CLOSE OF THE ENTERTAINMENT.

The nobility, gentry, and th, public are respectfully Informed, that
the popular Entertainment given by the Ethiopian Serenaders, Pell,
Harrington, White, Stanwood, and Germon, will be positively ter-
minated at the enl of the ensuing month of June, previously to the
fixed departure of the Company for the Continent, on the sth of
July. Since the commencement of this Entertainment, more than
four hundred performances, public and private have been given in
London ; and, notwithstanding the numerous vulgar imitations which
have been tecently attempted in the metropolis, the unapproachable
superiority of the above party is established by their undiminished
popularity and success. During the few remaining weeks of their
engagement, the performances will be continued every Tuesday,
Thursday, and Saturday evenings, and a Morning Performance will
take place every Wednesday. The entertainments of the Thursdays
during the month 01 June will be appropriated for the separate Bene-
fits of each member of the Company. And, in order to produce an
agreeable souvenir of the unparalleled popularity of these perform-
ances, it is intended to present to every visitor of the private boxes
and stalls a portrait of the beneflciare in his private appearance, and
also in his professional capacity, illustrating some favourite melody.
Such portraits will be executed from the life, in the finest style, by
H. Maguire, Esq., and are already nearly completed. The benefits
Will be arranged in the following order :
Thurgday, June 3, for the benefit of Germon (tamborine),
Thursday, June 10 ditto Stanwood (accordion),
Thursday, June 17 ditto White (banjo),
Thursday, June 24 ditto Harrington (banjo),
Thursday, July 1 ditto Pell (bones)
ta.evlonsly to the last Farewell Performance, on Saturday Evening,
