The detectives have succeeded in
digging up the real men who assaulted
and rosbed express messenger Brady at
basement No. Is Madison street. We
give the real names and description of
the robbers, the first two OF whom are
well known professionals who have been
" working in the different cities of the
West and South. Two other men are
known to have been implicated in the
robbery, but for obvious reasons we sup
press all information as to them:
Edward H. johnson, thirty.fve years
old, about 5 feet s inches high. square
built, weighs $50 pounds; sandy hair and
chin whiskers, ford complexion and
grey eyes; may have since shaved his
face; recently has been plying the Mis-
sissippi river in a skif, fishing and catch
ing logs; has served a term in Missouri
penitentiary.
Mack Tor Maxi Morris, about so years
old, 5 feet 6 inches high, grey hair and
whiskers, (whiskers probably off now
weighs 40 pounds; has pleasant address.
John Woods, % years old, 5 feet 10
inches high, (young looking 70: his age)
light hair, smoothe face, hollow cheeks,
weak looking eyes, high bridged nose
looks like skin is drawn tight across it,
face indicates exposure to the weather;
originally from Byhalis, Miss.

selling prize candy packages, and, by
way OF inducement, inform them that
the package is worth a dollar and a
quarter, but that they will give a dollar
and a hall for the prize contained
therein; but no prize being found, the
candy butcher robs the traveller of the
amount. Selling news and candy on
trains is let out by contract, but railroad
authorities should be held responsible
for permitting the swindling and robbing
of passengers. On many roads all this
is prohibited, aud all honorable railroad
men condemn the practice. Yet it is
carried on on all the roads centering in
Memphis. We will refer to this matter
again ere long.

Music is becoming more and more the
companion of our everyday life. We
hear so much Of it we cannot help grow
ing a little critical. 1t was then wise in
Mr.. Briggs to secure, for his last concert,
the best talent the country afforded. To
scatter millions of dollars to the accom-
paniment of music like that of Gilmore's
great band, is a feat that few people be-
sides Mr. Briggs have ever attempted.
But he will do that very thing on the 9th
of February. For full information APP
ply to G. Il. Samuel, No. G West Court
street, Memphis.

Had Leisure.

"If | had leisure, | would repair that
weak place in my fence" said farmer.
He had none, however. and while drink

broke in and injured prime piece of
corn. He had leisure then to repair his
fence, but it did not bring back his corn

did not find time, and when his shop

pay less attention to the matter than
you do now. The thing lacking with

Andy Johnson and Jay Cooke.

Correspondence Missouri Republican
at this junction it occurred to me to
ask Mr.. johnson how he was getting
along with Jay Cooke & CO., if it would
moi sbe tresspassing upon his private
affairs
at is no trespass upon my private
affairs For you to ask that question" he
replied. 81 had seventy-one thousand
dollars, the accumulations of my life
time, in Henry D.. Cookies bank in
Washington, and the receiver has thus
far been able to pay depositors fifty
cents on the dollar My main object in
going to Washington at this time is to
stir those fellows up and see if the vic
tins of Jay Cooke & Co. can not get a
little more than half of what belongs to
them. / shall try to make it lively for
that concern in one way or another. j

FROM tne new Iork LINES
Few of our readers are probably
aware Of the immense extent to which
the poor in this city make use of loans
from the pawnbrokers' shops. There
are in New York and Brooklyn some
400 Of these, and in Jersey City and
Hoboken sixty. They advance to the
poor during each year some $4,000, 900.
These loans are usually for thirty days,
and the rate of interest is from eight to
twenty per cent. per month. The arti-
Gle pledged for the loan is usually three
times the value Of the sum lent, and is
often never redeemed, owing to the dis
tress or poverty of the person borrow
ing. If the interest is from eight to
ten per cent. per month, it will be seen
that the .pawnbrokers make some hun
dred per cent on their loans, or abou,
four millions annually from the poor
and it is not improbable they get as
much more from the sale of the arti
cles pawped. aH ~ ns 81
