Excerpt from Poems, on Various Subjects, Religious, Moral, Sentimental and Humorous The Editors of Public Journals have been pleased to express their spontaneous sentiments in favor of some of the poems in the following work. From a multiplicity of complimentary remarks, and public notices, the subsequent ones are extracted. "In the following, as well from the initials W. R. as from the elegant flow of genius, we recognize the pen of the distinguished American poet, William Ray. Esq." Palladium of Liberty. "The Sacred Melodies of Byron and Moore, have been much admired, and many of them very justly: but we do not recollect one of them, and we have read them all, which we think superior to the following, which is avowedly from the pen of William Ray." Plough-Boy. "The following beautiful lines are from the pen of William Ray, Esq. of Onondaga. whose poetical effusions have often delighted the public, and whose genius and taste ought to have secured to him the smiles, instead of the sternest frowns, of Fortune." New -York Statesman. "The following poem is from the pen of William Ray, that favorite of genius and son of misfortune." Albany Register. "Mr. Ray, as a poet, possesses genius of no ordinary cast. Many of his effusions, humorous, moral and sentimental, we have read with great pleasure, and we have no doubt he will make an interesting volume. New-York Spectator.
