ESSAYS AND SKETCHES, ll.—Shakspeeb in Love. Pouts have not always been successful in their love adventures. Tender, heart- Btirring verses are not the surest means of winning the hearts of young ladies ; poetry does not agree with some constitutions. It is only the more sentimental of the gentler sex that can be hired to the altar of Hymen by poetic, display and rhymed professions of everlasting fidelity ; most ladies prefer the outspoken man to the sentimental poet. On the other hand, we may affirm thai outward beauty and showy extravagance have but meagre attractions for the practical mind of man. The period of courtship in which the prime powers of leason and common sense should decide in the vernal business of love, is too often a period when these discretionary powers are allowed to slumber beneath the ' passion. Hence it often Imp 's ' Peus *jia^ so many wedded couples, iv their ' after lives, practically verify the old saying, "Marry in haste, and repent at leisure." Better, surely, the literary bachelorhood of Oliver Goldsmith, in the shadows of the Temple, studying natural history, than the stormy life of John Dryden, chaunting the " Hind and Panther, " beneath the frown of Lady Elizabeth. "I wish I were a book, John," said Mrs Dryden ; "I wish you were an almanac, my dear," replied the poet, '' that 1 might change you once a-year, Byron and Shelley experienced the bitters of the married state, while Wordsworth and Moore enjoyed its sweets. Other poets — C'owley, Grray, Pope, Thomson and Cowper— experienced the pangs of disappointed love, and most charmingly some of them,'especially Thomson and Cowper, wrote on conjugal felicity—a state of existence of which they could have no practical knowledge. Even the most callous of mortals — literally a woman-hater, if such there be—feels at times that he is on the dangerous precipice, and finds himself sighing— " The world was sad, the garden was a wild, And man, the hermit, sighed till woman smiled." Poets, with all their outpourings about beautiful eyes, bewitching smiles, and golden hair, rarely pine and die of love. This " divine passion" is one of those universal epidemics for which the family doctor has no immediate remedy, and, very wisely, the doctor refers such patients to the parish priest. Think of Shakspere, the world's greatest poet in love, wooing a rosy-cheeked country maiden by a cottage-gate, and gentle Willie, ■fre believe, did thus woo Anne Hathaway inkier the Shottery elms. Warwickshire is one of the prettiest of English counties, and j Stiatford is one of the quietest and certainly the most noted of its towns, for in Henley- j street, by the silver Avon, William Shakspere : was bom. There can be no doubt about the matter of Shakspere's birth-town ; nor of the sylvan village of Shottery, where he courted , Anne Hathaway. Often did the youth Shak- ' spere pace those flowery meadows by the \ river Avon, between Stratford and Shottery, when he was in love ! How lovely and im- j pressive where the scenes upon which he gazed, and which he re-produced with all \ their hues and meanings in his lively pages. The glow of sunset, the flower, the cloud, j the sky,—all had a language and a meaning for the spirit of that obscure Stratford stripling. Ever and anon he would step aside from the beaten path to pluck a fragrant | honey-suckle from the bordering hedge, or a wild rose ; or, from among the grass, a lady's mock, or an oxlip, and these, with a pansy and a twig of sweet-brier, he would fold into a nosegay for his Anne. The following extractfrom his poetical love-letter is supposed to have been written at this time, it is addressed to the '' Idol of mine eyes, and the delight of mine eyes, Anne Hathaway." : — When envy's breath and rane'rous tooth Do soil and bite fair ■worth and truth, And merit to distress betray, To soothe the heart Anne hath a way. She hath a -way to chase despair, To heal all grief, to cure all care, Turn foulest nights to fairest day, Thou know'st, fond heart, Anne liath a way; She hatli a way, A mie Hathaway To make grief bliss, Anne hath a way.

