JOSEPH HABERSHAM, Pofl-Majier General. OtNERAL Post Office, "> Philadelphia, December 18, 1797; _) tuth&sti4thF New-Theatre, Dtcember n, 1797. THE Managers particularly request the con currence of the public in the abolition of a custom, which has hitherto obtained, of giving a way or disposing of RETURN CHECKS at the Theatre. They are aware that gentlemen are unconfeions of any wrong done to t.ie interest of thc institu tion by this pra&icc, from a general, though mis taken idea that Checks arc the representatives of a right to so many feats in tie Theatre, during an Evening's Entertainment, and transferable at will; when in faft, they were never intended as more than tokens by which the Door-keepers are enabled to afcettaia with the lead trouble to the parties, that they ibemfelvet have heen before in the i'heatre, or paid for their admidion. Independent of the injury the Managers sustain, such a prsftice encourages a croud of idle boys and other disorderly perfoni. to surround the doors of the Theatre, to the surruption of their moral* and the great annoyance of the Audience. It has also been the source of two evils of no in considerable magnitude; one is, that fomctimes very improper company is by these m«ens admit ted ; and the other, that owa { to Checks palling into dilhonell hands, they have been frequenaly coonterfeited to a large amount for the purpofesof Sale This statement will, it is refpcSfully hoped, in duce the PubSc to discourage such a traffic : and the exertions of the Managers will, if thus assisted, easily prove adequate to its entire abolition WIGNELL REINAGLE.
