Violation of the sunday Laws.

John Schwar., the keeper of the New
Orleans Exchange, ON Second street, was ar
raigned before Recorder Mills, yesterday, on
The chsrgeof keeping a disorderly house, in
violation of the city ordinances. MeSsrs.
Blythe and Foster appeared for the city, and
Mr. DENLY for the defendant The case at
tracted considerable attention, owing to the
fact that it was in part made test of
the possibility Of a rigid enforcement of the
Sunday laws in this city. The case was
tried by a jury, and it appeared in the evil
'derce, that he habittally kept his house
open for the sale of liquors on Sunday;
that it was frequently noisy and boisterous /;
that it was so disorderly on last Sabbath, as
to disturb one of the church congregations
and the paSSers by that during the day a
street fight occurred in front of it, and that
frequently card tables were used openly
contrary to city ordinance. Upon this
evidence the jury promptly inflicted fine
OF twenty-hy dollars and costs, thus evinc-
ing commendable purpose to see to strict
enforcement of the laws.
c. A. KeSsler, confectioner on Main street,
was brought before Justice Walker, for vio-
lation of the Sunday law, by keeping his
house open on the Fourth, for the sale OF
fireworks, &c. 1t was at this house that
most of the rockets, crackers and other
fireworks were obtained which so much
contributed TO the disgraceful disturbance OF
last Sabbath evening. Mr.. Kessler pleaded
guilty, and the Justice, with inappropriate
leniency fixed the fine at the lowest limit
enc dollar. 1t would be, perhaps, well, i
our Magistrates would inform themselve
that the sentiment of this community i
decidedly in favor of a strict adherence Il
the laws, and Of decent observance of tn
Sabbath, and that this cannot be attained b
by such uncalled-for clemency. And Will
on this subject, we will venture to call tn
attention Of our City Marshal, the COnsta
bles, and the Sheriff to the continued viola
tions Of the city ordinances and State law
in reference to the Sabbath. These acts al

B75H The New York Herald offers some
sage advice TO Mr.. Douglas in regard to the
course he ought to pursue in the coming
canvas in Illinois. 1t says that Mr.. Doug
las is doubtless well aware Of the fact that
the President of the United States holds the
commanding position of his party, as the
President Jackson, and of Mr. Clay, who
tarned against President Tyler, will testify.
The Herald thinks the only salvation for
Mr.. Douglas and the Democratic party in
Illinois, is the speedy reunion of that party
and adds that the only nucleus for that re-
union is Mr.. Buchanan'S Administration
The Democratic bolters, says the Herald,
"have discovered that in Mr. Buchanan they
have man at the head of affairs who is
and is resolved to be, the master of his stu
alton, and who is not to be deluded mol
frightened FROM his course, and, consequent
", are disposed to come to terms" The
Herald, certainly has forgotten who are the
"bolters" in Illinois. If Mr.. Buchanan and
his adherentS are so inhexible, then the
breach in the Democratic party in that State
is irreparable. But nothing in the past his
tory of Mr.. Buchanan can justify so high
an opinion of his frmness. Tie has SHIFTED
too often to remain steady now, and ",
predict he will yet come to Mr.. Douglas
terms.
The same journal thinks that, let wha
will occur, Mr.. Buchanan is secure abe
cause, from the evidences of the late session
should the Democracy continue divided ant
be broken to pieces, he will still be sustaine,
upOn all essential measures; but to the dis
organized democracy the only hope for 1856
is the common rallying point of the Ad
ministration. They cannot destroy it, bu
it may save them. That is all. "

Eay- The following extract from q cores
penience OF the Philadelphia Press, Will give
our readers an idea of how Mr.. J. Clancy
Jones-Democratic leader ct the last House
OF RepreSentatiyes-SuSta himself in his
district. He represents Berks county, one
of the strongest Democratic counties in the
union-one that never fails to give a ma
jority equal TO every emergency. So bare
| faced deception as is shown up in this cor
respondence has no equal, if we except the
! Lecompton fraud of Mr. Buchanan. Much
wonder was manifested why Mr.. Jones re-
manned in Washington so long after the adj
journment of Congress, when his presence
was so much needed at home. The matter
is now explained:
The anti-tarif speech made by Mr.. Johes
in the House of Representatives on the 18th
of June, caused great dissatisfaction in this
county, the views he then expressed being
directly opposed to those entertained here.
His friends became seriously alarmed
and the urgent necessity for repairing the
mischief was felt by them all. To remove
the impression made by his speech, Mr..
Jones wrote another, not the one he deliver
ed in the House. but totally different, con-
tanning views and statements which he had
not uttered, and suppressing much of what
he had said. This bogus printed speech was
shaped by him so as to accord with what he
supposed to be the opinions and wishes of
the people of this county, and was intended
10 make political capital, to be used By him
10 secure q denomination.
Ii was the preparation of this -frGuduleR,
speech that kept him at Washington and
which was published in the Union OF the
23d, eleven days after he made his speech
in the House.
Truly, n member of Congress who can
perpetrate such a fraud upon his constituents
must have an accommodating conscience
one of the gun-elastic order, that can be
stretched to any extent which his own in
terestS require. This act proves the trutf
of the assertion of the Reading Gazette
that Mr. Jones has remarkable talent fol
being on both sides of question at once
5 for and against tariff at the same time.
5 The happy faculty, spoken of by the &c
0 zette, I" of being on both sides Of a question
e at oncc-for and against tariff at the sam
e time is certainly in no wise derogator,
c to Mr.. Jones Democracy. II ought to adj
C another cubit to his staturein the cstimatio
