MR. POE ON THE POETS. — The repetition of Mr. Edgar Poe's lecture on the Poets of America, would have drawn together a large auditory, at the Society Library, last evening, had there not have been falling a most dismal rain, at the hour appointed. As it was, perhaps the audience may fairly be said to have made up, in discrimination and respectability in taste and judgment, what it lacked in numbers. — Express.
These remarks are followed by others, in which Mr. Poe's lecture is formally criticised. Did Mr. Poe deliver his lecture to the editor of the Express alone? We know some people who went there and heard Mr. Poe postpone the lecture to another evening.
