Jefferson at the theatre. We are confident that our citizens will require no urging to go and see that most excellent of comedians, Jefferson, who commences an engagement to-night. He has received the most decided marks of popular favor in New York during the past two years, and is admitted to be the best in his profession now on the stage. His recent engagement in Baltimore was also highly successful. Two plays will be produced to-night--Sheridan's capital comedy, "The Rivals," and that amusing afterpiece called "The Lady of the Lions." In the first, Mr. Jefferson plays "Bob Acres," one of his best characters, and in the last, "Clod Meddlenot." We hope to see no more long faces for some time. Political disappointments and pecuniary perplexities will lose their influence under the genial sway of Jefferson's drolleries.
