At the French Academy in Lodge Alley, on Friday next, the
19th instant, will be danced, by five and twenty scholars of
the said Academy, a Ballet, respecting the return of peace,
and the coronation of the success of America.
Those who perform will be uniformly in shepherd's dress,
and execute one hundred and forty different figures.
There will also be decorations and transparent scenes
emblematical of the occasion.
The doors will be opened at five o'clock in the evening,
and the ballet will begin precisely at eight.
No person but the scholars of the Academy will be
permitted to dance until the ballet shall be over.
To prevent confusion there will be but a certain number of
tickets, and no money taken at the door.
The tickets are to be had at the Lodge; in Carter's Alley,
the fourth door from the west side of Second Street, and at
Francis Bailey's printing-office, at Yorick's Head, in
Market Street.
N.B. No admittance without tickets.
