It is Said that there is a want of harmony at
present between thtt Managers of Covent Garden
Theatre and Miss M. raze. The cause is stated
to be as follews :—She was asked to play the
countess, in Figaro, which part she had performed
twice last year, but refused, wishing rather to
perform that of Susan. Miss PATON, it Seems,
with ready zeal, offered to play both characters
with Miss TREE alternately, but this proposition
also was declined. We should be sorry to find
that Miss M.TREE, who is a good actress, as well
as a good singer, and who is much esteemed in
private life, should listen to ill-advisers who are
too often found disturbing ,theatrical harmony..._
Something of the same kind is said to exist be-
tween the Managers and Mr. IVIACREADY. Per-
formers should consider that they receive liberal
salaries, while the Managers are at a certain ex-
pence, and exposed to all the caprices of public
taste.

' Miss S. BOOTH has accepted an engagement at
he Manchester Theatre.
