Two-thirds of the volume is filled with Wordsworth, who has now made good his position as one of the five great chiefs of English poetry, and whose works embody, in the highest form, whatever is noblest and best in the English poetical literature of the last hundred years. The whole of The Excursion, the first two books of the Prelude, Michael, The Brothers, Tinturn Abbey, Laodamia, On the Power of Sound, Ode on Immortality, and a large number of smaller pieces are included. The selections from Coleridge are The Ancient Mariner, Christabel, Fears in Solitude, and eighteen other pieces. From Burns, The Cotter's Saturday Night, The Twa Dogs, Tam O'Shanter, The Vision, and twenty-six other poems, and also twenty-nine of the songs. From Beattie, The Minstrel; from Goldsmith, The Deserted Village; and from Thomson, The Castle of Indolence; these being generally regarded as the best poems of those authors. In all cases, except a few pieces of Wordsworth's, the poems are given entire, as the authors wrote them.

BURKE, WEBSTER, and BACON. With Notes and Sketches
of the Authors' Lives. By Prof. H. N. HUDSON. I2mo.
Cloth. 648 pages

This work is intended as a sort of companion volume to the preceding. It is made up on the same general principle, the contents being selected with a view to unite, as far as may be, the culture of high and pure literary tastes with the attainment of liberal and useful knowledge. The selections from Burke are Letter to the Sheriffs of Bristol, Speech on Economical Reform, Speech to the Electors of Bristol, and A Letter to a Noble Lord, all given entire; also twenty-nine other pieces gathered, as seemed best, from the author's various works. From Webster, Speech in reply to Hayne, Speech on the Presidential Protest, and discourse on The Character of Washington; also thirty-two shorter pieces from other speeches. From Bacon, thirty of the fifty-eight Essays, all given entire, and several choice selections from Advancement of Learning.
