AOTHER GRAND GALA!
POSITIVELY THE
LAST FOR THE SEASON!
MONDAY NEXT, SEPTEMBER 5, 1812.
THE unsettled state of the weather having prevented
many families of distiction attending:the festivities on
Wednesday last, Mr. Atkins has been induced to repeat the
Performances on MONDAY EVENING next, being posi-
titively the Last Grand Gala of the Season.

Re-engagement (for One Night only) of
MONSIEUR GOUFFE,
TILE INIMITABLE PROFESSOR OF
ANIMAL PORTRAITURE!
Whose distinction of character between the wild and domes-
ticated state of the Ourang Ontang has been considered by
Naturalists and thousands of delighted spectators, the most
correct representation in the capacities of Man.
The extraordinary performances of Mons. Gouffe have
been witnessed by crowded audiences, not only in England,
but in every Theatre on the vast Continent of America, for
the last four years. The spirit and confidence with which
this Phenomenon performs his evolutions, keep the spectator
in constant wonder ; his feats are performed with that de-
cided easo which characterises the Animal, of whose eccen-
tricities Mons. GOuffe is so happy in his illustration.
In addition to the above, an arrangement has been entered
into (for this Night only) with the celebrated
MADAME ROSSINI,
(Of the Royal Vauxhall, and the Surrey Zoological Gardens,
London,)
Whose recent performances here have been witnessed with
intense anxiety and breathless awe by assembled thousands.
