gave a fine exhibition, while the Norwe-

heartiest applause. Others who appeared

shakspere's Contemporaries.

In connection with Shakspere still is |
the following, showing the curious at |
tltude OF his contemporaries toward |
him:
1t seemed to his own friends that they
appreciated his amiable, easy talent at its
proper value; he was gentle SHAKESPEARE
to them: and they loved the man and
they were ready to borrow freely from his
poetry. But that he excelled them all in
every poetical artifce, soaring above
them all like an elm in a coppice of
hazels, this, had it been whispered at
the Mermaid, would have aroused smiles
| of derision.
| The authors are not without a sense
| OF humor,, which crops out here and
! there, as In Mr.. Garnett's allusion to
/ the miracle plays: THE representation
/ passed the powers of the scenic artists
I of that period, but they were perfectly
at home in hell, and especial pains were
