SALVATION BY LEGISLATION.
It is one of the anomalies of the times that
there is still found in our country n consid
erable number of persons who nim to make
oifH better by dint of statutory ennctrdentsi
111 tilts (lal'tiellhir, they depait frntn one of
th8 principles at the very base of nil true re
ligion, nnd especially 'lint Which 'unde lies
the bi st development-! of Christianity in
these latter days : that is to snv.ihe perfectly
unconst nin-d performance of teligiou-duties,
which is u lone, iu any wise nccvptable
to God. , . , ,
The nnpeittlnn nf lawn rpirn Int-nnr tlin nl "I
i-efViince of Sit day is one hubby of t oso
Who hope to amend the world's morals by
statutes. In the pretty CXteutsivc -ending
involved in prcpn ring a newspaper, we find
this subject frequently discussed in one
shape or imolhc , nnd in most cases it is o
scrvahle that the press tukes high ground

til 11 we do not have laws or the. p cvruuou

iti our national politics, but we seem to hu
going on alio ut .'S before, uttering f Isc and
mocking words, and chcati e each other with
empty pr Cessions mid mean quivocu inns.

It sems tiom this thlf, nt the East, from
whe io the plan of salvation by legi.-lition is
largely derived, the people are tired of it:
and in this Country it will be found that it
has tteicr ir-Fpited a spark nf religious semi
mi-iil in the mind, of one human being. N oi
ls it pio'-nble thill it has induced iu any de
gree ibnl temperance in the use ol in oxicut
liquors, which it was thotivbl wouln result
frum choking men off from their ratinis ot
the ardent one day in cevr-n. Th prylillii ion
nf the sale nt' liiii ir on S inlay involved the
principle that il uits not right to sc. I it on
any other day of the wiek ; and if il is wrong
lo sell liqunr .it is wrong to diink it. The
i:iej iitty of men do not mink that is wrniiir.
becaii-e the Vast jnsjoii y of innnkind believe
iu the tl'e of iti'oxicating liquors, as s evi
denced by t'leir practices,
Il is a fact be) ond question. that the Sunday
Law of this Stale is loiced on lh pei'ple by
a uilnoiiiy; that the lurger port on of uiem
bers who voted lor i', did so .villi the intent
tn .curry favor of the patetil gospel rcfoim
element, (those who In-1 h v o in eternal re
wards ob ained hy'meiiusof human con riv
aiici 9, and who ilimk that when an adversary
is silenced he isconvinced ;) in lllis they count
ed on the tacit wii-o tul those w ho disnp
prnred lh law, on the ground tbnltliey Would
submit to il for ih sakatif the party, and.
finally because . there Is . some, ind filiate,
idi a in the toil ds if umn, that moials tuuy be
improved by legislation.' ''.
The rtsult. as far as party expediency Is
is concerned, is that where the tni ort
of one man is obtained by this law
law, tbo suffrages of two are likeh to be ca-t
against Ihnsn vhn are beld responsible lor
its passage and continuance on the statute
book. In the larger part of the State, the
coarse-haired author of the Scale Cj1i is
equally as pnpulai as the supporters of this
O'moxiom law: and that eminent jurist and
