The distresses of a peasant's daughter, seduced by•the son of an opulent Noble, form the leading feature of the drama ; and combined with the dignified rectitude of a State President, who refuses 4• compromise his judicial character to gain 14 'roma', he loves ; and this character again re hrved, by others. who unite the pleasant style of fume with what nearly approaches to scenes of • superior genteel comedy, constitute a pleasing bast essesshlt, which was uncommonly corn acted thronghout ; tin:l the additional credit gained by the Manager's Nlobse, was rendered still more honourable by the derrmined zeal which seemed to animate all li. corps drionatique.
