The ORLEANS THEATRE. Below is COM
munication, from responsible gentleman, whose
name is at the call OF the manager A strong feel
ing exists in this part OF the city against the abuse
of which we have spoken 1t is apparent that
even the warm friends of the Opera are compelled
to admit it:
New ORLEANS, May al, 1851.
To the Editors of the Crescent:
DEMONSTRATING noticed the explanation given
by the manager of the Orleans Theatre, in regard
to the engagement OF the boxes for the representa-
ton of &c Lucretia Borgia," by Mile Parodi,
would state in reply to that, that Saturday
ing last, 18th instant, to the office of the
Theatre, wishing to engage box, when the agent
informed me that the tabieau would not be opened
until Monday morning at nine o'clock and pledged
me his word that not of the seats boges sho1a
be engaged until that time. | accordingly went
there on Monday morning at ME o'clock, and
with another gentleman waited there until quarter
past ten o'clock, before the tableau opened, when
we found that all the best seats had been secured
by some favored parties previous to that time not
| wihstandng their pledge to the contrary, and
when we asked for explanation conld get no
satisfactory reply
The managers plea of the boxes being engaged
by the year cannot hold good as it is well known
that they are only engaged for the nights of their
own regular epresentations-with which Parod s
performances have in way interfered.
