But that which made the revival chiefly memorable was, the introduction on the stage of real cavalry. About twenty of the most beautiful horses ever seen, under the management of Messrs. Parker, Crossman, and others, performed astonishing feats of agility in the attack on Blue Beard's castle. Their attraction was so very great, that the managers soon repeated the experi ment in a piece called Timour the Tartar. In both, the horses were at once greatly abused by the critics, and greatly followed by the town. See p. 465. P. 63. No. 161.] For "Paul," read "Richard Paul." ten, we understand, by the Rev.
