The New York Sunday Law.
INV YORK, December 3d-The new Penal
Code went into effect to-day. While the
police were unqusstionably very active dur.
ing the day, their efforts were not directed in
such manner as TO elicit praise from such
persons as fully support the provisions of the
new Code. Many arrests were made, butneither
lquor-selling nor drunkenness appeared to
decrease to any extent. The cigar stores were
generally closed, and many proprietors hung
out placards ridiculiug the new law. Much
OF their business went to the drug stores.
The usiness of the BARRIERS was limited 10
hotels, where the customers uniformly
claimed that they were guests. Eighteen of
the nineteen drivers sent out by Adams
express during the morning were arrested. The
law has been enforced IN such a way as
makes il odious, with view to its
early repeal. About SEQ arrests were
made on a charge of desscrsting the Sabbath.

newspaper vendors, BARRIERS, rag-pickers
and Hebrew storekeepers making up the mum.

Heating Company was the first person az

were closed. A sacred concert was stopped
