This youno-Lady made her firft public appearancelast year at Freemasons' Hall ; where an uncommonly fine voice , with the advantage of considerable taste and powers , gained her most distinguished applause .
The Academy of Ancient Music , we believe , exhibited Miss Lease's vocal talents with great effeft ; it is , therefore , not surprising that she should have been received on the stage with the warmest plaudits . Those apprehensions which at first evidentl y oppress'd her were soon removed , and she performed the difficult character of Rosetta with more sprightliness and effedt than we generallperceive at a first
y appearance . A short acquaintance with the stage will , we have , no . doubt , give Miss Leake considerable ' celebrity as an actress . She is , it is said , the Pupil of Dr . Arnold , whose acknowledged abilities , will derive great credit from the performance of this young Lady .
