Ail cf PhaHeepeares P?" written for the

Iiw.ts succeed in hitting the mark mtuarely, ami
Mwe of rhem-prlncfpally nis early efforU-however
w )) they may have been suited to the taste of his own
irnntf have gradually faen lnt0 not lwlfithcr U1
.ltseried neglect in the theatres. The public, If Its
anient is not always to bo relied upon at the mo
ne nt, If a tolerably good critic In the long run, and
although there are some unacted works by the early
dramatists that are well worth producing on the
rtagf, with a little Ingenious adaptation, the win
dowing that Shakespeare's writings have undergone
k pretty surely separated the dramatic gold from
ibe dross, Shakespeare's plays may be divided Into
two claws: plays for the closet and stag, and plays
lor the closet only. To this lust named class belongs
AWs Wrillliat KniU Well. Nothing that, the greatest
poet of the world has produced can be uninteresting
to stndents of poetry, but more than one of his efforts
lacks the dramatic Interest necessary to make them
m"eesfnl in the acting, whatever their merits may
toe as literary performances.
AH Well ihntKml Well Is on1 of his plays that
have Ix'en excluded from the Btage. In modern
times It has seldom or never been acted, except per
ap9 occasionally as a dtainutlc curiosity that people
are expected to sec a few tlmrs simply bocauic
It is a novelty. The Arch Htreet Theatre
management announce the performance of
last ntjrht as the llrst of this play ever
triven iH l'hiladciplila, and the probabilities are
iliat It was, as there does nut appear to be anything
known to the contrary. The reason for this neglect
is not difficult to conic at. and It is very doubtful
whether the success of this revival will be so great
s to iiive encouragement lor another at tempt in the
name direction br the ne.t hundred years or so.
The production of such a rare play, however. Is a
matter of more than usual interest to students aud
lovers of dramatic art, IT not to the general pu'.llc,
and it, is worth while liuiuirliig into the merits of the
i-on.eiiy, with reference to the reasons lor its e.viu
gum from the theatres.
All's Well Unit Eil'l Well, is based upon one of Boc-
acclo's stories (''Decameron," Novel Ninth, Day
Third), although Shakespeare probably followed a
translation or adaptation that he found In Painter's
'Taiaccof Pleusure," a collection of tales gathered
from various Bourecs. The play follows the novel
very closely in Its plot, for a lack of Invention was
ne of the limitations of Shakespearian genius, and
although He sometimes altered aud Improved certain
incidents or introduced new ones, heoftener followed
his original with what appeals very unnecessary
lldetity. In the case before us it would seem impos
sible for him to nave made, anymatori.il Improvement
without an entire alteration of his subject, and AW
W'U Tim Eni Well is an example of his inability to
triumph over a ditll:ult and unpleasant theme.
Shakespeare has done more to render It attractive
than would any of his contemporaries if it had
fallen into their hands; but In spite of Its merits asa
literary eilbrt, it is ditlicult to esteem 11 except as a
very inferior work. The conjectural date of its com
position places it utter such performances as Hichard
IH; The MirehuiU if Wilier; A MiiLintumer
Siijl''i Dream; Tin- Tnmiiift ul' the Shrew;
Jivmeu ami Juliet; and Ki.ni .Ivlm, in which
Ins genius shone Willi most brilliant lustre.
The internal evidences or the piece, however, would
seem to Indicate thut It belonged to his transition
period, after The Tiro it.nth n ii of I'enma, .Did Love'
I, dint, Lout, and earlier than ttie ureat dramas upon
which his fame principally reals. It. is a riper work
than the two last mimed, although not as good as
either of them for stage purposes, but far inferior in
every respect to all the others. The subject Itself is
cut nsively coarse, and although few sensible per
sons will not prefer the honest plain speaking of
Shakespeare's time to the Insinuations of some Of
the dramatists of our own "day, yet such a play as
AU'x Wi ll that J-'inln We'J could scarcely have, been
written for the stage except in a course a ate, and lu
its'oiigimil sliApe It Is not lit. to be produced before'
modern audiences.
Independently of the oilensive nature of many of
the incidents themselves, Hie spectacle of a young
woman pursuing a man who does not love her, and
compelling him to marry her whether he wills or not.
