Mrs. Jonna.n.—This fascinating actress made.
her tint appearance on the Bath boards List night.
It is unnecessary, it would be superfluous, to be-
strew particular commendation where all was excel-
lent and enchanting. To say that Mrs. JORDAN is
the grit actress of the age ; that she never has
been, ■nd ptohablv never will be. surpassed ; that
for playful huMour, naivete, and a bewitching sim-
plicity of mariner, no performer of the present
day can approach to a competition with hertelitit
is it but to repeat the universal sentiment of all
who have seen her? In such a general dearth of
dramatic talent, it is pleasing to witness something
that calls as hack to the "good old times :" anal
those who shall neglect to see Mrs. JORDAN will
deprive themselves certainly' of the highest treat
that theatrical representation, in comedy, can afford.
