THE POETS AND POETRY OF AMERICA. — Mr. Edgar A. Poe, so favorably known in many quarters as a Critic, lectures to-morrow evening, at the Society Library. To Mr. Poe's numerous admirers this announcement will be sufficient, and to those who may not have come within the sphere of his influence we recommend an attendance upon the lecture of this evening. Mr. Poe has shown himself to be a poet of no mean order, and it may hence be concluded that he will freely sympathize with the “Poets and Poetry of America.”.
