The Levis -of Mies: In my last, it was represented to highly probable, that , of the laws and'usages of the Hebrews, previous to the establishment of the theocracy, there were some which sanc tioned things morally wrong or sinful ; and the'question was raised; how were such laws and usages treated in the judicial or civil law.revealed.by - Moses ? To this question, I now invite the 'attention of the reader. And, first, let us' consider the' law relating to divorce'. ,It requiree•hut little acquaintance with ancient history to be convinced that the laws of all'ancient nations, even at a much la:ter age than that of Moses, were exceed ingly lax on the subject of marriage. It edema to have been regarded everywhere as the right of the husband to put away his wife, whenever, for any reason, he became dissatisfied with her ; the right of the wife thus put aWay;to marry another man; and the right of parties that had been divorced, and 'married to other persons, to beconie 'again husband and wife, if a reconciliation should take place, and they should again de- sire to live together. With the exception 4:4 'the judicial lel of the Jews, which posi tively forbade the last of these, and laid, re strictions on the, first, there does not appear to have'been in any nation, till long after the times of Moms, a law to prevent, or even,limit and restrict any of these supposed rights. Have we not, then, abundant rea son to conclude that the Hebrews, during their, residence in Egypt, entertained much the same views on this subject which pre vailedlll'aionid-thein, and that their - lairs and usages conformed, in this respect, as in many others, to the prevailing sentiment, of tha times ? Assumingthat ;their-laws previous to their leaving'Egytt, in reference to this subject, Were 'need onAlie alleged-right of the hus band to put away his wife for trivial reasons, and that such divordes are morally wrong, we have here the very case supposed in my last, And we are to inquire, what - changes in their. previous -laws, on this subject, was Made under-the theocracy ? Let the reader turn to the law of. Moses en this subject ; (Dent xxiv 1-I,)andle mill-perceive that it imposed two restraints on theie usages which, we have every rea son to believe, had, up-to that time, - pre- Veiled among - - that - -;. - -people as' among - 'nll Others, with ; all the force and sanctity of law, if not under that name. Filer re quired-the-formality of a " bill of ivorce ment " , which would necessarily -occasion - some delay—lome time for reffeetion, and thus tend to ;prevent men 'from consumma ting the divorce under the influence of a Sudden impulse or 'passion. Secondly, it made the 'divorce irrevocable,, and there fore a"much more serious affair ttan it was commonly regarded. But, under these restrictions, it allowed - divorce, and the sub- Sequent marriage of both parties. This law, and the. moral ,law relating to the , same snbject, were interpreted by the great Tea Cher, on two occasions. First, in his Sermon on the Mount, (Mat --v. 82;) and, secondly, when the Pharisees after wards same to him and tempting him, in. quired, "Is it lawful for a man to pilt away his wife for every cause?"—Mat. In reference to the judicial law, he 'says " Moses suffered you to put away your wives." Was that sufferance or permission ethical, or only political ? Did it justify the act in the court of conscience, or only in the court of the Jewish magistrate?' Was it such ;a 'Pertniasion as iniplied ;that God approved the act, or at least that he did not disapprove it If, .in my fermer articles, have succeed ed- in showing that the judicial law was not intended to guide to the conscience of individuals in ' determining what was right and What was wrong, lut to the Jewish magistrate in administering justice and maintaining geed order in the state, the question is easily answered. _And , the an. awer must be that where our Lord soya; Moses supra. you, hivmeaning is, Moses directed the - civil "'magistrate; to connive at this evil It must be reit - timbered that tecording to the judiciaLlaw, adultery was eapital. offence. If, therefore , the pro vision contained, in Deut•ssiv had been left out, , it .would have been the duty of the magistrate to put to death both partialk‘who,- having been divorced .for any, ; other -cause-;than the one, specified by our Lord, were m ;subsequently-roaed. Instead of ikeenting all such persons, he was di rected to treat their subsequent marriage as - lawful. He who put away his wife and - Married aneth'eri not to be treated as a felon—he was not -to be arraigned as an offender against the4eace and dignity - of the contnionwtialth. But tlifs did not re lease him from his obligation to obey that law :which had been4,in force -from ,the be-, ginning, and, was obligatory on, the whole .That. this is the substande of our Lord's reply to the Pharisees, an exegesis of the passage will, is-,believed clearly evince. list: It appears from his reference to the institution of marriage. ig Fiom . the begin ning it was not KO Does he not here in tend to affirm thatrtbe rule of duty binding on all mankind, the law of nature or moral law; forbids such divorces ? And is not that law unchangeable ? Or, are we te suppose that' the moral law required one thing froto Adam to; Moses, arid .. another thing ifrom Moses to Christ? Ifirot, are we to suppose CORRAL OF HEALTH, foi T PRES tYTERIAN BANNER AND ADVOCATE. that the Judicial law of the Jews; whileit was in force, suspended this part of the moral law, so as - to release THAT people from the demander& the latter, though it was still obligatory on tle Gentiles ? 