CO NT-GAR DES 2://E ADR R.

The Battle of Bothrell Brier, a new drama in two
art', from the celebrated Scotch novel of OW Merfetfity,
Was brought out at this Theatre last night.
This story is not so peculiarly fitted fur stage rrpresentas
floe as those which have been dramatised Wawa. And,
ineteed of condensing its materials into two sets, there is
more occasion for lengthening It beyund three, than in any
one of its predecessors. This Is evident from the trontlatird
hustle and activity of the eharacters, and the variety of inci-
dent Wilk which the vork abounds. The fault of this play
is. that the dramatist has been obliged to compress so much
in two acts, to render the plot intelligible (and does nut even
then succeed), that the iocideats themselves fail to bt‘ronle so.
The music is the chief merit of the piece. It boasts not 'drily
a most delightful selection of Scotch airs, but some ot the,
hest original mask we ever heard from nano,. The duet,
What bliss to know." is a chaste and elegant cothpositiont
Its melody pure and free, and the combination sciehtifle and
elective. Miss M. Tats sang most charmingly. Two of
her %latch airs were encored, and there was nothing we did
mot long to hear from her a second time. The scenery is, as
usual, splendid. Some opposition was manifested at the

announcemeat of the pieee for repetition. but the majority
contented. and it has sufficient merit, ue think. to support a
short existence.

COBOURG THEATRE.
Last night was bruught furward, for the first time,
at this Theatre, a new Comic Pantomime. called He:nit-
ric,' rertashio; or. The Serest Gifted ties, In which was in-
