DRURY LANE THEATRE.

The usual Christmas entertainments of George Porn-
well, and a new Puntomine, wereproduced at this thcwre
on Saturday week. The nuntorritne was railed "liar.
'clothe and (be Dandy Cob. or 18 1 8,“ and the title was
at least attractive ; but the author of the piece t.ceruell
ignorantly to have eon( dyed that this was every
thiug, and that the ludicrous name and grotesque
dress of a dandy were a sufficient passport to two
hours of insipid bustling and pointless trick. That
strange nondescript, lately detected in our streets,
and hunted down (we are harpy to sad-) by pub-
lie ridicule and popular odium, WAS presented, not
like a ‘ivatitnis animal in a menagerie, the ludicrous
or malignant qualities of Whose nature might be shrivel
tip fur the amusement and Korn of the spectat,rs, but
like a stuffed carcass tumbled about by
means, and affording entertainmcot only from its eh-
suid txternid apiscuranie, or Elntastienl costume. It

rightly) are dressing up dandy characters, according to

take place, the usual St. Vitus' dance atnong the
regular characters of the piece is exhibited, and they
all set out on their respective employments. Not
one of the tricks that subsequently takes place could
draw a smile from a holiday sellout boy, (Amp' in the
single assistance of a dandy butcher, who puts a piece
of mutton in his neckcloth for a stiti;ier. We should be
sorry.to express this opinion of a of entertaituniatt
which is usaally got up at u considerable expence to the
establishment ; but in this ease we are relieved by a
consideration that no great loss has been incurred, and
that the scenery was as meagre as the tricks were gross
and spiritless. We mean by this to convey no censure
of the performers, who performed the stupid things they
had to do as well as could have becn expected. Miss
Tree (as Colfunbine,) played a solo on the flageolet with
great taste and execution, in which she was encore:in
but neither her exertions, nor that of her coadjutors,
could ward off the public disapprobation of the piece as
a whole. The disapprobation began early to maniticst
itself, and the crisis was hastened Ly a person in ode of
the dress boxes, who, whether he acted Hadelptin or
not—is Nether he meant to protect the audience against
the stage, or the stage against the audience—succeeded
in overpowering, by the clamours to which he gave
o,c3sion, ill the efforts of the performers to sustain any
thing like public interest. By the time the curtain was
dropped all was tumult and " wild linter,' and neither
the efforts of the Clown (Mr. Bradbury), who came
forward to announce the piece flit a subsequent night,
nor his ridiculous appeal to two children, whom he
bore in his al ins, could prevail upon the audience to
allow him a hearing. By-the-bye, we may mention
that this Clown, before he is again allowed to exhibit
his antics, should be reap died to make an apology to
the public foot his perse.-ering resistance to their will,
and the impertinent manner in which he testified his
dissatisfaction at their decision.

On Monday night the tragedy of finG4/a w.ts per-
formed at this Theatre for the first time these three
years. The part of the heroine of the piece was as-
signed to Mrs. W. West. The galleries and pit were
full at the rising of the curtain, but the confusion of
Babel seemed to'have pervaded the former. The holi-
day gods appeared to have visited the Theatre, not for
the purpose of listening, but with a predetermination
neither to hear themselves, nor to suffer others to do so.
From the commencement of the tragedy to the Ailing of
the curtain, the c:mfusion of sounds was unremitting;
scarcely a sentence uttered 'to the stage was audible to
the audience. The whole performance was dumb show.
Under these circumstances, it is not to be expected we
can speak of the periltrmance. As fa as we may pre-
sume to judge, front the few sentences which we could
at intervals partially hear, Mrs. West acquitted herself
of the tal assigned to her, under all these disadvan-
tages, in a manner which added to her credit as an ac-
tress, and would, but for the circumstances to which
we have alluded, have proved highly gratifying to the
audience Mr. 11. liemble played Biron, but was even
more indistinct than Mrs. Wesi.

