Thy stream of feeling which runs through this piece, is so ',lvor and pure, that we were inclined to regret its interrup tion by the sudden appearance of Henry Ass grams lllag, whose counter-navigation interrupts tlw regular course of the current, and thus mischievously interferes with the regular flow of our sensations. The characters of the three brothers. Tombs!, Madiboo, and Se!leo. are, in she marine. drawn with a free and vigorous haml the colouring is true to nature—and the contrast of the flan es in the groove, tends to nsake the pie turr Indite beautifully striking.

Turrihol, ac cost 'sued to field-drudgery, il" through that toil some and sedentary employment, acipured a harsh bhustisess—a satirical jocularity—often to be met wins amongst the ogresses horologes.

Probably there is no part of M. Crit.swes 'lrmnatic works in which greeter dtscnmiustion is evinced, !ban in the drawing of these niter chsraciers. The sentiments they utter hive been censored, as too refiiied for those per soufges by who n try are delivered.
