This tragedy has beets produced on the London
boards under circumstances of rather a peculiar na-
ture. It was not offered, by the author, for repre-
sentation at any theatre. Through the medium of
the preset it first became known to the public—when
excellence induced the discriminating
p•roprirtar of the Bail► theatre to bring it out, and
its succeSs proved, to the fulles4detent, the cor-
rectors% of his judgment. The tragedy was very
frequently played to that citysissirl it went through
the ordeal of critical acumen most triumphantly.
Within a short time, Mr. MURRAY. of Alhemarle-
street, by whom it was published, has 5...1t1 three
cilium's of it—so that tote greasier part of those
who attended Covent-gar en theatre to witness its
representation, last night, came better prepared to
fortn a decided judgment OW its merits—a judg-
ment that will not fade sway with the passing hour
—than they are generally enabled to do.. The story
which Mr. MILMAN hale selected for the display of
hi■ dramatic genius, though it branches pot into
immy incidents, is more than ordinarily interesting.
It is a story that effects the heart throughout—
awakening all its tenderness and feeling at the pic-
ture of domestic happiness wills which it opens, and
exciting its best and dearest sympathies, when

be kept alive. requires iucident to be heaped on

haste rapidity—will not be pleased with this tra-
gedy. But, let Mr. Mt:MAN console himself in the
absence of their approbation, with the reflection, that
all those who admire a noble simplicity of plot —cha-
racters strongly drawn, and acting, from beginning
to end, with perfect consitency—imagery pure amid
natural—diction, chaste, not frigid—elegant, not
weak—animated. not turgid—let hitn rejoice in the
reflectioc, that all those contemplate Ins work us
an effort honourable to his groins, to his feelings,
arid, what he will probably consider u higher praise.
to his morals. He must be a man of fine feeling,
or lie could not have painted, exquisitely as lie has
dote, iti dilirrrut pasts of the tragedy, the delicate
plros+nreis of a home, where content and virtue
abide—he must be an accurate observer of the pas-
:ions, or he could not have traced them through
their mazes. with such unerring fidelity—he
must he a decidedly moral tam, or he would
not hare PO felicitously exemplified the maxim—
that tt Otte fake step is ne'er retrieved." In the
course of the tragedy we remarked a few phrases
that are strictly SlialtSPEAßlatil--and one or
two ideas struck us as being burrowed from the
same source. With these exceptions, we think the
at) le of composition, and the ideas which the dif-
ferent characters are made to utter, are perfectly
original. A cousiderabla portion of the play, as
originally written, is omitted in the representation.
This loss been done, not randy fur the purpose of
abridgment, but also with a view to the exclusion
of some passages, that appeared of too light a
nature to harmoisixe with the rest of the tragedy.
The character of Dareduln, en old fashion-monger,
Ins been wholly omitted—and that of Falsetto, a
courtier, has been considerably curtailed. Both
these characters are happily drawn—and their ob-
serratimis prove that the author has sin mean genius
for satire. In introducing them, he has only done
that which our most celebrated dramatists have
%Indian. d—and we do not think that taste was the
purest which removed them from their situations.
We hair already Witted, that the incidents are not
tionteriiii•. But, though they be not "‘ as !dewy
us bijeklwrtivs." there is not, by any means, a
cesi+urattle paucity of them. Those that do occur,
are produced without violence to the 1' rstanding

excite our pity, and sometimes awaken Irtlr admi-
ration. The characters of Fazio and Bianca are

dreadful. Every feeling is swallowed tip in the
desire of revenge. Dui, revenge once obtained,
contrition, self-reproach, and, flintily, depair, assail
the victim—and soon her asylum is—the grave.
The impression made. by Miss O'NEILL it. the
character of Bianca, it me quite impossible to tie-
scrilw. A tumult of passion shook every breast,
while she was engaged in her principal scenes.
e:squisite delicacy ollich marked her love of
Fazio, iu the opening of the play—a loves that
trembled on the rosy lip, and glanced softly from
the mild blue-eye—was strikingly contrasted with
the more violent expression of affection, which
follows Fazio's interview with Aldabella. The
storm of grief and indignation which Piero's
declaration, that his master had feasted all night at
Aldubella's mansion. could nut be surpassed for
truth and nature. It was now terrifically grand—
full of phrenetic wildness—and now it subsided
into the soft and tender complaining, of an affec-
tionate heart. The scene in the Council Chamber
was admirable. Nor can that with Aldubella—
the prison-seesirs with Fazio, where the fatal to.
morrow is ever present to her recollection—or her
dying scene—be spoken of in terms leas fervid.
The applause which her performance elicited. was
truly enthusiastic. Mr. CHARLES KEMBLE sup-
ported the character of Fazio to the perfect
satisfacti ~,, of the audience. His energy in the
earlier, and his tenderness in the hitter scenes,
were alike marked by judgment and genius.—
Nothiug was overstrained. Ili' energy was not
hoisterour—his tenderness wits not mawkish. His
defence of Aldulrella. when Bianca sarcastically
alludes to her, was full of noble intimation. 'file
fallowing highly poetical description of the fair
seducer was delivered by this accomplished actor
with inimitable grace:—
The gnieions ! the melodious! Oh, the words

