In the Carolina Packet, Capt. Robson, from London, Mr.
Douglass, Manager of the American Company of Comedians is
returned, who, we hear, has brought over, at a great
expense, a most excellent set of scenes done by Mr. Dell,
principal scene painter to Covent-Garden house, and
collected some very eminent performers from both the
theatres in London, particularly in the Singing-Way, so that
the English Comic Opera, a species of entertainment that has
never yet appeared properly on this side the water, is
likely to be performed here this winter to great advantage.
