This passage, which is the elfed of - connubial solicitude, is etuelly misconstrued by Sir Frederick,. who induces Mrs. St. Orme to, consider it as the result of treacherous and barbarous infidelity on the part hcrihttsband. At length, St. t)rme, anxious to behold " firs KtO, returns to England. and "demaritls.a sight, of her fcorrr her father, who refuses to let her husband see her, or know Where•she is confined. St. Orme-in. agony pres:nts a pistol, and demands satisfaction. In the struggle that ensu ed the pistol went oil, and lodged its contents in Sir Frede . rick, who dies soon after. The on;), person present,. on this melancholy occasion, is Latiretta. St. Orme is taken up and imprisoned, ancliat the opening of the Play, lie is about to be tried for the murder of his father-in-law.. Lauretta retires into a place of obscurity, in order - to avoid the horrid neces say i vt,giving evidence against her father. The _rrosecution is carried on' by Sir' Edward •'Delauny, the Nephew of Sir Frederick, who has left him all his, fortune on the death of Mrs. Orme. Sir• Edward has placed Mts. ()rine tinder the care of Farmer Nightshade, a despicable 'minion of his put; poses, and she is closely confined ill his house. Henry Sap ling, a spirited and • amiable Officer in- -the Witish Naky,_ is the particular friend of St. Orme, and as the haunt of-I..itt retta had been discovered by the perseverance and vigilance. of Sir Edward's agents ; Henry procures her a male. disguise, and recommends ler as a servant to Nightshade. A t the command of Nightshade,, Lauretta sings a inelatitholy expressive of the unhappy state of her fortune. The sound ,eaehes the ear of hiss. st,...artt3r,. whose exelannitions in consequence engage the attention of her daughter, anci lie latter suddenly takes Off the-chitin frOm the doot and releases , her. A tender interview ensues, ..but the Farmer opposes their departur front .his ;louse. 'Henry Sapling again fortu nately appears, and takes them away under his protet . tion. St. Orme is brought to trial;'but, for want of a .Witness • against him is acquitted. HO instantly. hastens to Sir• Ed wards to demand his wife. The latter rejects his intreaties. Mrs. St. Orme is,-indeed, averse to-see her husband, being pre possessed against him by the false charges of het late father. Lauretta, in' order to raise coinptinEtion ha the mind of Sir Edward, has a painting of a vestal Virgin buried' alive, il luininated, as it bears some tcseinblatice to the state to whicri he had doomed her mother.' Sir Edward,- with much agita tion, but at length with hardened impenitence, resists the appeal of the picture; and at last Mrs. Sr. Orme rushes into the room, and Sir Edward then gives way to feelings of con trition, resolves to surrender- all the hereditary 'property - to her, and relieves the .feelings of St. Orme, by assuring him, that Sir Frederick died a natural death. Such -is the melancholy part of this -play. There - is ano ther plot relative to Mr. and Mrs. Sapling. Thelon - net - had been a simple Country. Squire, but is flaisked, as lie terms it, into a fashionable Gentleman; by his wife, - who encourages the visits of Mr. Privilege, a man who lives by'What . wits he possesses, and by the aid of 'a few trifling bur jashionatte ta lents, is able to procure a :fithionable subsistence. The'wite intends to let Privilege marry her husband's' ward, .1-lonoria . , and. Sapling assents to this disposal of her hind. Honoria, however, is attached to the generous Henry Sapling, ,the *Nephew of her' Guardian. Henry,,is ako .very much.'at tached to her, but is connected with a pretended woman of quality, Lady Sensitive, • who is in fact a rapacious 'vvritnan of the town. The Audience only' hear of Lady Sensitive, as they only heal . of Mrs. Grundy, in Speed the 'Plough. But the great Agent of the Piece, by whose Delayr and Blunders Most of the events are promoted and retarded, is Postpone, an Attorney, a man who is supposed to be divided between business and pleasure, and Who, ,by the slightest call of the -latter, is induced to negled the most important concerns. After a multiplicity of ludicrous incidents, which we will not venture to describe, Privilege is defeated in his attempt's to obtain Honoria by artifice, Henry's Mistress, Lady Sens!, tive, who, he thought, was dying with grief on account of his absence, goes off with an Irish Officer, and Henry . and Honoria, with the Consent of her Guardian, are to have all their virtues rewarded in marriage. An attempt to try Mi.. REYNOLDS'S produCtiqns by the ruler of dramatic corriosition, would be ah_ surd, .as he has never attended to those rules, and holds them in defiance. They Who go to his Plays must prepare themselves for diverting extravagance. He has, in his late pieces indeed, interwoven a Pathe tic Story, in the manner 'of the German School.. The Comedy before us: is a medley of the mournful and the ludicrous. It is, in fatq, a -melancholy Arc,7;el, blended with a 'whimsical Farce andif we can ad mit that such an odd compound is fit for the. Stage, : it must be acknowledged that' he has mingled them 'together with dna. His melanCholy scenes in. terest the affeCtions, and 'those of the sportive kind • exercise the riSible muscles. After all, he' may irertaiW be . (Vended upon the Sime . principle upon which.Dr: JthiN . sorr defends SH4KESPEARE, if w e maylaPply fhe'paSste,e to writers so widely different, without a -. profanation of .Criticism. Theworld presents - " a chaos 'of mingled purposes andscasual tiesi" in which, 'as the great Critic says, " at the :same time, the . ReVeller is !lasting to his wine, and the Mourner burying his 'Friend, in which the ma •lignity of one `is sometimes defeated by the. frolic of another ; and Many mischiefs and many benefits are done and hindered, without design." If this he a true representation of life, it ,may' surely be exhi bited in the Drama, which professes to be . the mirror . .of life. ---Whether ; R Whether, however, Mr. :Y NOl.Di does not 'hold forth Caricatures rather than real Portraits, a• fair question,; but as a faithful.. delineation of Characier might be' too tame in its ef. feti, the Dramatist, in the present state 'of things, is obliged, in some degree, to resort to e)tagge s k . ration and burlesque.—The idea of bringinga mar' to trial, for . the murder of his fatherLin'-law, and . the confinement of a - Lady, on a charge of insanity, are certainly matters of too serions and melancholy. a kind, for the comic Drama, and nothing but the success of the Gernian .
