THE THEATRE.—It must be not a' little grati-
fying to the lovers of the Drama, and particularly
of the works of our great Dramatic Bard, the
greatest that ever existed, to find that the new
Management of Covent-Garden, Theatre is pro-
ceeding to a vigorous revival of those plays
which will ever be considered as standard pro-
ductions of genius, and faithful representations of
humaq life and manners. Last night the play of
Julius Ccesar was 'represented_ ate this theatre.
Mr. C. KEMBLE was warmly greeted on his ap-
pearance as Anthony, by as full a house
as we ever -remember on an ordinary play
night. The part or Anthony requires conside-
rable powers, and Mr. K. ably pourtrayed the
ardour and pathos of friendship, the generous
warmth of the soldier, and the art and eloquence
of the designing orator, working to excite the
feelings of his auditors to avenge the death of, his
friend. The only novelties of the performance
were Mr. YOUNG in Brutus, and Mr. MACREADY
in 'Cassius. The declamation of the former was
correct and impressive, and, the passion of the
latter, particularly in the quarrel scene, was
powerful and striking. If these three distin-
guished Performers can. he frequently brought
together in characters so well calculated to dis-
play their respective excellencies, the Public-
would receive great pleasure, and the Theatre
would derive increasing prosperity.

We have received Gibraltar Papers to the 2(1

THE LONDON JOURNALS•

IXTRAGTS FROM THE DAILY MORNING TAPERS,
April 23, 1822.

[THE TIMES.]
.Official despatches of a very recent date were
received yesterday from Vienna. M. Tatischeff's
departure from that capital for Petersburgh has
been for the purpose of conveying to his Go-
vernment certain new propositions made by the
mediating Powers for the adjustment of the dif-
ferences with Turkey. The necessity of making
further concessions has been urged, but the na-
ture of the concessions required is not explained. I
it is a circumstance not unfavourable to peace,,
that Lord Strangford, our Ambassador at Con-
stantinople, is now represented to be the prin-
cipal mediator. The Divan, in a recent com-
munication with the Cabinet of Vienna, have
complained that Austria, i❑ her character of me-
diator, did not act with sufficient impartiality,
but appeared to lean towards Russia, or rather
to betray an identity of interest with that power.
It was in consequence suggested by the Cabinet
of Vienna, that an appeal should be allowed to
Lord Strangford, as the representative of the
British Government, and this was immediately
acquiesced in by the Divan, with whom his
Lordship, it is said, possesses great influence.
This arrangement appears favourable to the pre-
servation of peace ; and we learn by the letters
of yesterday from Petersburgh, that the Emperor
Alexander still leans to pacific counsels, and is
disposed, if necessary and rendered compatible
with his dignity, to make further concessions for
the purpose of avoiding war.

[MORNING CHRONICLE.]

The state of things in Ireland could not have
continued long but for the connection between
the two Islands. The misery of the lower or-
ders, when it came to a certain height, would
have brought it its own remedy. The fear of
such a result would have taught moderation
to the superior, and that would have .been
granted to fear which is seldom, if ever, granted
to generosity. But the Government of a people
far advanced in industry and civilization, and
therefore able to yield in abundance to it, the
elements of power, was also the Government of
Ireland. This connection inspired the oppressors
of the Irish with an indifference as to conse-
quences, and prevented them from paying the
penalty of their conduct. In no other country of
Europe has so complete an indifference to the
wants of the population been shewn as in Ireland.
If in other countries there is an established reli-
gion, the religion is at least that of the people.
The people have no where else been forced to pay
to a Church to which they do not belong, and
which has ever disdained even to put spiritual
food within their reach. The Roman Catholic
Church has been reproached with the absurdity of
praying in a foreign language; but the Church of
England commits here the double absurdity of
both praying and preaching in an unknown tongue.
The education of the people has been neglected.
Justice has never been administered to them in
such a way as to induce them to look to it for
protection.—A Government for the sake of the
Government, and a Church for the sake of the
Church ;--such is the spectacle here—the people
are out 'of the question. This system may be the
subject ,of frequent lamentation and invective ;
but till such a change in the character of the
English representation takes place, as shall ren-
der the business of governing something more
than a device for insuring the benefit of the few
at the expence of the many. Tnis system, we
are afraid, will never cease to afflict Ireland, and
continue a race of men as shrewd and ingenious
as they are ardent and warm-hearted, in the con-
dition of heWers of wood and drawers of water,
the Lazzaroni, as a German writer calls them,
of a people farther advanced in -civilization it, is
true, and more constant, because more phlegmatic,
but certainly less liberally endowed by nature
than themselves in many of the finest qualities o"
our species.

".BT. PETERSIIURGII, MARCH 26, (N.s.)—The
Exchange is a shade better; a considerable num-
ber of Russian Houses at Moscow have stopped
payment, and it is greatly feared that many more
will follow. This lamentable state of things has
been produced by ton heavy advances upon
foreign goods imported on consignment."
