SHAKSPEARE'S ANNIVERSARY BIRTH DAY.--•
Upwards of two hundred gentlemen sat down to a sumptuous din-
ner on Monday, at the Shalcspeare Hall, Stratford, to commemo-
rate the birth of our immortal Dramatist. The Chair was taken
by Mr. Mills, in the absence of the Mayor, who was obliged to go
to London. The Anniversary of Shakspeare's Birth was on the
23d, but happening this year to fall on a Sunday, it was cele-
brated on the following day. The utmost harmony prevailed, and
many most excellent songs, duets, and glees, were sung by se-
veral members of the Shaksperian Society. .Of the songs sung on
the occasion, there were three original ones by Mr. Bisset, of
Leamington. 'Cannon were fired from Bancroft, and an excellent
band of music was placed in boats, during the morning, on the

Avon. •
A LAWYER OF SENTIMENT.—An English CoUIIS
sel, who was just about to take his place at the bar, was asked by
the Judge, " for whom was he concerned in the case about to

for this County, whose death we announced in our palsrof
Thursday last, took place in the family burying ground at
of New be

nobility and gentry of the county, and friends of the deceased.--;
The melancholy and sudden death of this highly accomplished en'
much respeited gentleman, who was cut off in the prime and ye:
gour of life, created a sensation of sorrow and regret he BU
the neighourhood, which bore ample testimony to the estinution
..
in which he was held by all ranks of society. Kind and fajosclo
