Most of us would like to know what the men of the _Past_ would say of the _Present_. If some old philosopher, for instance SOCRATES, exchanging robes for modern clothes, lest he should be followed by the boys and taken up by the police, could revisit this earth, walk our streets, see our sights, behold the scenes of our political and social life, and, contemplating this bustling age through the medium of his own quiet mind, set down his observations respecting us and our usages, he would write a work, no doubt, very interesting to her MAJESTY'S subjects. It would answer the purpose of a skilful literary enchanter to "unsphere the spirit of PLATO," or that of PYTHAGORAS, ARISTOTLE, or any other distinguished sage of antiquity, and send it out on its rambles with a commission to take, and report, its views of things in general. But such necromancy would have tasked even the Warlock of the North, would puzzle the wizard of any point of the compass, and, it is probable, could be cleverly achieved by no adept inferior to the ingenious MR. SHAKSPEARE.
