ADJUSTMENTS.

New MEMPHIS THEATER.-Another as
semblage of the fashion and intelligence
of the city greeted Mr.. Jefferson last
evening, on the occasion of his second
rendition of "Trip Van Wrinkle" And
again he elected the same good opinions
from every one whom he swayed with the
emotions and whimsicalities of the poor
but even.tempered somnambulist Rip"
This striking piece, as presented by Mr..
Jefferson, seems to have been written in
anticipation of the man, aud the man
created in fulfillment of the piece. When
the brain of Irving was laboring
with the conception Of Rip Van
Wrinkle" it begot a Jefferson. We
cannot doubt this; for who but
Jefferson has given to the empty
words and inanimate portraitures OF
Irving an actual life and reality scarce
ly to be disbelieved. We know moi
whether to admire most Mr.. Jefferson
facial performing or his exquisite modu-
lation of voice to the soft and refined
German dialect. Both are exquisite in
themselves, and yet inseparable in the
general effect they produce in the mind
of the beholder. They are the two great
secrets of the artist s. success, devoid, as
his acting is, of all rant and claptrap.
Mrs. Allen was again received with
favor last evening, and in her rendition
of the wife of rip" she plays role
upon which that of Mr.. Jefferson s
greatly depends for effect. Mr.. Ander-
son is improving greatly as Derrick
Won Beekman," and last evening really
made shit" Rip Yam Winkle again
tonight.
CHILDREN OF ISRAEL CoNCERr.-The
grand musical entertainment to be given
at the Memphis Club Hall on the 18th,
for the benefit of the Congregation of the
Children of Israel, Is being looked for
ward to with much interest by musical
circles. A rare treat is expected, and
an assurance of this is guaranteed by
those under whose direction the affair is
being gotten up.
The VARIETIES. - Manager Broom
continues to add to his excellent troup,
and the patronage of the public keeps
apace, and increases accordingly. Misses
DeForrest and Whitney are the reigning
attractions, who, with Charley Howard
and Helene DeVere, nightly fill the
house, and gain therefrom hosts Of ar
dent admirers.
