Biographical Sketch.

MISS MARY LOCKHART LAWSON is the author of many thoughtful and pleasing poems; and has been a frequent contributor to the Knickerbocker and Graham's Magazine, for the last five or six years. Her father, Mr. Alexander Lawson, was a native of Scotland, a gentleman of expansive intellect, a warm lover of nature and of art, and most remarkable for his skill as an engraver in natural history. He lived many years in Philadelphia, the birth-place of his daughter, whose affectionate veneration for his memory is expressed with much sweet simplicity in the following verses.
