Excerpt from The Commoner Condensed
Number of the commoner. It is my favorite poem, and was brought to my attention by my father. The author of the poem, William Cullen Bryant, has clothed. A familiar theme in beauti ful language and so embalmed a noble sentiment that it will live and give inspiration for generations to come.

Excerpt from The Commoner Condensed
The Commoner, Condensed, is, as its name implies - a condensation of matter which has appeared in The Commoner during the first year of its existence. The first eighteen chapters contain editorials dealing with subjects of a permanent nature. These are reproduced without elimination or elaboration, and cover the important political, social and economic questions, which have come before the country during the year.
Following the principal editorials which have appeared in the paper under the titles given, is Chapter XIX., containing a selection of shorter editorials taken from what is commonly called the side-head page, the description having reference to the position of the head-lines. The next chapter contains selected editorial paragraphs which have appeared from time to time on the paragraph page. The first five pages of The Commoner are devoted to editorials - the first, second and third to those varying in length from one-fourth of a column to several columns, the fourth to paragraphs, and the fifth to side-heads. As the paragraphs and side-heads usually deal with more transient themes, only a small proportion of them will be found in this volume.
Chapter XXI. contains selected matter from Mr. Will M. Maupin's department entitled, "Whether Common or Not." Mr. Maupin's contributions consist of poems, fables, dialogues, squibs and bits of philosophy. In his entertaining style he discusses matters political, matters social and matters sentimental. The extracts selected give a general idea of his style of writing.
Chapter XXII. contains a few poems which, because of their special merit, have survived the year in which they were written.
