' It has long been the common faith of the Christian Church, that in the writings of 3464; tliriie Ailtinat &ides Of termingted=the moral, the ceremonial, and the judicial. If this belief is well`founded, it must bp highly important for US to know by what criteria we are to determine in re laden to any given precept, to which code it belongs.' We ought, moreover, to inquire diligently. into the design of each code, the prgppee, rhieh l it was intended to answer, and the •use which we ought to , make of each. Forlit la not to be doubted, that all these' laws, though many of them have been 'ahifigated, Nieri recorded in the " lively ora cles, " tor our aduionition, upon whcim the ends of the world are come.- We are to make use of all these laws, but not the mile nib Of Hence tbi'importince of distin-, guishing - correctly the different , codes or kinds of law. revealed by Mases, , and the purpose which each was intende'd' to answer. And may I not add, that this subject pos sesses reetiliar interest to Presbyterians, at this moment, inasmuch as we are likely to be called upon soon to deeide, whether a part of Section 4, Chapter xxiv. of our Con fession of Faith shall be expunged. This question Wrap, on 'the interpretition of the lime of Moses, and , cannot be intelligently , decided Nithnut the careful 'study of those laws. Let us inquire in the first place„ , whether tier is any stabient foundathin fOr the distinction above indicated—are some of the laws in question moral, , Whilst others are ceremonial; and others again judicial ?' By way of proving the :affirmative of, this gips tin, we might notic e the greit diversi'y and disparity of the Subject-matter of those laws: Let the reader. compare Lev. xis 18 ) "Thou shalt We thy neighbor as thy. self," with Num. six :11,," He that touch eth the dead body of any unin, shall be un clean seven daps, " and he will find it diffi cult to believe tat these laws belong to the same code, or are intended to answer like purposes. ,We might also notice, as _an evi dence that some of thoselaws were intended to answer a temporary 'purpose, and then (tease to be obligatory, and others to be per manent and unchangable the awful solemni ty with which some of them were delivered by an audible voice from heaven, and then inscribed on tablets of stone, by the finger of God himself. Was not all this intended to indicate the incomparable excellence and importance, and the perpetual obligation of that code'Which is summarily exhibited in the Decalogue? But, Waiving arguments of this kind, let us look at the relation in which the Israel ites stood Ito God, and we shall see that they needed three kinds or• codes of laws. In . Ithirfirst place, as. rational, human , creatures, they were under , the law of nature .which had been so much obscured by the fall, that they needed a clear revelation of it; and this is just what ..was given them in. moral law.. Again, they constituted for the time being, the visible Church, and as such they needed,a law ,to direct them how to ap proach God, and in what manner to worship him; and this want was supplied in their ceremonial,. or eoclesiastical law. Finally they constituted a nation, a commonwealth , and as such, needed a civil polity, a code of lais to regulate'ind secure their civil rights, restrain and puniiih crime, and protect them from the. evils of anarchy; and for this purpose their judicial law was given them. That there are amongst the laws revealed and reiorded by the ministry of Moses, pm ceptit adapted to each of these purposes, is too plain'to require proof. It is too obvi ous to escape ''the' notice even of the :most cursory reader, that some of those laws are addressed,to the Jews am ?nen, and. have no reference to the . peculiarities of the state and ;relations in "which they *ere - placed; whilst others :of .them lave a plain and dis tinct reference to them as standing in a pe culiar relation to God. And, it is . equally obviOns, that of . these last, some have re spect to their ecclesiastical, and others to their civil or political relation& Let us take' a somewhat more extended view of the nature' and design -of each of these codes. And we .begin with the 'mbral. That mangy as a rational *creature, is under :4litw to God, all who admit the existence of a Moral (19Tenttir agree. And Christians agree, that this law, whiph_ is, commonly called the law Of nature, was written on man's heart in his creation; so that in a state of innocence he needed no outward revelation of it. They agree, moreover, thatAke, writing of the,law on .the heart was `BO far, effaced by ;the fall, as to render a revelatien of it necessary to our knowledge of our whole duty. Paul, speaking ot the heathen, saps`: '" These having not the lei, are a laW. Unto themselvis, which she*, the Work' of the 9aw',writteu in their 'hearts, their consciences Also 'bearing, witness, and their thoughts the meanwhile accusing pr else4xcusing - one, another." Whilst he maintaiiis•that -some traces of the law re maiti in the hiart, so to render them in exensable,, 'and justly punishable, he , does mot Say 'that a revelation, is unnecessary, but elsenthere,distinetly affirms its necessity. Now, no one who carefully reads the laws of 3.5..p5e5, ean doubt that some of ,tO.O many precepts which he delivered, are nothing elselhan a revelitien'of the,law• of nature; that law,-which, was originallywritten in the heart. Beible the Deealogne, there are many other freeepts which seem to be in .tended as explanations , or expansions of parts of the becalogue, and which iriculeate'du- ties that are incumbent on man as man, having their forindation in the nature of God, and man's relation to.him as an intel ligent