LIMERICK, JAN. 30.
BRUTAL OUTRAGE AND MURDER.

The house of Mr. Christopher Spading, a pub-
lican at Patrick's Well, a village within five miles
of this city, was attacked by about forty or fifty
men, at about half-past eleven o'clock, on Monday
night last. They first fired into the house, then
demanded to have the schoolmaster, who lodged
therein, and what arms were in the house sent out
to them, which was refused ; then Mr. S. attempted
to tire but the piece missed; they then forced in
by the window, and five of them continued beat-
ing Mr. S. *considerable time ; his daughter, about
18 years old, knocked down one of them with a
blow of a candlestick, when he lay as if dead ; she
then threw him out of the window. One of the
fellows presented a gun at Mr. S. which the daugh-
ter caught, and forced off the barrel, which saved
his life ut the time ; then a mats of Mr. Ross's fired
and killed one of them, whom they took away ; they
then tired into a room and killed a young man named
Samuel Cross', an inhabitant of this city, who came
Ruts► Crootn, and lodged for that night at Mr. S.'s.,
not wishing to proceed to Limerick by night. After
rhepatching Cross, they said that they now had satis-
faction for the number his brother hanged, supposing
him to be Mr. Mayne, the Preacher, brother to Judge
Mayne. They took a son of Mr. Sperling's, 14 years
old, out on the road, and was going to shoot him,
when he cried to them not to kill hien,some of theta
had compassion on him, and let him go—they like-
wise wanted to kill the child in the cradle. Mr.S.'s
daughters leaped out of a window two stories high.
and 'lived themselves by getting into Mr. Rose's
slitubberry, where they lay all night on their face
and haudis till morning, they were not much hurt
—one gut a blow of a brick awl was hurt in the leg.
Mr. S. seeing resistance useless, went to hide, when
they got him and beat I severely, leaving him
for dead—however, he is since better. They de-
stroyed and broke every thing in the house, drank
a quantity of liquor. and took what money they
could get—they likewise took young Cross's
pocket-book mid what was in it.

On Wedne•day night the beautiful and valuable
barge belonging to the Grocers' Company was
rn-
tircly divested by some rubbers of the plate glass.

safety under the care of Mr. ROBERTS, a respectable
boat-builder, and was by him secured in a barge-
house near Staitgate Stairs, Lambeth.

