Eighteen Gentlemen and Six Ladies, to make an oiler of
their services hi those departments at your Theatre in ron-
don ; and, however sanguine 1 may Ix; in regard to their re-
spedive merits, believe, Sir, that it is_ from the high opi-
nion entertained of thei?, talents where they' have had the ho-
nour to appear (and that I am enabled to say, has been at the
principal Theatres in Franee),Ahat induces me to tender their
Performances for a sh.ort time, before great and judicious
English Audience.

proval, an immediate answer to me at Paris, will oblige,
