Mr. Spedding assures us that he attended | the theatre with the young lords, bis companions, | | very frequently, and in late ile expressed nis exalted opinion of the drama and its benefits to | bis “De Augmentis,” wherein he observes :—*"Dra- | matic poetry, which takes the theatre lor the world, of excellent use, it be save; for the discipline, as well as the corruption of | the theatre may be very great.

And most certainly, what is one of the secrets of nature, the minds vf men, when as- | sembled together, are more open to affections aud | impressions than ‘when they are alone.” Bacon 18 | | constantly mentioned as a manager of plays and | | Masques and was frequently the prominent figure.

We cannot doubt thas paper” ts identical ia Mr. Furness’ mind with the | “Conference of Pleasure!” * 3 manuscript dis- | covered 1m 1867 by Mr. Jonn Bruce among a collec- | ston of papers more or less connected with the Bistory of the Percys, in Northumberland House. Mr. Bruce communicated with Mr. Spedding, ; apd the Jatter gentleman edited the Iragment, — which throws iresh light upon the Bacon-Sbakes- — peare subject. This manuscript consists of twen- | ty-two leaves, laid one upon another, folded asin | w# quire of paper, and was formerly jastened by a | such through the centre. The edges have been muca damaged by fire, and the final words of the | lines have been los:, though the writing is per- | fectly legible. Certain sheets are missing, a3 is indicated by the table of contents upon the outer | leas. | Mr. Spedding finds the mass of matter to be | copies trom Bacon's works; and strangely enough, tue index enumerates, in sequence, certain “Ora | tions at Graie’s Inne revells,” an address to the “Queene’s Majesty,” by Mr. Frauncis Bacon; the | «Essaies,” by the same author, and thea “Richard | 1.” and Richard IL? ‘the first page is covered with scribbling, amomg which appear the names of “William Shakespeare” | ana “Mr. Frauncis Bacon.” Mr. Spedding readily | conceives why the latter name should appear, | since the manuscript 1s emimently Baconian, “But,” he adds, “the only thing, so far as 4 can | see, whieh requires any particular notice, if the | vecurrence in this wayof the name of William | Shakespeare, and the value of that depends in @ | great degree upon the date of the writing. All 1 | can say is tha: | find nothing either in these later | seribblings (the names) or in what remains of tue | book itself tu indicate a date later than the reign | of Elizabeth.’ He then states that it was not until 1597 that any of Shakespeare’s plays ap- | peared in print, and though the earliest editions of “Richard Mf.” and “Richard 111.” bear that | Gate, nis name 1s not on the title page of | either of them. They were set forth as plays which haa been “lately,” or “publicly,” or ‘olten with | great applause,’? acted by the Lord Chamberiain’s servants. ‘‘I'netr title to favor,’ observes this | eminent commentator, “was their popularity as | acting plays at the Globe, and it was not until they came to be read as books that 1t occurred 10 | people unconuected with the theatre to ask who | Wrote them.” | Now, the most important bearing is with regard | to these two plays which the vook originally con- | tained, but which now are missing, the connecting thread having been cut. It is vroDable that this manuscript was copied irom one beioi to | Bacon, vecause none vf its contents had appeared | iu print; for if they had it would have veen cheaper to have bought them than to bave made | copies. @ppearance ot ys.’ Again, the copying of so many | &rticles into one nook would seem to indicate that | Ttoey Were copied from the sole and original manu- script preserved in one place o1 deposit. und as | the Majority o1 whe pieces were of Bacon’s compo- sition, that the work was done by his permission ; | perhaps in his own house.

