The Stranded Actor, having been driven out of port at
the Strand Theatre, has put into a snug little haven at the Sans Souci, in Leicester Square ; where we hope he will find a permanent anchorage. Indeed, R us- SELL could not have found a more appropriate ; this being the scene of DonnN's vocal entertainments, and called after them Sans Solid. Russam's performance is very similar in its character to DIRDIN'S; its prominent feature being singing ; it is written by a son of DietnN, and the actor is also giving his audience all Dims's songs in succession. Ilessam. is the most genuine and hearty singer of them--perhaps the best—since INCLEDON; and as we listened to the good old song of " True Courage" the other night, the little cabin of a theatre rung again with the manly tones of the singer, and the applauses of the audience. If the spirit of DIBDIN ever haunts the scene of his former fame, it assuredly will preside at this revivification of his glory.
