At the Bacchus Theatre, on the Bay.  To-morrow evening,
being the 27th instant, and on Friday the 29th instant, will
be exhibited the celebrated Lecture on Hearts, which has
been performed in different parts of London, upwards of a
hundred successive evenings, to crowded audiences. 
By the noted Bayly, with sundry new performances by
dexterity of hand, particularly he will eat red hot coals,
out of a chaffing-dish, another person blowing them at the
same time;
  With an occasional epilogue, and the facetious humours of
Mr. Punch, and his artificial company of comedians, with a
court of thirty figures, or, Assembly of Maids and
Batchelors; and the performances of Punch's artificial
posture-master.
  With sundry entertainments too tedious to enumerate.  To
begin exactly at VII o'clock.  Boxes, 20s. Pit, 15s.
Gallery, 10s.
  Any set company may have a private performance, any other
evening in the week, sending only four hours notice.
  [hand pointing right] To be continued on Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday evenings.
