• One of the "brothers Brough" tuicla gentleman named Bridgemanlave

concocted a very ingenious melodrama, which has been produced this week-.at the Adelphi,'under the title of Jessie Grey. The plot turns on the seltame of a villanous baronet, who, enraged at his nephew 'forming a plebeian alliance, punishes the object of the.unlucky passion by the means which.are used to destroy the character of Hero in _Much Ado about .No- thing. The incidenta .are well gut together ; .and thelanguage, though here and there too prosy, is above the common mark. The whole com- pany, with the exception of Miss Woolgar and Mr. Wright, play in the piece ; and the absence of 'the latter is less missed through the sudden start into prominence of Mr. Honey,—a humourist of a somewhat hard school, who in the delineation of a medical student stungwith.remoree for certain wrongs he has done, and trembling at the terrors of a college- examination, shows a rare talent for characteristic individuality.
