As we thiok it impogible for this play to maintain
its footing on the Rage, a very few remarks refpetting
it will glace. The language, where the author en-
deavtiors to imprels his audience with moral lent(.

is not claffically elegant ; the jokes put into the

boured. but coarfe, and the lunation' throughout
the piece are fitced and unnatural. The eitememstese

are intended to excite the Itrongelt interell, had laa
night little other effelt than to promote laughter.—
