SHAKSPERE SOCIETY.
The seventh annual meeting of the members of this
society was yesterday held at the rooms of the Royal
Society of Literature, in St. Martin's-place, Trafalgar-
square. The chair was taken at three o'clock by J.
Payne Collier, Esq., the editor of Shakspere, and director
of the society. Among the gentlemen present we ob-
served the Rev. W. Harness, James Prior, Esq., Peter
Cunningham, Esq., G. L. Craik, Esq., T. Hudson
Turner, Esq., R. Bentley, Esq., and Boyle Bernard,
Esq., &c.
The CHAIRMAN congratulated the meeting upon the
confidence which was continued to be reposed in the
Council. lie regretted the absence of Lord Ellesmere,
the President, and several other noblemen, who were
unavoidably absent. The members of the Council had
been latterly fully employed, several of whom had be-
come members of the committees for superintending the
management of the Shakspere property at Avon. The
Council had contributed 251. towards the funds required
for the purchase of the property, and he trusted that the
meeting would confirm that appropriation of the funds
of the society.
The SECRETARY read the report of the society, which
stated that the next issue to the society would be Inigo
Jones's Designs for Masques at Court, now first en-
graved from the original drawinc,s in the possession of
his Grace the Duke of Devonshire ; edited by J. R.
Planche and J. Payne Collier, with a new life of Inigo
Jones, by Peter Cunningham. From the statement of
accounts laid before the meeting, it appeared that the ex-
penditure had amounted' in the first year to 4161. 16s. 5d.;
the receipts, including the balance in hand on the 18th
of April, 1847, to 4941. 15s. 2d., leaving a balance in
hand of the sum of 771. as. 9d. The report recom-
mended the formation of a supplemental fund, to be
called the " Heywood and Dekker Fund," the subscrip-
tion to which should be ten shillings annually, for the
purpose of enabling the eommittee to bring forward from
time to time accurate and annotated reports of the playa
and poems of Thomas Heywood and Thomas Dekker.
Resolutions, approving the formation of this supple-
mental fund, and the contribution towards the purchase of
Shakspere's house, were unanimously agreed to.
The thanks of the society were awarded to the council,
auditors, and officers of the society, ifor their exertions
during the past year.
The five members who retired according to the rules
of the society were James Heywood, Esq., Iitt•ELSITI:
Bulwer Lytton, Bart., J. H. Markland, Esq.,
F.S.A., W.J. Thorns,Esq., F.S.A., and Thomas Wright, W
Esq. The vacancies were supplied by the el,eccthioenrieoef
the Rev. Alexander Dyce, Henry Hallam, Esq.,
Knight, Esq.,
Rev. H. M. MilratiD, 1.R.5., and the Right
Hon. Sir S. H. Rose, Bart.
The meeting then broke up.
