A STATEMENT
Every seat in Trpler Hall is numbered, and

of seats beside those set aside for the Press is
| 3,24O instead of $500, as has been enormously
stated Not single ticket will be issued for any

each seat acas numbered the best seats woud'be
secured by spectators, and sold Mt exorbltant
prices, therefore the public would gain nothing
but would rather lose, while noisy spectators
would create confusion and be the only gainers

sire to serve the public; I hope also to secure
fair compensation for my own risk, outlay, expense
aud anxiety in engaging Mdle. LIND, and thlnk
the great majority Of the admirers OF her gehius'
are willing should do So But am quite aware
that my future prosperity must in great measure
depend on my success in satisfying the public In
the MANAGEMENT of these Concerto, and no hon.
orabo effort shall be wanting on my part to secure
that end But most of the complaints found In
public journals in relation to the management oil
