At the French Academy in Lodge-Alley, on Friday next, the
19th instant, will be Danced, by 25 scholars of the said
Academy, a Ballet representing the Return of Peace, and the
Coronation of the Success of America. Those who perform
will be uniformly in shepherd's dress, and execute 140
different figures. There will also be decorations and
transparent fancy [?] emblematic to the occasion. The doors
will be opened at 5 o'clock in the evening, and the ballet
will begin precisely at 8. No person but the scholars of
the academy will be permitted to dance until the Ballet
