THE THEATRES.

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

Mr. Marston, the author of the tragedy of The
Patrician's Daughter, has transferred his worship
from the shrine of Melpomene to that of Thalia.
Borough Pelitics is the title of a two-act comic
drama from Mr. Marston's pen, which was pro-
duced here on Saturday evening with complete
success. Nathan Thompson (M,:. Webster); a rich
farmer, and his vulgar wife (Mrs. Glover), have a
sentimental daughter, Fanny (Mrs. Yarnold), who is
engaged to marry Frank Neville (Mr. Howe), the
son of Dr. Neville (Mr. Tilbury), the village apothe-
cary. The vulgar Mrs. Thompson, however, has a
desperate quarrel with Mrs. Neville. The two hus-
bands, as in duty bound, take up the quarrel of
their wives. The match is broken off, and the families
are at variance. Dr. Neville is candidate for the
office of mayor ; and Florid (Mr. Buckstone),
the editor of the Bumbleton Denouncer, thinks this a
capital opportunity for wreaking his vengeance on the
Doctor, against whom he has a quarrel, and for airing his
own vocabulary of popular common places. He induces
Thompson to start in opposition to Neville. Poor Fanny,
however, is heartbroken. Her vulgar, but warm-hearted
mother, relents, and seeks a reconciliation with the Ne-
vines; old Thompson resigns the contest, Dr. Neville is
elected Mayor, and the young people are united. The
piece was strongly cast, and admirably acted throughout,
and its success was complete and triumphant.
