This great and distinguished assembly is to it self an imposing tribute to the memory of an illustrious man. But even more impressve than this presence of genius and distinction of charac ter and intelligence is the absence of one citizen, that vene*™’\ ■ figure which, had come to repre sent in this community all the civic graces and virtues, and from whose temperate lips on every occasion of literary and patriotic commemora tion, of politieal emergency or of public appeal, ■we have been accustomed to hear the fitting words of counsel, of encouragement and consola- When Irving followed Cooper, aU hearts turned .< to Bryant, and it was before this society and in lathis place that he told the story of Irving’s life. Now Bryant has followed- Cooper and Irving, thelastof that early triumvirate of American literature, not less renowned than the great tri umvirate of American politics, and he whose life began before the century, leaves behind but one of his early literary contemporaries. The vener able poet Dana, friend of Bryant’s youth, a t an age prolonged beyond fourscore and ten, “ An old age serene and bright. And lovely as a Lapland night,\ the editor who published “ Thanatopsis ” sixty- one years ago has seen its author join the innu merable caravan and lie down to pleasant dreams. Bat a thousand eloquent and reverent voices of the press and the pulpit, of the coUej upon ms alTna -mater, a I he always smiled. The hannless verse survives, I beUeve, only to the recollection of the Rev. Dr. Hallock, son of the Plainfield pastor, who fitted Bryant for college. But Dr, Hallock, with delicate fidelity to the fame of his college and his friend, has locked it fast to his memory and jealously guards the key. Upon leavmg Williams, Bryant had hoped to go with his chum to Yale College, but his father found that the cost would be too great, so the youth returned to bis father’s bouse and voted himself for a year to the classics mathematics. This was the end of Bryant’s schooling, and this was all the visible preparation for the writing of the first enduring poem in American literature, the work, indeed, from which that literature distinctively dates; the poem which m :rature distinctively i the after, rii>er fruit was never surpassed. The marvel of “ Thana topsis ’’ is the greater, because, although a stogu- arly mature and precocious boy. there, is no es; the poen 8 of the poet’s geniu vel of “ ’fhana __ precocious boy. there, i IryanPs earlier versM, flowing and _ rect as they are, of original power.

A patriarch of our literature, and in a permanent sense the oldest of onr poets, a scholar familiar with many lan guages and literature, finely sensitive to the in fluence of natore, and familiar ^ t h trees, and birds and flowers, he was especially f i t t ^ it might be thought, forsehoiarlv seclusion and the dehghts of the strict literary \life. But he who melodiously marked the solitaiy way of the water-fo-wf through the r o ^ depth of the glow ing heaven, and on the lonely New England ’ “ Kock-ribt>ed and ancle' ' as the sun,” saw to river and valley, to forest and ocean, only the solemn decoration of man’s tomb—the of the Styx to charm, t trable armor of moral prtocfple.

The great hiUs are still largely covered with woods that shelter the solitary pastures and upland farms; woods beautiful to spring with the white laurel and azalea, ringing through the short summer with the song of the hermit thrush and the fuU-choired music of New England birds; and to autumn h azing with scariet and gr>ld of the changing leaf, until the cold splendor of tl ■< snowy ivinter closes the year. All trace of the house in which Bryant was bom is gone; but the broad landscape that the hoy saw remains, softened now by tillage and orcharte, but a grave, solitary landscape The region was soon familiar to him. Not vhen Dr. Bryant, then a membe ture, finding the poems to his drawer, s __ them, anonymou-sly, and without his son’s know ledge, to the 'North American Review, which had then been published for two years, and was at once a review and a magazine. Mr. Dana, who was one of the editors, imme diately recognised the worth of the poem, and said truly, what no man was more qualifled chan he to declare, that it could not have been writtv.n in this country, Kr he knew no American who could write it. He was told that the author was a member of the Legislature, and he hastened to the Senate Chamber, where Dr. Bryant was point ed out to him. “ Tis a good head,” he said, \ but I do not see ‘Thanatopsis’^there.” The poem was pub lished to the September number of the Haoiew in 1817, and it is preceded by a separate poem of four stanzas which were attached to it by mis take. Then tone is that of the same melancholy fascination with death, but they axe in a wholly different key. \Thanatopsis” itself, as ongmally printed, contained but forty nine of the eighty- one lines that wo know, and it was accompanied by three of the manuscripts which the doctor had found in his office drawer ; the Inscription for the Entrance to a Wood, and two translations from Horace. This is all we know about the production of this poem. 1 linger upon i t because it was without a harbinger in our literature, and without a trace ‘ f the English masters of the hour. It was the first adequate poetic voice of the solemu new England spirit, and in the grandeur of the hills, in the heroic PMritan tradition of sacrifice and endurance, in the daily life, saddened by itnpe-* r.ous and awful theologjc dogma, in the hard cir cumstance of the pioneer household, the contest with the walderness, the grim legends of Indians and the war, have we not some outward clew to the strain of “ Thanatopsis,” the depthless and entrancing sadness, as of inexm-able fate, that umnnurs like the autumn wind through the torest in the melancholy cadences of this hymn ‘ Deatheath ?

ADMITTED TO THE BAS. When “ Thanatopsis” was published Bryant was already a practising lawyer. He had began his studies with Judge Samuel Howe, of Worthing ton, near Cummington, who, when he found a volume of Wordsworth to his student’s hmiis, warned him that such reading would sp lil his style, and he was admitted to the bar at Ply mouth to 1815.
