OTHELLO.

Stnnoxs last night assumed the sable Hero
of thii admirable Drama. We do not think that he
was as -successful in the representation of this part
as h was in. Hamlet. His performance was through-
out creditable to his talents, but rather marked by an
exemption 'from striking faults, thin a display of
original beauties. His chief merit was in the
scerte in which, though stung to the soul by the
instigations of Zags, he yet fondly relies on the
honour of his wife, and outrageously demands a
proof of her guilt: In this scene his ditiotion was,
wellexpressed; and warmly applauded.
As a proof that he scorns the aid of traditional
tricks, he did not in this scene, as usual, push Zags
from one Side of the Stage to the other, but retired
in an agony of horror on the idea of the atrocity
of a false accusation in so tender a point.
Mr. STDDONS.II2& a method of dropping his
voice on. the close of a sentence, which gives it 'too
familiar an air for heroic or impassioned sentiment.
CooicE was very hoarse in lags, but sustained
the part with his usual skill.
• Mrs. GLOVER performed Desdernatur. , She is not
quite at home in the Tragic Drama. Mrs. LITCH-_
F I ELD made Emilia respedable, but rather t66.fine,
as she was better dressed than Desdemotia.

• Mr. KEMBhE, we understand; has withdrawn
himself entirely from Drury:Lane Theatre, in con:
sequence of a serious disagreement with Mr. SHE I.
DAN. Whatever may ;be the grounds of • dispute,
the Public will have to regret -the loss, to the Lon,
don Stage, of one of its principal ornaments:
Mr. KEMBLE goes .next week to the North.—
He will appear at Newcastle and Edinburgh:
It has been reported; that Mr. BANNISTER, Jun.
does not appear at Drury-Lane 'Theatre after the
‘;
present week. We state this merely as the report
.of the day,
.without pretending to vouch for its au-
thenticity: ‘•

Several of the AaorS, in former times, were
ambitious of. becoming Managers in Ireland, but
their speculations proved very unprofitable. Hot-
-MAN, and BANNISTER, if it be true that the latter,
also is.embarked in a similar projea, should take`
warning by:the fate of the elder SHERIDAN, Mos-
sor, BARRY, and WOODWARD. The last of these
uhforttmate projeaors heartily repented of his lost
tiMeand money) and on his return to this Country
ridiculed Ids Miscarriage in a humorous Prologue,
written and spoken by himself. .

The expulsion of the 7.eophiiandfropiiti from the
national places of worship in France, is one Of the
most agreeable subjetis of contemplation which •
France has for a long time 'afforded. The destruc,
tion, for such it may be considered, of the most
infamous knot of Deists that ever existed since the
Manichan -heretics) must give confidence to the
timid friends of the Catholic Church in France
and will doubtless be considered by the respeelable
body who composed the Episcopacy of that Country,
,as a very grateful 'reward, in the general benefit
that Religion derives from it; for the -personal
sacrifices they have made.
The situation of the Hans Towrks will now be,.

A young man named JEA* ,BAYLE, wishing to
obtain in marriage a girl possessed of 30,000 francs,
addressed himself to Some of the dispensers of good
fortune in his department, and
_promised them a
handsome recompence if they would gratify his
wishes. These persons, as it may be • believed,
readily Consented, but informed him he must retire
into a.cettain Cave by himself for the purpose of
consummating the magical operationß. The-Lover
was dire&ed to • take with him all his money in a
bag, to drink a certain quantity of a liquor contained
in a little phial,-which they gave him) to say in the
course of three days three prayers, .and at die end
of that time to light up a candle pierced through
with three pins. As soon as the pins became red,
the Lady with the 30,000 francs) was to yield.to
the flames .of his love: Lastly our Sorcerers re,
quested the lOan of his horse and chaise for a short
journey. Having given his consent to this request,
he descended into the-cave withhis money, his dis;-
pensers of good fortune, his light and his phial, He
drank the liquor, and began the performance' of the
other mysterious ceremonies: Scarcely were these
sharpers departed than he began to experience toe
most cruel torments, very different from chose of
Love: He was compelled to run immedimely in
search of a • Physician, who having adininistered.'a
counter poison, his pains beeame somew ha t mitigatedi
but it is extremely doubtful whether he will recover
the effeas of his superstitious credulity. On searc6
ing the 'cave there was found the phial, the candle
and the three pins, and several pieces'of lead instexi
of his money, the. loss of the whole of which,.adLied
to that :of his horse and 4ch4isc, and to the most
tormenting bodiry -pain's, give
