London. Feb. 8. Mr. Hallam, brother to Mrs. Mattocks, has
lately had a letter from America, inviting him to the
direction of three theatres in the principle cities in
America, viz, New-York, Boston, and Philadelphia. Mr.
Henry, joint manager with Mr. Hallam, is now in town raising
some theatrical troops for the company, at handsome
salaries. --Mr. Hallam, at the beginning of the war, having
an intimation from Congress, that he and his company would
be dispensed with in America, went to the West Indies, where
he has since mostly remained; but the war being now over,
he has received a genteel invitation, to recompence him, in
some measure, for his honorary banishment.
