The chief characters are composed of Adelaide and Rachel, the niece and daughter of Old Dowdle, who, during the absence of Lord Esmond, acts as his steward—of Mans, a rustic servant—and Jack Connor, an honest gentleman farmer, beloved by Rachel, but opposed by Old Doodle, Superadded to these are a FreneA Count, to whom Lord Es nsond is indebted--and Frill, a coxcombical servant, the rival of Mans in the effections of Mary. a fair and frolicksome The farce was extremely well cast.

Mr. Tuateett comaueuced his course on the Rules of Perspective. The Learned Professor commenced hyilluding to the importance of a knowledge of the aides of Perspective to the Student in Art, though he nt the same time admitted the uninviting nature of this branch. of study. When its parts consisted in the erratigement of mathematical lilies and tangent., and the application or geometrical rules, it was evi dently a study which had no popular attraction, and which must alone interest the Student. front his firm conviction of its utility anti necessity. He r ec oll ec t e d well the information which he re ceived when a Student at the Arademy. and the observation of Sir Joenue REYNOLD', that the time and season of instruction was at all times in force, and that it depended solely on the Artist to Make it operative end useful for him.elf. The Rules of Perspective were most resential for in Artist ; it had been always held as an axiom, that a picture which was correctly drawn uccord jog to geometrical rules, was much more entitled to prone as a work of merit, than one which pos sessed good colouring, but was deficient in the forms and effect which perspective could alone fur nigh. It was a remarkable fact, that when in Athens, Putrnes and ARCHIMEDES were both etn cloyed in thawing the form of a statue meant to be placed on an elevated pedestal, and to commemorate a public character, the drawing of ARCHIMEDES was universally admired, while that of PHIDIAS was at the moment disregarded. The former had all the geometrical lines admirably arranged, and adopted to the closest and most fa.tidious inspec tioo—the latter hod, from his deep knowledge of perspective, so formed his figure, ati to produce the effect inte nded for a work of Art, from the elevation at which it wee to be seen by the public—the con sequence was, that when both statues were made and placed on the pedestal intended for their reception, theme by PHIDIAS was universally admit ell, and that by AECHIMIDES rejected as wholly nu& for the purpose. This adaptation of parts, so as to pro duce effect by perspective, was observable in the celebrated Monte Cavallo Figures, which were el evated to attract admiration from the height on which they were placed. The Learned Professor quoted the late Mr. Opus's opinion of the merit of the ftehool of the CARRACCpl—that had they NW. ceedesi in uniting. as they intruded. all the beau ties of the preceding masters, they would have put to the blush the admirers of 'Deny of the ancient works. The fine work of JULIO ROMANO, repre senting The Hears giving Proveader to the Horses of the Sus, would not be less beautiful, by be ing in its drawing more true ; nor would the celebrated work of Tice Tranefiguration be less admirable, if it had some of the chiara-seuso of the CAULACCIS. The Learned Professor then touched a little on the principles of Architec ture. and introduced some fine drawings of the College of Physicians, in Warwick -street, of Bloomsbury Church, an d other public buildings in the metropolis; he particularly dwelt upon the architecture of the Admiralty. sod appropriately described it as remarkable for nothiug but a union of incongruities. The Professor concluded by impressing upon the atteution of the Student the imperative necessity of his being well grounded in a knowledge of the Rules of Perspective—to know how to elevate, to compress, whereto be short, and where to be prodigal in the application of or nament, was, he said, one of the first advantages which an Artist could possess. Tbis Lecture was very well attended. It would, we presume, be a very desirable object if the Learned Professor of Perspective, who is on doabtedly the first landscape painter in Europe, would, io his Lectures, refer in a more particular sommite to the admirable drawings with which lie illustrates his inks; he would by that oxen, ren der his discourse touch more clear and nide oatory, Mr. CARLISLE, in his Lectures upon Anatomy, eqessionally places himself before the skeleton or the living subject, and points out to de sionstretion the principles it is his object to enforce. if Mr. Toast* would take the seine trouble oc. cssiooalty before his drawings, the Student would derive incalculable benefit from this alteration io his practice. At present many of his best precepts are hastily delivered, the drawings which illustrate them as hastily pieced on and removed from the board, and the whole busi ness of the Lecture goat through like • matter of course, and as if the audience were already fully ecguainted with the subject. Mr. TWINES knows too weU that the Students have much to learn, which I he is tellable, and we are sore willing, to teach I them.

The visit of this illustrious personage has been productive of some little bustle in Plymouth, and afforded, we hope, Much gratification to himself. Like preceding visitors, of equal rank, but of a different country, his attention was excited by every thing of a grand or curious nature, and to jud..,e from his sensibility to such spectacles, he never ap peared to be an indifferent spectator. His Highness commenced his tour of curiosity on Saturday, by visiting the Dock-yard, which he inspected minutely. The English colours were hoisted, and other honour. paid to him in the same Planner as to the Archdukes of Russia. Amongst numerous objects that attracted his notice, was the diving ih-11, in which he descended, with one of his suite, and Mr. Smith, the conductor. On reaching the bottom, lie took up a stone, which he was highly pleased with, and which it is probable he will preserve for some time, as a memorial o► his descent into the sob-marine regions. Whilst in the Dock-yaid, lie saw a ship repa►ring, and leap ing on a scaffold alongside, lie borrowed a hammer from a young shipwright and drove a cooper until. The hammer was returned with a one pound note. The artificer smiled, observing " That nail Willi well drove, your Highness ;" and turning round, drily addled, " when will your Highness come again t" His Highneu dined this day at Weakley's Hotel. On Sunday he partook of the hospitalities of Mount Eilgetsnibe, with Coont Fiartbigg and Major Heylinger, two of his sake; Lord Exmouth, Sir Thomas sod Lady Hardy, Sir Thomas Tyrwhitr, Mr. and Mrs. Carew, Commissioner Shield, Caplan' PeHew, Captain F. Pellets, Mr. Molyneux, and Mr. Harris, and also spent the night there. _ On the following day, after examining the Break water, shipping, ace. under the accustomed salutes, his Highness witnessed the launch or the Dove cut. te►, froto the Dolt-yard slip. He then proceetied to dine with Lord Exmouth, and a Loge party, comprising the heads of the departnieots of the public service; and most of the abuse-mentioned party. On Tuesday his Highness nail' dined at Mount Edgeumbe. and next day, after irrealamting qt Whitten's Royal Hotel. lie pursued his journey to Portsmouth. The deportment of this di waited visitor is spoken d in high terms of commen dation. by all who had the pnvilege of approach ing him.
