Whoever possesses the Henry Irving Shakspeare, started originally by my dear old enthusiastic friend the late FRANK MARSHALL, and now concluded by the new volume of plays, poems, and sonnets, possesses a literary treasure. The notes are varied, interesting, and all valuable. The illustrations exactly serve their purpose, which is the highest praise. MR. SMALLEY'S Letters are not to an Inconnue.
