THEATRES.

HA YMARKET.

Last night The Romantic Widow, a new comedy in two
acts, was produced at this theatre, and crowned with de-
served success. Notwithstanding the absurdity of intro-
ducing a ruined gambler as a man of honour, we must do
the author the justice to declare that the character of his
hero, St. Croix, is very interesting, and likely to become a
favourite. A French emigrant adventurer, reduced to live
by his wits;with ingennity sufficient to succeed as a knave,
yet preferring the paths of humble, honest industry, under
the strongest temptations that love and wealth can offer to
the contrary, and who is, after all, not ashamed of his ho-
nest exertions (although every one around him certainly
is)—affords something dramatically refreshing to the con-
templation, and very far superior in conception, (and what
may perhaps with justice be termed originality), to some
scores of petite comedies of which we have witnessed the
seasonable birth and death for many a year. The perform-
ance of Mr. Ranger in his half-dozen characters was ad-
mirable throughout, but we think a portion of the kitchen
and the opening dialogues might without injury be re-
trenched. His characteristic broken-French-announcement
of the piece for continuous representation was the most
finished touch of the whole. One young lady near us ex-
claimed in her admiration, " Well, considering he is a
Frenchman, he is uncommonly clever ! "
