AMPHITHEATRE. ⸻The new burlesque of the Nine Taylors going a Fox hunting, does Mr. Astley as much credit for his humourous invention, as for his desire to cause his Amphitheatre to afford the greatest variety for the entertainment of the public. Nothing can be more whimsical than to see Mr. Shears fall upon Mr. Goose, Mr. Goose upon Mr. Thimble, Mr. Thimble upon Mr. Needle, Mr. Needle upon Mr. Yard, Mr. Yard upon Mr. Shop-board, Mr. Shop-board upon Mr. Cabbage, Mr. Cabbage upon Mr. Measure, and Mr. Measure upon Mr. Button; until these nine fag-ends of man-hood form an Egyptian Pyramid to the eternal disgrace of a Taylor’s horsemanship.
