Transcription

Long before the drawing up of the curtain, the Royal Amphitheatre has for some nights back presented a display of beauty, fashion, and numbers, that only a place of the most attractive nature can in any way be said to exhibit. This favourite place has, however, proved a kind of monopolist for some time past over the curiosity of John Bull, and his extensive progeny. Such riding, such rope-dancing, such vaulting, such a Pantomime as Fairy Land, and such a nautical scenic spectacle as the Victory over the French in the Busque Roads, no other place of amusement can present on one and the same evening.