2dly. From the reason which our Lord assigns for this permission, we may infer that it did not pertain to the conscience. " Because of the hardness -of your hearts, "I'doees wrote you this precept." Is the standard of duty ever, lowered because of the hardness or depravity of men's hearts? I shall not delay to argue this question, but content myself with saying that an affirma tive answer would open the door to errors subversive of tbe - Gospel. However hard our hearts may become, our, duties and ob. ligations are unchanged. The law demands of all men a perfect heart, and relaxes none of its 'claims in consideration 'of disobedi. ence ,to this great command. With civil laws that are to be adminiiitered.by men, the case is altogether different. Such laws - may and ought to be adapted to what men are, not'to what , their duty to God requires them to be. • idly. The ,. words, ," whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and' shall' marry another, committeth adul tery'," do `not indicate . a change in the law, or a new enactment; they are explanatory; they declare whit the rule of 'ditty has been from the beginning. If the reader, doubts this, and thinks that the word - hereafter is to be understood as qualifying ormodifying the statement, let him turn to the parallel paseige,,(Mat v: 32,) and compare it with: the context. if verse twenty two is explan atory of the sixth' coinmandment, shaving what it always forbade, and verse thirty four of the third commandment, does not a sound exegesis of verses twenty-eight, and thirty-two requite us to understand. thorn' dB explanatory of the 'seventh, and'in tended' to show whatitnlways forbade? 4thly. This view of the meaning of Matt. xix : 4-9, is corroborated by Mal. ii : 14 —l6, where the prophet reproves the Jews for the praetice of divorce, and appeals, in prod of the sinfulness of that practice, to the fact that God created but one wife for the first man. To this appeal. he adds "The Lord, the God of Israel, saith, that he hateth patting away." The putting away or divorce here intended, must have been morally wrong; for there is nothing which God can properly be said to hate, but sin. Will it be alleged that this language Was intended to apply, not to the use, but the abuse'aif the 'permission 'granted in the judicial law ? But no such limitation is either expressed Or implied in the word's of the prophet', On the contrary, the reason ing by. which he enforces the reproof, is equally conclusive against all divorce not sanctioned .by that law which " wits from the beginning." I have dwelt the longer on the interpre tation of the 'law of divorce, because the principle involved has important practical, bearings.; and before I proceed to speak of them, I wish to settle the principle' itself on a' firm basis. In, other words I wish to, show that it was no part of the design of the judicial law—at least those provisions that were founded on the previous laws or usages of the Jews—to teach them what was mor ally right, and what morally wrong, what. God approved and what he disapproved. With a view to the further confirmation of this principle, I have somewhat to say 'in my next, respecting polygamy, .and= other evils which had prevailed' among that peo ple. f.or tte goung. Rose and Nancy, or the Faults of One Norniug. "Close 'the window, and come away from it dear Rose," said Nancy Smith to her sis ter. "Those men are swearing dreadfully ; it is sin even to listen to them." They forget that God hears them," re plied Bose, quitting the window, and that ';every idle word' that men shall speak they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment." "I, remember, not, very long ago," said Nancy, "having read a story of two girls, one kind and good, the other rude and naughty. To the first it was granted as a reward that whenever she spoke, pearls and diamonds should drop from her mouth; the other girl was punished for her faults by scorpions and other reptiles following her words. I have often thought since, that there was much meaning in that tale; that the conversation of the wise is indeed pre cious as jewels, while the speech of the wicked is as scorpions!' "Yes," said Rose, " the words of those bad men will sting them like scorpions at the last day." "0! Rose, let us not judge them, but rather judge ourselves. Not one of us, but, has sinned daily, again and again, with our lips!' , ,"I do not see that," answered Rose, "I am quite sure that I never swear." 