“If Mr. Bryant would be a little careful about his jests, the negro minstrel entertainment that he gives would be perfection in this line. He leads a wonderful company, and his auditors are made so comfortable with laughter that they may be said to ‘bid farewell to every fear, and wipe their weeping eyes.”
