SID WILLIAM still KAPIOLME WRITE
SILAILAPEAME I S PLATS
p o t h e Editor of the Er, ,iing
this question has beetVasked by more than one
writer, and with some apparent seriousnees,there
is yet little danger that any Mach heretical doubt
---will-erer take-rootso_a.s_to_heeon formidable.
Or, it there were any such danger, there may be
found in Shakspeare's Poems parallel ptupages,
similar expressions, associated ideas, cognate and
analogous to other passages In Shakspeare's
/Ws's, enough to settle the question;—and settle
it too, as well, or even bettor and more perfectly
than if the Manuscript of all the Poems and of all
sae Plays had been preserved down to the present
day in the same hand-writing.
To estimate the value of such evidence, we
=last bear in mind that several editions of
Shakspeare's Poems* (many copies of which are
yet extant), were carefully printed, with the
poet's name to the dedication, dnring his life
time, in fact, almost at the outset of his career.
His Sonnets, it is true, have only the publisher's
, By Mu. Shakspeare;" but what is more con
clusive as to their authorship, may .be found 'in
the 135th and 136th, where the name of "Will"
is played upon and tortured through several lines
after the manner of his besetting sin of gutobling..
I will, however, let the following extracts from
his rellilS and Adonis, The Rape of Luerece, his
Bonnets, and The Passionate Pilgrim, speak for
themselves, with the fewest possible explanatory
and connecting words of my own. And I mean
to quote . only what is characteristic and peculiar,
and therefore' omit a multitude "of flgtires and
exPreisions, such as are the common property
at all . Foote.

The physiological truth conveyed in these lines
Is very often referred to in the Plays as "—hand

—Othello, iii,
"—a river that is rank
Perforce will force it overflow its bank
This is a favorite simile with Shakspeare; and
he makes frequent use of it to express excessive
and irregular action of anv kind, either strong
individual passion, or popular commotion, as in
"the following:
We come within our awful banks again;
—2 Henry 4th, iv, 1.
Like a proml river peering o'er his bounds,
—IC. John, lir, 2.

"--our griefs are risen to the top,
And now at length they overflow their banks.
—Pericles, ix, 1.
Over my altars bath he hung his lance,
The batter'd ehield, his uncontrolled crest;
And for my sake bath learn'd to sport and dance,
To toy, to wanton, to daily, and tojest; 106

This appears to have been a favorite thought
with Shalaspeare, and he repeats it several times
in the present poem, and so very often in the
Bonnets, that it seems unnecessary to quote the
passages. It occurs several times in his plays;
as in All's lVell, I, 1; Romeo and Juliet, 1,1, and

It is unnecessary to transcribe from Shak
speare's Passionate Pilgrim the several long pas
sages which are also to be found in his Love's La , -
bour's Lost, as also Mariana's song in Measure for
Measure; since. those were paposely transferred
from one to the other, and certainly (excepting
the song), during the author's life-time, though,
probably, without his agency. The value
of the proof I have aimed to give, by thus col
lating extracts from the Plays and Poems, con
sists. In the accidental and involuntary similarity
of the thoughts and language;
_showing that
they &into from the same mind, though at a dif
ferent stage of intellectual development,—the
Poems belonging to an early, and the Plays to a
mature manhood.
Still other proofs of Identity of authorship may
be derived from comparing the Plays and Poems.
First—The writer in both shows a slight prefer
ence for female beauty of the fair or blonde or
der, to that of the dark type.
Secoded—llis fondness for illustrations and fig
ures, drawn from the Ls 9a/ profession,--mostly
conveyancing, practice, bonds, dates, leases, etc.
—for many more law extracts may be gleaned
from Shakspeare'S few poems, than from' all
his plays.
Third—Shakspeare's frequent use of contra
dictory terms, to intensify the expression of his
thoughts, may be said to be almost an exclusive
characteristic of his style; and which I do not re
member ever to have seen commented on. Pages
might be filled with examples from his plays; as
"desert city;" "living dead men;" "seek redemp
tion of the devil;" "stairs of sand;" "cage of
rushes;" "sweet way I was in to despair;" "the,
time was blessedly lost;" "gentle F villain;" "blind
sight;" "abundant scarce: "despiteful gentle;"
"sickness of health and 'living now begins to
mend, and nothing brings nie all things;" "to be
(righted out of fear," "brawling love, loving hate,
heavy lightness; serious vanity, chaos of well
seeming forms, feather of ]cad, bright smoke,
cold fire, sick health, still waking sleep;" "di
vinity of hell;" "swears a prayer;" "hypocrisy
against the devil." In Shakspeare's Poems we
find "melodious discord;" "niggard prodigal;"
"poorly rich;" "wanton modesty;" "cursed
blessed;" "waste in niggarding ;" " make some
thing nothing by augmenting it," etc.
in this list of 'parallelisms and associated ideas,
I must have overlooked many, and probably
some as important as any I have instanced: as
several times I was obliged, to make use of the
- CdtiCtitiffiiree -- tiTlind the passages, afiCtiotinir
failed to lied, from only dimly remembering the
sentiment, but no single word that might afford
a e)ie to its whereabouts. C. W. S.

