If some of the dealers in. this city who are
in the daily habit of doing the same thing, to
the annoyancerof the neighborhood around
them, and the eternal destruction of the miser-
able victims of intemperance, were similarly

honor and credit of the authorities, and would
certainly prevent much sorrow, sin and suffer