Is lar irpm being agrceablc,lo spite m the efforts of t he
women's rights advocates to educate us up to this
point. The sweetness of Helena's" character, and
tne whole-souled ail'ection ihat he manifests for
Bertram,'' secure for her more sympathy thin
most persons U her situation tvccild lie entitled to;
but she is very far from being one of shakc
Heare's most interesting heroines. Indeed,
the play is . remarkable for its dcliciencv
in characterization. Most of Hie personages
tire exceedingly tame and commonplace, Willi the
exception of "I'arolles," who is the real dramatic
hero of the piece, although he siauds a long way
iiehlnd almost every other comic character that
llgnres lu &iaWesatc'M writings. The delineation of
t'haracter is Shakespeare's Htroiigesl point, ami the 1
' tletlcieucy of All'i ll7 Tlmt 1'ii'ln Well in this parti- j
rular is certainly remarkable. Take up almost any
one of his plays, even his earliest etl'.irts, like The !
3'iru Gentlemen of Vermin and Lure' .rtW l.xt, aud i
the Individuality of every person In them, from ,
the highest t the lowest, will be found
marked by Hrm and decided touches. The skill with
which he sketches even the most subordinate har
eters, wfto perhaps have not more than half a dozen
lines to speak, I marvellous, and In view of this Tact
it is certainly a thing td b 3 wondered at that the
people introduced in A II Well That hml Well should
be so uninteresting. The only reason Ua. can he
assumed for this is that he was hampered by an un-
eougeuiul subject thaj. did not allow his genius fall

to Shakespeare In anyoiner mau ixnu uuuiauon;
critics and commentators compare his works with
each other, but 'hen each must necessarily he the
best of Its kind, and supetior in every respect
to the productions of other writers. This is cer
tainly not the proper way to julge shake
apeai'e, and it is unjust H oilier dramatists
to estimate them by a different standard than is
used to test the value of his works. Masslnger,
' i;eauinont. and Fletcher, lien .lonsm, aud other
I Shakespeare s contemporaries, have written
plays that are very much superior to A '' II ." Thai j
hiiilt Well lu every particular, and Unit are very
much better worth keeping on the siae; and il I
railed upon to name Shakspeare's most Inferior I
work, we know of none among the plays mat are 1
assuredly h!s, that arc better entitled to lie placed
ut the bottom the list than this. Notwithstanding Its
delects, AU'h Well That A'm's UXf Is full of noble pas
nages that have the true Shakespearian rlngtn them,
and ill-adapted as It Is to the stage or the present
day. j will always be read with Interest by students.
Vs'hy the Arch. street management should have
ehobi'ii this comedy for a revival we are unable to
eomprehend, when there remains nuaeted suh
vastly superior work as r;iimliei;n a romantic, piav,
commonly ranked as a tragedy, but which Is really a
comedy in the Shakespearian sense of the word
Winter' Tale; A Yon Like I'; Tamiivi ,. sl,rie
which Is never given nowadays except in the shape
of a farce Wf '' ' Menxnre; or even The. Tin,
t;,Ult,Mii f Vei-Him and Lore' L)'r Lt, both of
which last are worth acting. It is irae that some of
these pieces are occasionally represented, but most
f them so very rarely that to ninety-nine persons
l of a hundred they wo lid be entire novelties, and
it has been Ion snej any In the list have been
brought out in this eltj in hih-Ii a style as .to com
mand general attention.
AWt Well That V.')if Wei', as produced at the Arch,
- la decent, but with the main Idea eliminated It Is a
Rood deal like the play of VnmV with the pin t of
Hamlet" left out. It could not well be givan In
any tther shape, however, aid as a dramatic euri
sltylt may draw through the week, but it is cer-
taunly not entertairiug enough to prove such an at
ractien aa was Tweith Sight last season. The dir.
ffai characters are crcttitably represented, but as
'Mt be expected, Mr. Craig, whose good luck as
frit cviceUitm consigns to Mm the only food acting
lrt in the play that of Parollcs" carries off m wt
of the honors.
