Negro MinstreIy's Revival.

Philadelphia Record; The disappear
ance Of the Fashioned, Legitimate
minstrel troupe has been a matter OF
sincere regret to old New Iorkers-for
they acknowledge being vulgar enough
to prefer a good laugh with the minstrels
10 being bored half to death in a modern
French drama. The successive deaths Of
Dan Bryant, Nelse Seymour, and Billy
Barkus removed the monarchs of min
strelsy, but their successors will be
royalty welcomed as soon as they prove
their right to the throne. This week
Thatcher d Primrose's negro minstrels
have been mt Niblos, in New York, and
the house has been packed rs il never
has been before. Thoy literally supply
n long-felt want" and when they re
turn later in the season will have no
empty seats In their audience. Ever
since the Christys opened at Mechanics
Hall, on Broadway, near Broome-now
some forty years ago-New York has had
n liberal patronage for negro melodies
and their legitimate accompaniment Of
genuine southern repartee and dance.
Bnt when the variety element, with its

drew lis patronage. A revival of the
