ther," and in the "Cid" of Corneille that touching elegy of "La Fille du Cid." "An able writer, still more a writer of good sense than a writer of genius, he gave up all to poetry except the laws of grammar; he was early nurtured with the strongest and most serious studies; meditative, diffident, loving retirement, happy in the charming solitude of his family! One dares not say how old he was when he died. One dares not calculate all the noble thoughts inclosed in that noble heart, all the beautiful verses contained in that head which its black locks still shaded. He lived without other renown than poetic renown, without other ambition than success derived from the theatre he died in the midst of praise and universal lamentation. Weep for him, you who love fine verses, tender thoughts, wit without gall, grace without affectation; weep for him, you who love a laborious life, well-earned glory, domestic virtues, salutary examples, proud spirits, upright minds; simplicity with talent, the sweet and calm good humour which arises from a quiet conscience and from duties fulfilled. He dies still young; but his life has been a full one, but his name cannot die, but he leaves his masterpieces behind him, and even, for in this revolution of July all ought to be pacific, in the popular works of our poet we find the song of glory and of pardon for the revolution of July. Signal honour of a song of triumph under which the calmest and most loyal poet of France has found his repose. He is no more! Lyons, the hospitable city, has accompanied him to her gates, to which he was lost with regret. Paris, which has so loved him, expects him after to-morrow to bestow on him funeral rites worthy of our gratitude, our regret, our reverence."

J. F. KIND.

July At Dresden, in his 76th year, the once popular German novelist and dramatist, J. Friedrich Kind.

He was born at Leipzig, March 4, 1768. His productions are so exceedingly numerous, amounting altogether to some fourscore volumes, that nothing but a first-rate reputation could keep the mass of them from sinking into oblivion, especially as they are of a class whose readers require the stimulus of novelty. He was most of all successful in his tales and shorter narratives, which have the recommendation of being of unobjectionable moral tendency. Among his dramatic pieces, his "Van Dyk's Landleben" is the most esteemed, but "Der Frieschütz" the only one which produced a sensation in the theatrical world, by being

mar

ried" to the music of Weber. He died on the night it was performed in the Royal Theatre at Dresden for the 186th time.
