Mas. SINCLAIR attempted Dramatic and Poetical
Reading on Friday night at Metropolitan Hall, in
which we are sorry to have to say, she completely
failed The house crowded with q fashionable
audience, who appeared to feel deeply for her. No
person Of sound judgement could ever have advised
her to such step and to sit is strange that she
should thus risk all her reputation in an undertaking
that required so much effort She Was not even able
to conclude the undertaking. Mr. vsndenhOf was
compelled to conclude the reading which the Lady
had commenced Mrs. s. is to appear in Philadelphia
