“J. H. Milburn, who is the central figure of attraction, has sung several new songs, which have met with favor. This gentleman’s power of pleasing appears to increase with his acquaintance with the audiences.” “Master Barney appeared in a new entertainment introducing his Dutch songs with rapid changes of costume, which are very effective.”
