THE KING'S LEVEE.

Yesterday his MAJESTY held his second Levee
since his Accession to the Throne, which was nume-
rously and splendidly attended, many of the Nobi-
lity and Gentry present being in addition to those
who attended the Levee of last week. They began
to arrive a few minutes before one o'clock, and con-
tinued
setting down till nearly four.
A-Guard of Honour marched into the-Court-yard
of the Kiug's Palace, previous to the commencement
of the Levee, preceded by the band of the First Re-
g;ment of Foot Guards, io their State uniforms, to-
gether with the Ensign attached to the Guard of
I lonour, with the Waterloo and other battles in which
it had been successfully engaged. A detachment of
the Life Guards marched into Waterloo-place arid
Pall4fall with their band of trumpets, kettledrums,
&c. in their rich splendid dresses, who played delight-
ful pieces alternately with the band of the Guard of
Honour. Townsend, Sayer, and a numerous assem-
blage of the Police were in attendance. The Grand
was lined with the Yeomen of the Guard. The
Honourable Band of Gentlemen Pensioners were in
attendance in the Octagon Hall.
Soon after two o'clock the KING entered the State
apartments, and proceeded to receive the Foreign
Ambassadors and Ministers, the Great Officers of
State, and those who have the privilege of the entree.
His Royal Highness the Duke of SUSSEX came in
State, and was received with military honours, the
band playing. GOD save the King. Prince ESTERHA ZY,
the Austrian Ambassador, the Duke of DEVONSHIRE,
and the Duke of WELLINGTON, came in State. Their
Royal Highnesses the Dike of CLARENCE and Prince
LEOPOLD came priv;:tely, and entered by the side door.

The Chevalier Isaszy, a distinguished French
Artist, in the style of our Academician CONWAY, has
just opened a Gallery, next the British. Institution,
Pall:Mall, for the exhibition of his works. This col-
lection has, we understand, been much admired at
Paris and Vienna, and the Artist stands in the first
estimation upon the Continent. The Gallery was
yesterday crowded by persons of the first rank and
consideration. It is fitted up with all the neatness of
French taste and ingenuity. A muslin canopy is
constructed in the form of a tent, elegantly festooned,
which foyers the Saloon, and through which the
light from above passes in a chastened degree, and
is thereby prevented from overpowering the soft and
delicate colouring of the Pictures. The Gallery con-
tains nearly one hundred works. They are Histori-
cal, Poetical, Landscape Sketches, and Portraits of
all sizes. The picture of the Plenipotentiaries at
Congress cor.tains admirable Likenesses of all the.
Ministers of the Allied Powers and their Secretaries,'
arranged in full length, with the greatest taste and i
skill. Bonapartis Reviews are also admirable, and
are interesting records, no; alone of the military tac-
tics of that extraordinary man, but still more so, as
containing the best Portraits of his most celebrated
Generals—' Those names at which the world grew
pale !"--and the most faithful representatives of that
effect which BONAPARTE always wished to produce,
and in whieh, perhaps, he was never surpassed.
There is a very curious Painting on Copper, which is
admirably executed in a rich and harmonious tone of
colouring. Some of the Sketches are really beauti-
fuVand the Landscapes in the highest degree in-
teresting. The Miniatures are full of merit, and
equal to any we. have 'ever before seen. We trust
that the result of M. Ismszv's exhibition will give
him a favourable idea of the taste of our Country.
His works are will entitled to public attentiou,-

COVEND-GARDEN TIMATRE.

A new Tragedy, founded on the story of Virginias,
and entitled " Virginias ; or, The Fall of Rome,' was
produced last night at this Theatre. its success was
brilliant, and its merit such that we think it will keep
permanent possessiiin of the Stage. The following
• are the principal Dramatis Persona':
A ppius Claudius ....... ...g Mr. Assam
Claudius Mr. CONNOR.
ll'irginius••• .•• es* so • * ..... *** ..... • ltr. MACR ZARIN
hill 113.• • ..... ••• ..... •••• Mr. C. Kzauns.
Siccius Dentatus Mr. TERRY.
Numitorius.......••... 00000 •••• Mr. Rat ILTON• "-
Virflinifa Miss Poore.
Servia (her Nurse) Mrs. Fantle.
The Play opens with the re-election of aligius to the Decem-
virate, and the loves of /cigars and Virginia. The marriage of
the latter is interrupted by an incursion of the Sabines upon the
Roman territory, which calls away the father and bridegroom
to the camp. The profligate tyranny of Apples, in the mean
time, becomes more odious and daring at Rome. lie acci-
dentally ices Virginia—is struck with her beauty—instructs
Clandins, the minister of his vices, to claim her as his slave. She
is, in consequence, dragged before the tribunal of the Decemvir,
but is. wrested for the moment from her peril, by the sudden ar-
rival of lidos, her lover—upon an undertaking that she should
appear with her father before the iniquitous Judge on the next
day. A messenger, ip the interim, seeks Vir.inins in the camp
—finds him breathing grief and vengeance for the murder of
Dentatus by the Deem:wits—brings him to Rome, and the father
and daughter again appear before the tyrant. The memorably
infamous decree is pronounced, and the outraged father, in his
despair, preserves the purity df his child, by plunging a poignard
in her bosom, which be draws out reeking, and with it, devotes
to the infernal gods th-: traitor despot and the institution of the
Deceinvirate. There is yet another Act, in which Virginity ap-
pears a maniac, discovers ApjKus in a dungeon, and, in his wild
frenzy, strangles him to death.
This is, indeed, an excellent Play ; the passages
prominently poetical are few, but these few discover
either ahappy combination of fancy and feeling, or
great vigour of imagination. There appears a stu-
dious avoidance of luxuriant imagery. .The Piece
may be compared' to those itionuments of art which
exhibit the musculat• vigour and natural proportions
of the antique, naked and unadorned. Virginias is•
drawn a dramatic per ()nage of a high order. His
historical character, and the Roman manners of hii
time, are preserved with great force and fidelity of
touch. The delineation of this arduous character by
MacitEany will take its place among the first
performances on the Stage. It is one of the finest
specimens of the art which his great and still growing
genius has yet produced. Austere,.tender, familiar,
elevated, ming:ing at once terror and pathos, he ran
over the scale of dramatic expression, with the highest
degree of what may be called power. Mr. C. KEM-
BLE, who laboured under a severe cold, still played
kllius admirably. The scene in which he suddenly
appears and rescues his bride, was in his finest style,
and received electric applause from the audience.
Mr. TERRY and Mr. ABBOTT perfoimed their respec-
tive parts with judgment and ability. The Author
has reason to be satisfied with the diligence with
which all the remaining less important characters
were repretented. Miss FOOTE deserves high and
particular praise for her representation of Virginia.
Mrs. FAUCET had one good scene as the nurse, which
she played with great effect. The Tragedy was given
out for repetition, amidst lively and unmixed applause.
