For the BENEFIT of Miss SMITH.
ROYAL AMPHITHEATRE, WESTMINSTER-BRIDGE.
On MONDAY next, the 30th instant.
IMPRESSED as Miss SMITH feels herself, with a warm and lively sense of gratitude for the distinguished patronage hitherto experienced from her Friends and the Public, on various occasions, and humbly presuming that she may still rely on so flattering a sanction, (at all times her study and ambition to merit) she begs leave with the utmost deference, to announce, that her Benefit is fixed for Monday next; on which Evening, no exertion or effort on her part shall be wanting, to prove herself at least, in some manner, deserving of their favours.

The principal Characters by Miss SMITH and Mr. ASTLEY, Jun. being most assuredly his last appearance this Season.—The Evening’s Amusements to conclude with a Grand Comic HARLEQUINADE. With a great Variety of other new Performances, the Particulars in the Bills and Newspapers of the Day.
