Just published, and to be sold, by John Dunlap, in Market-
street, Philadelphia, She Stoops to Conquer; or The Mistakes
of a Night. A Comedy. As it is acted at the Theatre-Royal
in Covent-Garden. Written by Doctor Goldsmith. This play is
truly comic; the humour is irrestible, and pleases in the
closet, as well as in the theatre. It was acted in New
York, a few nights ago, in a judicious and polite audience;
its success in England was unprecedented, and on this stage
unexampled. Doctor Goldsmith has been happy in the choice
of his characters, they are supported throughout with great
propriety, and the incidents that appear improbable, are, in
general, the natural effects of the thughless follies of a
young frolicksome country squire.
