The langhable little campaign between the news
boys and the silly penny press, goes swinmingly
Yesterday, at the rising of the the spires Of
Brooklyn, or the growing Of the gallant cocks on
Long Island, the newsboys made their usual appear
ances at the penny newspaper Offices in Canting-
House Square, but according to the mighty ukass OF
the preceding Saturday, not paper be got for
love money.
The effect Of this prescription by the penny press
has been, the FIRST day, something curious and phi
losophical. At one fell swoop the penny press has
lost circulation Of 1900 papers, il not 1900
in al. This loss, as far IS We Can ascertain today
IL sustained by the gallant penny circulation in some
thing like the following proportion
o. THE wAR-DEcREAsE OF CALCULATIONS.
D.ps,sh newspaper copies s sSSS
s.s do 5000
Aggregate decrease first day, 1850
To make up for this decrease, the following num-
Der Of subscribers have called at their several
Offices to procure papers,
At the Dispstch Office 50

Nett decrease on the srst day. Ai4O
This decrease Of l4,l4O papers, may be considered
fair average and estimate Of the first days war
sAbout hundred and thirty news boys, thus cast
Oh from certain amount Of business, on which they
and their poor relations depended for their daily
bread, must Of their surplus activity to
something. Accordingly we fnd that in proportion
to the decrease Of the penny press does the increase
Of the circulation of the Herald take place. The
Herald being Of the principal papers that would
net eater the silly combination to deprive six hun
dred poor persons Of their daily bread, in time Of
great stasnaton Of business, begins in day, to
feel the effects Of the change by rapid increase Of
its issues. On q moderate calculation, the average
increase Of circulation yesterday, may be put
1850 papers, and the table at the head Of this journal
will therefore be altered 50 as to correspond with
the following
Former eiresl.son Of the Herald, al,.ss
Average circulation to day, 1880
If the penny press continues to act their Solo
mon-like ukase, we shall probably realise clear ad
dition Of 600 5000 to issues in less than
ten days. Sometimes we are afraid that they will
abandon their agreenent, but fact gives hope
that they will adhere to il. u 10 well known that
neither Of the penny papers make any money BY the
receipts their circulation alone On every single
paper which the Sua issues, there a dead loss Of
Attraction Of cent. The oaly means Of supporting
the larger sheets Of the penny press il furnished by
Ac cash advertising. Heretofore, the San has en-
joyed the most Of this class Of cash advertising-
but Of late the Herald has attracted by its great
circulation, much Of this business that the pro-
pretors Of the Sun found necessary curail their
circulaties IN order "a dianish their expenses In
this attempt to grasp at too much, they will lose
what they have, like the dog crossing the stream
with fat bose in his mouth. As soon a. the public
perceive that the Sun losing ts circulation by ts
avaricoss measures, the loss Of the advertisements
will soon follow. Till then well whistle "Over
the hills and far away"
Bat This is NOT all The penny press, each Of them,
issue a weekly paper Saturday. These Saturday
or weekly papers are not made exclusive, because
forsooth, little money 10 made by them, each
the circulation. The newsboys may have as many
ofthese Saturday or weekly papers a. they choose
but will they1 We do not believe they will, and
we think they wosld act only in self defence, IL
these little fellows we're to hold meeting, pass
solutions and bind the whole fraternity not to take
single weekly paper from the Offices that refused
10 sell them their daily papers. This would bring
the penny press to their senses they did not, who
earesi The aewsboys can take greater quantity Of
the Weekly Heralds. II Is an i'll wind that blows
scooiy Ecod-and this movement Of the penny press
not csiy begins the decline and fair OF those
existing, but i opens wide field for new ecmpsti-
torst come into the market and to avail themselves
OF the present system Of organization among the
newsboys to establish both fame and fortune.
Today more amusing events will take place. Let
the newsbeys stick to right princip behave de.
cen,ly-make no riot-and they will have moral as
well as personal and pecuniary triumph. Hurrshl
Tor the little rsscals Of pewsboys Like all Sinners
they will become saints by persecution Wash your
hands and faces, my chaps, and go ahead-,o virtue
and victory. t..N
