TO THE EDITOR OF THE CHRISTIAN EXAMINER.
Sir,
The following are two poems lately received from Mrs Hemans. In a letter accompanying the first, she says;—'I have just composed a few lines on reading a description in one of our papers of Washington's statue by Chantry. Its being sent from England to America, now that we may hope that all feelings of animosity are yielding to kindlier and more brotherly sentiments, is a most striking and interesting circumstance. The lines have not been published, nor will they at present appear in any English work, as I should wish them to reach my New England friends first.'—As the statue may be expected to arrive here about the time when the next number of the Examiner will appear, there can be no more appropriate season for their publication.
Cambridge, April 14, 1827.
