THE PLEA OF THE PURITANS. To most of the Four Million in and about New York: If you do not live in the way we live @ you are leading bad lives. We are but ® few thousand in this vast American metropolis, but we know we are right, and we know everybuly else ts wrong. ‘We know nearly all the four million try to make Sunday a holiday, to take their children out to nearby suburban resorts, to have them play basebull and ride the merry-go-rounds and shout and laugh, to have young people dance together to Pleasant music while the oid ones sit wnder trees and drink their lager or claret. Perhaps three million nine hun- dred and ninety-five thousand think this is the true way to keep Sunday, but we five thousand say that ts the wrong way. There must be no games for chil- dren, no dancing for youths and mald- ens, no lager, no wine for those grown up. Sit under the shade tree if you will, but meditate on the certainty of death. Therefore, yesterday we tried to close up many suburban playgrounds; in one place we scaled the fences and invaded! the grounds. In the city we compriled men to Ile and dodge policemen to get a drink, We are fow, but we will never woary efforts to change New York from ‘@n international metropolis into # big Puritan Podunk Corne: THE HOLIER THAN THOUS.

What Republican reformer could now say one word against the ex-Inspector's fitmess for a seat in the Staie Senate? Having reconsidered the carriage light erdinance, the next thing for the Board Aldermen to do is to re-enact it, A GREAT DAY FOR THE BABES. ia great day was Saturday for the poor @ildren of the city; great in the re- freshing coolness of the breezes that @wept tm from the ocean; great in the sumbine that seemal to carry even into the saddest the clearness and elas @n atmosphere full of health end vitality; but greater tll in the op R portunity given to the little ones and, worn and tired mothers to enjoy crowd they were! back to pale, pinched Pleasure and conten wad eyen vefore tue came to en end!

The new canal will shorten th distance between Tong Island Sound and the Hudson River fourteen miles for all navigation, while It will give us fourteen more miles of wharfage room within the city, It will cheapen wharf. age and save time as well as expense to the commerce of the whole country, while it will prevent the diversion to other shores of the business that legitl- mately belongs to New York The Interest of the occasion will be lessened by the thought that If selfish efforts of a powerful rattroad cor- poration had prevailed the Harlem River would have been filled up asa road-bed for its tracks and millions of increased valuation would have been lost to the city, while other millions would have heen lost to commerce. | ot It's a poor sort of a Joke for a morn ing newspaper to say of a hospital patient who had passed through th surgeon's hands that “he was consider- ably cut up.” CYCLING AS A MEANS OF GRACE.
