The characters of this drama are drawn with grent insight into human nature, Every one of them is distinet n type from the otber. -Even tho two Smaileys are unlike. The one is a Yoteran scoundrel dead to shame, and rohigious in boliof of bus own_soouvdreligm; the other & loss seasonad rogue, but just as dotestable.

The part of Mrs, Vanbrugh is one pecullnrly adapted to tho intellactusl and unaffected stylo of Mins Dyas. It is that of an aducated English Indy, dovotedly atiactiod to ber daughtor, and capable of mmurlnfi soything for that daughter, Mitn Dyos in euch arolo of exnlted sontimeat in without an equal, and cannot, therefore, bo praised too bighly, In the tender and pathetio acones she fs oquaily nistress of the sicuation, and in one acene of indignant uurprise displayed a glimpue of {ho grcat power for ovinolng pas- nloli which she suggests without (oo frequently spplying. i Tack ot Zuth Tredgett 1a not one which woman of rare boauty, desirous ouly of fame for beauty, would have chosen. A her first eutrance, Miss Duveuport prosents a hideous ling, na uapromlking au object for obarity a4 any could concelv. In picturiog her, however, Miss Dayenport hns spared us tho disgusting dotalla ‘whioh would shock tbe mind without purposo, and has contented herself with a vary vividly- colored bit of charactor-scting, which ranke among; the bost the modern drama affords.