moral agent. Now this is the very thing chat is intended, by the moral law; it is a revelation of the law of nature. Those parts, then, of the of Moses which. re veal, of. reiterate, the law Of nature, are properly, called moral precepts, or moral laws. And if so, they are obligatory, not on the Jews only, but all to whom they eorim. It is very true drat the heathen, as long as they are ignorant. of 'the revealed law, are not under obligations to , obey it. Their, relation to God, under the law, of na ture,i is precisely the same that it would . Italie been, if no revelation of the law had ever been“given. But as soon and as far as any of the Gentile world have become ac quainted` with the moral, e., the .revealed law of nature, it was binding . upon them, they were under obligation to make it the rule of their life. Some seem to think that Christians are not toi look for a rule of life to the moral law, as it is found in• the Old Testament: Our rule of duty, they.think, is to be found in the New Testament alone. Bat was not Christ" with the Church in the wilderness ?" - Did not Moses speak by his authority and his direotion ? Or are we to suppose that he revealed the moral law by Moses. merely for the instruction of the Old Testament Church, and then when he hunself appeared in thelikeness of human flesh, recalled all that lie had enjoined by Moses, to repeat it in a slightly different form ?. Are Are to suppose, in other words, that in the New Testament the-same moral law Which had been in force under the Old Testament is re-enacted, having either expired by its own limitation, or,'Peen repealed ? Let it be , granted that, on some points, the moral law is more fully developed and expanded in the New Testament than in the Old. But must it not he admitted, on the other hand,that. ',tin New TeitaMent con tains no 'such comprehensive classification of the duties et the law of nature-:--no Com- peed of it'ex - preesed'in,few words, and easily *remembered,- such as is found in the Dees logne? And is it' not plainly the object of our Lord and his Apostles in' that they, ; say` about the &ides of men as inen;to ex plain a law already revealed, and to`; refute 'false glosses and interpretations of that law,- and pot' o reveal a newlair ? It,mity'he leged t hat even in that part of the ^law of Mesis which hes commonly been regarded as mend, 'there are something; allusions to . the •peculiar circumstances 'of the-Israelites, as in the''promise annexed to the' fifth com mandment. But may not the same thing be affirmed of initch,of the instruction contained in the New Testament ? How many of, the exhortations in , the Epistles to the Corinthi ans, were called. forth by the then existing 'state of , things in that Church," and contain allusiens to the circumstances of that peo ple ? But the instruction which those Epistles convey to us, and our obligations to receive and act upon that instruction, is none theless In that account. Besides, the Apes- Ale JUNI. speaking of tlie lair by 'Which Chriatiagrare bound, ciuctcs es part cf that law, the sixth and seventh preeepts of the Deoalogue. And the Apostle Paul in writ ing to . the Ephesians, who were Gentiles, quotes the filth precept, as obligatory on them, calls it the, first commandment with proniise, 'and modifies the phreiseology of that promise eo as to show, that in its spirit, it belongs to Gentiles no less than Jews--: "that ,it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest live long upon the earth." . THE PRESBYTERIAN BANNER AND ADVOCATE. gun g . Into the Sunshine "I 'wish , father would come home." The voice that said this had a troubled tone, and the face that looked up was sad. "Your,father will be very angry, said an aunt, who was sitting in the room with a book in her hand. The boy raised himself from, the sofa, where he had been lying in tears for half an hour, and with a touch of indignation in his voice, answered: "He 'll be sorry, not angry. Father never gets angry." For a few moments the aunt looked at the boy half curiously, and let her eyes fall again upon the book that was in her hand. The boy laid himself down upon the sofa again, and hid his face from sight. "That's father now . N He started up, after the lapse of nearly ten minutes, as the sound of a bell reached his ears, and.went to the room door. -He stood there for - a little while and then came slowly back, saying with a disappointed air "It isn't father. 'I wonder what keeps him so late. 0, I wish he would come l" "You seem anxious to get deeper into trouble," remarked the aunt, who had only been in the house for a week, and who was neither very amiable nor very sympathizing toward children. The boy's fault had pro• yoked her, and she considered him a fit sub ject for punishment • ." I believe,, aunt Phehe, that you 'd like, to see me whipped, said the boy warmly. • , "Bat you wont! "I Must confess," replied' aunt Phehe, " that I think a little wholesome discipline of the kind you speak of, would not be out., of place. If you were my child,.l am ,very. Bute you would n'• t- escape." "1 am not your child : I don't, want to be. Father's good, and loves me." ' " If your father is so good, and loves you, so viell r you must be a very ungrateful or a very inponsiderate boy. His goodness don't seem to have helped you_much." "Hush, will you!" ejaculated the boy, excited, to 'anger by this unkindness of speech. "Phebe !" It was the boy's mother : who spoke now, for the first tithe. In an under tone, she added "You.are wrong. Richard , is suffering quite enough, and you are - doing him harm rather than good." 4gain the bell rang, and again the boy left the - sofa, and went to the sitting roctm. door. 4 f It's father!"

