To the public.  At the assembly-room, on Thursday, the 27 of
December, (being two days after Christmas) Mr. Gualdo will
direct a concert of vocal and instrumental music, in which
not only new songs and selected pieces of music will be
performed, but also solos and concertos on different
instruments, the favourite mandolino not excepted.  The
concert will begin precisely at half after six o'clock.
  At the request of several gentlemen and ladies, Mr.
Gualdo, after the concert, will have the room put in order
for a ball, likewise there will be a genteel refreshment
laid out in the upper room for those ladies and gentlemen
who shall chuse to dance, or remain to see the ball.  For
the ball he has composed six new minuets, with proper
cadence for dancing, and he flatters himself they will be
favourably received.

Gualdo's, in Norris's Alley, of the waiter of the London
coffee-house, and of the waiter of Mr. Duff's Tavern, in

each person.
