MYERS OPERA HOUSE.
The jolly minstrel boys. with their capital sg-
glon1eration Of choice bits OF fun, are not Tor
gotten this week. The Arlington, Cotton d hen-
BE Company appeared before tine audience
last evening, and gave to that audience specl-
men Of refined and artistic m1nstre1sy such as
should receive the hea1tiest appreciation and
support. The great character specialist, MI,
burn, is one Of the leading attractions, but
the fine quartette and the admirable
List Of comic sketches are worthy Of
boast OF burnt cork entertainments second to
none in America, and the game is true now at
Myers Opera House.
