The re-cntrance Of Mr.. Jefferson

sence Of ten years, was made on
November 1, at the Princess
Theatre, as Rip Van Winkle. The
London Telegraph, oil November

follows; IA better proof could
not have been given Of the more
earnest study Of high dramatic
effect in a wide aud generous
sense than the attention paid last
evening 70 Mr.. Jeflcrson's remark

forded to SO celebrated an actor.
From the time the curtain rose
until it felltinc audience appeared

Of Washington Irving6 hero, from
tho moment he appears followed
by all the dogs and shildren Of the
village until the Instant when tho
wandercr is ailectionately clssped
by his loving family, wae watched
with the most intense interest and
stteution. A performalces 20

well form the subject Of special
ard more extended comment, and
for the present we content orr

and gratifying success. Mr.. JEFF

have been difficult to selecta more
