ughly romantic temper he made himself a retreat by the falls of the Schuylkill, which he describes under the guise of Theodore, the Hermit, in his American magazine, noting the singular gloom of its situation, hidden by a romantic tuft of trees, and made more lonely by surrounding waters. He could soon announce in his magazine that he had almost too many poems to draw from. Practically all the verse in its thirteen numbers is original, although at times, especially in the long poems of James Sterling, the most conventional eighteenth-century manner is amusingly evident.

They were chased by pirates and stopped by searching parties, incidents Cooper nention once more to naval affairs, with which he busied himself during much of his remaining career. He wrote Lives of distinguished American naval officers （1842-5), and Ned Myers （1843), the life of a common sailor who had been with him on the Sterling. The History led to a furious legal battle, but generally Cooper left his quarrels behind him when he went upon the sea.
