H. Of the author of this song some account was given in a preceding number of the _Mirror_. It was written on the same occasion as the _Patriot's Call_, when Napoleon invaded Germany, and was intended to tranquillize all petty feelings of jealousy between the separate German states.

[1] We suspect this to be the burthen of a beautiful Quintett which we heard sung _thrice_ the other evening at Covent Garden Theatre, in Mr. Planche's pleasing "Romance of a Day."--ED. [2] Emperor of Austria. * * * * * THE SELECTOR; AND LITERARY NOTICES OF _NEW WORKS_. * * * * * |
