Webster.

An Ode. By WILLIAM CLEAVER WILKINSON. 1782-1852. Super-royal 8vo, pp. 122. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons. 1882.

Daniel Webster was, with the single exception of Jonathan Edwards, the greatest intellect known in American history, a great statesman, and a great orator. But neither poetry or prose can undo the fact that in the greatest moral battle of the century he was untrue in the most trying crisis to the cause of freedom and righteousness. Nothing, alas, can erase Whittier's "Ichabod.” Harper's Young People, 1882. Imperial 8vo, pp. 848. New York: Harper & Brothers. 1882.
