POPULAR ArtIUSEIIIEN Ts.
The public is a fickle animal, and, in seek•
ing for amusement, it is governed by no fixed
rules. In America, it is a pretty generally
admitted fact, that there is not enough of
amusement afforded to the popular masses—
that then overwork both their brains nn (1
their hands, without seeking enough of that
rest and reaction which amusements afford.
A foreigner, accustomed to the constant op
portunity for innocent enjoyment and rest
from labor, which is afforded in such variety
and so cheaply in Europe, is struck with as
tonishment at witnessing the utter disregard,
and almost antipathy to see,ing enjoyment
and being .pleased, which a largo proportion
of the American people exhibit. In large
cities like ours, probably more than one half
the people have never in their lives witnessed
a dramatic performance ; and many persons
boast of this fact, as an evidence of social
morality. It is only within a few years that
catering for the public amusement has come
to be regarded in this country as a legitimate
avocation, and even yet there is a large class
who look upon actors, concert givers and
showmen generally, as charlatans and 'noun%
tebanks, scarcely to he tolerated among hon
orable men. 'this is certainly a false view of
men and things, and the tendency of this pub
lie error is immoral and every way unwhole
some, in a social point of view. The masses
must have something to offset against toil
and if agreeable amusement of some kind is
not furnished them, they will seek in dissipa
tion that relaxation from mental care and
bodily labor which would be much more
gratefully afforded them in the shape of
ular amusement. The stern moralist commits
a grievous wrong when he condemns public
amusements. His efforts would be directed
in a wiser channel, if he endeavored to raise
their standard and increase their number and
variety. Those faculties of men, which prop•
erly developed, constitute so much of the en-
joyment of life, must be allowed to play. The
black mask of denunciation, which straight
sectarianism would place upon the class of in'.
nocent pleasures known as public amuse
ments, must be swept away. Even Cromwell.
the Puritan, who had a great knowledge of
human nature, was fond of music, and even
encouraged theatres. John Milton was a
Puritan, and oven had he not left his noble
tribute to Shakspeare, his works bear inter
nal evidence of his deep love for the dramatic
art. But the Pu.itans of our day are less
liberal than Cromwell and Milton. The drama
is condemned by those who make it their boast
that they never saw a play, and music and
dancing are regarded as inventions of the
devil to entrap men's souls. That which cheers
and enlivens the faculties—which gives quiet
and rest to the over-wrought nerves—which
raises the drooping spirits—which gives en
joyment and pleasure without an after-clap
of remorse, suffering and pain, cannot be
morally wrong.
Public amusements should be sustained and
encouraged to a much greater extent than
they have heretofore been in this country.
The popular taste is a tickle one, and those
who seek to meet it must consult carefully ite
demands. It is not the wealthy and the fash
ionable who are the chief snetainers of public
amusements here—it is the masses of the peo
ple. The manager who oilers the highest talent,
the most intellectual entertainment, the most
elaborately prepared and tasteful arrange.
ments to please the eye, cannot hope to sus
tain himself upon the favors of the fashionable
public. They have the means and the oppor
tunity to seek a great variety of other enjoy
ments and recreations well adapted to a cub.
tinted taste. It is the masses—'' the toiling
millions"—who contribute the chief support
of all public amusements ; and the aim of the
manager, if he wishes success, must be to
please them, rather than the fashionable, the
wealthy, the " aristocracy" and those whose
tastes lead them to seek enjoyment in the
purely intellectual.
Look at the history of amusements in this
country for the peat few years, and let those
who wish to please the public learn wisdom
from experience. The public taste for amuse
ment is constantly changing, and demands a
constant variety of food to satisfy its appe.
fife.
At one period we observe the legitimate
drama high in favor, and for a year or two it
flourishes. Bat the masses get tired when
they have seen all-the oldpieces, even though
Shakapeare wrote them, and something new
must be presented. The moral difarna is hit
upon by some fortunate playwright, and it
flourishes for a Beason or two like wildfire
" The Drunkard," and " Uncle Tom's Cabin'
are played night after night in every theatre
in the land. But the sensation drama, ad
dressed entirely to the feelings, does not fur
nish fun enough to continuo its hold upon the
masses for a long time, and it dies away. The
managers return to their " old pieces " and
their accustomed "stars," and, are shocked
with a succession of empty houses. Meantime
the natural love of the people for " song and
fun and ramie" is taken advantage of by
skillful men, and Negro Minstrelsy rises into
great popularity. Our own Foster writes songs
which please the , people, they are sung at
every firesside—and trained bands of accom
plished musicians, like Christy's and San
ford's, and Matt Peel's and Morris Brothers'
fill concert halls and theatres nightly to mil:lo
cation. The colored opera becomes the popu
lar amusement of the day, because it suits the
tastes of the masses. The same thing occurred
a few years ago in regard to panoramas, which
for a few years obtained great success, bat
where are they now
The fashionable concert given by great
celebrities succeeds, because of its rarity,
and the natural curiosity which exists among
all classes to see and to hear people who have
achieved celebrity and are gifted with extras
ordinary powers ; bat even the first talent of
the world cannot be sustained in 'a continued
series of such entertainments longer than curb,
osity can be kept alive, for the masses do not
appreciate the kind of music, and cannot afford
the price which it costs. Witness the failure
of the great musical attempts ia the New York
and Philadelphia academies of music. There
was not fashion enough in the two great cities
of the Union to sustain the opera.
The circus is one of the most successful of
public amusements in this country, perhap
from the very reason that it is the least intel_
ctual. It is purely an amusement. It has

