wliicti, v^ljile it gratifies Ibe reader, rea- 

 ders tlie work unsuitable to the stage. 

 The scenes, indeed, possess none of that 

 active interest, nor is the dialogue sustain- 

 ed with that brevity and vigour, wbicli 

 are necessary to ensure success in the re- 

 presentation. We find, however, ample 

 amends for these deficiencies in the lively 

 and glowing fancy, which runs almost into 

 wiidness, and indicates the yet unprnned 

 genius of this youthful author. This qua- 

 lity predominates so much in his composi- 

 tion, as to give it the character rather of a 

 romantic play than of a regular tragedy. 

 The plot is perfectly simple ; and, although 

 turning upon incidents sufficiently striking 

 and ati'ecting, and worked up occasionally 

 with great strength of feeling, is princi- 

 pally to be commended as the vehicle of 

 much beautiful poetry. Tlieie is so much 

 promise in this early effort of Mr. 

 Beddors's muse, that we shall look forward 

 with confidence and pleasure to future 

 productions; and we think we can per- 

 ceive in his " Bride's Tragedy" a copious 

 and original store both of thought and ex- 

 pression, which is not likely to leave our 

 wishes in this respect nngratified.
