DRURYTEATRE.

Tile admirers of the moral drama were amused last
night at Duty, by a chaste performance of Mootte's
affecting Tragedy of the Gamester; a play which has
a powerful effect in checking the infatuation proclaimed
by the fashionable vice of gaming. The part of Beverly
was sustained by YOUNG, in his best style of acting. It
is really a chefiefeeuvre, but the principal novelty of the
night was Miss PHILLIPS as Mrs. Beverly. To those
who have directed their attention to the acting of chat
young Lady, it is almost superfluous to say, she pos-
sesses strong natural endowments. She is not the mere
child of practice ; not merely drilled into the profession ;
she is competent to feel and express feeling. As the
amiable, correct, and honourable wile, she appeared to
very great advantage; so much so, that we think she
has talent to succeed in any character she may attempt.
The tragedy is one i f those domestic pictures in which
the destructive habit of play is seen in frightful colours,
and our synaptthies are strongly excited. There is, how-
ever, another featta• e equ illy in ow inept, namely, that t.f
the basest perfidy. &likely is one of the most finished
cowardly villains found in the drama. His endeavour
to destroy the remaining peace of Beverly by the se-
duction t f his wife is most atrocious.

In the last scene of the third act, Mks PHILLIPS gave
proof of the greatest excellence. In the following scorn
of the scoundrel who had ruined her husband sbe was
must energetic:

" Would that these eyes had Haavnia own lightning, that with
a look thus I might bla.t thee! Am I they fallen so low ? Has
poverty so humLkd me that I should listen to a hellish offer, and
sell my soul for bread? Oh ! villain ! viUain ! But now I kuow
thee, and thank thee for the knowledge."

The audience gave her three rounds of applause.
The dignity of virtue in the triumph over vice was
never more forcibly depicted. This Lady did justice
tarthe part, and in the last scene was greeted with
reiterated plauditq.
The part d f Stukelli—unquestionably the meanest,
vilest, and most atrocious of stage ruffians—was per.
formed by Mr. COOPER, with excellent discrimination.
lie would, are sure, have been frequently appl ruded,
but a species of moral feeling prevented the audience
from paying any mark of le pect to the representative of
a character so cruel and so cowardly.
Charlotte, by Mrs. Warr, and Lucy, by Miss Wes-
TON, were played with propriety The curtain fell
amidst loud applause.
After the tragedy and the new dance, the audience
were kept in a state cf merriment by the extravaganza
if Giovanni in London.

During the heavy g .le on Friday morning, a fishing
yawl, belonging to Michael Gaffney, of Al alahide,vihilst
on its way to that place from Lambay, was upset, and
lour persons on board were drowned. They had been
engaged on Thursday night in taking herrings near
Lambay, and they were returning with several other
boats. When within half a mile of Malahide, the storm
raged with such violence, that they found it necessary,
as a measure of precaufon, to take down the sails;
whilst this was effecting, the mast gave way, and fell
across the vessel, bearing with it part of the sails, which
because so heavy by taking in a quantity of water, as to
cause the upsetting of the boat. The names of the
um.fottinate cuff. rers are, Michael Gaffney, William
Dune, John Quin, and Thomas Horan. In a few hours
after st ards,tlse boat and three hats were found near the
si.ote.—Lublin Lrening Yacht.
