When he passes away it must pass with him. The Rodin', hero has no other representative among us. The costume and the language, the majesty of i s sen . timent and the sternness of its passion, seem to have been by some prophetic impulse constructed for the actor on whom we are now looking for the last time. This • glees it a new interest ; it may be even the source of its, popularity among os, remote as we are from the austerity of its early time. Corialanus is a rolique of the original day of a frowning and rigid image of the patrician and the soldier. But there is no beauty in the shape moulded as it is in that severe ar mour, the first glance skews us the whole aspect of its haughty:strength and inflexible features, the single delight is centered in the perfectness of its transmission through so many hazards of space and time. It stands before us ,in the periou of the actor, the most complete and ttionoti listed monument of its rude day, and its charm lies in this tritituph over. the mouldering of tradition. -Coriolautts haroiguing the legions on the edge of battle, retorting the contumely of the, tribunes, or 'resting involved in his Toga beside his enemy's hearth, makes two thousand years pass away, fixes its alto; timely at Rome and'Corioli and in the midst, of the glades antenjoynietits of awe later time calls up the perils of republics and their warfare like things of matter and lite, present and true., blr. Kastat.a's represeotation of the lierp is probaSly the most perfect of his performances. Great powers are required to sustain.tke Play. It has but this stogie character its crowd of subs': diary matrowv and conspirators, poplar tis.;' turneri . and naked rabble fill up the breach. with their bodies, and perish when they have done that -office. The interest of - the Play, like the fortunes of Rome, seems to be fatally bound to the tortunes of its illustrious exile. The scenes in which the strongest applauie was excited on Saturday, were.those of the first inter view between Coriolantis and dufidius, and that final quarrel in which the Roman perishes its the midst of his consummated glory. The first is a noble example of the grand simplicity of its at dines style. Its study might work a reformation in the taste of our modern fabricators of the drama. IVe can imagine with what avidity the situation of the banisned hero would have been seized by our laborious magnifiers of nature, what profusion of picturing would have beets fling out upon his entreaty for an asylum, the humiliation of his stately spirit, the burning vindictiveness with %%hid' he already turned his glance upon Rome. It is here told without the circumlocution of a single useless phrase, all in plain and brief direct ness. .We quote from the edition used on the stages— " My name is Caius Iffarcifit; who MO done To thee particularly, and to all the Volscians; Great hurt and toiSchief; Oct eto witness may ,surname Corielanms. The cruelty end envy of the people, • Permitted by our dastard Nobles, have Whooped me out of Rome. Now• this extremity Bath brought me to thy hearth. eV • '• • .* * • ' • Speed thee straight And make my misery serve thy torn: so use it, That my revengeful services may prove As benefits to thee; for I will tight AgAiast my canker'd country with the spleen Of all the under fiends. lint if so be Thou dar'st not this, and that to prove more fortunes Thou art tir'd, risen, in a word ► I also son Longer to live most weary, and present My throat to thee.' '• The dialogue that follows is short, but close to nature ; the mutual commtinication of soldiers' minik , not accustomed to wander into feeble pro lixity. Their council is exchanged at once, their determination fixed, and announced in a single effort, and a few vigorous lines convey the whole nobleness of a scene, which an • interior genius wo uld have watched over, and cherished, and in cubated into five acts and a tragedy. The mastery of the actor was exhibited in its fulness in the con cluding scene. At this theatre there is some times taste, and at all times industry, in the equipment of the stage. The rise of the cur tain displayed a, pompous vista of helmets anti standards, military engines, and eurtaiii ed and crimson pavilions ; a glittering exhibi tion,given infinite aitonish which world have Ment to either Roman or Volscian.in the days of their battles, but which might have been found in its splendour in an army of the Lesser Asia,, mingling the luxury of . the Persian with the taste of the , Greek. The Argyraspides of CoventoGar den have no similitude to the "mien rof the iron shield and wollskim: mantle that .were yet to be the masters of the world; but the exhibition is stately, and may be forgiven. Mr. - Kensgueit 'emotion on seeing the train of matrons adv:sore was fi n ely marked flia first gaze was one of resolute defi ance : his attitude indicated the firm-aet purpose, not to give way to women's entreaties. The sight of his mother humbling hersellbefore biro "As if Olympus to a mole-bill sbould In supplication nod unbent the rigour of his. attitude, even before she spoke ; and the conquest was complete in the deep an d f on d tone o f his voice, when he fell On his. wife's neck with this delicious language " Oh, a kiss Long as my exile, sweet as my revenge ' Now by the jealous queen of Heaven, that mss I carried from thee dear I and my true lip Hatle virgined it e'er since." His taunts Ott dufidius, and his. lmentation over the restraints which withheld hint a front vin dicating his honour by his sword, were uttered with the spirit of a haughty heart, wrung at once by insult and obligation-- 'I Gods Were I mat' free, as on that day I was, When at Coriieli I tailed tby pride, . This had not been i" was followed with loud plituAlta. The altercation ..=~_ ...;rov% s fiercer. Coriu!anus io yokes .heaven to wit - 'pits.. for but. Cor. Hcaret thou, Mars ?" ' .dvf." Nome not the God, thou boy of tears."• Cor. " Measureless liar! Thou liactinadr my heart Too great for what contains it—Rey! Cut to pieces', Vulsciani ; nien and lids, Stain. all your edges on me ;••-.l7ey! .` If you have writ your annals true, 'tis there, That, like an eagle in a dive-cot, I ; Flutter'd your Volscians in Corioli t Atone I did it.—Boy I—But let us part, , Lest soy rash band should do a hasty deed." This was the triun►ph of the T►lay, ,The avild gesture of the Roman as he;roshed doivmupon ..4u . fidius, the whirl of his hand us .ha ihtitated the ,sudden scattering of the Volsciuna:befote his single sword, and the .fierce check of his: .velaole inB,med nature where he remembered thaservities of. his reviler, formed an incomparable display of mixed and powerful passion. His death was stantaneons. He took no time, no.linger out of life ; the spirit of :the hero broke away,at once, and when Atffidius.turnedio-praise aald mAtervover him, the.audience joined him, if not With -tears, with admiration deep and universal.' . . FliENCil ItECItATiONiS. Qn Saturday evening a select assemblage of company visited Freemasons' Hall, for the pur pose of hearing the. recitation of an historical dramatic poem in. French verse. The piece .re died, which is the production of M. Lavaavaa, Founder of the University of French Jorispro. deuce, is entitled Napoleon, ou La conjuration de Elbe et le Triomphe de la Legitimite, and contains a description of BUoNAPARTR's return from Elba' to Paris, hiss campaign of 1815, his ab dication and departure for St. Helena, and the arrival of. Louts XVIII. in France. M. LEM work is a sort of political pot•pouri. It consists of selections of Fiend) poetry, and of French'tianslations from the Ancients, put into the mouths of BuoNamara and the other con spietuins actors in the events intended to be re presented. The dialogue is divided into seveti parts, and each part into a certain number of in termedes. At the commencement of each inter mede the audience were informed who the interlo cutori were, as un boulloyalist, un fidele Anti du l'Orateur du Peuple, &c. In assorting the dialogue to the different characters, the attthur has had occasion to employ some of those passages Which seldom escape a marked notice from politi cal partisans in France. As for instance, BuoNA iARTB, on being reminded of his origin, is made tti'reply i.e premier / qui fat Roi fat an soldat !immix; glut Bien sert son.pays tea pat besoia tritieux.", These celebrated lines of ‘roLTAIRti, .which are said to produce su much sensation on their repe l titian in Paris, were heard at the Freemasons' Tavern without any sort of emotion. Neither this, nor any other of the'Striking political traits, excited either Approbation or disapprobation. The retitatiim lasted frnm seven until eleven o'clock. The piece was very effectively delivered by a young French perfarmer, named BERNARD. He Wa3 particularly energetic during the fourth Part, in which. Marobal NaY informs DAvousT of. the ,re stilt of the campaign of 1815, and gives him a de scription of the battle of Waterloo. FASHIONABLE ARRIVALS.