The ltv Amawmrnii,
At tiir Ciiesnct the interest In the 'dram of
Uitntnl Dovn appear to be Increasing rather than
otherwise, and It commenced Its second week with
a large andlen In attendance last evening. The
Interest of this play is much the same as that which
attaches to i:t Lymie, bnt it has nothing of that
disagreeable morbidness of tone that characterizes
that drama, and it is at once purer, more whole
some, aud more attracrive in every way. The man
ner in which it Is performed by Miss Kecne and her
company brings ont all Its strong points, and holds
the attention of the audience trout first to last. The
Chcsnut Is now more like u drawing room than a
theatre, and there Is an air of elegance and comfort
about the place that makes it irresistibly attractive
as a place of resort, Independently of the excellence
of the performances.
At tub Wu.m "r Mr. Month is attracting as large
audiences as be did ut. the commencement of his
somewhat prolonged engagement, and many per
sons will regret his departure after the preseut
week. This evening Mr. Mouth will appear as
"Shylock" In The ilerehanl 11 IViiiv, and as "Don
Cicsar de llu.au" in the amusing drama of that
name.
Atthk Aitcrt Shakespeare's comedy of AW Well
''(if Kmis Wei' will be periormed this evening.
Dm'uk. A Mknkpiits opening niht, at, their
opera-house, on Seventh street, below Arch, at
tracted a lurgc audience, and the troupe made a
llrst-rate start. This band of burnt corklsis con
tains mi unusually large number of com potent performer-,
and the entertainment last evening was up
to a high mark of excellence. We predict for them
a sueecsslnl season aihe cosy llitle theatre thev
now occupy, which, b.v-t he-way. has been remind lii
good style, and is now more attractive than it ever
was.
At tub Ki.kvemh SthkktOi kka Hoi-sk n number
of Ethiopian comicalities will lie presented this
evening.
Tiik .kam t'oM KiiT to be given this evening at
the Academy or Music in aid of the lerman Theatre
ought to attract a large audience. A number of
eminent performers will appear, und a first-duns
programme will be presented. Th: entertainment
will be undei the direction of Mr. Isaac I.. Mice a
Philadelphia musician, who has recently returned 'to
us inter prosecuting a thorough course of musical
studies in Europe. The managers of the Oermau
Theatre are anxious to commence putting up their
building, but they very properly hesiiale to do so
until they have the necessary funds in hand. This
establishment wii: supply a vacancy, and it will not
interfere with any or the other theutres. It wlilglve
our German citizens what ther have long needed, a
lirst-class place of amusement', and it will be an at
traction to the city and an inducement for ;crinaus
in the Interior of the State to visit Philadelphia. The
theatre on this account alone Is worthy of the sup
port of our business men, and we hope not only that
the concert this evening will be a pei uniarv success,
bill that the gentlemen who arc endeavoring to get
the theatre in operat'on will receive the encourage
ment they deserve.
Maii'i.i'.bCaki.otta Path is announced to appear
in two concerts, at the Academy of Music, on Friday
and Saturday evenings next, under the management
of Max Strakoseh, i:(. Mad'lle Puftf has not ap
peared here for a number of years, and report speaks
of her as having improved greatly as a singer. Shi;
w ill be insisted by Signor llonconl, Theodore Ifabcl
uutnii, Theodore Hitter. .1. I'. I'runie, and .Joseph
Herrmanns. -
I'hoikssok IIKKK.MANN, t!ie gieat pivstidiif itafeur,
will appear at the Academy of Music oil .Monday,
November 1. Herrmann stands at Ihehcad of Ins
profession, and some id his feats arc very remarkable.
TlIK "STAR" t'Ol l.'SK OK I.KCIT KE.S Mr. Pllgh
has reason to congratulate himself 011 the brliliant
success of the enterprise he has inaugurated. It
was a happy thought to make a combination of the
best lecturing talent in the country, nnd the variety
that Mr. Pugh's course oilers is not the least of its
attractions. Last evening Miss Olive I.ogau, whose
last appearance in this city did not excite much en
thusiasm, was gi'eeted by a tremendous audience
that completely filled the Academy of Music to
hear her disvoui.se upon the congenial theme of
"(drls."
To-morrow evening the fourth lecture of the
course will bo delivered by Mr. It. 3. le Cordova,
who is one of the most popular of Mr. Pugh's
"stars." His lectures are nl ways amusing, aud as the
comeiiinnol the troupe, if wo mav call him so, ho
is an admirable relief to soino or the heavy trage
dians, like Sumner and Wendell Phillips, who are to
appear during the season Mr. De Cordova's theme
to-morrow will be "Our New Clergyman.'' Ho will
also sing to an orchestral accompaniment a new
song entitled "When They shall Whisper," a copy
ol which will be prosuiUM to each lady lu atleud
puce, THE II IJAnrOV '.I ThXT llAILHOAb SWITCH.
