ASTLEY'S AMPHITHEATRE.

Next Monday, Monday, the 30th instant, Mr. INrillioo
Cooke, the enterprising lessen of Astley's A„11:1,,;
phitheatre, takes his retiring benefit, ail%
which evening the management of this 10
nowned place of amusement passes into ?,
hands of his sons. Setting aside the attractiY,
nature of the entertainments selected for the °colt
ston, such an event would most certainly drams' 111
immense audience, for the habitues of Astley's
all be anxious to testify to Mr. Cooke their acrd
ration of the manner in which he has condo°
the theatre 4inqc he became lessee.
