The Mariher ; a Pom, in two Cantos •^By Archihidd Johnston: duodecimo, 152 pages. Sold by A. F. Ferguson, ATo. 136, Afain street, Cincinnati. 'fhe subject of this poem has been well chosen: tiie origin, process, utility, and hazards of the art of navigation, aflM an abundance of topics, which are susceptible of being treated with the highest poetical effect. 'Hie mere history of the art itself, is in the highest degree curious, interesting and instructive: and the life of a sailor is perliaps more fruitful in singular and perilous incidents and adventures, than the career of an individual in a^ other profession. But the author of “ The Mariner,” though he has given us an historical deduction of the art, from the earliest jieriod of its rude essays, down to the perfection which it has attained in our own country, has not conñned himself to matters strictly and exclusively nautical, but has indulged his discursive taste and ingenuity on a variety of topics, naturally connected with his main design. 'rhe poetical merit of the work, though considerable, is not in our opinion, of the highest order: it is not one of the s^ndard works of genius, that are destined to form a select body of American classics, to which our citizens may refer with pride and exultation, as the evidences of distinguished poetical and literary genius in tiieir countrymen. The great mass of the literature of every nation is not entitled to this enviable distinction. Pre-eminen merit implies a greater body of inferior worth. But tlie taste, the imagination, the patriotic sentiment, and the intelligence displayed in this poem, entitle it to & atr tention of the general reailer, and render it worthy of a place in the library of an American citizen. llie versification is generally very good, and in i^ome places uncommonly smooth, harmonious, and elegant; but m others, it is harsh and defective; and the author has too frequently been content with imperfect rhymes, which form very striking blemishes in polislied poetry, and whicli ouglit not to be tolerated in any thing but the burlesque. The volume condudes with a coliecrion of miscellaneous pieces, in some of which there is perhaps greater merit, than in any part of the principal productlou. There is one consideration, which ought never to be forgotten by the purchasers of books, and the patrons of literature in this country—it is the encouratsment, which ought to be ¡pYtn to the productions of American genius—not merely because they are written in this country; but be cause they Aou nd in. the sentiment and information, which an American citizen should p<»sess. They tend to establish an uniformity of principles and views in our citizens, and to create a national character, patriotic spirit, and turn of thinking, in harmony with our circumstances and republican institutions. It is for this reason a great misfbrtune to be without a national literature, 'fhe importation of our books from foreign countries, must necessarily cause our cJtipns to imbibe foreign*sentiment8 and prejudices, which are far from being congenial to our liberties and national mtwasts. From the circumstance of our literatiu^ being chiefly derived from Great Britain, OUT education and reading are better calculated in many respects to make us Bntish sul^ects than American citizens. It 18 in this way only, that we can account for the fach that so many of the most learned and intelligent men in the United States have been so deeply tinctured with British prejudices and partialities, It istiierefore highly imporhint, that we should become independent of Britain, and every other country, to as great a degree as possible, in this article: and although we may not yet be able to boast of works possessing the highest merit, which would enable us to dispense with the best works of foreign origin, yet we are fully competent to supply ourselves with’ works of that grade, which constitute tiie great mass of literature in every country. If American authors were properly encouraged by their fellow-citizens, they would soon give us such a supply of domestic literature, both in Suality and quantity, as would supersede ie importation and use of the great mass of British works, from which we now derive alike our information, amusement, and contamination.* 'Fhe American, who devotes the labors of his life, to achieve for his country this species of independence, is entitled to her warmest mtitude, and most liberal patronage. He contributes mwe effectually to her real independence and grandeur, tiuui the splendid hero of the sword, who is so liberally honored, and enthusiastically admired for his achievements in the field. The power of the sword can establish nothing more than our physical independence: it cannot make us free in mina and principle; it is reserved for the triumphs of domestic literature to enable us to think and fed as freemen. 'Fhe little volume, which is now under consideration, and every other American work of equal merit, is a valuable acquisition, under this view of the case. Large quantities of the light productions of the ¿ritish press, may be mund in our libraries, which are in no respect superior to it in literary merit, and to which it ought therefore unquestionably to be preferred.
