The Emigrant ' s Tale , a Poem . By James Bird . ( 7 . ) Petit Tableau Litte ' raire de la France . P . F . Merlet . A Londres Wilson , 1833 . ( 8 )
A Treatise on Heat . By Dr . Lardner . ( Cabinet Cyclopaedia , vol . 39 . ) ( 9 . ( ) 7 . ) To the ' tale' which is told in Mr . Bird ' s flowing verse , are appended , amongst other small poems , some poetical metropolitan sketches / And truly the author is right in his notion that , not only the Thames and the Tower , but many other things in London , have poetry in them . He may , pleasantly for his readers , elicit more of it .
( 8 . ) A supplementary compilation to the ' traducteur , * which , together with the admirable French Grammar of M . Merlet , was recommended in our Number for December , 1830 .
