with his NotghbOr's wife.

PHILADELPHIA,Ju July Yesterday
afternoon Andrew McCarty, we'll
known grocer, formerly doing business
at Third andMechainc streets, Camden,
deserted his wife to elope with the
wife OF William Rynner. McCarty ts
a young man of reckless habits. His
attentions to Mrs. Rynner, an active
young woman, who resided ON Mechan-
lc street, near Locust, have attracted
the notice Of the neighbors for weeks
past. He had contracted many debts
in the line o! his business recently,
and persistently refused to pay each
bill as it was presented.
Edward Kennedy, wholesale grocer,
of 131 North Front street, this city, was
unable to collect several sums Ufmoney
due him by McCarty and instituted
proceedings against him in the district
court to recover. The suit was to have
been tried last Friday morning, but
McCarty did not answer to his name
when the case was called. An investi.
cation revealed the fact that he had
sold out the contents Of the store du.
ring the week, and on Friday after
noon, he loft, in company with Mrs.
Rynner.
Mrs. McCarty is still living at Third
and Mechanic streets, and MIR. Rynner,
who Is a machinist, employed in Phil
adelphia, removed his household effects
to the residence of his daughter in
Centreville. The runaway is his second
wife.

For the Republican.
fine sun hay Law.


1t Is evident to the most casual OBJ
server that the dealers in cigars and TO-
bacco In this city have resolved amongst
themselves to defy the reasonable and
legal request of our worthy Mayor.
Now this is no party measure for
amongst these violators of plain sta
tute may be found both Republicans
and Democrats, some of whom at least,
at the same time claim to be good law
abiding respectable citizens. They
would consider it an insult perhaps to
be classed amonst the common herd of
lawbreakers, and yet their actions con-
demu them. On the first Sunday after
notice was given by his Honor, the
Mayor, ain ost every store in the city
was closed, one or perhaps two where
papers were sold claimed that their
stores were open for this p pArpose alone,
but this step created a jealousy amongst
the dealers generally, and now two
months not having elapsed, all of the
principal dealers on Market street at
least are covertly defying tie powers
that be. Why is this 80?
Are our legislative enactments to re-
main as dead letter, and we as time
grow older to 60 on from bad to
worse Ours is government founded
upon equal rights and privileges, and
consequently just as soon as men en-.
gage in other caIlings or business pur-
suits, the tailor, halter, shoe dealer, or
auctiOneer for instance, may come to
the conclusion that it will be to their
interest to prosecute their business on
Sunday, may they not do 80? 1t is
hoped once for all that the Mayor will
be firm, and certainly ali good law
abiding citizens will stand by him, for
as yet we claim that majority of our
people are strongly in favor of decent
observance of the Christian Sabbath.