But were it to my fancy giv'n To rate her charing, I'd call them heaven ; For though a mortal made of clay, Angels must love Anne Hathaway; She hath a wan so to control, To rapture the imprisoned soul, And sweetest heav'n on earth display, That to.be heaven Anne hatKa way; She hath a. way, Anne Hathaway, To be heaven's self Anne hath a way. Shakspere could not find it in his large heart to be false to his country lass ; and we may fairly conclude that he was a faithful suitor. The house of Anne is still preserved in Shottery ; the people of that neighbourhood believe that Anne's cottage is the very same in which the poet wooed and won the maiden. There stands the wooden gate, not the same upon which Shakspere leaned and chatted in the sunsets of the summer of 1583; but one of its rustic successors. Shakspere did not write his autobiography, it was not the fashion to do so in the days of Queen Eliza beth. The censorious world therefore knows but little of the early life and youthful pro clivities of the Bard of Avon. He might have stolen deer from the domain of Sir Thomas Lucy; and have lampooned "Johnny Combe." Possibly, if local traditions are to be trusted, Shakspere might not have cared to immortalize his love-story with its unripe associations. The world then as now was prone to over statement with the busy faculty of expanding little things into great ones, and fairies into giants. Had the poet there fore " told his love" what a wicked poet he niight have been ; every sonnet would have reflected some personal indiscretion. Although in virtuous action he might have stood as far above his Warwickshire con temporaries as he soared above them in point of genius, as the consummate delineator of the passions, his confessed foibles would have been stretched to their utmost limits for the more perfect.shadowing of his intel lectual character. Shakspere has frequently pictured his pleasant Stratford memories m his inimitable plays. The oxlips grow by Avon's side, and in those dewy meadows the "daisies pied and violets blue" and "lady •mocks all silver white," and all the other forms which served his delicate pencil flourish in serene beauty. Shakspere married Anne in his nineteenth year. She was a little older, and, tradition says, his Earents were not favorable to the marriage, ove, however, laughs triumphantly_ at parental interference as well as at locksmiths ..^tai^except in a very few cases, where young possess a religious'sense of the duty of filial obedience. No poet has written so sweetly and truthfully of love as Shak spere. In many of his dramas are to be found passages redolent of poetic beauty ornamented with young love's most natural thoughts, affluent in heart-breathings, and sufficiently tender and expressive for the maddest and mildest of lovers. Shakspere wrote for humanity, and all men, whether in love or out of love, will find suitable mot toes in his pages for every condition and every circumstance. His delicious pastoral comedy "As you like it " is really a picture of love, and, no doubt, his early experiences were present to his mind when he wrote that sylvan romance. The forest of Arden repre- \ sents a real arcadia of a golden age ; the ' characters pass and repass before the mind's eye in rapid and diversified succession. The . Warwick Arden, we believe, whatever may ( be said to the contrary, was the Arden of '

tlie poet's drama. We see the deep, green forest, and breathe in imagination the pure English air of that locality. The hours in that dreamy paradise are measured by no time-piece— by no recurrence of duty and toil ; they flow on unnumbered in voluntary occupation or fanciful indolence. One re clines under "melancholy boughs," and moralizes on the changes of fortune, the falsehood of the world, and the self-created torments of social life. Others again make the woods resound with festive songs to the accompaniment of their horns ; and so the time goes on. Selfishness, envy, ambition, with all the deceit, iniquities, bustle, and care of crowded cities are outside this wooded arcadia. Of all the passions and excitements of weary mortals, love alone, the supreme influence, finds entrance into that breathing world of nature, and utters its one language to the simple shepherd who lounges among the daisies, and to the chivalrous youth who hangs his love ditty on the bush. Again, in Romeo and Juliet, Shakspere has drawn a picture of love in unsuspecting simplicity with all its trivial associations. We laugh at the playful lovers, at the frank confessions of Juliet, and the timid approaches of llomeo; while we exclaim, "it is all true, the Avorldis full of Eomeos and Juliets!" This comedy is, another I evidence of Shakspere's knowledge of I human nature, Witness the well-known ' night scene in the garden under the resplendent moon, How delightful ! how truthful is that scene ! There is foolish little Julia, like many a young girl, looking out at the sly window, with her many, many good nights. Romeo, like another Adam, walks in the cool of the evening ; he sees the adored face irradiated by moon beams, and sighs— It is my lady! Oh, it is my love Oh, that she knew she were !" But Juliet does know it, and immediately answers :—

Oh, gentle Romeo, If thou dost love, pronounce it faithfu' ly

He would swear he loves her ; swear by the blessed moon whose silver glances favor their stolen interview ; but she requests him not to swear by " the inconstant" moon "that monthly changes ;" but, if he must swear, to swear by himself, in whom she has the greater confidence. Then, their parting, what a lover's parting it is ! The pensive good night, how often it is repeated 1 So often, indeed, that, ere they part the freshening morning dawns ; and, in words which ardent lovers can understand, she says :—

— parting is such sweet sorrow, That I could say good night till it be mo;..w.

