But if, on the contrary, it can be shown that it would iavolve little or no labor, would be in no sense destractive of peace and quiet, forbidding it would seem to be a purely dog- in-the-manger action, This samo principle may be applied to all other disputed Sunday employments and amusements, and, we be- lieve, with results that will s@isfy every sonsible person in tho community. t A—When Tt Shines for AIL the Gatlows [Ziogenmeser at this point became very much af- Larted down hrs che Weetive then stated that Ziewenmoyer had deecrived William Gumbleton almost in the same ‘way that Gumbleton's brother bad done.)

Of the two parties contend. ing for supremacy in the Association, one favors the opening of the reading room on Sundays, while tho other opposes it, The latter party is supported by the Trustees of the Clinton Hall Arsociation, in whom is vested the title of the building occupied by tho Library Association, and for the present appears to be in the majority. ‘The Sunday. opening party is, however, steadily growing in numbers, and has good hopes of an ulti- mate victory. But it is evident that this victory, to be productive of permanent re- sults, must be based upon rational conviction and general public approval. rying of an clection by a plurality of votes is nothing unless it be Lacked by moral The advocates of the innovation on the established practice must be assured that their views are regarded as not incon sistent with the public welfare, if they wish to keep any advantage they may gain In ® communication on this subject sont by the Trustees of the ¢ tion to the Library Association, the opinion ed that the movement to open the Jing room on with public epinion to oppose it.” ything except the actaal —Yor. . in youreelt he nthe port of ST neve ver taw him alter that night on monty slong with lim. jome 10 10) German thalers asked kim how he jo replied that be had made some ating in Lilinot o he cok tie moi nvy Gresnebau' Also DouKut is Keket for Germany, TAKING CHARGE OF MI Tadtd not «pent to him acai May 8, when took ernree of vim a The Hon.
