SURREY THEATRE.

S:nce the return of our favourite T. P. Cooicr, Black
Eyed Susan has been revived at the Surrey, and was last
night played for the 133 d time. Altogether the piece
went off exceedingly well. The fist Art, which was wont
to he dull and tedious, pleased us much better than it did
during the representations of last season. Though we
have several times witnessed CooKE's admirable perform-
ance of William, we never saw him to greater advantage
in the part than on last night. Often as he has played it,
and we should have thought him almost tired of the repe-
tition, lie still infuses into the character the freshness and
vigour of his first performances. It is as strongly distin-
guished as ever by those simple, yet true and powerful,
touches of nature, by those bursts of deep pathos, and in-
descrihal•de intensity of feeling which so distinguish the
acting of Alre C.OOKE, and which render his British sea-
men among the most delightful, finished, and often affecting
performances on our stage. Last night we saw several
around us shedding tears—the most unequivocal proof of
the actor's talents. It would be unkind to omit the men-
tion of Aliss SCOTT, who looked exceedingly well as Susan,
and really played the part with great simplicity and effect

MISS KEMBLE.—MiSS KEMBLE, as we
expected, has been highly successful at Edinburgh. Her
Juliet appears to have given the greatest satisfaction.

A work, entitled " Norrington ; or, the Me-
moirs of a Peer," will shortly' make its appearance, in
which circumstances are introduced which have actually
taken place, and many characters, knowa both here and
in the metropolis of a sister isle, make a prominent ap-
pearance.

THE BITER BITTEN.—Last week a poor
lad, an itinerant vender of laces, braces, Rm., was so per-
severingly labouring in his vocation in the streets of Lin-
coln, as to incur the displeasure of a man in office, who
determined to put an end to Isis troublesome importuni-
ties. For this purpose he purchased a shilling's worth of
his braces, and immediately demanded ti-.e poor trader's
licence. To his great surprise the lad was prepared for
him. The man in authority, who was prepared to
punish, was chagrined at the disappointment, anti his
braces being no onger of use to him, he offered to re-sell
them at a trifling reduction. The ready-witted dealer
made the purchase, and hastened to a city Magistrate, be-
fore whom he lodged an information against his customer,
for hawking without a licence. The little officer was con-
victed in the penalty of 10/., and was hearti:y laughed at
into the bargain; and the informer, instead of being re-
garded with the feeling commonly bestowed on the frater-
nity, was congratulated on his good fortune in pocketing
half the
penalty.... Oxford Journal,
