Ws Bald, in a previous article, that, la de fending the Ciirls ian Sabbath, wo did not la rrnd to attack par leu'fir abuses of it, whetbor now pract nod or only proposed. It is already profaned sufficiently, even in 'this ble33cd land, which God has so conspicuously distin guwbed by Ilia favor and mercy, to causo every good and truly loyal cltlzoa to depre cate, roost earnestly, anj Increased desecra tion of the Sabbath. Any movement, especi ally any popular or political movement, in re spect to this subject, should, in order to b3 regarded as one of sound moral and social re form, tend lu a direction quite opposite to that advocated by those who would totally change the character of the day which was hal lowed and net apart for man's bono fit and God's honor by express commandmcnl. And it is most fo tunate for our peoph that their whole civil system w .s ongiually so decidedly and radically founded in sound religious prin ciples, that the;r legislatures, however humanly sovereign, are yet so limited 'a thsir power, that any statute enacted by them in plain violation of Divine law is essentially unconstitutional, and of no binding force or validity whatever It is true tb it the legisla ture of a State may pass an act irrelig ous in tendency, and ytjt not so positively contrary to the letter or obvious meaning of God's law as to bo judicially declared, for that reasjn alone, absolutely null and void. And it is pre cisely this sort of legislation that should bj vigilantly guarded against, since it . is tho mcrns by wta'ch wicked men, on virtuous pre tenses, sepk to lasidiously undermine the very foundations of public morality and social order. They are afraid to attack the cltadol of a cation's peace, happiness, and true glory, by bold and open assault on the institutions and ordinances of God, because they know they would ba overwhelmed and utterly routed in any such attempt. They therefore begin by 6low and hidden approaches, de signed to deceive ths garrison; and tbey are not unfrequently so hard pushed and base, aa to use a false flag in order to take the fortress which thpy are net bravo or powerful enough to carry by man strenslh. We are told that Sunday travel else where is allowed, and has not been injurious. The latter part of the asseition, however, is not proved, nor Is it possible always to witness, at once, iu visible demon strations, to what real, and ptobably creat extent, a particu ar invasion of the law of God and the religious hab ts and convict'ons of society, has actually, though secretly, been productive ol serious ev:l. there are soaie po-called social reforms, claiming the sanction of benevolence and patriotism and piety, which take a long timo to betray their hurt ful influence, though they act in the mean while like "rank corruption," which, "min'.ng all within, infects unseen." Per example, those who advocate the run ning of the city passenger railway cars on Sunday, actually urge the measure on reli giOus grounds. They contend that all per sons should have free conveyance to church, and that cheop vehicular travel on the Sab bath would, in every way, promote the spirit ual as well as physical health of the misses. But unless this result could be absolutely guaranteed, which it cannot be, neither the people nor their representatives should try the experiment. In affairs of such vital social moment, the mer conceit or speculation of bad or visionary men should not be trusted. No Christian community can safely take it for granted that any encroachment on the esta blished sanctity of the Sabbath, tor secular use and sensual pleasure, will no! be posi tively pernicious in Its oparation and cflect. It is also complained that the law which allows the use of private equipages on the Sabbath, denies a public conveyance to the great multitude who cannot afford a like luxury; that the lawB of the State shoulJ be equal, and all per eonfl equal belore them, and that what is tole rated in the country should ba tolerated in the town. . But these complaints are more specious than just. The argument amounts substantially to this, that because we have not perfect laws, we should have none at all; because man's laws are not entirely what they ought to be, Goi's laws should be altogether set aside; because one part of the community is permitted ; to do some things on - the Sabbath that is not strictly right, the whole population, everywhere, must be allowed to do everything that is wrong. Such logic as this, it carried out to its legitimate consequences, would utterly subvert civil society and create a hell on earth. It is sim ply amazing that men who lay claim to ordi nary virtue and intelligence can arzue that, because human legislation does not fully meet ft case, it should, therelore, noi try to meet It at alL - But, as has been well said, equal neglect is not impartial kindness. The. species of benevolence which arises from contempt of all Justice and propriety is no true charity. Better suffer that which partly protects and promotes the physical and spiritual well-being of mankind, than gve society entirely up to the dominion oi Satan. The enemies of the Sabbath are fruitful in THE DAILY kVkNuVG !TI&EGltAriL rhlLADELl'ttlA, FKIDAY, JAKUAJtV 20, 16GG. innr nious arguments intended to ' advance their cause. But it Is to be hoped that sophistry will not win In such a contest There is 'too much that is vital to Jhe peace,1 gocd order, and (stability of society, as well as to the eternal welfare of every individual sou, to have it . all staked on the selfish motives or the-moral or mental hallucinations t f a miserable hand ful of pretentious and em pirical social reformers. The people should not beed their seductive but fatal expostula tions They are blind leaders; and Christ st Id that if the blind load the blind, both will fall into ttiJ ditch. 