most invaluable treasures. Tho reading and research
necessary to have compiled tho material out of which
this poem is created, must have cost Mr. Longfellow
many hours of weary labor, for which ho will be amply
repaid by tho completeness of his work, and tho high
praise that must be awarded it by Enrolw?an as well ns
American reviewers , in fact, it must take rank at the
only poem in the language which faithfully embodies
Indian manners and traditions.
From the New Bedford Mereuty.
Bnt the charm of tho poem, in our apprehension. Ilea
In the exquisite pictures which warm alike the fancy
and heart ; tho sylvan landscapes touched with the
glorious bus which genius reproduces for the delight
of tho less gifted eyo and mind- gleams of those ten
dereet affections which reveal the Immortal not less in
the untaught child of tho forest than in the man on
whom thejrighest culture has been lavished, the human
sympathies, the earnest, though struggling aspirations
for tlio beautiful and true, and the natural piety which
links all human races, from tho prlmev. l to the present
time, inono bond of brotherhood. Mr Lonefeiiow has
certainly done wonders with the fragmentary materials
that ho could gather; nor has ho been less felicitous
than faithful in hie portraiture of the Indian character
which he has left in its untutored grace and primal
strength.

To recurd the singular in iJcnU that uccu.-re I

aro woven. Fiction has lent but few embelish

strangeness. Should this work achieve the ob
ject contemplated, its readers willrccerve a more
crrrect impression of some unlaurelled laborers
for the public amusement than is genera’i enter
tained. Between them and the eve y-day world
tho curtainof prejudice has fallen in impenetrable
folds. From its fatal shadow those alono who
climb to the highest pinnacle of f ame emerge, —
Yet among the most lowly of this proscribed

that Heaven plants its flowers and scatters its
pearls in unexpected places. Look for them, you
who judge rashly, before you pronounce that
they have no existence there.
Anna Cora IliTcuts.
Ravenswood, October 17, 1855.
[From the Daily Advertiser.]
This volume contains three splendid stories—
Stella The Promoter’s Daughter. The Un
known Tragedian; into which the author lias
brought, in a very interesting manner, her expe
riences us an actress, during her successful pro
fessional career of nine years.
[From the New York Mirror.]
Her “Autobiography of an Actress” is a char
ming book; but this “Mimic Life” is in every
way superior. It is written with great power
beauty and pathos; and evidently sketched more
from memory than imagination. It contains
threa stories of the most absorbing interest—
Stclln. The Prompter’s Daughte r and The
Unknown Tragedi’n.
[From the Boston Transcript.]
Tho work is destined to a popularity equal if
not superior to that ofthe Autobiography; for it
is not a maudlin romance spun from a morbid
brain, but is the re ult of the life studies and ex
periences of a true woman and a n accomplished
writer, who has here deposited some of her more
sacred convictions in regard to life and i’s means

Wc advise all who would enjoy perhaps the
most exquisitely beautiful production of author’s
ever-finished pen, to buy the volume, and be sure
to read the story of little Tina —a story destined
to rank among the most beautiful sketches of
childhood that have ever yet appeared.
[From the Philadelphia News.]

which it gives of theatrical life behind the curtain

—thare is an originality and freshness in the style
throughout, which, of itself, must fascinate the
reader.
[From the Boston Mail.]
Mimic Life cannot fail to become a universal
favorite; and gain admirers every where. It pos
sesses every literary elemen* that can command
success, and it will render the name of the au
thoress still more famous.
• [From the New York Albion.]
As a literary effort, “Mimic Life” may be hon
estly praised. The personages are sharply cut;
the interest progresses page after page. Our
bounds forbid us particularising, but we should
be at once ungrateful for pleasure derived, and
unjust in our criticism if we did not mark our
one character. The hump-backed Prompter of
the second story, carrying a stout heart and
cheerful spirit through weariness and woo, de
serves to be set apart in a niche of his own.
[From the Christian Inquirer.]
“Stella” is full of warning “The Unknown
Tragedian” hasexamples of heart-magnanimity,
whilst “The Prompter’s Daughter” is worthy
of a place beside “Little Nell” and “Oliver
Twist.”

It would be difficult to find any contribution to
Sacred Literature, that has attained to a higher
rank than the Commentaries of Dr. Clarke' Be
sides forming a moderate, but clear elucidation
of the true meaning of the Sacred Word, it
abounds with illustrations in Science, the Litera
ture of all ages, and the history of all times and
countries. It is difficult to conceive of a com
plete library without this valuable work; and yet,
alone, of itself, it affords its possessor no mean va