Another curiosity unmentioned in the grticie has reference to the affairs of Ireland and the Essex treason, which 18 01 importance tn this connection, since the appearance of the play of “Richard IL” irritated the disturbed condition of ‘affairs, and the publication of Dr. Hayward’s book added alarm to the already awakened fears of Elizabeth and aroused her hp oid against the play | and the theatres. Kssex is placed under ries, Hayward is sent to the Tower, the book issup- prgened, and the Queen, 10 an interview with jacon, distinctiy taunts him with “a matter which grew irom him, but went abous in others’ | names ;” “being, in tact,” urges Judge Holmes, | “no other than the piay itself.” A brief account | of this really singular affair rans that, late in the year 159%, while Essex was under ar- Fest, Bacop, having had access to Her Majesty’s presence, speaks in apology and Telates the following anecdote:—“But I could | ever prevail with ber, and she plainiy had me | 1p jealousy that | was not hers entirely, but still had inward and deep respect for my lord (Essex) more than s' at that time with her wiil and jeasure. About the same time | remember an answer of mine in a matter which had some afMfin- ity with my lord’s cause, which, tnough it grew irom me, went about in others’ names; for Her Majesty, being mightily incensed with that book— Which Was viedicated to my Lord of Essex, being @ story of the first year of King Henry IV., think- ing it a seditious prelude to put into the peopie’s head boldness and Jaction, said she nad an opii i0R tbat there was treason in it, and as¥ed me if 1 could not find any places in it whicn might be drawn within case of treason, whereto I answered, ‘For treason surely | i find non but for ielony, very mans.’ And wheu Her Majesty bastilyasked me wherein, | 1 told her that the uuthor had committed very ap- arent thelt, for he had taken most of the sen- nees of Cornelius Tacitus and translated them Ante Englisb and put them into his text.” Now ‘it 18 impossible not to agree with Judge Holmes that this ‘book’? went only in tne name of Ha: ‘ward himself, His name was signed to the dedi- cation of it; he was sent to the Tower for it; he | vonfessed himseif the author of it in apologetic let- | ter. It Was attributed to one else; and there is no i weason to doubt the autporship of it, now that the fact Was well Known to Bacon and the Queen. Bu:, considering the character of the book, its ‘near affinity with the tragedy of “Kichard II.,” as weil us with Essex’s cause and the gon relations of Essex, Bacon and Eliza- eth, it becomes highiy probaole, if not quite cer- | ain that io thus bringing up tris matter 1st Bacon’s intercession, with the suggestion of trea- wou, she elther knew or strongly suspected ihat | Bacon the author of the play and meant to | throw it up at him in this manner. Bacon sees | her drirt and endeavors to parry the bio’ t. Indeed, w short time alter the se: layward, when Lambard was waiting upon Her | Majesty, she exclaimed, “I am Richard; know you | not that Aud feferring to Exsex she contin. | ued:—“He that will forget God will also lorget his | benetactors.”” This tragedy was piayed forty umes | fn the open streets aud houses.+ For this reasone ing, us weil as tor the keen explanation of the theit wom Tacitas, we @re indebted to Judge | Holmes, That Hayward had trausiated oe i at that | ‘gely upon the “3 | bus” 8 Well estab- ssopher himself states:—"*Of ali sto- think Tacitus gimpiy the best.” In “Richard li.," act iL, scene 4, we find tue follow. | dag verses :-— + on the ew and lean-look'd provhets whispe: Kich men look sad, and Tamang ds .

THE BOYLSTON BANK ROBBERY. enter WainieS Curious Story of a Burglar’s Life—-The Career of Charles Bullard. ‘The approaching trial at Boston of Charles Bullard, alias ‘Piano Charlie,” one of the most celebrated robbers ef this country, for participa- tion in the purglary of the Boylston Bank five years go, promises to elucidate some very curious facts. When arrested in this city a few weeks ago he was almost without money, and the majority of nis old fiends bad turned their packs upon him.

Shortly after this the detectives obtained | information thet Bullard and Marsh had taken refuge in Canada. They were brought back and | lodged in White Plains Jail, in Westchester | county. A letter to Bullard trom a New York Police official was jound while he was impris- oned in Canada, torn in fragments, but was put together and read by the detective who had him in charge. Bullard and Marsh were brought from Canada, at the same time as the celebrated Frank Reno and Charles Anderson, who had robbed the Adams Express Company at Seymour, Indiana, on the 19th of May, 1868, BECOVERY OF 4 PORTION OF THE SPOILS. / The capture of Bullard, Marsh aod Putnam | Brown, led to the recovery of upward of $100,000 | ofthe money, &c., stolen irom the Merchants’ | Cnion Express.

