Excerpt from Volume of Various Verse

The name of Charles J. Colton, subscribed to verses in various newspapers of this country, notably in the New Orleans times-democrat of Mr. Page M. Baker, has, for a number of years, attracted the widest attention and furnished to a great body of readers the most genuine enjoyment. That these verses have struck the popular chord is attested by the extent to which they have been reproduced. Bridget, bringing in the early breakfast, has been equally careful to bring in the morn ing paper, and, like as not, the first thing turned to was the head of the All Sorts column wherein most of the shorter verses have appeared, and where the searcher might be sure to find some whimsical fancy dancing to the lilting measure our poet knows so well.
