astonishment of Mr. KRAN and his friends, that Gen-
tleman received the following reply, which we pub-
lish as a curiosity-; convinced, as we are, that our
Readers will agree with us in pronouncing it the only
place in the kingdom, where the Manager of a small
country Theatre, which will not hold above 1.40$
would think proper to refuse such a spontaneous
offer from the first Tragedian of the day. What recs.
dr, this more surprising is, that the Arundel Com-
pany have actually, as we are informed, been I trying
tofbur and pm pound houses :