Mr. Fowtru, of Tennessee. introduced a bill to
provide for the purvey of the Mississippi River, which
was referred to the Committee on Territories.
Jt requires the Chief Engineer of the army to have
made a complete survey of the Mississippi River,
from Cape Girardeau to its mouth. exemplifying all
its topographical features on either bank, within such
limits as may be necessary to determine a proper loca.,
tion of levees, and that ho shall locate, lines for per
manent levees in the following districts, viz.: On the
east side, first, from the mouth of the Ohio to Mem*
phis, in such portions of Kentucky and Tennessee as
may moire levees; second, from Memphis to the
mouth of the Yazoo River: third, from S ickeburg to
New Orleans, in finch portions as may require levees;
fourth, from New Orleans as tar down towards the
mouth as pie area to be reclaimed from overflow will
justify the extension of a levee; and on the west side.
first, from Cape Girardeau to the mouth of St. Francis
River; second, from Helena to the month of White
River; third, from Napoleon to month of Red River
Muth, thence as far down as the urea W be reclaimed
will justify the extension of the levee.
The Chief Engineer is 'authorized to employ such
officers. engineers and laborers and to use such ap
plinces as may be necessary for the work, to defray
the expenses of which there is appropriated $2'`.0,000.
Re as required to report as soon as practicable his esti
mates of the coat of levees located on lines of per
=went. security, of such dimensions as , will render -
them secure against the greatest floods, together with
the area of land that will be reclaimed from overflow
in each district by tue construction of such levees.
The bill also provides for the completion , of the by- •
cirographic and hydrometric survej of the Mississippi
from Cape Giratdeau to the Gulf, and appropriates for
present expenses of that work $50,000.
RIGNONSTRANCE.
Mr. MOIMAN prce•nted remenotxances from mer
chants and bankers of New York against the passage
of the funding bill.
DA , fl IC RAILROAD
On motion of Mr. Bowenn. of Michigan, the Senate
took Tip the bill relating to the Central Branch Union
Pacific Railroad Company.
Mr. Joinisosi, of Maryland! advocated the bill at
length, explaining the operations thus far on the road,
:ma speaking very highly of the advantages likely to
accrue from it.
Mr. Monniti, of . Vermont,„ offered a verbal amend
ment, the effets. of wh ch aould be to provide that no
subside ot. the United States bonds shall be allowed to
,thia branch beyond the allowance on the hundred
milei on which bonds are already authorized to be
issued.
Mr. Mor.nna., of Maine, moved \to postpone the bill
for the purpose of taking up the pi?stofilee appropria
tion bill, which was nor, agreed to—yeas 21, na.,o 25
Mr. CONK1.11:‘;, of New York, took the floor, and
apoke at length in opposition to the bill. lie argued
that the claimants bud no right to these bonds or
lands. even 11, from a default or any other contln
gcnc7, they bad become successors of what was Gilled
the Eastern Division. This bill asked for fifty or sixty
miles, between the terminus of. their present route
and Junction City, for which no subsidy was ever
granted to anybody; that these .parties were already
the participants of magnificent endowments; that
equivalent lands and bonde were given to the Eastern
Division when the bill was passed allowing. them to
change their route, and that those privileges had been
'pledged to the St. Joseph and Denver City Railroad
Company, which company would, undoubtedly, come
and make a claim for remuneration which Congress
could not resist. lie argued that the line in question
was not necessary to form connections,, and that Con
guess was obliged to subsidize roads calculated to
gridiron the entire West. He concluded by claiming
that this was a proper subject for the exercise of econ
omy.
When Mr. Conkling concluded his remarks,
The CHAIR announced as the conference com
mittee on the part of the Senate on the pension ap
propriation bill: Messrs. Grimer,Conkling and Morrill,
of Vermont: also.on thebill in relation to counties;
Messrs. Wilson, Howard and Thayer.
Mr. POMEROY replied briefly to Mr. Conkitnp,
holding that the law authorizes this transfer of
privileges not availed of by a party to the consoli
dated orpoilzatioll
Mr. Howarth, of Michigan, quoted the various acts
bearing on the subject, and maintained that it had
been contemplated by theta that the Eastern Dkristou
should be solcieated that alt branches mentioned in
the charter of the t Dion. Pacific Railroad should be
enabled to form a connection with it , on its way to the
hundredth degree of longitude. In 1866 the Eastern
Division was allowed by Conyers, on application, to
branch off towards the southwest, thus releasing it
from the obligation to confine itself to the route
‘k bleb would enable those branches to form their con
nections with it. He therefore claimed that good
faith demandmi that Congress should now empower
those branches thu, deprived of it to make that con
nection.
After further dlicuealon by Mr. Em irsAs and
others, It being evident tbali no vote would be reached
to-day, the Senate, at half-put four, went. into Execu
tive session, and eoon after adjourned.
House of RepramenUttives:

