“‘The Streets of New York’ will be kept before the public a little longer, and afterwards, we are told, the ‘Invisible Prince’ will again be made visible.  As the shoeblack, in the former piece, Jas. Budworth has made a decided hit, his imitations and other eccentricities appertaining to the ‘black ‘em’ persuasion, drawing forth the most earnest applause nightly. . . . Mrs. Wood will shortly appear.  The Olympic cannot do without her long.”