44 No, you would tremble to do that, fpr you know the command, 4 Above all things, swear not.'" 44 And I never tell a lie." "No, foryou have been taught that heaven is closed to those whose lips speak falsehood. And yet, dear Rose were an angel to mark down every day all the words that you ut ter, you would find that there was sin in the page ' • " I doubt that," said Rose," "if I were byguar(l . . Let us try; now will you, to morrow 'only to-morrow, mark down every wrong , word which. I say ? I > shall not take up much of your' time, I 'promise you." " Well, Bose, I am willing :to make the trial." Here, then ; is a- pencil and a piece of paper!' "It is, a very small piece, Rose," said Nancy, smiling. it Quite large enough, I am sure for one day. Besides you will see so little of me to-morrow; if the, day .is fine, uncle has promised to call in his. opening cart, and take me to see the school fete in the town. There is to be a band, and such fine doings ! I do so hope that the weather will be bright. Do you think there will be no rain to-mor. row, Nancy ?" u I cannot tell. The sun set in a' bank of Cloud; but I hope the day may be fair." The first thought of Rose as she opened her eyes on the following morning, was: "I hope the weather is fine!' . But S even before she reached the window, hope was changed into disappointment,- as she heard the sound of the pattering 'rain. She looked out; the whole sky appeared leaden and dull, while the heavy shower fell ai though it never would cease. " How provoking—how very provoking !" cried Rose. "It is always so ; whenever one wishes the day to be fine, down comes .the tiresome rain I" Impatient, foolish, unjust words—they were noted down. Nancy and Rose= dressed in silence, the younger sister repeatedly glancing at the' window, and always with a look of vexation. In theirilittle parlor, they met their brother . "What gloriourl rain !" cried the boy; "it will make my 'Seeds grow up twice as fast." . • • " Who cares for your seeds? It will spoil the fete." saießose, impatiently. Ungenerous, selfish, words—they were noted down Poor Rose I" laughed David, "she has lost, an oppurtunitp•of sporting' her fine new ribb )11." • " You are a saucy, provoking boy !" cried Rose, , turning to the window; "I do not care a straw for all the ribbons in the world " Exaggerated 'words---they were noted down. "0, there's ,no use watching the sky," "you had said David;d better take to mend ., mg my stockings. There's rain enough in that cloud to last till this time to-morrow. You May say good bye to the tete at once." "Be silent with your nonsense will you?" exclaimed' the irritated Rose; but David chose to talk. on. it The school- children will wish to change their garlands for umbrellas, as they march to church with their drifrpinc , banners. I wish' I were at the town just to Bee them I" "I wish you were anYwhere but here, selfish, tormenting bey," cried Rose, leaving the room hastily, and slamming the door be hind her. Angry words—they iiererisoted down. •In a short time Ro'se returned ; David had left the house; was the - custom of Rose to read aloud , frotorthe rDible ‘to her sister, every, morning, ;Yd.:afterwards to sing a hymn. She now seated herself opposite to the window, carelessly.opened her book, and, after every : burriedqe,rse, her eye glanced out into the fteld;ito, *fiee'if the rain was begin ning 'abate. S(i when' she sang her hytiani while the name of the Lord - was on her lips, and she sang of his eroasend'suiferings, her eye was ever Wandering, and her manner showed but too plainly the:Cher heart was too far Otherviiie engaged. We - 8116f Such mere lip-service a mocking of religion ?- It was noted down. A few minutes afterwards there was a tap. at the door, and Bell Marks appeared, shook the wet' from her shilling uhbrella, rubbed her shoes, on the mat,' shook hands with the sisters and sat down. "Why, Bell, what brings you through such pelting, rains inquired Nancy. "I thought atop here a few moments for' shelter. Pm on my way to Farmer , Greene's to know - if it's true, that Sally's tufend off."' . " I dare' say it's true enough," said Rose. " I only'wonder that they've let her stay so long. I cannot bear that girl." "Nor I," rested Bell, " she's so proud." " And BO selfish," exelfilined Rose. ' "I wolidef Wha' they 'ava tarried - her off for, though," said , Naney; "that's' what I want to know." - " I dare say," answoreditose, " that she has helped herself in the dairy; Mrs. Green found her cream running + short ; or —Why, Nance ! what are you doing?' added she, suddenly turning round toward. her sister. " There id no room on my paper," said Nancy, quietly laying down the penal. As soon , as Bell had departed, Rose took up the paper with a blushing cheek, and read the record of her " idle words. "0, Nancy !" she cried, "it is not yet ten o'clock, and, all this is written down against if I must give account for every idle4cord spoken in all the years that I have lived and may yet live, where, where shall •I be in the day of judgment?