31r. -Ross, of Illinois, offered a preamble and a series
of sixteen resolutions, reciting that the Fortieth Con
gress has been charged with disloyalty to the govern
tiler t, and with a purpose to subvert and destroy the
essential principles and just balances on which it rests,
and declaring that the Constitution is the supreme
paramount law of the land; that Congress faithfully
abide and strenuously maintain the essential and
fundamental principles of the government; that Con
gress will oppose all efforts to render the military in
dependent-of and superior to the civil power; that it
will oppose all efforts to deprive the people of the
right of habeas corpus and trial by jury; that it will
oppose the encroachment of one department of the
government on the other; that free speech, a free press
and a free ballot are essential to liberty and cannot be
surrendered; that Congress la opposed to a large stand
lee army; that peculation and frauds on the 'Treasury
should he stopped; that each State shall regulate suf
frage within its own limits; that no government bonds
shall be isaned that are not subject to the same rate
of taxation as other property, and that national bank
notes shall be withdrawn and legal-tender notes sub

Mr. Rana s WORTH agreed to include W. B. Rodman
In his 'amendment.
Mr. ELDRIDGE, of Wisconsin, suggested the name of
Governor Worth, of North Carolina, who had been
always a true Union man..
Mr. MuLuns, of Tennessee, remarked that 3loseby
would be the next to be pardoned, hut a member near
him reminded him that Moseby had been already par
doned.
Mr. SPALnixit. of Ohio, moved to lay the bill and
amendments on the table. Negatived--yeas 50, nays
Mr. AeIILES', of Ohio. inquired whether thts bill re
lieved the pm eons of the disabilities imposed uncer
the constitutional amendment. known as the —four
teenth article'!"
Mr. Bo o ;IIAM replied that it did not.
Mr. Snsi.mm: inquired whether a majority vote was
sufficient to pass this bill?
Mr. BIT:611AM replied that it was.
Mr. 3 1 / 1 11:AIIIP, of Tennessee, opposed the amend
ment in reference to John A. Gilmer, of North Caro
lina, saying that he had wrought more mischief to the
cause of the Union, by throwing his weight and in
fluence on the other vide than he could have done if
he had been an original secessionist; besides, he had
done nothing to aid reconstruction in North Caro
lina.
Mr. BoYorrAx.•in reply to a remark of Mr. Price, re
peated that the bill had no relation to the amendment
of the Constitution known as the fourteenth article.
It was a pro (Onto repeal of the existing acts of Con
gress imposing disabilities on those prrties, and there
was no colorable excuse for raising a (martian of con
stitutional power about it.
Mr. Been, of Kentucky. stated that as a member
of the Reconstruction Committee he had declined
voting for this measure, because he held that under
the terms of the general amnesty proclamation, those
persons were already relieved of political disabilities.
Ile referred as his authority for this opinion to the
decision of the Supreme Court in the Garland case.
• Mr. Itreonalt argued that the Supreme Court could
only decide on the cues that came before ir, bat could
make no decision in the premises which would oper
ate either on the Rouse of Representatives or the
Senate.
Mr. Witiasats, of Pennsylvania, premising that the
gentleman from Ohio recognized the fourteenth article
as part of the Constitution, inquired whether he en
tertained the opinion that the fundamental law of the
land wars no law at all, and did not come within the
provisions of this bith
Mr. BINUII.AM answered not at all; but that no law
of Congress had ever been held to apply to the text of
the Constitution.
Mr. Scuericx. of Ohio, said he had supposed that
this hill wart tribe passed in the mode prescribed in
the fourteenth article of the Constitution, by a two
third vote. lie inquired what was to be the effect of
this MIL Would it restore the persons named in it
to the privilege of holding offices, civil and military
Mr. BLKOLIA.II replied that it would not. It would
simply relieve them from the disabilities imposed by
the reconstruction acts, excluding them from regis
tration and the right of voting.
Mr. Scurricsi declared that while he was in favor of
removing disabilities from some, at least, of tee per
sons' to whom the bill applied. he would never vote
for such a bill naives it came in through the door pro
vided in the fourteenth article of the Constitution,
