It seems that even the New Yorkers feel not perfectly at case under the feeling that, from u moral standpoint, they ar: violators of the law. The visitors Irequently give ex- pression to their surprise and ask, how it js possible thut such a ccendi- tion is tolerated in a city the popu lation of which conists to a great extent of foreign bory citizens and an enormous number of foreigners are not citizens. If ore considers that undoubtedly one-half of population is 'opposed to Sunday re- | strictions and a considerable part of the other hali would willingly ac- quiesce in the abolition or limitation of the restraint, it is indeed remark- able that New York still has its puri- tanical Sabbath.