INJUNCTION.
COLE V. GALPIN.
Sr SAMUEL ROMILIX, of the Plaintiff, moved
for an injunetion to restrain the Defendant ;risen lisp oeing
of any part of the trade belonging to the partnership of Ilse
Plaintiff and Defendant, they 'seine stationers, iu Fleet-
street; or for negociating bills, purporting In be the ac.
a-epistlers of the partners, and from collecinig the debts, nr
otherwise interfering in the' business of the partiter,•hip.—
The eireinnstances of the case were, that Cole, senior, and
Cole, junior, entered into an agreement of partnership with
the Defendant, as stationers, iu March, 1813, which was to
continue for 21 years, but the deed of partio ship 'lever was
esteemed ; it continued until January, 1815, a Iwo it was
dissolved by mutual consent, soil a new partiicr,liip entered
into between Cole, senior, the present Plaintiff, and the
Defendant, the Plaintiff to he entitled to two-thirds of the
profits, and the Defendant to one. The Rational, from age
and ill health, was obliged to reside in the country, and He
management of the business, devoted on the Dr fendant, who
the Plaintiff had the greatest confidence in, which was not
shaken until he received a letter from two gentlemen of the
names of.loseph and Hughes, stating that a great number of
the acceptances of the urns were in circielati tttt and that
they held four of them to the 'twined of 1,0001. for which
they had given woollen clothes, and part cash. The Plain-
tiff,- on this, employed a gentleman of the name of Browue,
to inquire into the circumstance, and he ascertained that
there were similar bills to the amount of 7,0001. afloat, and
that a Mr. Maberly held one for 8501. for which be haJ
given carriages, and part cash ; and Mr. Harvey, a soli-
citor, had another for 5001. which be bad got cashed at the
Plaintiff's bankers. All those bills appeared to be drawn by
a person of the name of.latues Taylor, sad accepted by the
Defendant in the names of the firm. That in Jemmy last,
the Plaiutiffapplied to the Defendant by his agent fora list of
the acceptances that wore out in the name of the firm, and also
to be informed who ur what Mr. J. Taylor, the drawer of the
bills,was; but be refused to give any information on the 'gib.
ject. Defendant bad filed au affidavit in answer, in which lie
admit. that the bills were not negotiated on the partnership
account, bat that they were for the purpose of aecommods.
lion ; at the same time be charged the Pluititiff wills not haw.
inn paid into the comers' the whole of the sum of 6,000/.
which he promised, to enlarge the capital of the concern.
Wbat this had to du with the question before his Lordship, Ise
(the Learned Counsel) was at a loss to know. The Defendant
also stated in his affidavit, That be would be able to take up
the acceptances when they because due. These, he cols-
leaded, were nut the transactions of a moo of business, but
such as an improvident heir might have entered into, by
getting bills discounted, and taking goods fur them, which
Ise would be obliged to sell for half their value. Another
affidavit had been filed by the Plaintiff, alleging that other
bills, of a similar stature, bad come to Isis knowledge, tom
for 1,400!. and another for sew., and that he had reerived a
letter from a Mr. Crowther, that be heist one for sum, for
which he had given needles, A Mr. Clutterbuck bad also
discounted one for 460 f., and was offered a second, cm which
he called on the Defendant. and inquired if it was the ac-
ceptance of the firm, and if the Plaintiff was a partner. He
said the acceptance was correct, aud the Plaintiff was a
partner, nod lived at Petersfield, in the county of HAWN 21111
was worth 120,0001. The Learned Counsel Shen coot, oiled,
if there ever was a case where the Court would interfere to
present one partner front Foisting another, this was that case.
He, therefore, had no doubt but his Lordship would grant
the injunction as prayed fur.
Mr. HART, Counsel for the Defendant, said that the ques-
tion was nut whether the Court would restrain the De-
fendant from ruining the Plaintiff, but whether his Lord-
ship would, by his injunction, ruin the trade which was the
livelihood of the Defendant for, if he did, it would be Isis
destrnetion. His Learned Friend (Sir Samuel) had assumed
that those were accommodation bills, oue word of which was
not admitted by the Defeorlaut, but be says they were isasued
for the benefit of the trade.

The LORD CRANCLLGOR How can yon apply car-
riages, woollen good., and needles, received fur them to be
beneficial to the trade?"

Mr. HART said, he could only say he wan taken by sur-
prise, and was not able to answer: hut he was sure the De-
fendant could, if he was only allowed time to file his mai-
davit• for that purpose. But to take it hypothetically, he
supposed that the pressure of the trade was such, that the
profits would allow money to he raistd at meat expense,
and this might have been caused by the Plaintiff not having
produced the capital he promised. Under those circum-
stances, perhaps, his Lordship would think it sufiicient
to issue his itijuaction to restrain the Defendant from se-
ceptingbills, except for the Louts fide use of the partorrship.
The Loan CIIANCIELLoR—" That will not du; he has
already accepted hills for the partwiship, awl etccit.cti car-
riages, needles, dm. in lieu of thrni."

Mr. lIART-" I can only submit that your Lordship will
mot make smelt an order au will ruin die trade; but that you
will ihink uue that will bear the Plaintiff liaruilcbs, will be
mot Ifirirnt."

Mr. DUCKWORTH folio% rd.

The lotto Citauccut.ou—,. if you will undertake, Mr.
Hart, to do tiolleinot between this and Saturday, mid make
an affidavit to answer those of the Plaintiff, the
may statist until then. But looking at the ease as it now
appears, .1 cannot avoid saying it is one of the moral I ever
heard." .

Mr. The Defeneant cannot object to give such
an undertaking." _ _

The LORD iltArscamost--" Let the Defendant he re

rept PO far as is necessary to liefVeC/0011 customers. I\l il-
