Mr. CIIISTALL, and severatirtherMemhers of the Society. exclusive reother contributors, among whom we were glad to find Mr. /hypos. Mr. W. GLOVIit. and several otber•Artists who are held in high estimation by the public.' Mr. HAYOOII has exhibited some sketches of heeds, the portrait of i Polish Jew, arid another of his friend Woftosivoirrit, the Poet. These works, though, of themselves unimportant, and merely alustrative . of individual character. yet sufficiently tishibit those strong traits of feeling and energy which place this Artist so high in his profession. The outline is bold and vigorous, and where the Artist intends a likeness, as in the. Navin* of the Polish Jew and Mr. Woaoswonvit, the genuine character of the originals is an indelibly stamped on the copies, that both their featuresand the pow erful expression which is peculinr to them, are in stantly recognised with jest approbation. Mr. GLovea has some very good Landscapes. They are well coloured-, , and there is a truth and good selection front 'mitre iii his works in this Exhibition, which does credit to his taste and in dustry. CIIIITALCS Transformation of Daphne into a !morel is a good poetical composition: . The Cupid is rather heavy limbed, and ticks° buoyant as it should have been to represent the winged mes senger of love. Mr. G. F. itoesoa's drs/Suegi are. as usual. in the very best style. His views are uniformly pic turesque and beautiful. and his lake scenery has admirable stillness' and transparency. The perspec tive in hi* landscapes is always correct, and pro ductive of the mostpleasiug effect. Mr. STSPHANUPT has several pictures coloured in his usual vivid style. lie has made drawings of the state apartments in the Royal Palaces, which are very beautiful. _ _ i• • • Mr. Wit.B and Mr. CATTERMonE have made good drawings of similat , places, the' former in the best style; his reprrientation of the Gothic archi tecture at Windsor is really admirable. There are a number of integrating works iu this Exhibition, to which we may take au early oppor tunity of adverting ; and there are others, which, though entitled to praise in some parts, are 3 et open to aminadversion, from the speculative manner in which the Artists have indulged in principles, or rather capricious notions, of colouring, nut founded iu nature, or within the legitimate pi cornice of art.

MARLOWE'S original, was last night performed. for the firat time, at this theatre. Of MARLOWE'S faintly, hide is known. We learn from ‘Voon's Athens, Oxoniensis, that he studied an successfully at Oxford, as to obtain a degree in that University. Soon after he had completed his studies, he oime to London, and was emp l .nyed in the double cops city of player and dramatist. We have no record of his abilities as en actor--but, as a poet, he has bequeathed us ample means for the formation of an accurate judgment. In all his plays a rich vein of poetry--a hold originality of idea—traits of am ardent and powerful mind—are clearly perces,- tilde. But the extraordinary subjects which lie chose to dramatise—the horrible characters which he draw—the butcheries by which moat of hie tragedies are disagored—hmeiong Consigned them to the shelf, lie tirade the stage a slaughter-house —and, if he rarely troubled his audience with a mural lesson, he took care they should have plenty of murder. Correct taste must have been at a very low ebb indeed, when such play, es Doctor Faus tus—Len's Dosiision--and The Jew of Aloha (is it was originally produced by the author), were not only endured but admired. Had MAR- Lows been happier in the formation of his plots, his works would, at this day, have tilled a very high rank on the stage. But the Cidtivated mind revolt, from subjects full u( Istirror, and characters debased by the worst vices, It is iii.vints that they are set off by the splendoer'of poetry. It only excites our regret that genius should be so basely prostituted. Were we to credit sortie of Matts.owe's historians, who have depicted burn as a wretched Atheist, we should be inclined to think, that sketches of his owes cha racter are to be found : in until of those drain, by him. But we are rather led to believe, that principles have been attributed to him. by the enthusiastic religionists of his day, on account, perhaps, of the greater liberality of his sentiments, which did not belong to him. That lie lived luxuriously, there is no doubt—that lie died mi serably, in r " fewd quarrel," there is as little. The Jew of Malta. as now produced, is sof tened down considerably. The clmmeter of Ba raboo. the Jew, was evidently written in com pliment to that intolerant feeling. which too long existed against the Jewish race. A feeling as ab horrent to true rtitgiuti as it is to sound reason. To religion—becatise religion teaches utsiversal be nevolence; to reason, because a moment's reflection must sheer, that, if you wish to make a man a vii laiu, the beat mode is, continually to 'trove to him that you think him ,one. In these days. however, we look at such a picture merely as a represents. Lion of human Immo'', perfectly abstracted from any idea of sect or religion. The rave of the tragedy, as the name imports, is laid la Malta. The Turks, who hare long held the Maltese in ribjectiou, it oit an armament, under the conimaad of the Suites' Calyniath, for the perform of dessaiding the pay ment of a tribute, of which a mosiderslile armor is due-- Fernese, the Governor of Malta, semmons the Jews, and commands them to furnish the tribete-money—esek iadivi. deal of that *adios being called ma to subscribe half his property, wader the penalty, in cosset refusal, of having the whom seised. Sambas Si first Arrows, hat afterwards profit's ooe.lialfof his wealth. The Governor rejects hes offer--slirrets the whole of his property to be confiscated--and