VIS TRAVBLI,BIt. Ano UT PARIS,

(No. XVIII.)

PARIS, _OCTbDER 91

The Theatres are 'among the boasts of Paris.
Like all its other wonders, always .excepting the
Louvre, they are most wonderful at a distance.
:Theatres require, perhaps, to -be purified once in
every half dozen years, by fire. In Paris) fires are
rare, arid the principal Theatres have unfortunately
escaped. their visitation for a considerable time.—
The result is, that they arc standing specimens of
the worst taste that ever lavished itseif in public-
' buildings, and standing with the eertaintv of hope-
less ugliness until:some coofiagra:ion takes them
in its way, and clears the ground fOr a pew experi-
ment on public patience. What is beyond cure, is
not worth cleanliness, and the maxim of a French
Infirmary, runs into easy adaptation- for a French
Theatre. The most inveteratesqualidness of a oconn-
tebank's booth in England, would he light and lustre
beside the majority of the Parisian play-houses ;
anti between the dinginess of the scenery,. the
dens of private boxes, the, black feature, and
wild eyes of the Parisians, the perpetual restless-
•ness, and the strange and wolfish clamour rising
through the twilight of the liouse, it would re-
quire but a small share of itnagioation to dream
oneself
,in a great menagerie. The French are,
beyond all question, inferior to us in the whole
arrangement, exterior and interior ; and Drury-
Lane or Covent-Garden, if they could be trans-
planted " with a Call" into Paris, would amaze'
the Great Nation with a display of syinmetry and
skill, of which they have no' model, perhaps no
idea. The first step under the portico betrays
.the whole. spirit of impropreetl'. In place of
the handsome and unincommoded enhance, the
amateur has to make his way through the benches
of a range of miserable shops, or the Mass of a
coneerzazione' of harlots and beggars, who keep
their station without fear of Ore gendarmerie : or
a groupe of politicians; wedged together round a
miserable lamp, and utterly incapable of being
removed. • The tickets are paid for at doors, which
are :um:times at the opposite side of the street.
A passage is then to be fought through the crowd
to a central aperture, by which the whole
colluvies of box, pit, and gallery pour in, and are -
mingled at once.- A second ticket is then given, and
the aspirant is directed to make his way'as it may
best please. Providence up or down stairs, back
oe forwards. There •is no .guidance in rail or re-
striction, seldom a notice on the walls, or one
legible only through the dirt of half a 'dozen
lustrums, and the wanderer. .may occupy him Self
with equal unproductiveness and assiduity for the -
first half hour of an interesting piece in exploring
his way through all the avenues of the house. If
by perseverance lie at last strikes upon the right
one, he is arrested in his full-speed by a voice .
from some grim nook, demanding his ticket.
Another is then. handed to hint, and after this
third change he enters without, as he may presume,
" let or hindrance,"—but full fruition_ is yet far
off. The English pit gives the idea of some li-
berty of approach to the stage, or the higher
agremens of the hoses. He finds himself in the
French pit either squeezed inflexibly close to the
roar of the orchestra, in the' parquet, or removed
to an almost viewless distance in the Aimphi-
theatre, or indeed with the mob in the dreary in-
terval between.
