We are informed, that, until yes- terday morning, Madame Ronzi de Begnis was very confideut that she would be able to appear before her friends and the pablic on the an)pointed night: but, being disappointed in herexpectations,she choscrather to postpone her benefit, than to incur the tisk ofcensure by sanctioning the performance of La Donna del Lego in an im- p'erfect manner. Every eWort was made, byissuimg circular letters, to render the disappointmentas lile inconvenient as pssible to her friecnds.
