“Those of our readers who have never passed ‘Ten Nights in a Bar-room,’ can enlighten themselves on that subject by visiting Barnum’s Museum, where the double-distilled moral drama of that name is now offered to the patrons of the establishment. ‘Don’t take a shingle off a man’s roof,’ but spend an evening or two with the company who officiate for ‘Ten Nights in a Bar-room.’”
