A. little flower sprung up in our pathway,
A bud that scarce opo'd for the dew:
Too fragile to live, in this cold, dreary world,
It faded and sank from our view.
We mourn thy departure ; we griee for thy love,
But still 'mid our sorrow.; there rom?s a S WCV. t joy,
For released from all pain in the bright world above,
We behold with the seraphs our loved angel boy.
Then farewell, dear Willie, a few fleeting years
Shall release us front earth NI all sorrows and tights,
Then gladly we'll haste from the dark Tale of teat s
And embrace our sweet babe in the wide spreading skies

N MUCH TO SAY, YET TRUTH TO SAY IT."—REC
OLLECTIONS OF A LIFETIME. OR MEN AND THINGS
I HAVE SEEN IN EUROPE' AND AMERICA,
By S. G. Goormicu, the veritable "Peter Parley," author of
-4, The History of all Nations," &c., Sm. In two volumes,
150 pp. large 12mo. 25 engravings, including an acctirate
Steel Portrait of the Author. Price, Black or Scarlet
Cloth, $300; Scarlet cloth, gilt edges, $4; Half calf, mar
ble edges, $5; Gilt Edges, $7.
This work embraces the prominent public events of the
last half century, both at home and abroad; a complete
autobiography of the author—his early days, education,
and literary career; and an amount of original, curious,
and valuable personal incident, anecdote and description,
seldom, if ever, met with in a single work. It is the au
thor's life-long work, and nothing superior if equal to it
in blended amusement and instruction, has ever been pub
lished. Mr. Goodrich is the author and editor of 170 vol
umes, of which seven millions of copies have been sold!
and this the great work of his life time, embodies the con
densed substance of his ample literary and practical expe
rience; the war with England in 1812-14, in which Mr.
Goodrich was a private soldier; the Hartford Convention,
whose operations took place under his immediate observa
tion, and with most of the members of which ho was per
sonally acquainted. Embracing curious and interesting
details respecting old Jeffersonian Democracy, Old Feder
alism, and Connecticut Blue Lights; curious and marvel
lous events connected with the rise and progress of reli
gious sects in the United States; with descriptions of the
French Revolution of 1838, and Louis Napoleon's Coup
d'Etat, both of which the author witnessed. Also, a full
account of the 'Peter Parley's Tales,' of which four mil
lions have been sold.
In the course of the work will be found pen and ink
portraits of over Two Hundred celebrated persons—Presi
dents, Vice-Presidents, Kings, Queens, Emperors, Soldiers,
Poets, Wits, Enthusiasts, Physicians, Lawyers, Politicians,
Diplomatists, &c.—all described from personal acquaintance
or observation. For sale by

From the earliest period to the present time, the history

given. Dy S. G. Common, author of several works of His
tory, 'Peter Parley's Tales,' &c.
It is believed that the above work will be very accepta
ble to the American public. It is the result of years of
toil and labor, assisted in his researches by several scholars
of known ability, and has been got up at a great expense
by the proprietors. No pains have been spared in the ex
ecution of the Illustrations and Maps, which are prepared
expressly for this work. Indeed, all the other historical
writing of Mr. Goodrich, sink into insignificance, wlw.n
compared to this, the result of his riper and maturer years.
It is admitted that one hundred dollars could not puraliase
the same matter in any other shape, and the publishers
confidently expect, in consideration of the great literary
value of the work, the large sum expended in preparing
it for the press, and the exceedingly moderate price at
which it is offered, that it will be favorably received by
every lover of good books. Many of our first scholars, di
vines and gentlemen. who have examined the work. have
given it their unqualified approbation and commendation,
which it richly deserves.
