      A N ENQUIRY into the PHILOSOPHY and RELIGION of SHAKSPEARE . By W . J . Birch , M . A ., New Inn Hall , Oxon , Author of the " Real and Ideal . " Lettered , in cloth , price 4 s . " A curious and even an attractive book . It is pervaded by a distinct purpose , sustained by Zealand industry . The defence of ? Othello' against the charge of lago's' insufficiency of motive , and the estimate of « Cas 6 io's' character , exhibit thought and criticism . "—Spectator . " This is one of the most marvellous book 3 produced in the nineteenth century . The author is in earnest , and his book is a serious and awe-inspiring work . "—Tablet . "The task of testing the great bard's religious sentiments in a manner most legitimate , has been ably accomplished by Mr . Birch . The book throws much additional light on the real structure of Shak 8 peare ' s mind . "—Weekly Dispatch . " Mr . Birch's attempt is to remove the veil that wraps the poet , curious to see whether or not his countenance ' shincth as that of angel . ' This unveiling Mr . Birch does with a darinjj , but a gentle hand . "—Leamington Courier . , " Mr . Birch ' s book is an elaborate and systematic exposition of the natural history of Shaks ^ pere ' s opinions—eloquent with facts , minute in analysis , faithful in detail , and impartial in execution . It is an anodyne to the parched spirit to turn to the fresh pages of Mr . Birch—redolent of a manly and dignified criticism , which keeps close to truth and disdains to pander to omnipotent opinion .

In the short space of lialf an hour they ensure perfect freedom from pain either of body or mind ; the most excruciating torments being subdued as perfectly as in a mesmeric Bleep . In smaller doses they soothe irritability of the nerves , and produce a p leasing tranquillity unattainable by any other known physical ajjent . The MESMERIC DROPS do not contain Opium nor Henbune , and although from its effects the active ingredients may be technically termed a narcotic , its exhibition is not attended with any of tlie ill effects which arise from the use of the narcotic drugs hitherto known . In many of the most distressing anddungoroue maladies , allaying pain and tranquillizing the sufferer i « tlie grand desideratum for effecting . 1 cure , and in cases of a less urgent character the happiest effects often follow the administration of remedies which soothe the nerves and allay irritability . In all such cases the MESMEltlC DROPS will be found an invaluable resource . Hold iu ltoxes Is . ljd ., 2 a . Ud ., 4 s .
