The retail merchants of this city,
especially the grocers, are considerably
troubled about the new bill relating to
peddlers enacted by the last Legisla
ture, and which goes into effect 10
day. 1t is contended by some that a
grocer who calls on his customers for
the purpose OF taking their orders and
then supplies them with the goods lie,
under this law, peddler. and liable
to be fined unless lie takes out q il
cense. We scarcely believe that such
was the intention OF the trainers OF the
law, and If It was, its provisions arc
certainly very unjust. This Law, as
we understand II, was enacted for the
purpose of preventing hucksters and
itinerant vendors coming to this city
from other places, and ii il is 10 he so
construed as TO work TO the disGdvan-
tage OF our own people, it would lave
been better never to have passed it.
There was case in point before the
Municipal Court last summer in " HIGH
q grocer who made practice Of going
around among his customers with u
wagon loaded with goods WIS arrested
on charge Of peddling without H.
cense. When the case was tried the
Judge decided that the man was not
guilty, rs his license as retailer Of
goods gave him the right to supply his
customers in this manner, but whether
this Is good law under the new act II
may be for the Court to determine.
The new law win be found in full In
another column. and ia worthy a care
iul perusal by all interested.

II Is reported that IN extraordinary
outbreak of cholera is raging in India,
and that a thousand deaths have &C.
Cured in one district in single week,
This is certainly alarming, as accord
ing to the established theory this is the
year that this terrible disease is ex-
pected 10 spread over Europe and
America. The outbreak in India is
no doubt caused by the close crowding
OF the pilgrims, who, at this time, are
visiting their sacred shIines. There
is every reason TO believe that unless
the greatest vigilance is exercised this
country will also have q visitation OF
this disease, and therefore the greatest
care should be exercised In reference
to all vessels coming from foreign
ports Every one should also see that
their cellars and yards are thoroughly
clean, go that there is 20 chance fol
the propagation OF microbes. With
due precaution there is no doubt bu'
we may be able to escape this disease
