On iliS ferrant entering his chamber, ordered his

groan. On Friday morning Sir JoHN attended his
pupils as ufnal, and in the evening was at Covent-
Garden Theatre. He has left two unmarried daugh-
ters and a fon, a Captain in the army. The pro-
perty is laid to be very confiderable that he has left
behind him. At the age of twenty-five he made his
entre at the Opera Houle, in the Hay-market, then
under the management of Mr. Du BURGH, as a
dancer,: the enfuing feafun lie was made principal
dancer, and in a few feafons became ballet matter,

Came Manager of the Opera Houle, and had the

Sir Jima was Manager at the time the houfe was
burned down in 1789; he then tent a Gentleman to
Italy and France to bring him plans of the Opera
Honfes in thrice paces, to form his judgment in the
detigning of the prefent King's Th,:att e. It is Paid
he advanced thirty thoufand pounds towards the ex-
ecution of this building : when finifhed, an oppofition
was formed, by propOting to open the Pantheon for
the performance of Chivas. But Mr. TAYLOR, a
Procriztor, taking the management into his hands,
Sir JoHN retired, and devoted the remainder of his
life to his profetlion of dancing-mailer.

The Concert and Supper given at the Lower Rooms
on Wednefday evening, we yelierday olderved we
lhouid again notice in a future letter.

The Company affembled on the occafion were truly
elegant and fele& ; and many of the briobtelt be-
witching beauties of Bath were prefent.
Sir SYDIEY SMITH, encircled by bonny belles,
teemed highly to enjoy his (twit:ion. How applica-
ble the following lines of BLaumour, were to the
gallant officer, forcibly lt-uck many prefent
" With this reward, the great reward of beauty,
The h.ttter'd hero crowns his glariuus labours,
And foftcns at the tugged tuils of war."
The whole of the evening's entertainment was ex-
tremely well concluaed.
The Supper over, the following Grace was
chaunted

" Seu edamus reu bilsamus
Feu quid aliud faciansus,
Deo gratias agamus,
I julque busies enneina.nus."

A►. the conclulion of this, the Prefident gave as a
toall, " The King," which, (the company !landing)
w.ts rapturoufly drank by all prefent.
" God Save the King," verfe and Chorus followed.
The fecond mall was, " The Prince of Wales, the
Patton of the Society ;" (the company Handing)
which was received with enthuliafm.
_ _

The following Glee, in a very fine (kyle, was then
lung

If love and wine's beguiling pow'r
To mulic's (trains can add delight,
Ah, why not (size this gladden'd hour,
When all thufe genial charms unite?
To tell, exulting 411, with pride,
The fate there favour'd choirs attend,
And charge the glats in purple tide,
To hint, our patron, and our friend.
Then round tb' alfenting plume entwine
A wreath to crown th' exulting lyre,
Of myrtle leaves, and tendril vine,
Fm who can fce and not admire .
Thefe powers to charm, that art to plea re,
In him (to whom the Mu'es lend
Thdr genius, talent, wit, and ea fe,)
Who is the Mules constant friend !
Now strike the thrilling lyre, and raife
Th'enraptur'd note to Albion's Heir:
To whom we tent thcfe grateful lays,
Our brig:AA hope, our pride and care,
In whom (e'en envy mutt agree)
The graces move in harmony,
We drink—(in which the Mutes join)
The Prince, the fav 'rite of the Nine !

The third watt was, " The Ladies who horiottr
this Society."
The Glee, (Gentlemen Banding,) " Here's a
health to all good Latter," followed.
" The Navy and Army, with the glee of " Bri-
tain's belt Bulwarks," " Succefs to the Harmonic So•
ciety," with the glee of " Life's a Bumper," foc-
ceeded, and pleafantly ccntribnted to the harmonic
fociability which prevailed.
In the cootie of the evening
Young Henry was as brave a youth
As ever grac'd a martial Rory, &e.
was very finely fang by WALSH POEM, Eft. and
was greatly and defervedly applauded by all prefent.
The Company removed from the Supper-tables
about twelve o'clock, to the Ball-room, where the
Goddefs of the light lantaltic toe enlivened her vota-
ries fur many hours.
The Dancers were falhionable and numerous.
The Members of the Bath Catch and Glee Club,
and the Members of the Harmonic Society, do not,
to us, appear on the molt friendly terms with each
other. The late entertainment given by the former
to the Ladies at the Upper-room (fans flipper), had
to boalt of feveral of the moll eminent vocal perfor-
mers of the prefent day, among( whom the names of
BRAHANS, STOKACI, MORELLI, INCL:D3N. &c. were
included ; the entertainment given on Wedneftlay,
though deficient in this particular. had to buatt of the
more folid aurael4'n of one of the moo fumptuous
(uppers ever given in this part of the country. This
circumflance has given rile to the following remarks,
that at one place r 1 ever all fong, and rr9 Srofr, while
all Suppr and la Song was :he rage at the other.
Whatever may be Paid of the former, the latter may
truly boalt, that then Chriltmas entertainment was
not deticicnt in roan beef and plumb-pudding.
THE THEATRE—" Pizarro,' and "7& Minor,"
in which Meas. Micruusw, Davis, BREAETOPS, and
LANGLEY. performed thofe parts for which they had
been previoully announced, as amateurs of fortune,
and attraCted one of the moll crowded audiences to
witnefs the exertion of their powers that ever was
I known at this theatre.

Every avenue, in fall, leading to the houfe, even
before the doors were opened, was blocked up with
fedons, and pedeflrians endeavouring to force their
way for admißion to the pit and galleries.
.The fignal for the commencement of the perfor-
mances (the tinkling of the bell behind the fcenes)
was at length heard, and greeted with &outs by the
gods in the gallery ; and Mr. P. NILTRU tut foon af-
ter appeared, and recited an addrete with the confi-
dence, if not with the ability, of the molt experienced
veteran of the lock.

The tragic play now commencedi and the tear of
husbtn• wars often flied at the exquilite fcene of mirth-
moving dillrefs, which it, on this occation, exhibited.
The Amateur: were cett..inly deferving of the ap-
plaufe they received, all of whom had claims to (xi-
ginali cr. at lealt, and luccefsfully ',mailed a new way
of delitliating their refpeaive charaaers, fuch, we
believe, as was never feen on the Britith Rage before.
Rolla was dreired remarkably well. His let fcene
was but little lhort of perfeaion, and !Etas eta him.
felf, as Rella, probably was never leen to greAter ad-
vatitage—on dm bier.
Shift, Smiri, and Mother Cole, in the piece which
followed, made the audience laugh, though whether
at Shp, Smirk, ,Elother Cob, the Author, or Attor, we
(hall not pretend to determine.

Friday the mail who was fufpefted of ftealing a
trunk from the Angel Inn, St. Clement's, the
property of a Gentleman who had juit arrived by
a Rage coach, was examined at Bowareet, but
the evidence not being cleaned fufficient, be was dif-
charged.
