TUE NATIONAL CONVENTION of the Friends old*
Lord's Day, met again on Thursday roaming, and shoe
prayer by the Rev. Bishop Waugh, resumed its bwi•
ness. A number of resolutions to promote the °Neat*
of the Convention, were adapted; when the Rev. Dr.
Ed Nerds, from the Committee on business, reported
the fullowiug address, which was unanimously adopt
ed :
ADDRESS OF THE NATIONAL LOBO'S DAY
CONVENTION TO THE PEOPLE OF Tift
UNITED STATES.
The Convention of delegates assembled in this city
from various parts of the Union, to consult on the
means of promoting a more general observance of the
Christian Sabbath, would respectfully solicit the atten
tion of their fellow-eitizens to the subject of their de.
liberations. Were an apology necessary for an appall
so wide as this address contemplates, it is found intim ,
fact that the object concerns all—whether they dwell
in the crowded city or scattered hamlet; in the palaces
of the rich or the cottages of the poor. They believe
that the results of the decision which the nation shall
maturely form as to the claims of this institution will •
reach far onward in its history, and thet we are deal
ing with the element a of the future weal or woe of tke
hundreds of millions who are to inhabit this laud when
we and ours are to he remembered only by the health
ful or baneful influences we have exerted upon this .
forming period of our career.
That our means of safety are as peculiar as our per
ils, is on admitted truism. We have patted with
many of the prescriptive safeguards c,f other countries.
The popular ignorance, upon which the monarchies of
the old world have so greatly relied fur safety, -we
deprecate as our danger. The elevation of the masass
in intelligence, which they fear, is our hope. They
are building citadels of defence from their own people.
We ate seeking to awaken in ours a higher and higher
estimate of their power and their rights. Their rei
strainut from violence are the bayonet and external
force. Ours are love of order, the sense of justice,
the power of conscience,and the fear of God.. Such
are oar restraints; if they fail us, all is lost. Our mix
, take is fatal, and there is no remedy.
It is with reference to considerations like these.
that we desire to fix the attention of our fellow-citizens
upon the Sabbath, as a moral safeguard tendered to
us by our benificent Creator for just such exigencies
as ours ; and as nations are what individuals are, ten- -
dered as a nation to each of us as individuals with all
its blessed influences upon the life that is and the never
ending life to come. Were it of a human device, we
might well fear lest evil should be mingled with its
good, and, could justly question its claims upon =our
unlimited confideuce. But it is a law of God—coeval
with creation. It is one of the selected few, the Tea
Commandments, that brief but comprehensive expres
' sion of -His will. Among these it stands, and we
may not say that it is secondary in importance or ob
ligation to any. For aught we know it may be the
very keystone of tbo arch.
This should be enough.—There is no higher sanc
tion our reason can ask or conceive.
But were theta no such revelation,and were we com
pelled to trace back from effects to cause, so manifold
are the Sabbath blessings, so complete its adaptation
to our physical, social, and moral necessities, we could
not fail to refer its origin to Him who made man, and
who knew his wants as his Creator alone could know
them. That it was made for man as man, is permed
I by all its bearings upon all his wants.
As a period of rest, after six days continuous tan, it
is indispensable to the laborer. Without this gracious
intervale his health and vigor prematurely decay as
certainly, although not as speedily, as if debarred
from the refreshment of sleep; and health and vigor
are the poor man's capital. The statistics now so
greatly accumulated that we cease to gather them.
showing the fearful waste of life in those employments
which know no such suspension, are full of warning
and instruction. Sad indeed is the lot of the laborer
without this jubilee of the week to recruit his ax
bausted energies; when he may wipe the sweat fume
his brow and lilt up his body and lift up his spirit, a
like bowed down by daily toil.
Nor is this Interval of repose, as a law of our physiii
cal nature,
less necessary to inte ll ectual occupations.
The mind must be statecily unladen of its cares, as the
body ofits burdens, or a similar penalty must Wonde
red. The ordinary effects of systematic violations of
the Lord's Day, by men of business or professional
men, ate less clearness of perception and power of
description, and soundness of judgment, and generally
by a diminution of intellectual vigor, often followed
by a sodden breaking down of the over-tasked mental
faculties; in other instances the results are lunacy of
I self-murder. In short, moral and religious considers
floes apart, nothing is gained by a violation of the Di
vine command—a truth often learned too late. If a
man would make the most of himself in all respects,
he will do well to remember the Sabbath day to keep
itlooly.
But the demand of our +nor& and social eaters
for the blessings of a sanctified Sabbath are still more
imperative, and take hold of higher results. We can
not dispense with this pause from the ceaseless pur
suit of pleasure, gain or distinction—we need it to
moderate our passions, to chasten our desires, to tat
vate our aims, and to seek the salvation of enemies's...-
It is here the Sabbath chiefly discloses the divinity of
its origin and the benevolence of its purpose.
It speaks in God's name to the tide of worldliness
—"thus far shalt thou come, but no farther;" and
communes with him of eternal retributions—points his
burdened conscience to the only Saviour, arid to that
Heaven whose endless felicities none shall know but
the pure in heart and the pure in life. In its legiti
mate observance it is a season of bushed passions as d
of tranquil enjoyment. disposing the heart to kindness
and good will—a season for the affectionate initrue

low beings—for the privileges of private and sand

The subjects ofthought and conversation are pure and
elevating in their nature, and it would he strange; in
deed, if the Sabbath sun, as it sets upon a &mil or
community who than had hallowed its hours of . ht.
did not leave them happier, wiser and better thin w A

Can any doubt the effects of a day thus spent op
