THRifTRES.

DRURY LANE.—Often as the excellent Tragedy
of Richard lii. has been performed, it still maintains
its attraction. The peculiar genius and powers of
Mr. KEAN are admirably suited to give it permanent
currency :—Last night he repeated the part of the
tyrant, with all that native enegry and genuine fire
with which he has so often electrified his auditors.—
His performance also derived increased effect from
the circumstance of his voice being, last night, more
clear than it has usually been.
COVENT GARDEN.—The Tragedy of Venice Pre-
served was again performed last night to an overflow
ing and-splendid House. Miss O'NEILL, in Belvidere,
displayed, with the happiest effect, those transcendant
powers which never fail, in the tender and affecting
scenes of domestic calamity, to excite the sympathy,
and command the feelings, of her audience.