1 he Sabbath, we are told, is good for man. as man ; for man soclatiy as well as relipiously considered; good by ibe law of Providence, for the in ferior and dependent worjd, for ser vant as well as master, and for beas's as well as servant. We , disturb the economy of things; we Injue a dumb and helpless creature if we delraud even the beast that perishes of his humble share in this msr ciiul remission ol the curse. Let us, tliea, trust that tho sanctity of the Lord's day will increase, rather than diminish, among us; and that those whose patriotism even Is invoked against It at this lime, will see that all institu tions of purely human device had better fail than that the Sabbath should perish ia our midst. A Fact for IJunuesi Men. If there are any business men who doubt the success of the Southern steamship line, soon to be established, a very brief consideration of the commercial situation should cjnviise them of tho improbability oi failure. The fol lowing fact may illustrate the argument. One of our leading merchants, recently in New York, made some inquiry into the trade of that city with tho S mthern ports. Oao of the astonishing things he discovered was a dray man. There was nothing remarkable about the drayman, except bis occupation. A steamer was about t leave tor Mobile, and the draymaa had been paid twenty-lour dol lars by a mercantile hoase to place a box on board. For eighteen hours this dravman waited on the wharf with his box, working his way to the vessel, inch by inch, foot by loot, till finally the goods were shipped. By this one fact we may Judge of tho imnenso business New York is doing with the South, of the necessity of Southern liaes to Philachl phia, and of the sound, unprecedented reasons lor expecting their immediate success. We regret to chronicle the departure of a veteran in literature and wealbit, who has for ovc- half a century been lamlliarly known to all of our leading business men. Geobss Oiid, Esq., died on Wednesday, in the eighty sixth year of his age. For two generations he has been well known to the public, aad although living in strict retirement, and having seen his contemporaries all pasi away, yet his position in ihe social world has never been filled by any aspirant of the new times which he lived to see. It is seldom that an old man is remembered and familiarly spoken of by the friends of his grandchildren; yet the remarkable social and intellootual qualities possessed by our venerable .fellow-townsman, secured and maintained for him a popular ity among those who mi"ht have bean expected to neglect him. lie was widely and favorably known as an ornithologist aud lover of natural science. lie was the friend and biographer of Wilsox, and on the most intimate terms with all those whom we are ac customed to look up to as almost classical writets because of their antiquity. As a linguist,- Mr. Ord bad few equals and no superiors, while as a writer of scientific maga zine articles he had a high reputation. lie was for many years President of the Academy of Natural Sciences, and was an honorary member of almost every scientific society in the land. Bis death leaves a void in the province peculiarly his own, which it will bo difficult to fill. . . , .' v i ' The CAriTAL invested in Ma.nufa.c- tuues. The report of the Secretary of the' Interior, in reply to a resolution relative to the amount of capital invested in manufactures, states that they '-begin with New York and end with Newark." Why they should begin with New York, when Philadelphia em ploys seventy-three millions, and she but sixty-one; while the Quaker City produces goods to the value of one hundred and thirty-four millions '; ' per annum, t hef one hundred and nineteen, is not stated: The report shows that the principal cities are interested in protection to home industry in the order we mention them: Philadelphia, New York, Cicinnatl, Bojton, Brooklyn, and Newark. To those who believe in disin tereste 1 political action, it would seem strange that, with the exception of the metropolis, each city is enthusiastic in tho cause of pro tection in about the ratio of the amount of capital Invested. The document Itself forms a most powerful argument in favor of the anti-free trade principle; for in a nation in which the money placed In manufactures in twelve of the leading towns amounts to nearly four hundred millions ot dollars, and in which the four most deeply interested cities produce to the equivalent of three hundred and fifty millions per year, it is certainly want of policy and common sense to endeavor to throw down the wall that protects this mighty variety of our national interests, in order to cater to the Utopian schemes of a set of en thusiasts and interested shipping merchants. Robert P. Kino promises to bo a valuable member of our City Councils, if an expo3ure of the way in which the citizens are ojouslonally mulcted in the awards for ths appropriation of private property to publio purposes U any proof of merit. The property referred to by Mr. Kins' resolution is located at Lauding avenue, aad is intended as an enlargement of Falrmount Park Ibe tract is assessed at $50,009, and the Jury have awarded damages to the amount of $480,000, which is a wide margin, to say the least of it. It would perhaps be rlcht enough o extend Fairmonnt Park, thereby adding to tho attractivrnyss of our suburban resorts, but U must be 1orno in mind that our municipal finances are not la as good condition as most ol i us could wish, autf unnecessary expenditure of public n onev should be avoided where tb.9 in-. nsts of the people are not deeply concerned. Our rates of taxation are at prcs-nt sulfleieatly i onerous without adding to tbo burden. There is no doubt of the fact that Iremendo is obs are frequently engineered through Our Con cite, tla', it properly inspected, would be lound to bo without merit. Our exchequer is not bo affluent but Hint It may bo exhausted by conlinu.il demands A little caution on tho part of our City legislature would save pTat waste of money, and at present we need to husband all our resources, lor from present appearances we w ll Deed all the cash that is available to meet our linbilit es. 1'iom tho Superintendent of Pennsylvania central Kailruna.

