This was the title of Prof. Harrington's paper read at the last meeting of the Shakespere Club. The paper first considered the limitations under which Plau tus was compelled to work. Tragedy was not in favor in Rome. The crudeness of the theatrical arrangements, and of acting itself, prevented any such character representations as ; may be found in Shakespere. Worse1 than this, Plautus was compelled to borrow all his plots from the New Attic Comedy, which was j tame, insipid, monotonous and immoral. All that he could do was to arrange and re-arrange the few stock characters of that form of the drama, and touch , them with all the originality, liveliness and delicate strokes which his own genius and that of the Ro man people would permit. In this he was so successful that he remains till the present day the most representative and popular dramatist of Rome. By combining two plots in one some times, and by constantly aiming at liveliness and, action, he satis fied the cravings of the . Roman populace for a play of rapid move ment and comparatively little mere dialogue. By a disregard for the unities of time and place he made his Greek characters per fectly at home in Rome. - In his all-absorbing effort to please and amuse , the people, he introduced all the tricks of the trade, . such as allitaration, assonance, paro i nomasia, ludicrous word-coinage, i For the same reason his plots are not for the most part of a high moral tone, and teach little xf virtue. Yet there are important and striking exceptions, where emphasis is laid rather on character-study, honor, fidelity, pathos. His extravagant exaggerations are hardly equalled for their rollick ing fun. His slaves and parasites are unique' and inimitable,, char acters that are practically dead to Shakespere. No other Roman dramatist can compare with Plautus in his mas terly treatment of the constantly shifting metres. By this means he indicates with great power and delicacy the play of the emotions in the speaker, sometimes chang ing the metre more than a score of times in half a hundred lines. In word-building lay his great est strength. In this 'he takes rank above all Roman writers. His picturesque formation set the style for all his successors, but none of them dared to follow as far as he had led. He wrote for an uneducated public, and succeeded in both pleasing and partially educating them. NOTES. The late Thomas G. Hodgkins of Setauket, L. I. , bequeathed his entire estate, valued at $500, 000, to the regents of the Smith sonian institution at Washington. The Recently elected mayor of Cambridge, Mass., W. A. Ban croft, is known to college men throughout the country as "Foxy" Bancroft, the great stroke and coach among Harvard oars men. . ,.".