! Serious people smile at the sweet nonsense of Shakspere's lovers ; nevertheless, it is a picture of love in its earlier stages. The play, throughout, contains love's true philo sophy, as the sourest bachelor may know, if not by experience, by modern revelations of the sayings and doings of superficial Uomeos and Juliets who cool down on the right side of the parish church, and close their brief, Bui ny romance, with most ungracious looks ; while the fair one, having breathed her last good night, makes a business-like claim for a thousand pounds damages. Shakespere, like ordinary men, was in love ; but he was a true lover, although, individually, he has not told the rustic stoiy. When he paced those dewy meadows, still green and beautiful as when he gathered the wild-flowers, he did not dream of the universal fame which encircles his memory. He must have been, with all his greatness, an extremely modest man. He did not even publish his plays; they were pro duced by others after his death. The few recorded incidents of his life are remarkably scanty, and most of these are questionable. Shakspere's London life w pears to have been or a strugyimy iuicnre ; h« was not over rich as a player, but he loved the social glass with Ben Jonsou, his brother Edmund, and Edward Alleyne, who spent their evenings occasionally at the Boar's Head, Eastcheap, the home of Dame Quickly. "I will take mine ease at mine Inn" was an expression of Bhakspere's own feeling ; and we think he loved the easy hour in his favorite tavern. But an inn was a very different place of resort to the inn of these days ; and the drink wa3 of a much pure* kind than the abominable mixture which bring men before the modern Shallow in consequence of undue draughts. But where was Anne, the Shottery maiden ; alas, we cannot tell. Did Anne, in her married years, sit by some lonely London fireside, watching for Willies, return from the social tavern with rare Ben Jonson? At all events, Shakspere was not a spendthrift; he worked hard as an actor and play-wright ; and by diligence we believe he secured a competency. He won the favour of Queen Elizabeth, played in Windsor Castle; and at length he was enabled to retire with golden means into the neighbourhood of his eai-ly sports, follies and loves. The name of Shakspere is a world-wide name; but the true story of his experiences is lost in the abyss of time. Lord Bacon must have known somewhat of the dramatist and poet ; but makes no mention of his name. Was it that Shakspere was but a bankside player ? or that the light of his genius quenched the paler light of his life ? Bee.

POLICE COURT.

THIS DAY.

[Before Thomas Beckham, Esq., KM.] DRUNKENNESS.

Six drunkards were fined 10s each and costs. ABSCONDING FROM BAIL. Henry Cuthbertson was charged with at tempting to abscond from his bail. This prisoner had concealed himself on board the Nebraska, yesterday, at an early hour, but on being found after the vessel had put to sea he was sent on board the schooner Golden Isle, bound in, and handed over by the captain of her to the Water Police on arrival.

Captain Matzen, master of the Golden Isle, was sworn, and deposed that he passed the Nebraska yesterday morning bound for Honolulu. He afterwards observed that she had altered her course, and was steering towards Auckland. A signal was also hoisted which caused him to heave his vessel too, when he saw a boat lowered from the steamer and the prisoner was brought on board his schooner with instructions to deliver him to the police on arrival at Auckland as a criminal. He had done this. ,

Detective Jeffery proved that the prisoner was under committal for trial at the next Criminal Sessions of the Supreme Court on a charge of embezzlement. He had been ad mitted to bail at time of committal. Mr J. McCosh Clark proved that he in conjunction with the accused's mother, had become surety for his appearance. j The Court ordered him to be kept in custody until his trial, and committed for trial also for this offence. SMUGGLING. ' Henry Hobbs, a seaman on board the ship Countess of Kintore, was charged with a breach of Customs Regulations by smuggling a box of tobacco from off the said ship. Mr H. T. McKellar prosecuted.. The prisoner pleaded guilty. There was another charge of stealing the tobacco., The Court ordered him to pay a sum pf

£25 and costs for the smuggling, or in default of payment two months' imprisonment for the second offence the Court awarded him twelve weeks' imprisonment with hard labour. Sentences to run concurrently. He was also condemned in damages for the value of. the tobacco, the same being forfeited to the Crown. This concluded the business. I ,

Mosgiel Tweeds, of Otago manufacture, are now in demand in the London market. They area decided novelty, and excellent finality ; and yet at a distance of 1.(100 miles from the place twheve they are produced, and from the people whose interest and profit it is to prefer tire home production to the imported article, j their excellence is discerned and appreciated before ! we bestow oven a passing notice on the child of our own industry. Truly a Prophet hath no honor in his own country : but it is not " colonial" to "sneeze at" a profit. The time has come when the nether extremities of every New Zealand man and boy i should be clothed' in stuff of the home production. Samuel Coombos has just received a parcel of the above Tweeds from the manufactory, and not only ' hopes that they will be extensively sought for, but expects every public spirited man to "go in" for at east one pair of Mos^'el Tweed Trousers. Always somothing new to be seen at Lewisson's factory, High street. Now finishing twelve pairs of colonial gold leaf earrings. These are made from gold abstracted from quartz, and will be sold at SSs to 40s : also finishing, three snake rings. Look in as you go up High sti'eet. and see what U going on.— What man can make we can undertake.—F. 11. Lkwinmon.