TotbeEditob of Tub Evening Tklbobaph felr: We may he told, that the sovoutoon hour-a-di y labortrs are williiw tnus to wjrk: yoa, they ro wtllinc to do tho lamo on Sunday) Now, a double Dioauiiifr Iu words Is a rrcat occasion for docepUon and fallacy. There is a sen so in whiob tul ig true. Tho proerb, "root, pii, or die " loaves crumphy a choice ot evils work or death: and his nljnliip cl.org' s to root as the losat ot two en's ho is a voluntary rooter. Now I affirm, that this is tho only pci fp in wl icli a In-p-lioru An orican ig, or can he unit e, wilnnfr to work seventosn hours por aay, fur. soveu dayg iu tho week. No man, tliat has a soul in him, can bnug that, soul up to the humiliation of such voluntary bondage, a diro ncoos-ify must first te laid upon him. Tho men who have him in their trap, in rrcat condescension and lovo, ar to him: Mike, we aro pom to ran o:ir ears on Sunday, aad our men and horses must buck o to and drive ahead. How do you like it, ilikf?" "Well, sir, I thin seventeen hours a day for six days of tho woe' is about tight cnouh on a poor icllow. Ye see, sir, l'vo no tia.o to sit and nurse l'u3sy on my knee aud amuse myself looking at Jo in my and Sue plaving with tho little dojf about the hearth, bir, I think I'd liko to have Sun day ccar. It's the on'y time I enjoy the homo of toy wifo and children " 'Thai's true, Mike; but we'll of cour-e iuo ease your waves a iitilo. ' Weil, sir, the Lord knows wo poor drivers and conductors have liaid work to cct along- on our present wa.-o j every thing is so dear." "Vory truo Kike, but than you know 'halt a loat is bottorthai no bread.' " "That's true, too, Hi, ilailroad Proaidontl but thou, a whole loaf and a little beef and po'a'oo is better still" "V ell, turn in, Mile, and work neventecn hours on Sunday, aud the inoroaso of your watroa will bur tbo polaloPB, at any rate." "Ah, but Mr. Fiesldent then I'll have to leave poor little Fussy, and Jemmy, aud Suo, and tbeir dear mother all day j and I'll booomo a st ranger In roy own houso ; my little darlings will soon tot know their daddy, fioaso excuse mo tnon from the Sunday." " VVoll, Mike, you've been a fait i lul driver, and I thought I would make you a fair ofli-r, full employment, and living wages. Now I want you fairly to understand your position. You tee tho cars must run of a Sunday, and we must have drivers ;t'a absolutely necessary, and you know nece-Bity has no law. bo, Mike, if you won't another wll:, aud we Will have to part. If you won't work for us on Sunday, your shan't work tor ns on week days. So pond-by, Miko." "Oh! Mr. ITosidcnt, atop a little. Ihere Is another difficulty in my way that maybe you Villi think about It. Alary and I were brought up in praying, and Sabbath keeping, aud church going families. We both think it ia wrong to work on Sunday. My father and grandfather, as far back as I can art any knowledge of them, wore Sab bath keepers, and always he d the Ten Command- menisto be a summary of the moral law, and binding upon the consciences of all men I and my doar wile may be mistaken, but so it is, we coutcitntioanly believe it is rong. 'We munt not work . we must not play, Because it is the Sabbath day.' This we toach.cur children, and we still think it is right. Now, Mr. Tresldent, must we be cut off from our employment aud our bread, and tnrnqdofftne cars all the week, Just because we want to worship the God of our fathers according to the diotates of our own consclonoes, as the Constitution ol tue btate, and the la of the land, and of God say ws ought? Does It not seem hardt I am willing to drive till twelve o'o ock on Saturday night, and t) start at four on Monday morning) but, sir, if I must pollute my conscience by disobeying Goa's law, the law of my native Pennsylvaniaaod ihe law or my ohuroh; or )pve your company' employment, why, then my choice is, to keep a good consoiouce and trut to Ood lor bread." "Well, Mike, it is hard. I do pity you. But, you know, corporations have no sou's, and 1 can't help it. I am but an agent for othors, and must submit to my masters. So, good-by, poor Mike." "Just a minute more, Mr. Bailroad President, if you ploass. If corporations have no souls, can they go to Heaven, or to the other place f And If a Just God series upon tho corporation, and administers Justtoe ac cording to truth for this griovou sin of persecuting all conscientious Sabbath- kocpn out from their employment, how will the individuals who compose the corporation fare at tho suine righteous bar? Can the whole le put vndr a'-rest. and yet all the parts ol that whole eecapeT Out sir, bear In iniud that individual responsibility can neer be nereil in social responsibility. If your corporation pushes off all men who love God and His holy day, and thus persecute ns in violation of law, oan the Individuals who compose it wash tholr bands of It, and say, lam clean this sin is none of mine? Why, air, God'a laws protects your horses, and if you run them seven days In the week, you will kill them as you are killing us. Farewe l. God bless the Sab-bath-breakers with a bettor mind."
