HAYNE’S POEMS. The welcome accorded to the first edition of the “Poetical Works of Paul H. Hayne,” has led to the publication of a new edition.  The critical estimate of Mr. Hayne’s works, favorable from the outset, accords him a place among the few American writers whose works are likely to have a permanent place in public favor.  As has been appreciatively said, “He is a songster of the Southern groves, and having built a nest in the wild wood (referring to his country home at Copse Hill), he is content in the companionship of his mate and his young, warbling to nature and to nature’s God.  If his notes reach beyond his sylvan hall, and fall upon ears without its wall, and plaudits of approval come in return, he trills responsively a grateful melody, and resumes his solo as he would do had no encore greeted him.”  Cloth, $4.00, Morocco, $7.00.

In the same attractive bindings, are the following complete Works of FAMOUS POETS at uniform prices, extra cloth, full gilt, $3.00.  Morocco, full gilt, $6.00.
