An Injunction on Street Ballads.

~-N~@~NNN-N'
From the Times.
No one who has not wandered around the
streets of great city can have any idea of the
immensity of the business which Is transacted
in it. Yet that immensty is shown sometimes
more plainly in the smaller business affairs than
in the greater Ones Their infinite variety and
quantity, if the details could be brought together,
would show very strangely, sometimes, how
much great city does.
Take, for instance, the various traffics which
are carried on in the streets, and at the stands
on the sidewalks. How much ice.cream is
handed out IN penny glasses to the boys in the
streets in the course OF a summer? If Il was all
brought together it would form quite respect
able hill and the lemonade would form a size
able brook TO run down ii. The piles OF apples
and other fruits that are sold from the stands,
the heaps of newspapers which every morning
appear and disappear on the corners OF the
streets, the raZOrstrOps, the rat-traps tie baked
apples, the hot-corn andI the waffles, if one
could only by some means arrive with accuracy
at the quantity, would amaze one, almost as
one is amazed at the distances OF astronomy
and the periods OF geology.
We were led into this thouGht by noticing
the details of lawsuit which we published
recently. Our readers have all often noticed
the ballads which ara sold in the streets. long
rows of which hang from every railing almost
in the lower part of the city during the business
hours Of the day.
The variety OF them is very great and II one
were to study them be would find that they
produce not only the feelings and sentiments
which touch the popular heart at all times, but
that they represent also picture of daily life,
and that everything which by turns interests
the public finds an expression in these fluttering
leaves along the sidewalk.
Some years ago their Importance was thought
enough to warrant the making full collection
of them for the British Musenm and we pre-.
sumo they are not overlooked by our own col.
lectors of curiosities In after years collection
of them can hardly fail to be of great interest
and even value. We never saw anybody buy
one. we hardly ever saw any one stop TO cast q
glance at one, and yet they must be sold in
great numbers, for we see them continually
renewed and fresh in appearance, notwithstand
ing that they hutter in every wind and meet al
the dust and mud OF the street. This suit Il
also proof on that point, II any were wanting
II appears that Root Il Cady, the music pub
fishers in Chicago, found that among these in
habitants OF the railings were several songs TO
which they had copyrights, upon which thes
publications had inringed. Not disdain

The English Dread of "AmericanIzIng'
Influence,


From the Tribune.
General Neal Dows presence at the late re-
form demonstration in Glasgow has been
cause of offense to certain parties in England,
who profess to fear that advantage will be
taken of the circumstance by the Tories to try
and persuade the British public that the real
object of John Bright and his coadjutors in
their work of Parliamentary reform is to
"Americanize" British institutions. Now this
dread of the so-called Americanizing influence
on the part of men calling themselves Liberals
is simply an absurdity. England might come to
a much worse pass than to be assimilated to
the United States in her political institutions.
On the showing of the Liberals themselves, she
certainly L as not much to boast of in the
practical working of her present Constitution;
and If the excellence of form of government
is to be judged of by the fruits of that Gov
ernment IN the welfare and happiness OF the
people, we need not fear comparison with the
old country.
The fact is, England, if we are to judge by the
signs of the times, will never know peace again
until she becomes Americanized in one very i'm
portant respect; that is, until justice shall be
done to the bulk of her people, now suffering
severely under the operation of partial and un-
righteous laws. The English people, it is well
known, are strongly attached to monarchy, and
we are not aware that any one desires to disturb
them in their choice; at any rate, the United
States has no political propaganda. Let
England continue TO enjoys her political institu-
tions; but at the same tine let the men who
are laboring to reform the crying abuses and
wrongs of which the people justly complain,
those institutions until at least they shall have
carried their point,

We want more Reagans in Texas, and every
where else throughout the late slave States.
Reagan was a Rebel, and Mr.. Davis Postmas-
ter-General; but Notwithstanding the diabolical
influences and powers, and the extreme dangers
by which he is girt in Texas, there is nobody
who is speaking and writing more ceurageously
than he in support of impartial suffrage and
equality before the law without regard to COM
plexion. If there were five hundred bold and
honest men like MIR. Reagan in his State, there
would soon be an end of the Internal legislation
by which that State is cursed and kept out of
the Union. 1t is because such men are pain
fully rare that reconstruction goes on so lamely.
Few as they are, and fewer as they have become
under the dem0ralizlng temptations of the
Presidential ''polcy," they are entitled TO the
waTmest encouragement, such as q firm, united
and loyal North cannot fail to afford them. In
constant peril of life, the Southern loyalists
are, and must be, If they are to depend upon
Andrew Johnsons mere mockery of protection,
they have nothing to rely upon save an honest,
patriotic, and intelligent Congress; for Congress
has now become their sole efficient safeguard;
The North owes these persecuted men great
debt, and one way of paying 1t is to elect truSI'
worthy candidates to office.
It's plain question of demand and supply
More Reagans are wanted. How are tney 10 pc

have conquered in vain-the real victory is with
Rebellion. But more than this. AS people,
we should be noble, not mean; chivalrous, not
base; true and faithful, not false and treache-
rous. Every vote for Fenton is a vote to make
more Reagans in the South, and to protect them
subsequently, while every vote for Holman Is

their homes. If we do not stand by the cause

Great Burglary at Da Qaoln, III.
Form the Du Qusin Recorder 9Th


Our city was thrown into an intense ex-
citement last Friday morning, on Learnt ng
that the store Of Messrs. G. 8. Smith &
20. had teen entered during the night, the
iron safe broken open and robbed of its en-
tiro contents, which werc in government
bonds, drafts and currency, $27,0l62t-
So shrewdly and quietly had the burga ars
executed this robbery that nothing was
known Of it until one Of the firm went to
open the store in the morning prepare tory
for the business Of the day. Telegrama
were sent ur and down the illinois Central
Railroad, but nothing could be learned
Parties were sent oat on the trains north
and south, but With no avail. At last sus
picion fell upon two men WHO had taken
supper at the Sanders House the night
before. 1t became evident that they had
taken southwestern direction, and two
mouated men started in pursuit. In the
afternoon information from down the rail-
road VAS received that three suspicious
looking characters, with valise IN hand, had
BEEN seen on foot making their way toward
Murphysboro, and two other mounted men
immediately started IN pursuit.
When they reached that CITY they found
that the three men had left in hack that
day Saturday. for the Mississippi river,
and immediately hastened after them. Havs:
ing reached what is called the Mississippi
Bottom, about twelve miles from Murphys-
boro, and three from the river, they over
took the subjects Of their pursuit. walking
slowly along by the aforesaid hack, having
got out OF the hack on account Of the bad
condition Of the road. So unsuspectingy
did the pursuers come upon them that the
burglars we're taken completely by surprise,
and to resist was utterly impossible. Find

suers they surrendered instanter. They
