WEYMOUTH, APRIL 24.

Sailed the Britomart packet, Captain GOODALL,
with Mail and passengers for Jersey and Guernsey.
This Commander was the late Haytian Admiral, so
well known for his great nautical skill and undaunted
bravery. The appointment of this Gentleman on this
station gives universal satisfaction, and is considered
to be a great and desirable acquisition to the service.

The characters are much of the same class with
those which Mr. MORTON and others have chosen to
depict in former Comedies ;—the imprudence of an
elderly man, through his wite's vanity and his son's
carelessness—the plain manners, but sincere friend.
ship of Damper—the absorption of every thing in the
mind of Sir Guy by the love of the Chace—the vulga-
rity, and vacuity, and gluttony of Boniface—the an.
consistencies of Ellen—and the tenderness and Alic-
lions of &rine. A,/tic has more pretensions to dis.
tinction. We do not know that such characters are
numerous in society : we shouldirather hope they are
not so. That Mr. blottron intends any strong allu.
sions to persons of this base description, who find
their way into families of wealth and fashion, we
cannot say. We were rather alarmed at the intro-
duction of the Frenchman, who talked very finely
of his native country, till we discovered him to be •
loyal emigrant.
The dialogue possesses the recommendation of
vacity, though, in the effect to make points, the wit
is frequently unsuccessful. It requires much judicious
pruning and curtailment. It contains a number of
allusions that will not bear a repetition. and is °cc?,
sionally helped up with some needless pr tises of a
great military Commander, whose merits do not re-
quire the aid of dramatic puffing.
There is some new scenery introduced thc view of a
park and mansion is beautifully designed and painted.
'the play was given out for representation to•nigbt
with much applause.
An indifferent Prologue was spoken by Mr. Anson..