No appliances that can be devised will make rail
road travelling absolutely sure, aud under the very
best auspices, and with the most perfect mechanical
contrivances, there will always be something to fear
from the mistakes and neglect ot the most careful
employes, and from those accidents to machinery,
bridges, and the roads themselves, against which no
forethought can provide, it is certain, however,
that an approximate degree of seenrity can be ob
tained, and the whole public, even more than the
railroad companies, is interisteii in every contriv-
aiice.thui will tend to diminish the liability to acci
dent. A more perfect discipline is being introduced
rapidly on most of the great roads of the country,
ami the ingenuity of engineers is taxed to iuvent
such appliances as will prevent any ill
consequences from human negligence, and the
result is that railroad, tlwvellliut is being, too gra
dually It Is true, relieved of many of ite most un
pleasant features. The weak parts on railroads arc
the switches. It is through the misplacement of
these that the great majority of accidents occur, anil
con.-cipieutly tiie attention of railroad men has been
part icularly directed to them, with a view of diminish
ing as lar as practicable the causes of danger. Man1
contrivances havo been tried tint possgg much
nu-rit on certain points, but u-; always 'lull some
thing short of pcilrcndn. A large number or acci
dents occur every year ut railroad switches that do
not reach the car of tUc public, and they are a con
stant source r.r t0 ,he engineers aud thers
who know lit danirer. and who are obliged to run
constant -;lhks of llfc Anil Um, fma t liera T,e gat

I a'-'5!' .ovatniu is a switch that will 1
1 extent at least, au.on.auc in its
'",,t , 6'' - f order,
be, to a certain
action, which
und that
cannot be leit in such a condition, through
neglect or Intention, as 10 risk tho safely of an ad
vancing train. All thcKw couoit ions seem to be fulfilled
by Wharton's patent railroad surety switch, which
was yesterday subjected to a great number of very
severe tests, in the presence of a number of retire
seutaties of the press, railroad men, and others, on
the Pennsylvania Kuilroad and the West I'hester
Heart lu West Philadelphia. The Important feature
of this switch is that on a double track railroad It
leaves (he mam Hack open under all possible condi
tions for an advancing train, and it is impossible, to
go upon a sidling except by bavkiug. The construc
tion uurt ncitnn of the v,vilcH me very simple, and
yet it Is impossible to give ;u intelligent description
ol Its opi-raiioii in words: it is suillcieul to say Hint it
was subjected to every lot that the ingenuity of the
persons present could devise, even to taking
it 10 pieces. If the switch is set wroug,
the lirst wheel of tlm advancing locomotive
Uitowsit into its proper position again, and It is an
impossibility that the train sliuuUl leave the main
track under any circumstances. -
(Mi a single track road, of course, a somewhat
dillcreiit arrangement is necessary, and there tbo
switch is so contrived thai It must always remain set
for the main track, ij,cept when il is lu the hands or
the opeiator, so thai it is impossible for him through
any negligence 10 misplace it. The locomotive engi
neers, who are iirst-rale critics about 11 matter of
this kind, express the inmost confidence in this in
vention; and It hits already proved its utility by
preventing several accidents ontlie railroads where
It is in operation. A number of these switches are
in use 011 the Penusy Ivuuiu, the Heading, und the
Haltlniore Ponds, and during the past year they
have fully demonstrated their utility aud safety.
They also have the merit of saving wear and tear
in the tuick and Hie w heels anil axles of cars and
locomotives, and In pasKing over thera no jar and
shock are felt, as in the ens of the switch lu common
use. This Improved switch is the invention of Mr.
Thomas Wharton, Jr., who has labored assiduously
to perfect it in every particular, and ho appears now
10 nu v accomplished uu mat count no desired.

calling out something; a crowd of men standing in
front of the restaurant made a passage way and let.
