delphia; and this, with the other causes we have
mentioned, enables a great many theatres,
minstrel halls, and other establishments of like
character, to count on full houses nearly all the
year round. 1t is not at all probable that Phila-
delphia will ever support as many theatres as
New York, but we can support more than we
have IL they are placed in the right locations,
properly constructed, and managed with ability.
The old fashioned prejudice against the drama
is gradually wearing out, and the taste for 1t is
increasing. The theatres afford a kind of enter
