The Proprietors of the New Theatre Royal in Covent
Garden beg leave.again ,nose respedfully to address there-
serves to the Public. by whose judgment they are sensible-
they ought in every thing within their power to be guided.
They presume to think that the present regulation of he
prices of admission will, on due consideration, he found to be •
supported by every argument of reason and justice, and ere
happy to see that it-meets with the approval-of a very large
majority of the community. The Proprietors are tot-airn-
,ing at wealth and exorbitant gain, they are merely h,>bour-'
ing for a fair subsistence. 1 t has been authoritatively andea-
tisfaaorily proved, after the fullest and Most impartial ip -
vestigation, that the a‘leption of the former pricee would
subject them to a certain loss of three quarters per cent. r, r
annum, on their capital t but some persons have sad that
this evil might be obviated by a system oistrider economy :
if the Proprietors in the ereelion of a Ne4v The acre, have
Tred on the side of expence, it has. been. first ---frornian ho- -
i*seclesire to consult the accommodation, and enstu2,the
safely, of all who resort to secondly, (as the Putrhc
11.0 a;imamright to expel} they should), to collect such Pee-
tete s, fl'A display suet: Scenery, Dresses, Decorations,
Pas might best contribute to render the exhibitions of the
_rma worthy of a critical and enlightened People, -Under
;what heads can a severer economy he introduced ? The Ac-
, tars and Actresses cannot be expected to give their laboites for
?' smaller coMpenzation than/hey received in theoldTheetre,
Sr than they car. receive in 'Theatres out of Lot'elon; "and 'the
]Proprietors have not hitherto been able to itLiertake to

Form an item of theiecalettlated future expenditure. In the
4‘eneill, Dresses, Decoratiotis, Lighting, &c. of which every
,?rtiele is dilly increasing in price, all reduaion of expence
evidently imptadicable. The undisguised truth is, that,
Been at the present prices, the necessity the `Proprietors are
.itider of providing every 'thing new ;tit almost every repre-
sentation will, with tin-, closest economY; for some years
tenally !educe, it not totelly absorb their profit's.,
The Proprietors hope the> alt ill not be ,theught intrusive
for again appealing to the reason and. justice of the frequen-
ters of the Theatre, to save allwheare concerned in it from
Utter ruin. They trust that they shall not be deappoieted
