In this Work the Acted Drama is converted into the more po-

beauties of the British Stage more familiar, and even of extend-
ing that knowledge to circles where the Drama itself is forbidden.
With this view the Authoress has turned twenty of the Tragedies
and Comedies of the Dramatists above enumerated into at many
Tales, in which the colloquial and strait effect is preserved, and
the whole rendered obedient to the most relined ideas of delicacy,
and subservient to the best purposes of morality.

REWARD.

AMONG the very nu7erouseorrespondents of the last
week at JONATHA WARREN'S BLACKINtI MA-
NUFACTORV, he is sorry to find persons addressing him on the
subject of having his Name chalked on the Walls in and about the
:iletropolis. Ile, In order to maintain that character which his
establishment has hitherto done (that of ranking among the first
in the country), declares that he has never done, nor will he do,
any act, which, in his opinion, would much lower him in the esti-
mation of an enlightened public. The nuisance occasioned by
such vile practices, induces Jonathan Warren to offer &Reward to
any person who may detect others in writing his name on any Walls.
Jonathan Warren likewise cautions the publio against spurious
articles being sold under his name, and that his only Establishment
is at 30, 11 ungerford Stairs, Strand, where his genuine and only
original Blacking is sold wholesale ; and retail by every respect.
