under Vie title of 1.", e AstuZie Fc.lfact, but with no
great success. The Music is pretty; aril ascribed
to Ftoaavawri, who composed pacts of it.
Dlt/ay.-Lat.:Li-L-1n itonieb and Juliet Miss dat-
MANI from Bath, made her first appearanCe as the
HerOine of the Play. This Lady is the sister of
the late Mrs. Youxd; and under the tuition of so
,able Hts ins`tructor us her brother-iti-law, it is not
to be Vintidered at that to. r aceornpli.liments for
the stage are- very considerable. Her figure is
slight, Vitt Well proporthined and elegant'; her
face hand Some and expressive ; her ~cite in
even speaking pleasing, but defective in the higher
tones. We cannot enter much into the merits of
her acting. It was of a very mixed character ;
sometimes excellent, and at other times falling
below the level even of the passable. We trust
that the indifferent portion may be ascribed to the
timidity and embarrassment of a debut, which
prevented the possessed feeling throughout, and
threw the performer on the aids of memory and
study.
The Second Centenary from the death of SHAX-
srEatta was further obierved, at this Theatre, by
the recitation of Gaitatcv.•s Ode to ZiHANSPEARE,
MI a Pageant of a number at the principal Cha-
raetcrs anti Scenes from our immortal Bard, in-
terSpersed with snug and allegorical, representa-
tions. Mrs. Baal-LEI: .and Mrs. DavisoN, iu ap-
propriate cars, and suiTomided by their reipective
votaries, enacted the Tragic and CoMic
View of the Cottage in which SIIAKSPEARE WaS
born, and a magnificent acene with which the
spectacle concluded, were the most deserving of
approbation. Some opposition was given to this
piece :it the commencement ; but the ayes carried
it by a great majority at the end.
OVENT•GARDEN.—Mr. IitiMBLE was restored
to the Stage in Coriolanus, his personation of
%stitch character is certainly one of the highest,
tributes that the talents of a Perlmutter can pay to
the genius of an Anchor. The remembrance of his,
womferful powers in delineating the proud,
Roman, and of the cause of his late absence,;
.teemed to augment the pleasure
.with which
his return was bailed, The whole audience testi-
fied this in the warmest -manner, and we never;
heard more hearty, and fervent, and itnit ersal
shouts, than those which greeted his entry, and.
for a long time prevented the business of the stage
from proceading. Mrs. Sinnos's was also recog,-
nized on coming into a box, and received a most
cheering testimony of the gratitdde with which
the Public remembered
_her transeentlant merits.
