TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. ~
From your well known and uniform advocacy Of
the establishment of Italian opera in this city upon
permanent and popular basis, it is evident that
the objections in your valuable paper Of Tuesday,
to the location selected for the proposed Academy
of Music were not dictated by any desire to throw
obstacles OF frivolous nature in the way. It
is always easier to tear down than to build up;
and opera houses do not build themselves, it ia
necessary to offer some inducements to those who
are willing to come forward and risk their money
in enterprises of this kind
In q house like the Astor Place, containing, ex-
elusive of the gallery, less than 1000 good seats.
1t was an Objectionable feature to give over 0 or
nearly ofthe best seats to the subscribers,
anu whicn does rot apply to house that will hold
from 1000 to 5000 persons Besides according to
the present pan the stockholders are excluded from
securing seats in the proscenium boxes or in boxes
having saloons attached. Neither will they take
seats except IN alternate sections of the house,
which will give them no other advantage over the
public than that OF having fixed and permanent
location for the season; and when we reflect that
the shareholders will occupy but $50 seats out Of
1900, it is presumed that the public will not views
with an unfavorable eye this small concession. in
order to secure the establishment of q peoples
opera
With regard to the location, it is considered by
those who have looked into the matter seriously az
of, if not the very best, that can be found The
great majority of the resident opera goers live on
line with and above the present site; great NUM-
Der of our principal hotels clustered about this

easily reached by omnibuses in Broadway. and rail-
way by the Fourth avenue, and is only three mi
nutes farther off from the lower parts of the city
than the present Astor Place OPERA which is gene.
rally acknowledged to be excellent location.
Fourteenth street is 100 feet wide, and a covered
way, for carriages, will be erected, to enable ladies'
to get out and in to their carriages under shelter
from the weather, necessary in our climate. Irv-
ing Place is Of the most quiet and respectable
streets in the cty and this leads to speak Of tho
disadvantages of Broadway, especially for Italian
opera The incessant noise of passing vehicles, and
the difficulty of approaching the house with private
carriages, with comfort and safety, objections
which can never be removed; besides, the difference
ofcost between the present location and the same
quantity of land on Broadway, would of itself be-
sufficient to prevent the house from being built, and
would exceed the amount of capital (S300, 030) au-
thorized by the charter. A SUBSCRIBER.
