I ii II • jeAth"ACC it to , say, that the general names aro 4..l:zined as in the origins!. There is Marinion ('lr. 11. K''emliie), D HYton (Mr. lfambliti), Constance Orger),, Clans . (Mrs. 11". We.t), the lies! (Mr. J.WailAsh), And so through itettriy the whole et:An /opt°. The stray in &istance is as folows: Morniion, who butt won the affections of con•gancc, sees a more Wealthy prize in Clara Fah-(.'lure. Without re hi; love to the thrtner, who had, it should be ohs?rved, thliowtal him from the convent walls, he pays his addresses to the hit er, and is supported in his by his S.wereign, //e/o:tb I lc fits as rival in the iffectitals of (lore, in Dr li'dton ; and in order to get 'id of him, he it him of treason, They fight ; and Dein/tom is wounded, (supposed mortally.) Mar- . inion thim sets out Ott a mission to Scotland, and is accompanied by Constance, in the disguise of a page: He is aware of her prestmtv, and trusts her on his ionrney to some priests, who discover her secret e and bring her before an ecclesiastical tribunal, and with her the piece opens. De Wilton mcantitne movers t . ,-om his wounds, tat one knows how, and accompanies Ilarmisoi as a guide into Scotland, in the disguise of a Pahucr. King *Fontes, notwithstanding- his friendly reception of iktrotion, continues his hostile preparations' he hauls his troops over the bord e r ; M arm i ali i s pre pared to dispute the passage—the battle of Flodden field is fought—.Macittion killed—and Constance comes is just time enough to receive his last breath, and an aranwance Fr,an this outline it will be az-en, that there 'were incidents sufficient in the story to have worked up a tolerable melo-dramatic romance: but for want of skilful assuagement, the author hes railed in exciting much interest. Whotever of merit existed in the piece was due to the perfUrtners, who, to do them justice, made the best of their parts. Mr. H. Ketuble did his best in ilkrinion. though we cookss the taste of the managers had been better evinc ed in assigning that character to Mr. H. Johnston, ' whose talents were thrown away in the part of th e Host. Johnston, however, made the most of that cha racter. by his genuine Scottish dialect, anti that humour which he always throws into the gay and active High lander. Mr. Hamblin was respectable as De Wilton. ()sherry, as the fr iar, gave the few sentences allotted to him in his usual style of good humour; anti Penlcy, as the Seothsh King, made the most of the author's con acptinn of that character. Mrs. West and Mrs. Orger, a: flora and Constance, were in their best style; mid Miss Cubbit sang a pretty air as Lady Heron (we be here); but why she did sing, or why she appeared at all (we speak of the character only), noixaly knew. ft is but justice to add, that the whole went off without opposition, and its repetition was received with ap plause. The piece was succeedid by the farce of "Modern Ant;times.' As SOCII as the curtain was raised, the en , ct" the Pantomime" was set up by some silly Dandies in the ph, and so much tumult ensued in the attempt to outcry it, by " Go on, go on," that fin- some time the performers could not !a, beard. At length Mr. 8, Ke•mble cattle forward and said, that in obeili. nee to the public opinion the late pantomime was withdrawn ; but as the managers were anxious to please by the produc tion of a pantomime, they had endeavoured to get up one which would be ready in a few days. This expla nation iati , fied the audience, and the farce was suffer ed to proceed. Letters from Amsterdam state, that the house of Beerenbrook, the establishment which has attracted so much notice from the extent of its speculations in the Government securities of France, is at length declared in a state of insolvency. The ruin of this commercial house, which, though not perhaps of the first order, maintained a very high rank at Amsterdam, is chiefly to be ascribed to those speculations, of the magnitude of which some idea may be formed by stating, that M. Beerenbrook at one deriod held 4,000,000 of rentes, forming a capital of 80,000,000 of francs ; and that every full of one per cent. that took place in the funds, constituted a difference of more than 40,0001. sterling. M. Beerenbrook has not retained any stock in his own name for some weeks past; but the loss caused by the decline of the rentes during the present month, falls on those exchange brokers who became his securities ut the last liquidation, and will ofeoto se be enocmous. The fidlowing scene has occurred in Cork:—The county were sumnuared to address the Regent on the demise of the Queen. Lord Carboy , . moved the a& dress; Mr. Boyle proposed a nominal amendment.-6 P.:.:•ties were strongly divided, and the Sheriff obliged to adieurn. Lord Carbery Jew addressed an indignant t.tsele to the county. Lord Ca lereagh was so much indisposed with the gout on :*:onday, that it was neceasary to lift hint in told out of his bed ; naked he wits scarcely able to move at all without assistance.
