general, as well also Messieurs les Strangers, that he has determined
upon a GREAT REDUCTION IN THE PRICES OF AD3INSION

of the time, and those who 11, nour us with their presence, the
lessee has arranged his scale of prices so that they may tally, as near

one who visits these shores must of mcessity be desirous
of visiting the National Theatre (so liberally patronised by the Go-
vernment, the Court, and the country) to witness the representation
of the immortal works of our great dramatist, the Lessee has, in
order to facilitate the wishes of all parties, deter ,ined upon the fol-
lowing scale of prices :-

A NOVEL. 0 0 D.
" The author, we are convinced. is young, otherwise 'we could
hardly see displayed such fresh and enthusiastic sympathy in be-
half or his heroes and heroines. He is a is riter of genius, inspired
by a high standard ct morality and religion, and by a laudable love
of Mr purest sort of fame. We gather this :rom the glowing lan-
ghAge in which he exprewees hols feelings, sentiments, and opinions
on the subjects lust mentioned. There are several chapters, in
which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
on matters that are the prima mobilia of the actions which cha-
racterise nature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though he
has marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Dili:eel% Mae-
nerses, and Smythes."-0l serve
i.Anwood' is no ordinary work ; it contains passages of exceed-
ing beauty, and Is written in pure Lnd forcible language, with great
good taste and power. It is one o the most interesting and en
gaging novels which the present season has produced. Of the cha-
ractsc of Amelia Ittr.S we have already spoken, and the extract we
have given above is the surest voucher of the truth of what we have
said. The other ladies wile play conspicuons parts In the tale are
Florence Howard, an intellectual beauty; Jessie Gordon, a wild and
impulsive genius, passionately ion I of music and poetry ; and Julia
Maitland, the noblest and best of them all."—Morning Post.
