COVENT•GARDEN THEATRE.

Last night Rob Roy was performed, for, we pre-
some, the petits, of Miss Suntans's Fader re-en.
try on the metropolit in boards. A few simple songs
ate the price of popularity in the part of Diane Per.
non, and those she sang with her usual skill. Her
entrance on the 110,110 was honoured with much elm
pious*. and she s►emed quite overwhelmed by her
reception, perhaps a little mo►e than was quite
probable in the sensibilities of .a performer who
has stoutly faced so matey audiences of all kinds
dating those half dozen years; but something
must be allowed for the customary acting in the
case, sad she certainly accomplished her alarms'
with considerable dexterity. Dimon, prominent is
the celebrated Novel. is thrown into Ilse back ground
in the Mama, and Miss SvErligns, after a short de-
volopmeut of the public favouritism, and of her own
very capable voice, gave way to the trot interest of
the performance. The c►aracter of Rob Roy in the
Dams seems to be more digoified—to tale a more
leading pert in forwarding the cata►trophe, and lobe
altogether more of the Highland Chieftain, than the
alternate conspirator and cattle-driver of the Novel.
M•calsov's performative of this part was perhaps
one of the first displays that brought him into pecu-
liar notice, and his elections last 'sight hut nothing
of the simplicity, shrewdness, end esetteeline spirit
of his original successes. Lesion's Millie is not
;skijor to say of his performances. The play was
altogether well received by oue of the most csowded
busses of t►e season.

following regulation:—
" Henceforward merchant vessel-, as well notional ;

Fon rig STATESMAN.

On taking a review of oar foreign relations, the
United Stile* of America press themselves more Im.
mediately on our siltation. The ambitions projects
avowed by Am►rice,—that spirit of rivalling es
which points all her designs, and animates all her
purseits,—and the proalmity of her territory to
our Trans-Atlantic possessions, combine to reader ft
more than probable t►at. at no distant period. her in-
terests and oars will be brought into hostile collision.
When to the above eireemstsoces are superadded the
arJ►nt desire of the Americans to supersede es in the
Sovereignty of the Seas, we are seriously appreben-
sire .has, etenteally, the term " natural enemies"
will be most peculiarly applicable by es to that Peo-
ple.

On no subject whatever have the People of Eng.
lin I a more perplexed opinion, than upon the re.
sources, morel and physical, of America. They de-
rive their knosledge of that country and its inhabit.
ants from travellers, each of whom is a political be.
ing, sui generic, to the ad►ancement of whose love-
lier opinions lot remarks are msde subservient. One
traveller digeolteell ell the dignity of human niter, in
the character even of the American squatter, and
fugitive from civilized society: another, of a more
fastidious temper, is disappointed to find that optimism
has not established its empire in the West ; and that
the Awoken'', in plies of attending to the ordinary
concertos of life, do not esclesiv•ly subsist upon the
ambrosia of libel', : while another (a native, whose
eyes ere jaundiced by party spleen) perceives every
measure of the Government to he fraught with dints.
ter end rein In the Republic. By the contradictory
statements ..f such writers the People of this country
can be led to no satisfactory conelusion. Besides,
we have within ourselves a main nose of fades hien
of lodgment. Self-confidence and conten.pi of fo.
reigners is (as it may happen to be cons•rued) the
prevailing video, ..r besetting sin of Englishmen,
which inveriably disposes as In ender-rote the utility
of oar enemies. Experience has taught es that t►e
means of sennyance • hich the Americans possess ere
far from contemptible ; but we recoil from a cond.
derision, of the tart, and merge into the comfortable
persuasion :bet America is a pe..l,•uttriityr, Or in!
