The local columns of the Chicago papers are daily filled with accounts of burglaries and rarious other Zcrimea committed the night before. The :,Tint$ of yesterday gives fourteen different attempts at the crime of burglary, in some instunoe successful, committed within a day or two, and yet in not one of them was an Arrest made.' The amount of property stolen by burglars within tho last three 4 weeks, it is aaid would amount to several thousand dollars, and yet not one cent has ,beea..recovered back through the agency Vcf the police. . : This is a sad state of affairs in such a city 6 4 Chicago. But a few weeks since three of her officials were detected, convicted and. committed to bridewell for using their ' oftloial positions to fraudulently obtain money from the frail Cyprians of tho City. .Again a Physician to one of the City Hos i pitala was found guilty of selling the dead bodies of the poor patients who had died tinder his treatment; and again on the Sab bath day the Mayor is ostentatiously found playing God-Father at the baptism of a confessedly illegitimate child, and pomp , ously christening it with his own name. This is the reformatory republican rule under whose guardianship the morals and . property of the people of Chicago are . placed; and yet as things go on there, ' here . is but little hope of a change, for each day as we, receive the papers from Chicago, the catalogue of crimes, from murder to pettit- larceny is shown to be on the increase. - Yet "Long John" is a pattern Mayor, i and his police force the most energetic . -and efficient according to his own paper JanesviUe Dem.

The Two Dollar Magazine contained 61 pa ges, the Lady's Book 100. Twenty-four more engravings, twenty six more articles, and thirty-six more pages, nearly double tbe quantity. The lowest club Iirlceof the Two Dollar Magazine- is $1,25 j owest club price of Lady' Book $1,67, only 4Z cents aiiierence in tne price, which is three and a half cents on each number, and for that am (three ana a nair cents, you receive twenty-six more articles, twenty-four more engravings, and thirty-six more pages month lycertainly a very cheap three and a half cents' worth.
