Twenty reapectable frechol- ders residing in the election district of the ap- piicant are required to procure a license for the sale of liquors by the glass, drinkable on the premises, “and not more than one license shall be granted on the memorial of the same peti- tioners, or any of them.’ Now let us see what will be the operation of these requirements and restriction, We dare say that, taking all the places together within this city, great and small, high and low, where liquors are now re- tailed and drank on the premises, they will not fall short of three thousand five hundred. Putting the population of the city at seven hun- dred thousand, this will give usa hotel, restau rant or grog shop for every two hundred souls, men, women and children inciusive—a pretty good supply. Next, consulting the new law, the question re- curs,, what will be the probable reduction in this grand aggregate of retail liquor dealers, under the requirement, in each Gase, of. reapecta- ble and distinct frecholdors-residing in the elec- tion district of the applicant? Now we suspeot it is within the mark to say that of the whole popu- lation of thia city there are not more than five thousand resident freeholders. This number, as- sumiag they will all eign, divided by twenty, will give us two hundred and fifty inns, taverns or hotels for the retailing of liquors with the au- thority to be drank on the premises, Upon this estimate thirteen out of every fourteen of our re- tail liquoring establwhments will be closed; with the enforcement of the new law. In the lower part of the city, from the absence of resident free- holders, perhaps not leas than ninety-nine out of every hundred liquoring places will be shut up. Can such a law be reduced to practice in this city? We ewait the results of the experiment with very small anticipations of success. In the meaatime, as the Board of Commissioners of Ex- cize are not to be appointed till the second Tuee- day of May, end as the Board are not to proceed to the business of granting licensestill the Tuesday next following, we conclade that this new law does not really go into effect, as far the retailing of Liquors is concerned, until Tuerday, the nine- teenth day of May. In theieterval, there being no authority to grant licenses, there can be no pains and peneltics applied for continaing to sei] uoder the existing free trade privileges derived from the Maine law of total prohibition, The const is clear to all liquor dealers till the niacteenth of May, and then we ehall ceo what wo shall see. shall be held, Whoorer of this geolion shall be aad ob conviction shall workhouse or peniten Tas Rewiciovs Pearsa on Ds.

Prominent among theee are the New York Observer and the New York Bvangelist: both organs of the Presbyterian denomination, and seemingly agreed ‘on the im- propriety of “letting up” the actors on any terms The Hvangelis is mild and Christian; it “gives Dr. Bellows credit for elncerity,” and deplores bis “erratic notions;” but remembering that “an infidel and « Frenchman,’ namely, the crazy Rousseau, bad “protested against the theatre,” disclaiming “bigotry and narrowness of mind,” and deepairing ot “purifying the drama,” it takes ground against “theatzioal representations” al- together, because the lighter atage is “an oxbibi- tion of vice,” while “ths acting of tragedies leads to many a deed of eclf murder.” Not 60 the Observer, This howling print grins in a ghastly manner at the ides of Fanny Kemblo teaching Dr. Bellows hie duties, and ot Manager Barry dcfonding him. “A New York olorgy- man,” it sbricke, “rebeked by an actress!” And why cot, Mestor Otserwr? Think you there are bo aotreses who could rebuke you for your meanness ard your snobbishness, to the posible advantage of your manners and your heeat? The Observer bas “seen it stated that Macready would not allow his children to go to the theatre; any one but the Observer would have known that the statement was false, The Observer's knowledge of history is such that it is enabled to pronounce “ the drama, from the days of the Grecian dramatists (o the present time, a nursery of vice and a corruption of morals.’ We do not precisely know what oar cotemporary means by calling the drama “® corruption ;” but if any one has hoaxed the Observer by lead- ing it to beliewe that the Greck tragedians were vicious or immoral, or that the plays of Seneca were unfit for public hearing, or that the long- winded performances which amused the audiences of the middle ages were debasing, or that the plays of Racine, Lessing or Shakspere are calea- lated to corrupt the heart, oe endanger the morals, we think it # great shame, and we would like to eee #0 thoughtless a person exposed. Every schoolboy learns Greek in Sophocles and Earipides; Terence is « standard Latin text book ; and though we do not impose upon our boys the duty of Hatening to the religious plays which were composed by the predecessors of the cditors of the Observer, 8 few centuries since, they study French in Racine and Molidre, and their own tongue fn the immortal verse of Shakapere. Yet this sort of reading in which our youth are trained from the cradle is pronounced by the Observer to be o “nursery of vice and a corruption.” We eay it with pain and sorrow—there is no help for anything Liberal or manly or generous to be expected from the religious pres, Some rell- gious newspapers will be candid and gentle like the Deangelit; and some will be coarse and igno- rant, like the Observer; but cach, after his kind, will oppose to the death, the progress of the great, the good, and the new ‘There was an opportunity here for some bold journal to say # true and 4 just word in favor of Dr. Bellows, and in favor of the rights of com- mon sense and humanity. But the word will have to be said by the secular press; and when wo carry the day and win the battle, the ravens of the religious press will wheel into line, and snuffié, and minke believe that they were all: along on our side, ‘There is no reason why the present breach be- tween church and stage should exist; or why the stage should be #9 shamefully depraved at this particular day of enlightenment; or why the church, in this day of tolerance, should still adhere to ® fanatic hatred of the stage.

The more this business is studied the louder is the course of the Mayor andthe municipal autho- rities praised by the people, and the stronger the conviction that the atrocious and unconsti- tutional enactments of the late Legislature can- not be sustained. Everybody compares them to the Maine Liquor law, which was defeated and nullified by the Court of Appeals. Whatever may be the iseue of the contest, one thing is proven already: the desire of the people of this city that they may be nullified—all of them, the Charter, Police, City Hall and Excise enact- menté—is quite unmistakeable.
