appeared TO object to in some manner.
aud there was little arguing of the
matter betwixt them-the father look
ing on with glimmering smile, as if he
could see in 1t something exceedingly
pleasant. The end was, that the tw O
young people carried the table together
manliestty 10 their extreme satisfaction.
In due time the rashcrs were done.
and, with store OF other wholesome
vIctuals were put on fair white cloth
that covered the table, and William
Shakespeare was pressed with blunt
courtesy by the father. and more win
ming responsiveness by the daughter. to
partake OF the fare set before him. This
he essayed to do with notable good
will. After this the blooming Anne
brewed goodly posset, and whilst they
were enjoying it. her father called on
her to sing him song, the which she
seemed httle-a very little to hesitate
upon, with sort of pretty coyness time
Out OF mind customary under similar cir>
cumstances-but after the handsome
youth had pressed her with an excellent
show OF rhetoric, she sung a dainty dit

pretty little Nightingale, and at least
one of the listnrrs thought it most ex.

away would needs have a song OF his
guest, to the which his daughter added
her entreaties SO prettily, the youthful
Shakespeare found it impossible to re-

conceit, which gained considerably in
admirableness by the manner of his sing

clear voice, came upon the air a very
river of melody. Whether the yeoman
liked the song could only be told by the
pleasure lurking in the corners OF his
mouth. aud shining quantity in his half,
closed eyelids, which might be interpre-
TED, he saw more in it than the singer

praises.

The majority of this committee, on the

; bring forward certain specific charges
f against Mr.. Pierpont, and conclude by
: submitting a series of resolutions, one OF
which contains the declaration, that the
| Rev John Pierpont, be and is hereby dis
: missed from the Pastoral care Of the Soci-
ETY. worshipping in Hollis Street, and
q that tn connection between him and this
k Society is hereby dissolved The minor
