This small but valuable tract consists of the Five Dialognes which appeared 'lriginally in THE SUN, and which have been sue tessively copied into some of the loyal Provincial journals. The ItretNoToss, one of the oldest at►d most respectable firms of Bookseller s, not only in this country, hut in Europe, with a laud able sct►se of patriotism, have collected and pub lished them in a very cheap form, evidently proving That they are govetned by nobler feelings than the sordid consideration of profit, and, contrary to the banal practice of many who copy from out columns, have introduced them in the following %limner : " The Dialogues now offered to the Public. appeared origimilly in THE SUN NEWSPAPER ` 6 They are now republish -ell in ;In- sopt that the gootl sense which prevails throughow may induce the readers of this little Wolk to consider *yell the consequences tvhieh must tolloky from Ndoptiog the principles lately ende , ,Yonred to he instilled by those persons called 11.4dical Retor 'ter's, and to avoid them, as delusive and ruinous to thetnNelYes and their families:' Ilie importstit subjects discussed in these Dia logues, and the instructive lessons which they told tort!, to the middling and lower orders of People, render the IVotk entitled to no "te in this department of our Miscellaneous Jour / THE THI , ATRE.

The mixt tire of ap. tlanse and disapprobation wnich arteuded it, jrl - Mr. RUSSELL to address the audience in the *Okaying manner : . k " Ladies and Gentlemen—lt is he no means the wish of .nis Theatre to attempt lo force any piece upon s. , ut atten tion Which you are disposed to condemn.—Your gears site I '4l emsrince you, that it is our duty to Ms every thine io our *veer to secure the success of such pieces as may be pre 'tented to us.
