THE THEATRE.

The Tragedy of Venice Preserv'd was represent-
ed last night at Covent-garden Theatre before an
audience that completely filled the house. Mr.
'CONWAY appeared in the character of Jalfler, a
character that requires great experience and ma-
tured. judgment. Mr. COIWAY deserves the
praise of attention and assiduity, but we saw no
proof of excellence throughout. -He was most
successful in representing to Pierre the conduct of
Renault towards helvidera, but: the' Story- itself is
of so disgusting a nature that it ought to be omit-
ted entirely, or to be quickly passed over, particu-
larly as it has been previonslyyelated by ,Belvidera,
and in an unexceptionable manner. Mrs. M`Gia-
BON entered into the part of Relvident with great
feeling, and performed it with. energy and judg-
ment.—Mr. YOUNG'S Pierre was admirable—His
discrimination and loice formed a fine Contrast to
what approached nearer to rant in others.
The Play was followed by u new Melo-Dram,
entitled The Miller and his Alen. It is a compound
of incidents derived from The Iron Chest, The Cos-
at of 4ndaiusia, and Raymond.and.Aghei but.so
well put together, that a strong interest is excited.
The novel part of this plece!consistt in making u
Captain of Robbers assume, :in :the neighbour-
hood of their cave,, the harmless character of
Miller, while some, of the" subordinate -'ban-
difti appear to Se simple labourers in his ser-
vice: :There is the usual expedivit of a bun+
gry servant and his miiter, lost iii the wood—a
lover, his rival, and an interesting young woman. ,
But the whole, as we have said, is ingeniously
massed, and strongly arrests the feelings, The
Scenery is excellent (principally by that able
Artist GarsVO, and the mechanism of .the Mill,
which Is destroyed by an explosion, is skilfully
constructed. and managed with ad in irable. efiet.—
The Piece was Written by Mr. Pococx, ond,it is
Supported by .sowe gOod music. fruai Mr. Btsno!.
LiNtON, PARLEY, ABSOTT, and Miss '.lloo.rit;
Were powerful.styporters of the Piece.