The Tragedy was Mowed by the. new Pantomime,
the opposition to which commenced with the rising of
the curtain. Major M`Naughten, the Gentleman
who addressed the audience on Saturday night, and
against whom, it is said, r. Bradbury hurled defiance
by shaking his fist at him, again declared his opposi-
tion to the piece ; but his voice was drowned by the
applause of the pit and galleries —the' Major soon after
quitted the Theatre, obser% ing, he would leave the
piece in the bands of the public. Mr. Bradbury, on his
appearance, was called on for en -apology, but did not
notice the call, and sevend pugilistic eonteststook place
between his friends and opponents. It is but justice to
him to him to say that he exerted himself' is a most as-
tonishing manner to deserve applause. The uproar and
confusion between the contending parties became so
great, that Miss Tree, in consevence of smitten indis-
position, arising from alarm, in the midst of her dance
Wilted, and fell lifeless into the anus of those on the
stage at the time, who fintanately caught her. She
tint appear for several scenes afterwards; ;old, when ,
she did again come thrward, it was evident she was.
scarcely able to support herself. When the curtain
dropped, which it did amidst a din of approbation and
opposition, there was a loud call for the Maxager.—
Mier wine time had elapsed, Mr. S. Kemble came
fbrward, and addressed the audience to the following
effect :—" Gentlemen, I regret extremely that, being
absent from the Theatre 1 was nut able to attend your
first call. What arc now your commends with me?"—
( From the Boxes, "V itialraw the piece ; it is a shame
and ill:grace to the ::tags."—From the Pit, " No, no,
it is only the Dandies w ho disapprove of it, and not an
Engli..h I üblic !")—Mr. Ktanbie reAnued: " Gentle-
meat, it is the wish of the Proprietors coed the .itanagers
of this Hollse, toylease. They have no.object but your
pleiuure and satisfaction; the piece b;:a Lava adverthaal

from the Boxes, " no, witialtaw it now "—frm
the Pit, " Try it again ; never mind the Dandies r')
—" Ladies and Gentiemen, could I ascertain what OM
yoar sviAses, they would be imataliately complied wi:h.
I understand Mr. Bradbury has untOrtitnatily given
you offence; is it your wi.h he should come f4irward
he is most ready to do so if you desire ir.—(Cries of
" Yes, yes. Let him come forward and apologise.")—
Mr. Kemble bowed and retired, and soon utter Mr.
Bradbury appeared. The noise was :13W tremendous.
After a time, however, he obtained a hearing, and ad-
dressed the audience as follows:—" Gentlemen, I mi.
derstund I have been so unfortunate as to incur your
displeasure. May I ask in what:" Nn answer.—
" Bravo, Bradbury," from the Pit, and an appeal to
the Dandies to say what he had done. A Gentleman
from• the boxes said, " Rmn-mber Saturday
Mr. Bradbury resumed, "Gentlemen, I declare solemn-
ly, I would not willingly offend any individual, and
inn ignorant what I have done." T4e same Gentlemen
from the boxes directly observed, " The Gmstlenten
cc' mm you insulted has quitted the Theatre." Mr.
Bridbury rzsomel -" If I insulted that Gen:lernin,
he can defend himself; and I am ready to meet him, or
arty man liviug.."—llere the uproar beeann: so great,
that he could obtain no further hearing, and a quantity
of oraage being thrown at him, he bowed and re-
tired. The cry for the Manager was resumed ;
Mr Kemble did not appear, and the Theatre was soon
after cleared.

The new Pantomime was again performed at this
Theatre on Tuesday night ; but the p-thlic were not
yet satisfied that they ought to be pleased with it, and
its repetition, in opposition to their will, hail produced
no change in their epinion of its defects. During
the greater part of the performance, the tumult of
mixed applause and disapprobation was greater than on
the previous night ; and at the end the opposition was
more decided. The Highland Chieftain, or Major, (as
he wits called,) was at his post as the opponent of the
Clown, and to his motions the • enemiessif the Panto-
mime looked as the signal of the decisive conflict. The
Manager was luutlly called for, but Mr Bradbury (the
clown.) made his appearance betbre him, with something
that seemed like a liorsewhip—tor whom intended
(unless fiir the Chieftain) we cannot. tell. After a pro-
fusion of bows, and a genuflection with which he sap-
plicsted a hearing, he was o liged to retire among a
storm of hisses, without being able to utter u syllable.
The Manager was again loudly called for, but did not
arrive till upwards of a quarter of an hour. During
this interval several orators started in different parts of
the house as candidates fin. public or playhouse favour.
The Chieftain maiwaineil his post, and employed verr
vehement oratorical gestures, which we believe were
his only figures of speech : lie was answered by a fe-
male orator from the lower gallery, whose hands ap-
peared as eloquently active to all parts of the house, as
her tongue no itoubt did to those who were near her.—
( She at first poured a volley of no very savoury expres-
sions upon him, masked by a large straw bonnet ; but
afterwards, disdaining to take ulYantage of this cover,
she threw it aside, and encountered her antagonist
without any defensive armour. After a great deal of
contusion and tumult, Mr. Kemble at last came oft
the stage, and after beseeching a hearing, which he
did not obtain, announced, us Ise understood, that tlie
Pantomime should he withdrawn. The Chieftain gave
the signal of triumph by waving his hat, and the ati-
dirtiee soon dispersed.
This theatre, sa fertile in nnvelties, added on Thurs-
day night another to the long list of its new pieces.
The title, and the poem from which it was taken, gave
promise of a treat to the lovers of nteloeframe. • The
story upon which it was funneled, is Walter Scott's
Morrikon. The incidents in that zioent are in one •
opinion sudkient to :Ilford full scope to the contriver of
a melo-dramatis: romance. The whole of the incidents
in last night's drama are those which may be found-hi •
that poem ; but some of the most interesting are oath,
ted, and notitiog new is substituted. In fact, the an-
ther (or, as we may better call him, the transposer,
Mr. Stephen K•enble, MY we understand) has taken it
firr granted tim‘ every one of his auditors was well am.
quainted with the ',Wry of amnion, and he accordingly
threw a few s;'its leading incidents tvether, without,
we must say, any other connection than that whi :t
their memory might supply. The piece opens sviCla
the trial of Constance (Mrs. Orger), fin- running aw.lyi •
frin her epopellt, anti a conse.vent broach sot Tier .
gions vow. She is. condeinaed by the Pcior and his
assistant judges, but.by u lucky interference is relieve',

