_Shakspeare in Sweden._--The writings of Shakspeare would appear from

the following fact to be read with as much avidity and delight in Sweden

as in his native country. A translation of his plays by Hagberg,

Professor of Greek in the University of Lund, is now in course of

publication. Of this, twelve volumes have appeared; and although the

first edition consisted of no less than two thousand copies, the whole

have been sold off, and a second edition is in preparation. Professor

Hagberg's translation is most favourably spoken of by those who are

qualified to judge of its merits.