At half-past eleven o’clock yesterday morning, as Roundsman William McLaughlin, of the Four- teenth precinct, was arresting James Higgins, of No. 141 Mott street, on a charge of being drunk and disorderiy, and while on his way to the sca- ton house with the prisoner he was assaulted by @ number of Higgins’ friends at the corner of Hes- ter and Mott streets, who attempted to rescue the prisoner. The roundsman fought bravely, at tbe same time holding on to his | prisoner, who was making desperate efforts to escape, and finally succeeded in throwing the oMicer into the basement of No. 165 Hester street, severely injuring him. As soon as Mc- Laughlin regained the sidewalk he went in pursuit of Higgins, Who was running through Hester street in the direction of Mulberry, and when ne reached the corner of the latter street he sttempted to enter a liquor store. ‘the door was locked, so that seized by the officer, whom he attempted to throw; but vy the use of his ciub the officer knocke ail his wrestling motions out of his head, The roundsman’s raps for help were heard by Officers McClellan and Layden, of the same precinct, who hurrried in the direction of the sound, and had just arrived in time to pre- vent @ second attack on the oficer by the triends of the prisoner. The oficers then dispersed the gang o! desperados and assisted their bleeding brother officer to take hig prisoner to the station house, in Mulberry street.

A Spiritualistic Seance by Medium War- ren=Great Excitement and Uproar Among the Gentiles—An Indian Chief Called From His Grave. Last evening Tammany Hall was filled to over- flowing witn a respectable audience of ladies and gentlemen, who had gathered from the announce ment that a spiritual seance was to be given bya man named T. Warren, hitherto unknown to met- Topolitan fame, but who had been winning bucolic laurels as a medium and ‘“materializer” in our rural districts. The hail was quite crowded, ana the audience was composed of many curious in- gredients, the chief ingredient being the curiosity seeker. There were two or three hundred well dressed young men who never by any possibility know what to do with themselves on Sunday even- ing; there was a large percentage of people of both sexes wno had a married and settled look, | and in the iront aud best seats @ galaxy of Spirit- ualista sat in eager hope and with untiring faitn for the demonstrations that did not come off. Aslim built man in & worn suit of black clothes, having @ lignt complexion and long hair, whose name vi- brated during the evening as Mr. Awiel Cneak, acted as the lecturer, and introduced the “mani- jJestations” whenever these were performed.

A constant state of uproar existea owing to the fes- tive behavior the Spiritualists, who, sitting in the front seats, endeavored by every possible means in their power to intimidate those who dared to make any suggestions as to whar snould be permitted. George Francis Train was present, and was asked to act a8 a committee of one ta make proper investigation into the manifestations which were advertised to be made by Mr. Warren, Train, with bia usual felicity, asked that Dr. Miiler, of toe Turkish Baths, sboula act in his stead, aod the latter gentieman being chosen speuaey took bis place on the platiorm to watch | ne proceedings. A man, who was Colonel also went and | e occasion for much merriment by his out- spoken incredwity in everything that was done, r. Awtel Cheak insulted the wudience a great umber of times, and the audience seemed to en- joy it considerabiy during the intervals in the “manitestations,” These “manifestations” were nothing more or less than clever tricks of sleight of hand, and the entire periormance was nothing else but @ weak plagiarism on the Davenport | Brothers’ busine: ness shown by those people in every detail In many cases the periormance was quite stupid, and Warren, the medium who exhibited himself in @ cabinet on the stage, must have felt terribly bold to have endeavore to keep up even a show of interest in the proceed ings.

LEWISTON, Me., Oct. 18, 1874, Adesperate and well organized attempt was made by a number of prisoners to escape from the Auburn Jail at six o'clock P. M. to-day. Lewis Robinsun, alias Smith, of Portland, # prisoner, struck the jailer, Littlefeld, with @ glass bottle, as the latter, followed by the turnkey, Wash- burne, was opening the jaii door to serve supper to the prisoners, The jailer was knocked down, but he clutched Robinson, and both went to the floor together. <A pris- oner named Allen struck the turnkey and knocked him down, Allea then escaped. The turnkey had a confiict with Robinson at the out- side door and discharged a revolver at him. The shot took effect in the scalp and Robinson. followed by the turnkey, left the jail through the door, but Was overbauled and brought back by the turnkey.