" - How ?" "'I threw my ball In there, onee . ---Mily once, in forgetfuln'ess. - The,poor boy's tones were husky and trem ulous. A little while Mr. Gordon sat, controlling hirnself;and collecting his disturbed thoughts. Then he said cheerfully— " What is done, 'Richard, can q be . helped. That the broken pieces away. You have had 'rouble enough about it, I can see,, and re proof enough for your thoughtlessness; so I shall _ not add a word to increase your pain." "0, father 1" And the boy threw his arms about his father's neck. <" You are so kind, so goodl" , Five minutes later, and Richard entered the sitting•room pith his father. Aunt Phebe looked up for two shadowed faces; but did not: see them. She was puzzled. "That was`very unfortunate," she said, a little while after Mr. Gordon came in. 44 It was such an exquisitte work of art. It) is hopelessly ruined." • Richard was leaning against, his father when his aunt said this. Mr. Gordon only smiled, and drew his arms closely around his boy. Mrs. Gorden threw upon her Sister a look of warning, but it wairinheeded.' " I think Richard was a ,verYnaughty boy." "We have settled all that, Phebe," was the mild but, firm answer of Mr. Gordon; "and it is one of our rules to get into the sunshine as quick as posaible." Phebe was rebuked, while Richard looked grateful and, it may be, a little,triumphant, for his ,aunt berme down upon him rather too hard for a bay's patience to en dure.

This road is destined to be one of the most important in the country. It i s em powered by its charter to establish a line of steamers at each of the termini of the road for the transportation of passengers and freight between those points and any desired ports on the Atlantic and.

Why, he found it impossible to bring - these articles to the test of sod's Word, and he has run away; and you all .know what a man is who'does this! • A clergymen in Philadelphia recently read a letter at one of the Sansom. Street noon.day prayer-meetings, from a young man of his acquaintance who was on board, ,the ill.fated Austria, in which he detailed the last interview between, himself and five Christian comrades who perished beneath the waves. As soon as the destruction of the vessel was found inevitable, these six, young ,men took a position between the flames ,and the water, with the understand ing that at the last moment they would unitedly consign themselves to the, latter. In the bare moment thus allowed to con template their fate, their Imp in Christ was cocnfidently expressed, and, when to escape -1 the spreading fire their leap became neces sary;ithey fondly grasped each other's hand, and with a parting" farewell," and an ex presseds confidence that in " a few Moments they would` meet in heaven," they sprang into the sea. The writer of the letter states that after sustaining himself in the water . by means' of a life•preserver, for four hours, (during which time his contemplations of a future state ripened into a joy in believing in his Saviour such as he had never before experienced,) a vessel hove in sight for-his release, so that just at the moment when his exhausted energies brought the' open door of heaven more temptingly to view, he was made the subject of an earthly , resone. The reading of :the letter rcferred to elicited an outburst of• feeling all, oyer, the room. No =More Marys for the Catholics, The doctrine of the .Inunaculate Concep tion brings comfort to the Protestant 'heart.- That antecedent of the VirgimMary's birth. having been adjnsted, and sanctified, by the recent PaPal buil on the subject, his holineis finds it due to the divine character now af fixed to hey nature, to forbid the ust-of her, halite at present; and we accordingly have a decree, attested with all the insignia of Papal authority, fOrbidding the true Cath olic hereafter to call' his child " Miry." Had the decree, going a step further, had retrospective action, and unnamed the actual wearers of the prenomen, it would have been still more gratefuk It would have benefited this generation, as well as those to follow. For it his „happened that the Virgin Mary, as the most powerful medium of devout as piration in heaven, has been unduly honored with this peculiar form of ascription. Pious Catholic families, desirous of conciliating this potential influence, have Italian) , so •named one, at leasti of their children.' Hence the multiplicity of Marys—an exu berance, among other domestionvils of Prot estantism not the least annoying, since, to say, nothing. of the "sentimental side of the siuestiOthe ,nUmber breeds infinite Ciallill eiOn' and often involves the necessity of at taching a substitute ad libitum, to some o f the throng. The immediate bearing of the pontificial rescript upon this " minor misery" is obvious. The name " Mary " becomes a Protestant name; it attains sectarian signi ficance. It has been turned out of the ,Church, and fills, like others of its good things, to unbelievers and enemies. The Protestant may, felicitate himself Upon the acquisition.—New York Times.
