We have the pleasure of announcing, that the building intended for the Theatre-Royal, is in such a state of extensive forwardness, as to insure the commencement of performance in a few days. And as we presume nothing will be withheld, that relates to the fitting-up of the House; and afterwards, to the giving of that full satisfaction the Public has a right to expect - so do we sincerely hope, that the patronage of the Public, will be as general and undeviating as the Company could desire.
