The DISTREST THEATRE.[The amujimintt of the Theatre 'werefame timeflnct

\u25a0prohibit-: diuitbu: the lirrr.s of th* c'lty ofCharles-ton, by an aEI of the, Legjlature of the fate cjSouth-Carolina, In obedience to this ast all fuh-

fequent Dramatic exhibitibr.s ivere removed to at

obscure bui'ding in the city Liberties, called Har-mony Hall. ThefollowingJlanzas owetbeiorigin to 'he above ediEl.]TJEALTH to the Mule !?and fill tbeglafsJL JL Heaven grant her soon some better placeThan earthen floor and fabric mean,Where disappointment ihades the sceneThere as I by rumour led,3 figh'd, and almost wiih'd her dead ;Her visage ftain'd with many a tear,No Hallam and no Wignell here !

But what could all their art attain??When pointed laws the ft.i,ge retrainThe prudent Mute obedience paysTo sleepy 'squires, that damn all plays.

- ,Like thieves they hang beyond the town,They {hove her off?to please the gown j?Tl)o' Rome and Athens own'd it true,The itage might m'end our morals too«

See, Mopfus all the evening fitsO'er bottled beer, that drowns his wits ;Were Plays allow'd, he might at leastElulh?and no longer a£t the beast.

See, Marcia, now from guardian free,Retailing scandal o'er her tea :Might ihe not come, nor danger fearFrom Hamlet's sigh, or Juliet's tear.

The worlibut aEls tbe Players'" part*?(So fays the motto of their art)That world in vice great lengths is goneThat fears to fee its pidlure drawn.

Mere Vulgar a&ors ne'er can please;The flreets supply enough of these ;And what can wit or beauty gainWhen ileepy duilnefs joins their train ?

A State betrays a homely taftc,By which the stage is thus difgrac'd,Where, dreft in all the flowers of speech,True virtue might her precepts teach.Let but a dancing bear arrive,A pig, that counts you four or five?And Cato, with his moral strainShall strive to mend the town in vain.
