ANOTHER BREAKDOWN AMONG THE SrooL-PIeEos
GASG-DRuRY IN BRooKLYN.-The decision OF
Judge Greenwood, of Brooklyn, that the indict-
ment against old Drury, "was incomplete, though
a queer de- sion for eminent jurist TO give, may
be considered another breakdown of one of the
props in the secret crusade carried by the Poscs
Gasetfs, and its stoolpgeon gang, against inno-
cent men in this neighborhood, for the last year or
two. The indictment was founded on mere stool
pigeon evidence, manufactured for the occasion,
all of which is well known to One-Eyed Thomp-
end the rest of the coterte Another of the P0-
lice Ga-ette cotGts has also run away, a Ia War
ner, TO avoid warrant for his arrest the charge
of being concerned in the robbery of the District
Attorneys Office, an offence which the gang at
tempted to fasten on Drury. We allude to Nj. T.
G. Stanley, who has gone of TO parts unknown
He was reporter and agent of Wilkes.
Thus, piece by piece, does the confederacy Of
stool-pigeons, whose organ is the Potice Gazette,
melt away before the progress Of truth and JUS
tice Their last effort ia to get their candidate for
District Attorney elected--the one they helped to
nominate at Tammany Hail. The wings are going
to put up for that office N. B. Blunt, respectable
and upright man and he will succeed against the
stool-pigeon party, and all their efforts.
The Jenny Lind Concert-Threc Dollars aud
more
Tia first of the second series of Lind concerts will
take place to- night, at Tripler Hall which will seat
four thousand and sixteen persons, according to one
com putafiop and two hundred more at another COM
puston, or about five thousand by the introduction
Of temporary seats. The postponement, though a So
rious ncop yenience TO strangers caused by the
desire of Jenny Lind herself, to have the stage
lsrged and not has been suggested that there could
not be tickets sold AZ fair prices The worst seats
those for which eight dollars charged the
chestra, and which will probably be occupied by the
promenade ticket holders.
Some editors, since proposed the three dollar
ticket system, have advocated high prices, and will
probably continue to do So till they know about
public opinion, and less about private interests at
work to keep up unnatural prices One of these bril-
liant luminaries Who in social affairs pleads for CON-
munity OF property and the least possible tax upon
the poor, goes in. pell NELL for making the tick
cts expensive to the people, and by way of showing
the Importance of helping spectators, intimstes
that paid fifteen dollars each, for tickets
in Europe Very well, perhaps did; but there
are spectators there, az well as here, and Mitch
ell, Sans, Crsmer, Beal aud Addison, julien,
aud other music publishers and Librarians in London,
can carry on speculation as well ~ any body in
Broadway. High prices were given in London for the
first concerts there and they have been here-only
that the Yankees have beaten all the lords and ladies
in the business, giving for single ticket S225, So3
and $3.50 to hear the inimtgble cdnatrce. This does
not alter the necessity Of carrying out Jenny Linda
own desires with respect to prices. She has d. and
tt says that she wishes all the people Of the UBted
States 10 hear her at reasonable rates But unless
Spectators put down this will be imposhiity
