“The Minstrels that hold forth at the Fifth Avenue Opera House are meeting with a fair share of public patronage. The company is a very good one, the vocalism as well as the funny business being in the hands of old and practical performers. Henry Burchard, who commenced there last week, remains the current week. As a ventriloquist he is exceedingly clever; his comic imitations are also very laughable.”
