Theatre Rotal. — - On Saturday the Mammoth Minstrels repeated the programme of the previous evening to a crowded downstairs houee. The songs were again encored, and the dancing and nigger business elicited loud, applause. Undoubtedly the feature of the entertainment was the clog and reel dancing of Messrs Delowry, Craydon, and Holland. Nothing better has been witnessed in Christchurch, and the reception accorded them was well merited. We cannot omit mentioning the excellent acting of Mr Charleß Faning in the ''fooling" business. Taken altogether the entertainment provided by the Mammoth Minstrels is first-class. To-night an amateur dancing competition takes place for prizes given by Messrs Moore and Ashton.