is just time enough to receive his last breath, and an
aranwance Fr,an this outline it will be
az-en, that there 'were incidents sufficient in the story
to have worked up a tolerable melo-dramatic romance:
but for want of skilful assuagement, the author hes
railed in exciting much interest. Whotever of merit
existed in the piece was due to the perfUrtners,
who, to do them justice, made the best of their parts.
Mr. H. Ketuble did his best in ilkrinion. though we
cookss the taste of the managers had been better evinc-
ed in assigning that character to Mr. H. Johnston, '
whose talents were thrown away in the part of the
Host. Johnston, however, made the most of that cha-
racter. by his genuine Scottish dialect, anti that humour
which he always throws into the gay and active High-
lander. Mr. Hamblin was respectable as De Wilton.
()sherry, as the friar, gave the few sentences allotted
to him in his usual style of good humour; anti Penlcy,
as the Seothsh King, made the most of the author's con-
acptinn of that character. Mrs. West and Mrs. Orger,
a: flora and Constance, were in their best style; mid
Miss Cubbit sang a pretty air as Lady Heron (we be-
here); but why she did sing, or why she appeared at
all (we speak of the character only), noixaly knew. ft
is but justice to add, that the whole went off without
opposition, and its repetition was received with ap-
plause.

The piece was succeedid by the farce of "Modern
Ant;times.' As SOCII as the curtain was raised, the en,
ct" the Pantomime" was set up by some silly Dandies
in the ph, and so much tumult ensued in the attempt
to outcry it, by " Go on, go on," that fin- some time the
performers could not !a, beard. At length Mr. 8,
Ke•mble cattle forward and said, that in obeili. nee to the
public opinion the late pantomime was withdrawn ; but
as the managers were anxious to please by the produc-
tion of a pantomime, they had endeavoured to get up
one which would be ready in a few days. This expla-
nation iati,fied the audience, and the farce was suffer-
ed to proceed.

Letters from Amsterdam state, that the house of
Beerenbrook, the establishment which has attracted so
much notice from the extent of its speculations in the
Government securities of France, is at length declared
in a state of insolvency. The ruin of this commercial
house, which, though not perhaps of the first order,
maintained a very high rank at Amsterdam, is chiefly
to be ascribed to those speculations, of the magnitude of
which some idea may be formed by stating, that M.
Beerenbrook at one deriod held 4,000,000 of rentes,
forming a capital of 80,000,000 of francs ; and that
every full of one per cent. that took place in the funds,
constituted a difference of more than 40,0001. sterling.
M. Beerenbrook has not retained any stock in his own
name for some weeks past; but the loss caused by the
decline of the rentes during the present month, falls on
those exchange brokers who became his securities ut the
last liquidation, and will ofeoto se be enocmous.
The fidlowing scene has occurred in Cork:—The
county were sumnuared to address the Regent on the
demise of the Queen. Lord Carboy,. moved the a&
dress; Mr. Boyle proposed a nominal amendment.-6
P.:.:•ties were strongly divided, and the Sheriff obliged
to adieurn. Lord Carbery Jew addressed an indignant
t.tsele to the county.
Lord Ca lereagh was so much indisposed with the
gout on :*:onday, that it was neceasary to lift hint in
told out of his bed ; naked he wits scarcely able to move
at all without assistance.
The materials left by the late Sir Samuel !battik,
tor his intended work on the Criminal Law, are said to
embrace the subject in every point of view. The papers
are very voluminous, and are now arranging limier the
friendly inspection of Mr.Brovgl'aut mid. Mr. 111;-
