Joesstots, afser an absence of two years,-to a London audience, in the part of Beatrice. A report had been spread for several days that an opposition was intended. for some private maws, to this-Lady's performance, and the curtain rose to a -very full house. Mrs. J o !site's's entre teas greeted, by a mixture of applause and disapprobation. The genuine feeling of the audience, who interfered in the business, expressed itself in " gf! 05!" ac• companies' with hisses. The beginning ot the first , acme was lOtt in clamour, mad Mrs. Joissisrosi skewed a disposition to address the audience, but was prevented by an universal cry of " on. go ;" and the immediate entrance of Mr. Lewis. in the part of Betintici, 'restored the house to transient good humour. But the part of Beatrice abounds with many allusions appareetly in unison with the feelings of the unfriendly part of the audience. Mis.Joanstom was assailed, and her exits were generally marked with repeated hisses. Mrs. JOHNSTON looked extremely well, but is rather thinner than when we lest saw her. Her Ada iliklenheirm, end several other parts, are of ate first I order of excellence; but the charatler of Beatrice is not in her line, nr suited to her powers.-4-The Theatre, however, affilds a very wide range in which this Lady may prove extremely useful, and add to her present dramatic fame. Miss Bottom is a most improving aftress; and Was a beautiful and interesting HMO. Mr. Lswis played Benefirk with his usual vivacity, and received great applause. There was a considerable delay at the end of the third ael, when the house becoming clam-iesioe, M r . MURRAY apologized for the absence of Mr. CIIA MAN, who was to play the Friar. and recriested time for Mr. Davrmisoar to assume the h, t.-- Mr. CHAPMAN, however, appeared in the last ad. The new Pantominie followed, in which the hu !Tient' of GDIHALOg, BOLOONA, &c. kept the ju venile part of the audience in bursts of laughter. Yesterday morning becoming very fine.

Call her as we please, affelted— perhaps she is so—nay we think she is—a copyist of Mrs. JORDAN, we are sure she is, in many points— but it is as VikGIL copies HOSIER. as WIEST would copy Awnzto—she is an imitator it is trite, but she imitates like a mutters in her profession—she copies a great earns, but she also studies nature, and what is more perhaps in a Comedian, however liable to censure it may be in other professions, she is a complete mannerist.

Tha, in regard to the resources of the island, it appears, that, hour the last great efforts which have been made by the African merchants and faetors in England, the importation of S4IIVIII in the current year has been so considerable, as t 'liaise produced. on account of the Negro docks, a surples of near 31,0001. after deduffirig the estimate for the year, and that it is probable, that the duties which will arise from the negrors recen'ly imported, an] those which are expefted to arrive before the day limited fee the termination of the trade, will amount to a further sum o! 20,0001, maki le about 50,0001. ep • propriable to the expense of the establishment of the island, or towards redeeming the island papers. which are outstanding, and which amount ti ` 1 30,0001. a considerable part bearing interest at eight per cent.; but, immediately after the first day of March next. that resource will entirely be cu: off. That another pi oduaive branch of the is!and revs nue, the land tax, introduced to meet the heavy debt occasioned ky the Maroon war, an] other mar tial laws, cannot be •relied upon to come in aid of our exigencies to thonsu it extent, since the uncul tivated lands are now rendered of no value to the proprietois ; the stamp duties will also, nedessarill. be diminished; and the operation of the deficiedry law will be unavailing, wilts respell to Or chiral either of policy or tevenne s mace the temptation which induced settlers to come to, or to continue fn, the island, will no longer exigf, the natural comm. quences of which will be, that the white militia mint inevitably be conshterably 'diminished.
