Professor Charles Eliot Norton, in the same way, has prolonged and enhanced the literary eminence of his name, as did Professor F. H. Hedge and Tutor William Everett. Other instanis more curious than the impression held by some of Lowell's English friends — even, it is said, that most intimate friend to whom his letters are dedicated by Mr. Norton--that the Hosea Biglow dialect was that of Lowell's father, family, and personal circle. All who know anything of the period know that the speech of educated fliterary circle of which Longfellow was the centre; and the centre of the Cambridge circle, so far as the little town itself was concerned, he surely was. Professor Norton has left on record the perfect frankness with which Lowell and himself criticised the final revision of Longfellow's Dante, with a freedom that was made perf

There is not, I think, in all Mr. Norton's delightful collection of Lowell's correspondence anything quite so thoroughly local, or giving so close a glimpse of Old Cambridge. The editor's preface is aghly, to respect crockery and varnish, and to cultivate self-reliance. The copious letters written by Lowell to Charles F.
