-two wagons and many stragglers; the Zouaves came to us at Williamsport; the First Vermont joined the column at Winchester, with six pieces of artillery, in time for the fight; and General Hatch united with me in a few hours, as will appear. Major Collins of the cavalry, with three companies, attempted after dusk to proceed up the road towards Middletown, intending to turn off where the main body under Hatch left the pike; but mistaking the point, dashed upon a barricade of wagons, and was rec told me he had been set upon in strong force; that a portion of the rear of our train, such stores as were left at Cedar Creek, and such forces as had not haply escaped, had been captured. Hatch dwelt with much feeling upon the mistake made by Collins of the cavalry in charging upon the enemy's barricade; his losses were mourned with more than an ordinary expression of sorrow. The charge of the rear properly belonged to General Hatch, for two reasons: it had been assigned to him by Banks; an

. But our Revolution, in truth, never had an adequate poet. The prose-men, such as Jefferson, rose nearer the height of the great argument than did the men of rhyme. Here and there the struggle inspired a brisk ballad like Francis Hopkinson's Battle of the Kegs, a Hudibrastic satire like Trumbull's McFingal, or a patriotic song like Timothy Dwight's Columbia. Freneau painted from his own experience the horrors of the British prison-ship, and celebrated, in cadences learned from Gray and Collins, the valor of the men who fell at Eutaw Springs. There was patriotic verse in extraordinary profusion, but its literary value is slight, and it reveals few moods of the American mind that are not more perfectly conveyed through oratory, the pamphlet, and the political essay. The immediate models of this Revolutionary verse were the minor British bards of the eighteenth century, a century greatly given to verse-writing, but endowed by Heaven with the prose-reason mainly.

Lord Brougham was engaged to pass this evening and to-morrow with the Bishop of Carlisle, about seventeen miles off; so I took my leave. He was busied in his studies, with a quire of manuscripts before him, and with five or six books open on top of each other, the upper one being Greek; I thought it the Orations of Demosthenes.
