" All the Boston Papers with which we have been
favoured, and the Papers which they quote. are of
the most Anti-British cha►acter. tVar, past and
future, with Britain, is quite a familiar subject:
nay, a perfect atrauger might think us actually at
war at this moment. H the most deadly war sub-'
slated, we could scarcely expect more decided at-
tempts at exciting stational odium. One article
entitled, ' Britich Barbarity.' is fontided upon
a passage in the London Alarming (bromide. and
professes to prove the English people infamous for
cold-hluoded cruelty. It concludes thus :--• Their
laws asid their manners pronounce them lettered
barbarians.' %%That a dutiful progeny has &UM,*

" A long philipic, under the guise of a literary
review, concludes with an emphatic contrition,

TIfEATRES.

DEURV-11.ANE..
The tragedy of Richard the Third was per-
formed last night at this theatre, at the Ppecial
desire of the Duke and Duchess of KENT, and
the Duke of Sussex. Their Royal Highnesses
on their entri were greeted with the loyal and po-
pular air of God Nate the King. which appeared
to have excited in the breast or the audience more
than usual emotion. Mr. KEAN displayed his
accustomed excellence in the character of the
Doke of Gloneester ; and the other parts were sit*.
tattled In a very efficient wainter.—The house lore-
looted a full attendances

COVENT-GARDEN.

Mr. MACREADY undertook, for the first time,
last night. the character of Cori°lanai, in tlizt
tragedy of that name. This part was revived by
Mr. KEMBLE. M►. NIACREADY has not the same
natural advantage of Raman feature ; but in
voice. person, and reline, he iv well qualified to
personate the Roman hero with full effect. Public
expectation, however highly raised by his represen-
tation of Richard the 'third, was not disappointed
by his performance of last night. lie conceived the
character ttulyi and performed it with great force
and feeling. lie was accompanied with rapturous
applause; an audience more enthusia•tic in the
expression of its admiration has been seldom seen ;
the waving of hats and handkerchiefs, and shouts
of acclamation, were general throughout the house.
—On the tall of the curtain, Mr. EGERTON came
forward to announce the play for this slight, but he
could not obtain a hearing, and Mr. MACREADT,
yielding to the call of the Ileum. was at length
obliged to chew himself to the audience. to receive
the testimony of their applause, and announce the
future repetition of the piece.
