Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 238: January, 1873 But the question at once arises as to how far this change of form was the result of a change of political doctrines. Had the French people abandoned their republican principles as unsound or as impracticable, or had they rather been deceived into the belief that, while they were having an empire in form, they were in reality enjoying the benefits of a republic?

Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 90 The question is often started, whether advance in civilization and knowledge is favorable to poetry. It would be about as fair a question, whether the spring, summer, or autumn is the most favorable season for flowers. The only answer would be to ask, in turn, For what kind of flowers? If for anemones and violets, the spring; if for asters, the autumn. In like manner each stage of development has its poetry. In an age of external facts, when life has to do constantly with the outward, poetry will be objective. The epic and the drama both have their epoch here. But when life has become more internal, - when the outward affords little excitement, and the great struggles are carried on within the soul, - then poetry becomes subjective. As society advances, narrative poetry, or even prose fiction, has less place. It is in the imperfections of a wall, the crevices that time has made or unskilfulness has left, that the ivy and the wall-flower take their root. So an examination of the narrative literature of our own day would show that it has its root in the faults, not in the perfections, of our civilization.

Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 93 Art. I. - Reports of the Commissioner of the General Land-Office, 1858, 1859, 1860. Washington: Printed by the Public Printer. We have thought that literature - especially periodical literature - bestows its honors upon abstract and ancient topics to the neglect of the practical things of the present. It seems to recognize more dignity and importance in the controversies and strifes of barbaric nations, if time has only covered them with its venerable veil, than in the realities of our own day. The fine frenzy of the poet rarely condescends to people present scenes with its fair images; what little he gives us about contemporary men and things, is apt to be rhyme without inspiration. But this was not always so. It was a wise stroke of statesmanship in Augustus when he induced Virgil to write the Georgics. The charming pictures of the serene enjoyments of agricultural life which the great poet drew, inflamed the Roman people with new zeal for the labors of the soil, and once again restored fertility and verdure to fields which had long lain in barrenness and decay.