which required a two-third vote. [Members on the
Republican side--" Good: that is sound."[
Mr. BiNsiram said that his colleague was welcome
to his vote and to his speech. He had anticipated
this very difficulty, and bad drawn up a provision ex
tending the fourteenth article of the Constitution to
to the bill; but on the suggestion that that could be
done at another step. he had withdrawn it. While he
believed that the fourteenth article is operative by the
votes of threc.tourths of the organized States, yet
every one knew that it was not and could not be opera
tive until by the law-making power it was so Mo
claimed, and that had not been done.
Mr. SciIENCK, of Ohio, remarked that he would
watt till that was done before he would vote for any
such bill.
Mr. FATINSwnitTII. of Illinois. thought there was
evidently some misunderstanding with reference to
the object of the bill. It was his understanding, as a
member of the Reconstruction Committee, that the
purpose of this bill was to relieve persons from dis
abilities In pursuance of the fourteenth article of the
Constitution, with the understanding that it would
require a two-thirds vote to pass the bill. That cer
tainly was his understanding, and he thought the un
derstanding of the committee.
Mr. BINGEIA3i, of Ohio,' declared there was not a
AR_ gort said in the . COMmitte andlfonmel
tion of this kiiid - WaS - Iblie - made he would withdraw
all participation in the matter.
Mr. Demi:a, of Massachusetts, inquired whether
this bill would relieve the persons named in it of the
obligation of taking the test oath it any of them
should be elected to Congress ?
Mr. BINGILLN supposed that it would.
Mr. Dawns could not see how that could be the case
when the bill did not mention the act of. July 2, 1862,
Imposing the teat oath..
Mr. -Mr. BINGHAM had no doubt that it relieved them of
all disabilities imposed by act of Congress.
Mr. Wrtson, of lowa, said that, as he understood
the bill, its effect 'would be to relieve the persons
named in it of disabilities imposed by the fifth • and
sixth sections of the act of March 2, 1867, which die
abilities affected them only as citizens of the several
States in which they resided. That was the length
and breadth of the bill.
Mr. Pluck, of lowa, inquired whether those diaa
bilities could he removed by less than a twathind
vote?
Mr. Wri.aorl replied that they :unquestionably could
be.
Mr. ?rues remarked that the constitutional amend
ments provided specially that persons involved in the
rebellion could not hold any office under a State gov
ernment, unless relievedby atm-third .vote . of both
houses of Congress.
Mr. WILSON admitted that if his colleague (Mr.
Price) was correct, and the constitutional amendment
was in force, and if those persons could not be re
lieved without a twathird vote. the bill would twa
worth nothing; but if his colleague were in error ail°
that, and if the constitutional amendment were not yet
a part of the Constitution of the United States, the
passage of this btll would relieve the parties named
in it of the disabilities imposed in those two sec
tions. • • •
Mr. Mavarann, of Tennessee, inquired what effect it
would have on-the test oath?
Mr . liVitsorr replied not any; for as he construed it
it did not apply to any Federal officer, and no other
officer was required to take the test oath.
Mr. Sontracti, of Ohio—ls not that oath provided
for by law? , , .
Mr. WitsoN.--Ter.
Mr.Sennamr-4 and that this bill which relieves those
petsons 'from all *abilities imposed urxin them or
either of them by the laws of the United States, does
not cover this test oath.
...• •
Mr. Witsox did not regard the act requiring the
test oath as one imposing disabibties,but if there was
anything in that, he would certainly propose as
amendment, so as to exclude any suctveaustractiori.
Mr. Covois, of Pennsylvania, remarked that as his
impulses were all against relieving any of those mea t
and as he believed that Governor Gilmer was the best
of those named in the bill, he would, to disembarrass
the question, withdraw Mr. Gilmer's name, adding
that it appeared to him the bill would requird a two
third voto.
The Smelt= said it would require unan moue 01f
sent to withdraw it, as the previous question was
operating.. -
Mr. BraGliall objected, adding that it watt all non
sense, and expressing the hope that the Beau would
either Lass the bill or reject, or adjourn.
The mouse preferred the latter choice, and at 4.40
adjourned,
