CALAMITOUS FIRE.
In consequence of the total destruction of this theatre, with
all the properties, scenery, dresses, and effects, upwards of 300

gaining a subsistence, besides having sustained the loss of all
their property in the theatre. The assistance of a benevolent
public issearnestly and anxiously solicited in behalf of these
poor sufferers and their families during their present state of
severe distress. A Committee has been formed to secure the
judicious distribution of the funds which may be raised.
The following bankers have kindly consented to receive
subscriptions—Messrs: Coutts and Co. ; Messrs. Glyn and
Co. ; Messrs. Drommonds ; Sir Claude Scott, Bart. ; and
Mess-s. Western and Young; and subscriptions will also be
most thankfully received by illiam Withal', Esq., 7, Parlia-
ment-street; by Wilkinson and Cobbold, 5, Chancery-lane;
and by the Committee, who sit daily at the Treasury-office of
the late theatre, 18, Stangate-street, Lambeth.
