"Coller's Playa of Shakespeare, with the emen-
cations, is noble volume of SS4 pages, with as
handsoms and as legibe type could be de-
sired. Il came to me from London last week, and
seems a treasure. The authentic portrait of the
bard, the dedications OF the hrst editors, the
lest commendatory verses, and the fac .imie of a
portion Of a page of the corrected folio of 1882, of
which Collier awaited himselfs enhance it's value
and interest. Mr. 5. Weller Singer, who is en-
gagged in editing an edition of Shakespeare in ten
octayos, has issued \ pamphlet entitled The Text
of Shakespeare, indicated from the interpretations
and corruptions advocated by John Paine Collier.

As she was head up the river, she had to proceed
nearly TO Canal street before she turned round,

was approached by the steamboat New Jersey,
