also beneficial to her own laboring people. But
this is not panacea for all her ilIs-very far from

The PotrcAL WORKS OF REciSALp HEBER late Bishop

The Advertisement Informs that the Poems
Of Bishop Heber have not before been presented
complete to the public, although volume profess
ing to contain the Works of Hemans Heber and
Pollok, has been current in this country for the
last eight or ten years. We surprised that the
good Bishops Poetical Works should have re-
NAMED SO long uncdited and have little doubt
that they will even at this late day, be gener
ally read They are not of the very highest order
the fire of Genius is less intense thaH in the writ
ings of the born poets of our century they do not
soar to the highest heaven of invention though
that last is poor word for the idea. Still, their
merit does not depend their piety, intimately as
the two are connected. Hebcr has written many
good poems and no bad ones and who in our day
has given us HYMNS surprising From Greenand's
lev Mountains, Thou art gone TO the Grave, and
Brightest and Best of the Sons of the Morning ,
The volume before is just fairly executed we
think finer one would have been more generally
acceptable.
