The Author Of shnkesponre,s Plavs,

A St. Louis correspondent writes I'm dis
NAL den of an office on Chestnut street has Nebe
mlah Holmes, Esq, now Judge of the Supreme
Court OF this State, for the past fifteen years
been studying and preparing book to
prove that the plays OF Shakespeare we're written
by Lord Bacon. Judge Holmes has in his pos
session certain letters never before published
which are calculated to throw considerable pro
bsbillty IN his favor. The following interesting
piece OF history, not generally known, bears
upon that point. When Lord Bacon was So
licitor-Gener prior to his appointment as At
torney-General, he was requested by his Majesty
TO prefer charges against Lord Essex. Among
other allegations there was one declaring, that
ne was the author OF o certain seditious play
entitled Richard calculated to excite discomfort
and riot among good and loyal subjects Bacon
declined prosecuting the charges, using the fol-
lowing significant language :-'WheTeas it hath
been bruted about that myself am the author
of said play Of Richard, it would therefore be
exceedingly unseemly in me to pro,ecute him
for that which is charged upon me;' 80 that even
in Bacons day the theory was prevalent. | un
derstand the work will be issued by the River
side press in the course OF month or So"

HEAVY ENBBZZLEMENT BY A BooK-KREPER IN
WmLIAMsBUEG.-Ah heavy embszzlement, inyolv-
ing some $4,000, was recently discovered in
Williamsburg The accused is named Joseph
Bordeau, "a years OF age, and a native OF Troy,
NY. His mother resides in CeoK street, near
Broadway, and depended on HIM almost solely
Bordeau %had for the past six months, been
in the employ of Mr.. William L. Wood, proprie-
tor of the steam soap and candle works, Nos.
u, IA, and 7S Graham avenue, as boek-keeper,
in which position he was entrusted with the
handling of all the funds of the establishment.
He applied himself assiduously to business, and,
studying the interest Of his employer, soon sue
ceeded in gaining his entire confidence. Lat
tetly, however, he became somewhat dsspated,
and did not attend to his duties as regularly as
during the first few months
Mr.. W ood suspected nothing wrong, however
but becoming rather short Of funds he proceeded
to the Williamsburg City Bank on the oath ult.,
to draw some money, when he discovered, to
his astonishment that the account had been
eVerdrawn Returning to the office he demanded
an explanation, but receiving no satisfactory
response, gave Bordeau until the following
Monday to clear the matter up.
Beng aware Of his inability to do so Bordeau
started off for parts unknown on Sunday even
ing leaving letters for his mother and late en-
ployer, stating that he had appropriated funds
unlawfully to the amount OF about $1,000, and
asking their forgiveness. On reading the letter
addressed to him, Mr.. Wood proceeded to make
an examination OF the accounts, and ascertained
that his loss was much greater than stated by
Bordeau,; to the extent of, perhaps, $4,000 or
$4,000.
The last heard Of the delinquent he was at
Reading, Pa, having written to his mother that
he was sick ana in need Of funds. She answered
it by inclosing twenty dollars, having. been
under the necessity OF dsposing Of some house
hold goods in order to enable her to do so. She
subsequently, sent an additional sum, obtained
from man who owed her son $500 ON a gam
bling debt. Mr.. Wood refuses TO take any action
against him, believing that he will reform and
again become an honest man. 1t appears tha
Bordeau lost all the money he thus fraudulently
obtained by gamblng.-Relo York Commercial

fire, and before the flames were extinguished n
considerable portion of the floor and roof was

caused by incendIarism. This property was
recently sold at sherif's sale, and the Company
have thus far been unsble to secure its redemp-

the Company for that purpose by the City Coun

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

During the past two weeks, our job
printing office has received quite num-
her of orders from North Carolina. This,
perhaps. it would not become us to men,
tion, so long as our Office, extensive as
its facilities are, is always some days be-
hind its orders, only as evidence that
something il going on in the old North
State. Elizabeth city is certainly not
asleep in u mercantile way, and the
preparations being made for a grand
tournament and ball at that place, de-
nonstrate that social engagements are
not lost sight of though business may
be most exacting in its demands.
We have also, from MurfreesborO', the
circular of the Wesleyan Female Col
lege, Rev. James o. Coulling, President,
and Hon. w. N. Smith, President OF
Board of Trustees, with all the requi-
site Professorships filled in manner to
render it successful and popular insti.
tuition, such az 1t was before the war, and
such as it will be again. At Hartford
Doctors Smith and ShannOnhOuse issue
their circular, offering their professional
services TO the citizens of Hertford anC
surrounding country. When the cana
is re-opened, as it will be the last of the
present week, notwithstanding, some
who ought to be the friends of Norfolk
have endeavored to create an impression
abroad that such an event would take
place at q day far distant, we shall b
more accessible, in a business way
again, to our North Carolina neighbors
We would not forget in mentioning these
matters, to thank our friends in this city
who have given so many of the parties
strangers to US, safe conduct to this o.
flee, whereby giving usthe opportunity

ROwDY BOYS. Sabbath appears to be
a fixed day for the gathering of the
clans, particularly about the locality OF
Roanoke square and Little Water street.
All the ragged and idle boys in the city
white and black, labor under the de-
fusion that Sunday is the most appro-
pirate occasion for grand brawl. Yes
terday about two o'clock, number OF
whites and blacks, engaged in regular
pitched battle, on Main street, at the
head of Roanoke square. The language
and approbious epithets used, were well
calculated to blister ordinary mouths
During the engagement, bricks, stones
and other missiles were freely used, with.
out regard to life or limb of the peaceful
and more devout passers. Is this youth
full depravity to be continued? Have pa
rents, lost all care or consideration for
their children? AS to the cOlOred por-
ton of the population, it appears that no
control over their morals are necessary.
They are finished.

NORFOLK, VA, January IL, 1856. Are
ave to have goods in bond or is our Gus.
tom House to be used as o Store-hoatse
Quite q number of merchants, assem-
bled at the Custom House, for the pur-
pose Of buying brandy. After having
waited an hour, they were informed that
the sale was postponed for one week. Is
this the way to trife with merchants
time-to say nothing of the humbug APP
parent throughout the whole matter?
The brandy is not in bond, nor in tho
hands of the Custom House officers; but
lies In the Custom House on storage. Is
Norfolk, now that new era is opening
before her, to be ruined by old fogyism
I would ask any merchant of what use
is our Custom House to our trade If we
cannot take our goods from bond as we
need them. The merchandise in bond
ia worth to merchants from five to ten
Der cent. over any purchases they can
make in any market as when the
goods are offered to purchasers, by sam
Die, as lying in bond, they obtain high
tone and character that they would not
otherwise carry. Thus this brandy,
which is offered for sale next week, by
not being bonded depreciates In value
at least from ten to twenty-five per cent.
If the British Consul ut this post cannot
study the interests of Norfolk, let US
cause him to be removed at once. We
want no man to hold office among us,
who has not the interests of our city at
heart. Our right as merchants, and
citizens is, that goods may lie in bond
that we may take them therefrOm as we
find purchasers paying the gold
duty at the time. If the British Consul
cannot give the requisite bond, / would
suggest that we raise the funds by sub
scription to help him through, and pro-
tect our own interests until we can have
another man IN his place, which can
easily be done. l would like to know II
brandies or other goods can legally be
stored in our Custom House without
having been bonded. II the building
can be devoted to such purpose, should
like to use part of it, In which to store
my liquors. / hope the gentlemen who
propose to buy the brandy will unite
in compelling the British Consul to put
the brandy in bond or carry it away
This can be done by refusing to buy al
his sale or at his terms.
