Almost every place OF amusement in the city was
crYdcd every night last week; and on Friday night o.
pecMiy when New York ought have been recovering
from its headache after the dissipation New Years
day, the Jam that hundreds OF pcope
were turned away from every theatre and mnst9i hale
IN the city and the receipts by far the largest OF
The We congratulate Tho managers opoa
this pleasant state II anirs and The public upon the
prosperous condition Of III finances We shal expect 70
audiences have improved We have patience and No
mercy for mansrcrs who become pampcrcd with pros
pory grow careless Of taking pains 70 please
poblc which Is so easily grstied. The fact Of the
case is managers and actors this country have
altogether too easy times Of ~ They arc accustomed
only applause and the beautiful and noble art Of hi
Sng has been totally forgotten among u.s. We uus, Eta
to this art revived and udciously practiscd IN
tho undoubted right Of actor be appIsuded hs
does well Il Is also the undoubted right Of che audi
TO hiss performer ir he does badly Hitherto only
the right Of tho actor be appaudsd has beeu recoe-
nizcd and acknowledged Tho right u the audience
now he asserted and exercised.
As for the managers there considerable resesms
FOR them to make, and that they have no
longer az poverty, shall expect thess
reforms naugursted We rccc 70 say that the scenery
Of almost every theatre tbs city almost uoexcspoo
able The accommodations for the public, however, are
open criticism. A. NIbo's Garden iron fence
placed the lobby that the audiences must leave tn
theatre they enter II. IN single nc. This Is neon
veuisnt and absurd n Manager wheacy viii step Into
valsck's or tho Winter Garden he win 900 how iron
ratings should he managed. Then, again, tho
private boxes Al several Of our theatres arc
cold and damp And people are induced pay extra prices
fovthe sake Of catching dphcria In almost all she
theatres the orchestra chairs closely crowded
ethor that ladies' are ruined and persons PASS
and repass only ny kicking zach others shns and tread
ina on each Others toes in manner more lively thS
agreeable arty ccrts extra FOR discomfort should b
,be advertisement for orchestra chairs We aAvise the
onasers 10 make their crchesras larger or 70
half the in tho parquet for II seems that pcopo
,sl have reserved seats nowadays unless those mai
..rcea drive them out OF the notion altogether.
An Of the theatres except Nibos have change ofpro
gramme this wcck. AZ Nibos the spectacular buresqus
o. nFsust and Marguerite still keeps The stage, but
not doing as wsl expected, and s really beau
t,ral scenery aud wonderful mechanical cnscls de- -
The reason Of this evidently that the dialogue rs very
badly written up, and th,s Mr. j. p Roberts, gives VERY
unsatisfactory rendition q shs psFt o. Mcpss,ophses.