tramfornal his house into a Muniery. Baratta% who, when suamosoired to attend with his brethren, guessed that a part of bioakelies would be demanded, took the precautiou of secreting vast Rosen, its yr gold and precious stones in hi. home. To re , giver their, he prevails on his (laughter, Abigail, to. pre- Mud conversiou to the Catholte faith. and by this stratagem to procure admission to the tMw asmaery, where, snider a certain board, she would Iliad his. treasure bidden. This retinue succeeds, and Deraliss once more appears as the rich Jew of Malta. He now pious the means of revenging himself WI his enemies. Lodutritk, the sun of the Go vernor, and Dos Matthias, a young Nobleman, are both ena moured of his &tighter Ahigait. He artfully inflames the passions of the rivals, and, by a forged challenge from Ludo wick to Mailbags, incites them to a duel i they both fall ia the combat. Abigail, who is tenderly attached to Matthias, learns that her father has caused his death, and takes the veil it earnest. overcome by grief, she soon after dies, having previously confessed to Father Barna:dine the knowledge which she had obtained of her father's cruel cutidoct. The friar, palmistd of this secret, waits on Birabas, who, twits certain biota, perceives that bis crime is discovered. Ttse friar's death is, therefore, necessary, sud he is strangled by Ithatoore, the faithful slave of Rarebits, though not before the &edict:see, as is she case in the original. Bellaniire courterau, now appears on the scene. She wishes to share the riches of the Jew—and, fur that purpose', she mon barite a stroug affection fur Itbamore. He is flatter ed by such a conquest—awl, determined to live splendid -Ir, writes repeatedly to the Jew for money; as the slave threatens, if he be refused, to unfold his master's clones, is regularly remitted to him. Rarebits determines on revenge. He visits the coactesaa in the disguise of a minstrel, and poisons the wine, while Wetmore, bellamirn, and her bravo, MAIM Itorzo, are carouritig. Prior to this, however, Ithaintire, who had o,lrook deeply, has discovered to the courteous and Philia borso, the crimes which Ilinibas had perpetrated nosh hi. assistance. They hasten to the GaTertiur, and impeach amebas, who is condemned to die. The poison now operates tin his victims—aid,sowtafter they have accused the Jew, they expire. Becalms has cunningly swallowed a narciitie--and, appearing to he dead, is thrown over the walls. He is not ; hoirever,serionsly hurt--and, when lie awake., he offers to conduct the Turkish troop, who are besieging the place (the Govern's, haviag ultimately refused to pay the doisim) into the heart of the town. This be dues—and, fur bis treachery, is sppoisited Governor. He now proposes, fur a large rum of money, to dellier the Turks into the heads of Fernexe, his predecessor--so offer which the latter gladly accepts. Harsher proposes to feast the Tairkish suldien, in • budditag outside of the town, moiler tibitheonsbustibles are placed.

The Tiirkish troops are how ever, destroyed by the thin-=sad Calrowash sad by slicers, sow without resource, are retained by Ferassie seise:nage*. This tragedy has been judiciously altered. To bring it forward at all was a dangerous under:. titkistA ; but, the most objectionable parts hating beets omitted—all reference to the poisorting, by Barobus, of an entire nunnery, together with the ribald remarks on ousts mud friars, basing been ex. 'lunged—the death of the Jew, who, in the original, Is made to Nil into a boiling cauldron, being less hors Oily produced—it now poisestirs strong claims to public support. The character of the Jew is drawn with great nitre. Every sentence lie utters is full of nerve and vigour. He is the soul of the puree-- Mid. imprint.% frequently on the scene, the tragedy rattly lags. Bar u is a port precisely in Mr. Eith'e bile. It seems as if it were written fur litm—aud he played it to the, life. filliallhaS is souther 6hyluck—but Wore sweeping and deter. J V rw~ mined in his revenge. Mr. KLAN, whom we may denominate the Bimini of aelore—sometllllell happy in touchts of feeling, but never so power. ful as when he describes the dirk and deadly passions of our nature—seized the spirit of has author with a gigantic grasp of oboes. and placed before ua the boldest picture of coo ping sod revenge we ever wituessed. The first act of the tragedy is the beat—and here Mr. KEAN'S acting was indescritoitthy fine. The swell ing conscioustiess of posseesing countless wealth, in spite of the hatred of those by whom his 'ultimo was oppressed—the proud feeling, that his race, though scattered— had sr-ambled up More wealth, by far, than those that brig of faith," — were expressed. not inertly in words, but iii looks and actions. They formed the prologue to the more passionate scenes which follow. We speak particu larly of that with the Govertior, where Barobas is commanded to give up hit property—and that iu which, ,wile ostensibly cursing his daughter, he privately apprises her of the spot in winch trea sure sib secreted. The foiiiier scene was 'replete with bitter scowling sarcasm. The curse with which It concludes, was fearful—it stun vibciltes on • esti. The !utter, a most difficult v scene, was atattaged with pre-eminent art. Throughout the tragedy no available :point wits litiaSed by this admirable actor. Wherever passion could be moved, he succeeded in eliciting it. lit the fourth act, Mr. KRAN rang a very pretty air, with considerable 'science—And, what is tor tutiuitehy more consequence, with great taste end feeling. It was warmly encored. His entire performance . vies received with enthusiastic markt of approbation, and, when he fell, the waving of hats and liatidker chiefs, in the pit, was universal. •Mrs. BARTLRY Austaitied the part of Abig•o‘l very effectively.
