Mr. BEULER'S ANN UAL EN TEATAINMENT.--
Monday next, we observe, is fixed for that entertainment
by which Mr. Beuler contrives each season to amuse so
many of his supporters. The present will be the
sixteenth of the series sitce its commencement, and will
take place as usual at the Freemasons' Hall, Great Queen-
street, Lincoln's Inn-fields, where we doubt not Mr. Beuler's
comic songs—this time relating, among other things, to
" Bloomerism" and the " Great Exhibition"—will, as usual,
considerably enhance the pleasure secured by the music and
dancing provided for the evening.
