Aftei an db4eiee of,OVer. three pep's, Mr. Vonsden
Opened this pretty Par Mt Cieningloi:ct 'lease, the
appearance of which at, once pineldifiled the,estiatation
in which the ability .of the performer is held ty the
public, even after such a long interval. The house W'as
full and fashionable ; .end it .must have been flattering
to rote ;iiftrritabite see': himself thus appreCiited.
Amongst the liewikpeis' et Ore three kingdoms we have
heretofore had occasion ick'spea* of Ml.Arentden't per-
formance in terns of praise, justlYdeserfed, rid*/ tithe has
strengthened our opinion in this respect; and it any,
thing,. we think,he is improved both in voice and action.
• Solo performances have increased for some time past,
but they drop off as rapidly as .they appear, because they
cannot 'sustain what they assume ; and out of some fifty
that have presented themselves to the public within the
last half dozen years,. Mr. Vonsden is the only one who
has sustained his 'position, and added 'te. his reputation,
which has increased as he proceedt. The secret of his
success is that be attempts nothing but what he Can do,
and what he does to perfection. Any one of frigtharac:
ters would' make a fortune for an ordinary performer.
When we see an " unity" of • national characters pre-
, tented to us so truly and nab ally, and in such rapid site-
cession, we cannot fail to adinire and applaud the genius
of one inclividaal, who so admirably pourtrays them.
His French dancing-1111%W it finely conceived and admi-
rably executed ; it is peerless i'n' its way, and the Irish
jarvie is the acme of perfection. The flne, free,
"rollickin" Jonathan, is the very 'Yankee thing itself;
and as for the English "Tar" and the brave lilted son
of the Highlands, you have them before you, and no
mistake. We have no doubt that many would feel
inclined to OW with the "Bavarian broom-girl," so
adwittibil clots Mr. Vonsden depict het to his audience.
It maxittit,Vtbeted that these' are not caricatures,
but the real colours; Thu dialogue it appropriate, and
the illustrative songs (all, his all trelde and music) are
given with a degree of efficiency that chat? all
think the enthusiasm of the audience last evetiTng a
fair Wel of what may be expected at the hall during '
the staj, of this,thirivalled single-handed performer.
