DRAMA

go so for her. The audience, delighted as they had been
with the previous pottioas of the performance, were electri-
fied. They rise from their seats, and called the groat amen
twice before the curtain. It wee Madame Ristori's greatest
triumph.
It will be seen from what bee been said that the play of
Pio del Miami O no very greet effort of dramatic art.
Rinaldo, who might have established tome claims to oar
slop .toy had he been, like Othello, noble, confiding, and
truthful, diegasts us at the very commeccemest, by his
coafession that he uvula his wile, for so other reason than
that is his wild you h he hod made espsrience of the (she-
ens of women. The louses' of the suspicion is an
outrige &palest Pia, which even Ilge te,ents. HI
aikido's vile jealousy is only equal to his absurd
stupidity. He delivers himself blindly into the hands
of Up for no reason whatever, is duped by the
shall° eat coatrivance ever used by a dramatist, and ends
by becoming a pitiless tpaat and a contemned* sneak.
The utter west of the dramatic sense is Marmot> is shown
by his neglecting to bring Up at the stage at the time of
his spay of remorse. Instead of showing this agony, we
are gold of it In the most prosaic language, and
he is brought In for a moment at the ead of
t►e prise simply to let as know that he has not
scooped the punishment of ►is alms,. The way la
which Up sets about his work of treachery is that of a rash
►uugler, in•teed of an artful traitor. The character, how-
ever, of Pia redeems the play. Moreno, the author, hes
written mph finer dramas than this. Amongst the finest
we say reckon as Farniolia Fescari, and
Ansoldo do Brescia. The author was roomed
of great talent but not nub genius. He lived bat for
liter►ture. Although so precocious that he took deadeye'
of Doetor of Laws at the Uoiversity of Tarim in 1818, when
he wee only 18 yam of age, he could net I. prevailed upon
to adopt the law as a profs/mime. He gave himself up ex-
clusively to literature at the op of 21, sal was oily
diverted from this pursuit in the you 1848, when he ac-
cepted a government situ►tion at Savona, is order to pro-
vide for his (early. He only held it for a few month.,
and died in the year that be had accepted it. His peodurtions
a•e very numerous. Only a portion of what he has written
is published. The works remaining in manuscript are
being prs pared for publicatioe.
