Charlestown, South-Carolina, Oct. 30.
In the Carolina Packet, Capt. Robson, from London, Mr.
Douglass, manager of the American Company of Comedians, is
returned, who, we hear, has brought over, at a great
expense, a most excellent set of scenes done by Mr. Doll,
principal scene-painter to Covent Garden house, and
collected some very eminent performers from both the
theatres in London, particularly in the singing-way, so that
the English comic opera a species of entertainment that has
never yet appeared properly on this side the water, is
likely to be performed here this winter to advantage.
