The drama was receivid. with tie *awe tor diminished measure of lipproba. lion as on the rat sinus nights of its performance. After the play a new musical 'romance (in two acts), called . 1 he Batik of Bothwell Brigg, was produced for the first time. It is founded, as its title indicates, on the story of Old Mortality, one SCOTT'S ',writ., that everlasting fund of modem dramatic eotcriaininents. The principal eharaMmo are represrided as follow : Lord Frandale DaruSet. (Wont( Clarerhatue Connor. • 'Akio* Brlleaden Serjeant Bothwell Corner. 'Nears Morton. Gad,Vl . Chapman. Dowse Plrie.

W. are inclined to think that Old Mortality is net very capable of being successfully dramatised, comprising, as it does, a vast portion of matter of a cast far too •gtave and voltam for the stage. But it dows not appear to us that in the adaptation rhiclt is the subject of our remark, the available vrnif.l4o,ll: have seen selected or improved on with etie'itioit.skilfest hand. From the shirt sketch above it it I t will be wen that the wooing, between Morton mid NARA is brought to 110 sort of conclu sion. But we humbly conceive that its existence lit:vital hero at all interwoven into the drama, which k is, the spectator should not be left in atter igeoranee as to how it terminated. We were ohm greotty disappointed in the omission of th' strikingly dramatic dialogue between Burley and llOthwell, at the close of the combat, which _t_fiftiAlierl latter's earthly career. The piece, • hue•eser, has several very interesting scenes and striknig incidents, and, as far as it goes, is well calculated to excite and fix attention. la addition to thli, it 'is surrounded with the most powerful auxiliaries its a series of exquisitely beautiful scene-rye end of the vwcelest and most fascinating inessie, evenl and instrumental. It was oleo largely indebted to the 'merits of the performers, who, with icJice a single exception, acquitted. themselves in the wont Tredilaltie 011111lef. Mr. EMERY was en titled to the very highest praise ; his personation of • • theiitunlicitv.and craft, the einereity and disrimu linion of Caddie. was truly excellent. We regret -taste the limit. to which we ore • vioilfined do not 'permit to particularise the merits of the other performers, particularly Mr. ABBOTT, Me". at,V.MPORT. Mrs. CONNOR. and Mrs. T. 1-lit.t.. 'We cannot, however. with any justice, avoid ob serving, that Miss M. Taste's performance of the heronie CditA, was marked by propriety and feel ing, and that , her execution of two songs (one of them among the sweetest of old Scotch stirs) was enthusiastically admired and encored. • At the dropping of the curtain there were some stmpiotsis of disapprobation manifested ; but the faitnioring acclamations had greatly the preponder ance; and Mr. Annorr, we presume (for we only judge from the motion of his lip., hearing being I impossible), announced the drams. fur repetition. The house was a full one. HAY-MARKET. Last night The School for Scandal, and a favourite farce, were presented at this Theatre, for the benefit of Miu BOYCE. It appears by the ad dress at the head of the bill that this Lady has been alwenied from the duties of her profession by a pro longed iltsttss, which had the effect of breaking up her connexion with the Drury-lane Theatre, where she lisd sustained the second range of female characters in comedy and tragedy, horn the re builihnj of the house down to the unfortunate • period in which her illness commenced.
