AYhethar the authorship o( Shakes
peare's pi;\TS should bo attributed to
Frac-iis Lord Bacon is a qnestiou that
bag boon recently retived by Mr. Igna
tius Douueliy in au nrtiele ooutnbutud
bv hiiu a few uiuiiihs since to tbe Now
York Sun. We allude to it as a revi
val of this discussion though the .numer
ous papers that have so soveretv com
mented on Mr. IVmnelly'a theory seem
to quite ignore the tact tUat >ho d'scus-
B ian of the question is not a new one:
indeed the argument as to tlio author
ship of the plays up to this time etu
'•raoes aliteraturo of its cwn, consist
;.• -J the titles of upwards of '2OO dif
ferent books, pamphlets, essays &e. M o
l*'.« not space to intelligently discuss j
Douuelly's theory which is based upon
his alleged discovery of a cipner
in the pWys of Ist aud 'Jud -'Hen
ry IV." See his paper on "The Sbakes
pcan Myth" in June number of North
American Review. Any one who desi es
to acquaint himself about ttic question
of Bacon's authorship of bhakcspcare s
plays should tead Nathaniel Holmes'
Authorship of SUkecjiesrc. I'he lale
Mr. Fish, the dean of Slukespesie Club,
of Philadelphia. t..ld this writer that lie
had an inclination to write a review of
Mr. Holmes' book, in which he should
attempt to use Mr. lloliucs' argument
to show that Shakespeare might have
wris.ten Bacon, but rfcfraiued from effect
ating his design us Mr. Holmes book was
"such a good one " He said, however,
that his mind was so for froui being con
vinced by Mr. Holuies' argument that
bis faith had not been even shaken. Mr.
Holmes' book is a remarkable ouc. At
the .time of its publication he was or hail
been, a Judge, in Missouri, a nauvc,
however, of V eruiont. One of tho cha'rs
in the Law Department of Harvard U
mversity became vacant about that time,
and Mr. Holmes, who was chosou ts fill
the place, owad his electiuu, as was said,
to the ephemeral reputation gained
hreugh his book. This writer was hi*
guest some years back aud the subjeet
of Bacon and Shakepeave was made
he topic of the day'a conversation.
WASt'a IN TUE WINDaW LIGHTS.- -
Those persons who have beeu killing the
wasps that swarm in the window lights
of our houses, during the last two weeks,
liave been surprised by the teuaoity of
life exhibited by this insect. Soiuo of
of the boys who have been amusing
themselves by cutting the insects in two
with a knife or scissors have witnessed
the singular fact that the buJy of 'he
insect retains lite and freedom ot motion
apparently as well as befurt the body
was severed, while theso insects th.it are
left for dead, ill many instances, are
>d the next day to still retain vitali
ty. But physiologists know well that
animals with thrce-cbiuibored heart*
and slow tcold) eireulation retain life
much longer than those possessed of lour
chambered hearts and quick (warm) cir
culation ; and this is true, to even great
er extent, of white-blooded insects, With
out complete ciroulatory apparatus. In
deed Char'.es Marseilles, of Exeicr, N.
H., has recorded an instance tf his hav
ing recently witnessed how an insect
kuowu as the earwig aftei having been
cut in two became reunited. "One
resting on a board," he says, "was cut
in two with a knife, whou the head half
crawled away about a foot, and, after
making a circuit, same back to its tail
half, butted against it, and was again
united with it, when the severed iusect
became whole—a perfect living, tnoviug
object." The severed portions in this
insect became reunited by tho same pro
aese precisely as that by which severed
fingers huvo sueoestfully been .uunitß'l
to the hand in 'lm human suhj iot teeth
transplanted and even the spurs made
tn grow in the comb of the sauic I aril
yard cick.

pronouncing; it
appears tlint a Mm. King liad !
been suffering for many years \
fi"om some disease of the stom
iiih, which bad resisted the
treatment of all the physicians 1
in attendance. ' Tlio liifcftsc
commenced with a sl'ght ilc- j
range nient of tho digestion, i
with a poor appetite, followed
by a peculiar indesci ibable dis- j
tress in the stomach, a feeling j
that has bcei|r described as a ,
faint "all gone" sensation, a i
sticky slime collecting rbout
the teeth, causing a disagree- I
ablo tn*ti\ rhi3 consation was i
not removed by fooil, but, on j
the contrary, it was increased, j
After a while the hands a. d ;
feet became cold and sticky-- :
a cold perapirntihu. There j
was a constant tired and lan- j
guid feeling. Then followed a |
dreadful nervousness, with j
gloomy forebodings. Finally j
the patient was unable to re- !
tain r.nv lood whatever, and j
.there was constant pain in the !
alnlomen. All preseri!>ed rem- j
cities failing to pive relief, a
consultation was held, when it >
was decided that the patient
had a cancer in the stomach,
and in order tosave the patient's
life an operation was justili- |
able. Accordingly, on the 22il
of February, lbS's, the opera
tion was perfomied by J)r.

poor woman to know that his

surgical operation that ought
never to have !> a performed.