Haggerty pass through ; there wero about fifty per
sons in the crowd ; when Haggerty hart passed into
the hotel the crowd closed up and began a sham
light; Immediately arter the crowd left the van 1
saw two policemen walk out fromj somewhere very
leisurely, after Hiiggcrty had escaped a number of
policemen came up to the hotel ; 1 couldn't recognize
any of the persons; Mr. Thomas made every ciror: to
pursue, but was prevented.
the vim; on Saturday morning; when we. drove Into
theeourt-va.id a crowd pressed in against the van ,
and I told'them to stand buck; Haggerty came out
AM rhetailute'g ,
away, and then I pursued him; I can recognize one '
of tlie crowd : his name was JainesWIietmore, called
"Mysterious Jimmy;" but he seemed to be keeping
ties. Uliou, prison Keeper, nworn 1 cnim; up won
the ernwil luii-k
Mr. Albriirht sworn 1 nm a day watchman at tlm
County Prison ; I came up with the van on Saturday;
when We stopped in 1 he court yard I told Haggerty
that I would go out llrst, which I tlid; Haggerty ini- I
mediately followed, springing alxmt two yards; 1 )
followed him. but could not get near him in conse
quence or the crowd; they cried "lire-' and tried to
keep the officers back ; when 1 got to the steps of the
American House I was seized by the neck and I
thrown buck ; I might recognize some of the persons
if I fiiw them again, but I don't know their names;
at !Si.Hi and Chcsnut streets I saw some persons who
hail visited Haggerty at, prison 011 l-'riday; Mullen
was there; people are only allowed to converse with
prisoners through the cell-door when the keeper is
present; I did not see anything of Haggerty after he
got into the crowd.
Detective Charles F. Miller sworn I tlid not see
anything of Huggerly; I was at Fifth and Chestnut
streets, and noticed the crowd of persons at the
hotel; I was talking with Detective Franklin wheu
1 heard the noise; then I saw Mr. Tnoinas in the
crowd with his hat off, oud thought they were beat
ing him; 1 ran into the crowd ami pulled th"in
apart ; 1 was told that Haggerty had got away, and
at once notified the Chief of Police, the Mayor, and
Judge I.udlow, and telegraphed all over the city ; I
knew about fllteen or the crowd about the hotel by
their races, but know the names or only a few;
"curly" Harris, Joe Hums, Donnelly, Fanner, and
a man called "Skinny," were there; I will iry to
Und out. who the others were who appeared to be
ossistiug In the escape.
James Steel sworn I witnessed the escape, tho
crowd, and the blockade; I saw Dutch Ahern, but
that was before the escape : the crowd was too large
for me to recognize anyone.
John Bartholomew sworn About 10 o'clock Satur
day morning I was standing in front vf Mr. Ahern 's
oltice, and observed a number of professional
thieves collected about the American House, ami
thought something must be up; I was told it was
tlm "W hisky Hing;'' 1 saw them there again at Vi
o'clock ; I heard there had been u tight at the Ame
rican, but when I got there, il was over; 1 saw
Ottlcers Thomas, Miller, and Franklin there; "Slim
Jim'' was one of the crowd; Tom Doran, Dutch
Ahern, Harry Fanner, "Peanuts,"' and John Me
Kuen, and some strange faces were there.
tieorge W. Nott sworn 1 was a prisoner charged
with desertion of my wire, and came with Haggerty
on Saturday; he asked me what 1 was up lor, and I
told him for desertion, ami he said nothing more to
me; he did not propose escape to me; i was look
ing out of the side of the van when Haggerty es
caped; I saw nothing or the officers; the crowd
was too great to admit or pursuit.
Mr. (falton, Clerk of the Court, said Judge Brew
ster had given lilm an order to have Uaggerty
brought up to the old court-room ; this was the reason
Haggerty was not taken to the new court-room,
where they were trying Marrow aud Dougherty;!
guve the order to bring the prisoner up.
His Honor then directed the Clerk to make out
sepurate warrants for the arrest of such of the par

sisting llaggerty's escape, and suspending further
proceeding for Hie present.
I.ocAf. Onns xn V.sns. on Tuesduy evening next
the night school for urtisalis will be opened at the

It is unite a common occurrence in this country,

the ownership of a large tract of land on which a

deeds, or other papers of dead and forgotten people,
and sometimes, us in the case of Mrs. flumes, at
New Orleans, such claimant is wonderfully success
ful. We, In Ik'laware, have so fur been pretty free
from such excitements; though we have at limes
