The Bcn CanspbeH

Goes on an excursion to Keokuk, on the fourt
of July. She will iearc the .evee at this city
at s o'clock in the moraing, and win return a
any time to suit the convenience OF the excur-
sonisss. The tickets will be sold at six dollars
per couple, for the trip, good both ways. The
Irepuia.;ou Of the Ben is sufficient guarantee
that everybody who goes will have a splendid
time. II. E. West, the steward, 10 perfect
prince Of caterers, and the boat will, through
his attention, be well stored with all the luxu-
ries the country affords. Our bellies and beaux
can find no pleasanter manner of passing the
day, than ride on SO 6ne craft, managed by
so skiilfuI and gentlemanly officers as the Ben.
Let US all 60. Persons wanting further infor-
nation call on VIM Endslcy, Esqr., the agent.
The Ben will not lie. We until after the arri-
val of the cars from Galesburg and Mt. Pleas
tB Marshal BartruH arrested a man at the
Barrett House Wednesday afternoon for Offering
to sell galvanized watch. Now If this was
followed up ty the arrest of every man guilty
of sharp practlces-of telling and enacting false
hoods for the benefit OF trade, would it not in
serfere very seriously with the course of busi /
ness: We opine it would-we are clearly cf I
opinion shat sundry persons" distingue" in
their personal ppesrance--enjoying an excel +
en-. reputation for shrewdness and possessed of
his worlds goods, would very suddenly find
themselves in the custody of the law. But who
$ SO green as not to know that criminal laws
ire made solely for .he poor and friendess: All
public functionaries understand this-they know
vho to arrest and who to let run. One man
,ets drunk and he is carried off to uuod in the
oughest manner-anoher does the same thing
nd police officer leads him home to the 'bo-
ON OF his family" and bids him 'good night"
a the blandest manner at the gate! A vulgar
ogue offers to sell brass watch and he is ar.
ested SO suddenly as almost to snatch him out
{ his boots. Had he money, friends or votes
is traffic in brass watches would be all sound
nd he commended as "smart."