A correct public taste is fast dispelling the
prejudices against public amusements as im
moral, and in such a community as ours, all
kinds of amusements are sure to succeed where
the correct popular tastes of the masFes of the
people are consulted by the managers.
We know that in this matter the public is
hard to please. The great li.lriconi has re
oently failed in New York, while George
Christy, the negro melodist, in the same week
has refused a salary of $lO,OOO per year, pre
ferring to trust his r opularity with the pub
lic, to receive a greater sum as a sharer in
the proceeds of a campaign in California.
But the esperienced manager, when he finds
one class of entertainments unsuccessful,
readily changes to another, and otters such
novelties as the puhilc taste calls for at his
hands.
The Fllnhaling of the Railroad in Chicago
It is with great satisfaction that we an•
nounce that the remaining link—eighty.tva
miles—from Plymouth to Chicago, will be
completed during the present season, and
thus the Great Central Railroad Route from
Philadelphia to Chicago will be an unbroken
one. J. Edgar Thomson, Eig , to whom, as
their chief engineer, the business has been en•
trusted by the Directors of the Pittsburgh,
Fort Wayne, and Chicago Railroad Company,
has, within a few days, closed contrats with
James Fenlon and 0. H. Barnes, Esc's , of
Latrobe, for lazing the rails from Plymouth
to Caicago. The road is all ready for the rails,
which are to be furnished by Messrs. Wood,
Morrell and Co., of the Cambria Iron Works,
at Johnstown. There will be no delay in this
work, for the financial arrangements f.rr its
completion are already perfected, and by the
first of October, the entire work will be done.

A new counterfeit wln note on the State
Bank of Ohio made its appearance in this
city on Friday. It is admirably executed, and
may deceive even good judges of money. The
note before us is on the Harrison branch at
Cadiz, letter 11. It is in all respects a copy
of the genuine note. A careful examination
shows that the letter "1," in the word "will,"
at the right end of the note, and letter "p," in
the word " pay," at the left end, touches the
engraved frames mound the heads, while it
the genuine note they do not. The eyes in
portraits are also imperfect. The counterfeit
is signed "Wm. Phillips, t_.'ashier," a:d " J.
Andrews, President." Those not good judges
of money will do well to refuse all 810 notes
on this bank, without submitting them to a
competent judge. _
Firing c.t. American, Ships.
Some of the Idritish commander in the vicin

amusing themselves by firing into and at
the American vessels, on the pretext of sus

number of instances of this kind, the suspicions
of these officers must be excited by every
vessel bearing the American flag. The Tropic
Bird of Philadelphia, was fired at by the Brit
ish guaboat Jasper. The schooner Mobile,
just arrived at New York, was shot at with
riff :is, from the war steamer Styx, the balls of
which lodged in her balwari.s. This kind of
interference with our commerce is unwarrant

put a stop to it.

had been unwell for better than two months. She procured
a bottle of M'Lane's Vermifuge, and administered It. The
child passed a large quantity of worms, and in a few days
was as hearty as ever It had beau. Parente, with such testi

is perfectly safe.
