-were'clkored.

T!le:Ballet: passed,. off t_c)ler,t,bl,. well, cut Sider_
the absence of PAitisoT and Madame DES

ble skill, and by that 'n..ans, tilriuSlt inuc7, of.,the
dance altogether was necessarily omitted, the 'tenor

711 E THE.I7IZE.

Covent Garden.

THn Comedy of The Wheel of Fortune, was re-
presented for the first time, on Saturday last, at
this Theatre.

KEMBLE represented the part of Penruddock,
which is one of the very best efforts of his theatrical
skill, with charatieristic feeling and spirit. _ The
different shades" of resentment, tleen,
and misanthropic severity were all very judiciously
touched and blended in .the general merit of his
performance.

Mum) ritc made Go.vi,rn.;.i Tempest a prominent
-figure. in the piece.

CHARLES KEMBLE, in Captain 1F64-oille;-dis.
played all the enthusiasm of young Soldier, mingled
with filial affettion, and the tenderness of the

Lover.

. .
Miss BRUNTON shewcd striking syMptoms of im.
provement in Emily Tempest. She was playful,
spirited, .jand tender.

ST. LEGEI: acquitted herself very well,.in
Mr.t. Ircodville ; and here our panegyric should end,
as the rest of the charade's were but indifferently
sustained.

The new Farce of The Paragraph was repeated,
with great success, and is fully established in pub-
lic fit roux-.

IVIU MIEN and FA WC ETT exerted themselves with
powerful cffe(l.

BRAHMA and STORACE also are strong props.
The Piece, however, should be shortened, and
the three travelling Gentlemen may very properly
he dismissed, as they
,only encumber. the scenes in
which they appear... • . ..
' The House was.erowded almost from the begin.
ning of the Play.' . .
