That abomination Jim Crow, which we hoped London had seen

the last of, has been revived at the Adelphi, by the return of Mr. RICE. We are as much at a loss as ever to account for the extraordinary popularity of this vulgar and humourless exhibition. The prettiness of the air, and the outre grotesqueness of the character, will account for a mode. rate degree of success ; but we incline to think that the ridicule of the " Niggers" was a principal cause of the Jim Crow mania in America. Truly, VESTRIS need not be disconcerted at her rejection by the patrons of" Jim Crow."
