On this occasion Mr. JOHNSTONE, so tuauy years the favourite representative of Irish ottaractria, appeared ea Dennis Bnlgraddery, in the comedy of Jolts Bid!, and was welcomed with. a henrty enthusiasm, worthy of his merits and of the cause which drew him from his retirement to the stage. Excepting that the loss of his teeth has somewhat injured his articulatioa, his per. formauce was as perfect as ever. Dosrrou, who came forward also to perform Job Thornberry, was received with acclamation, and played with sturdy pathos.
