MERCANTILE LIBRARY, OF PHILADELPHIA AND THE
ACADEMY OF FINE ARTS.
[From the Phllada. Inquirer, 17th.l
The contest among the stockholders Of the
Mercantile Library Company over the question
whether or not that institution should open its
doors on Sundays was prolonged and
bitter. 1t lasted years, and it WAS fin
ally decided in favor of the more
liberal minded. The opening of the library on
Sundays is no longer an experiment. 1t has
proved 30 signal a success that it has no oppon-
en.s, and the good it has done is not to end with
itself another educational institution,
the Academy Of Fine Arts hiss deter
mined to follow its example. AS an ex-
pertinent merely, the Academy opened to the
public yesterday, the magnificent collection of
etchings and engravlngs belong to James II.
Claghorp, Esq, and it is understood that
should the trial prove satisfactory the Academy
itself, when completed, will be kept open on
Sundays as well as on secular days.

City Politics.

CANDIDATES FOR THE MAYoRALTY-NAMEs MEN
TONED ON THE REPUBLICAN SIDE.
Interest in the nominations for the Mayoral-
ty seems to to deepen, as we approach the usual
time Of making nominations, Robert G. Fraim,
Esq, announces in a card, elsewhere that lie
will be candidate for the Republican nomna-
ton, and We may state, with equal postiveness,
that John v. Rice, Esq, Samuel A. MaoAllister,
Esq and Benjamin s. Clark have all placed
their names at the disposal of their friends, and
that ExMsyor Valentine is also in the field. John
q. Patterson, Esq:, has definitely declined to
have his name used.
For Council, Mr., II. +. Pickes, whose term
expires in the 9th ward, states freely his inten-
ton not to be a candidate again, and Mr.. Jos. Il.
Phillips who, it was said, would run again in the
7th ward, contradicts the statement in the most
positive manner, declaring his purpose not to
permit the use of his name, under any circum-
stauCeg.

THE WEST CHESTER "BEE."-Our list of the
Bucks county spoilers, on Saturday, by provo

The West Chester Local Ne,os says !:
Throughout the entertainment Professor Rey-
nolds acquitted himself with credit as peda-
gogue his manner and fair dealing eliciting the
esteem of all present."
The same paper gives report-the correct
ness Of which we doubt-thus "The Bucks
Go. class spared neither time nor labor in pre-
pairing themselves for the contest. We are in
formed they divided Webster's Dictionary into
ten equal parts, and copied the most difficult
words contained therein. These selections were
passed around among the members, each one
studying them in their turn, and thereby be-
came very proficient in their photographed ac-
