Sllakspeare's Bust.

The exact time when the Stratford
bust was made cannot be ascertained
but it was probably not long after his
death, in 1916, and it was certainly be-
fore the publication of the collected
edition of his works in 1923, IN which
it is mentioned. The sculptor, if he
deserved the name, was unknown till
recently, when it was discovered that
he was one Gerard Johnson, Holland
er, who settled in England where he
set up as a tomb-maker, employing,
besides himself, "A Iurmen, prenti-
ces, and l Englishman. He is
supposed to have followed, in making
the bust, a cast of Shakspeare's face,
taken after death. and to have followed
it blindly. He IS also supposed to
have injured the nose by careless CHS
cling, which compelled him to shorten
it, and to lengthen theupperl lip, which
is out of proportion with the rest of
the face, being at least an inch and
quarter long. Such as 1t was, and is,
the Stratford bust has surmounted the
grave of Shakespeare for two hundred
and fifty years. Britton, the antiquary,
described it, as follows, III 1916:
The bust is the size Of life; it is
formed out of block of soft stone, and
was originally painted over in imitation
of nature. The hands and face were of
flesh color, the eyes of light hazel, the
hair and beard auburn; the doublet or
coat was scarlet, and covered with a
loose black gown, or tabard, without
sleeves; the upper part of the cushion
was green, the under part crimson, and
the tassels gilt. Such appear to have
been the original features of this i'm
portant, but neglected or insulted bust
After remaining in this state above one
hundred and twenty years, Mr.. John
Ward, grandfather of Mrs. SiddOns and
Mr.. Kemble, caused it to be repaired,
and the original colors preserved, in
174S, from the profits of a represent
alton of Othello. This was generous
and apparently judicious act; and,
therefore, very unlike the next alters-
ton it was subjected to III 1893. In
that year, Mr.. Malone caused the bust
to be covered over with one or more
coats OF white paint; and thus at once
destroyed its original character, and
greatly injured the expression of the
face. The bust has now been restored
to its last coat of color, Mr.. Hahn Fris-
well assures us, and the clerk who
shows it AYERS that, with the exception
of very little retouching, it is now in
the same state in which it was left by
Mr. Hall, the Inner of Stratford.

MEMPHIS THEATER. -Another crowded
house last evening greeted the appear
ance Of Oliver Doud Byron in his sem
sational melo-drama entitled Across the
Continent. There was marked i'm
provement in the working Of the piece
over that of Monday night. Across the
Continent was uproariovsly applauded
by the audience, and it may be set down
as popularized in our midst. Mr.. Byron
evidently took greater pains to please
than on his first appearance, and re-
ceived well merited applause. Actors
occasionally become careless before I'M
known audiences, but the public are
generally fastidious critics, whether in
New York or in the West. The opening
scene in the Five Points was well rem
dered, as indeed were all the acts of the
drama. For true dramatic effect, the
second act must be accepted as leading,
especially the scene in the underground
parlor," where the Bohemian eutcasts
and the Italian street Arabs were
grouped with striking effect. Mr.. Ran
forth has shown himself to be versa
tile actor, sustaining three difficult roles
with ability. His "Bowery boy is true
to life, and never fails to bring down the
house uproariously. Miss Taylor as a
song and dance artist was pleasing and
attractive and had to accept several en-
cores. Miss O'Connor, as Agnes
Constant and " Louisa Goodwin"
acquitted herself admirably, if the
applause of the audience is any critic
rion to go by. The Jack Adderly, alias
Ellerton," of Mr.. Book, is certainly too
tame to be effective, and too stiff to De
appreciated. By throwing little more
life and feeling into the part it would be
wonderfully improved Take it all in
ALL Across the Continent may be re-
garded as a success, notwithstanding
the incongruities of the plot and bar
ronness of the dialogues. 1t continues
to draw well, and this may be truly con-
sidered as test of popularity. Across
the Continent will again be presented
this evening, and tomorrow evening the
California sensation, Ben Mccullough,
will be put on the stage.

MEMPHIS. TENN. October 2. 1872.
The increased sales of cotton has, to greai
extent, had the effect TO make money mattesl
more easy, but there is yet pressing demand
from nearly all branches Of trade, and plan.
ters, who have as yet sent but little cotton
to market. are still calling upon their mer-
chants for currency. The banks are no more
liberal, however, than for the past two weeks,
and some seem inclined to think that there
will be a stringency until the close of the
present month, and advise their planting
friends to assist their merchants now by ship
ments, while Others are of the opinion that
the worst is over. Rates of discount are
steady at 10 q cent. v annum at the banks,
and upon the street the rate quoted to-day is
4 cent. d month on first-class paper.
Exchange is in better supply. and the offer
ings of cotton bills increased daily. Rates as
yet are steady buying at &c discount on prom
inent points, and 70 on outside places, and in
selling. Eastern checks &c premium is the
rate asked
Gold is in better demand, from the fact that
the New oTk rate is steady at Has, and deal
ers advanced their buying rates &c over those
paid yesterday; ll3 was paid to-day for $500.
and for 500 silver in halves and quarters l0I
was paid.
Local securities seem to be more active, and
capitalists are just now turning their attention
10 them as an investment. A few State Comp
troller's warrants were sold at 901ze, and 5000
city bonds, with the July coupon, were sold
BY dealer at 53l4c. and another purchase OF
5000 is reported at 53c.

THE RIVERS AND WEATHER.
The river rose three inches since our last
report, and will probably. in all. go up foot
ormore yet. The condition of the principal
streams are given in the Signal Bureau state
ment above. The late rains on the upper
streamswere deceptive, and instead of caus-
ing general rise, as was expected, had the
effect only to swell the streams an inch or two.
The Illinois is at a stand, with three feet of
water, and the Missouri is showing her sand
beds rather too eonspieuously to suit steam
boatmen. Red river is falling. The Yazoo
has total rise of eight feet. The Ouachita is
dead low, and declining. White river has
three feet to Jacksonport. and isfalling. The
Arkansas has twenty-four inches below Little
Rock, and is falling. The weather continues
clear and cool.
