Feb'y 22. 16 2tpd .'A BBMARKnBLB DAN'Sa Donatoj tha one'laggcd dancer, is attraaiing much attentioii ia Londott} and a paper thara thn» desoribes hii feats:. *^Wh^Q SenOT Donato fint presents himitol^ hopp'ng on frwB the aide soene*, no pleaaurabla ‘imocion is feh; on tha contrary, the immediate feeling rather partakes of tke disagreeable. To S0e a nutD ^ the very prime cf life, with ova leg and s^mDp without support, ooming forward, sipi* liog and offering to oo is a state ot mutilatioa what fuwmale daooers, j[.c> fjct and whole, of the greatest art and experienof, ever could do—nrame. ly, aff.>rd unqualified gratifioaaon—seems to shook rne’s-delioaoy, no lees thaa mook bis credulity. Senor Donato, boWt^er, enlists ;our sympathiea prrtty well before'you have finished inapeoting nim. By hii extraordinary bounds'and^iirouettes on kis entianoe, he fixes jour attention in a mi« jMBt, «nd jou are «s£oaifehed at beho’dicg a dan. *>—isniiliLilijiig on cnn leg w^B^' jou eaunot re- monbeir aay proFhiCT t T*rpAi«lkov«aa art hayisg aaoomplished on two legs. Nor when as. tonisfam«nt has passed off is jour interest in Senor* Donato ezhamted. On the contrary, you mo something to be pleased with in his p^ormance every moment, until at last you acknowledge that he is not only one of the most surprising danoer yon ever beheld, but one the most engagiog} and such is th« case. • A perS*)n may smile at hearing the word ^graceful’ used in speaking ot a ore*le^ged dancer, but if ever tbe term were api licalle to a male Terpeichore&D artist., it is to tiunor Danato, whose motionn, actions, gestures and general d portment are instinct with that natural ease and prcpriety which are the essentials of grace. In short, the fact of Senor Donato having but one leg is soon forgotten by the ST'eotatorS, and their sjmpa'hies are enchained'in fcllowing bis marvellous teats of ag'Uty and science; and these are by n'> means easy to describe. Senor Donato enters boundiog ^ the stage to'the tune of some Spanish danoe. He accompanies the tune with tne castanets, whl0h he plajs with mere ooqsura>jaa^e skill than any one we ever he&rd. This maybe a tr fie, but it is a great gain for him His pirouettes are male with incomparable ease, and the dexterous manner in waich he swings his body round, peifjrming -two revolu. tions, is beyond all belief. Amoog the most difficult f^ats he pertorois is placing a csstanet on the ground with his right hand, at right angles to his body, and taking it up with his left hand without bending his leg all the time. The prac. titioners in gymnastics will nnderstand the diA. ‘ culty of achieving this feat $ta^ ding nn two l^g». That part of Senor Donato’s performance, bow. ever, which engage^ moat attention and creates the grea*.est excitemcnt, is the' cloak dance. How the dancer flings the cloak around him, making it assume all sorts ot fanciful hbapes— now olotbing his bodj^ wita it, transtorm'ng it, as it were, into a sea shell; now waving the mantle over him like a bannpy; and now chitnging it into a floating oloudland, making it descend like a otist around bi&*—mui-t scef to be mderrtood- ' hicougb, k t us* hope, I. v - eec saifl to fhow that Spoot Doauto im oae of tbe m >at r- markable per* f rm«ia cf this or any ag ; and tbai London is about to do hb talcots full justice, following the example of maay of tbe towns and cities of tbe continent, is evident from the crowds that atitud Covent Garden nightly, and :rom th'^ immense enthusiasm his perform ado 3 creates liOUTHEElf PUBLiCATlUl«8.