MENA& EDITORS is sometime Biwa, I have written you from this old city, " away: down'East ;" and indeed there has been little cause for me to write, as your " Eastern Summary," has kept. your read ers so - very well informed of, our mat ters "here in the East." as I have been a weekly reader of your , exeel lent.paper from,. the commencement rof <the Banner, andtan,ocoasional correspondent, it has seemed,meet to me to write. and 'refer, to Amine items =of interest among, us, net named, by you. As Education is a theme ever, prominent among our citizens, both East and West, I will speak of a few points pertaining to .that subject. Our Leaislature has ever been ready to vote money to any object which has given promise of advaninng 'this noble cause,- and they are now about making a permanent an nual appropriation to 'the 44 Massachusetts State Teachers' Association." The dona tions, publionndlorivate to.Hariard College, have given that, corporation. more money than they, know how to expend, while the other Colleges in this Commonwealth, Wil liams and Amherst, have each had large appropriations from the public chest. The amount. raised annually, by taxation, in the State, for our Public Schools, is very large. But all these for the Public Schools and Colleges, scarcely keep pace with that which is annually expended for , private tuition. As a Specimen in proof of this statement, let me inferm your readers that two of the teachers of the Public Schools of Boston, within a abort period, have left their situa tions to 'open Vrivate • schools for young ladieg in this'•iiity. One of them was the master of the, High and Normal School for girls, andlNies receiving tiventyleight dred dollar!' Salary, a year, and the School' Board would have raised it to three tholisand; if he had remained under • their patronage. But he left, and is making five thousand in a private school. This is but one specimen, (though a prominent one,) out of many. But, in all that is expended for education, and in the various plans devised and carried out, to educate our youth, there- has been manifested great neglect of physical train ing ; especially has this been the case athong our girls. Everything but this has been done. But this, in many respects the most important of all, has been neglected, - to,the shame'of the teachers, and the death of the pupils. Recently, however, a benevolent individ ual has donated eight hundred dollars to fu'rnish a gymnasium for Harvard College. Private schools and Seminaries are also coming into this measure. Last Summer, a gentleman of this city, formerly a clergyman, but who left the ,pastoral office on -account of failure of health, and has since been for years a prac ticing physician in Boston, seeing the sad havoc made to female health,• for the want of proper physical training in our schools, private" as well as public, opened an Institute in the neighboring city of RoibUry, to meet this want.. A' notice of this school, under the name of the f 4 Dearborn Institute," was published in your paper. The object was to make a home, where young ladies who wished, to study, should be provided with. Competent teachers, and those who had health, should have every measure used' to preserve it, and- those who had l it not, and were unable 'to study, should hive every possitile measure used to restore it. The success, was considerable, and pupils, or patients, or both, came from different Stitt( It waslound, however, that Roxbury was not the best place for such an Institute, and it has been removed into Boston. It is now,.so far as the health, physical; training, and medical attendance upon the pupils, is 'Concerned, under the supervision of Dr. Wm. M.:Cornell,-of Boston. The teachers in the school are of tlae first order, and ex perienced in instructing. It is making. a "home" for several young married ladies, (whose hutibands are called abroad by busi -nese ) ) Who-are not in very'good health, or who wish to' perfect themselves in some parrioular'branohis of study, as well as for young ladies and misses. But the chief feature in which this school differs , from " most others, is in the physical training, and devotion to the health of all the inmates, " It is, in this respect,", says a prominent, friend of Education, ," just what is *anted." It is a pleasing-feature of our times, that more attention itbeing paid to health, upon which usefulness," comfort; andlifei are so dependent. * Nrialtural. Trusting...to a Si4le Crap: There is no crop that does not fail Rome. times, though there are a feW 'which' are never wholly cut off in any season. Grass, for example, always yields a partial orop, and a person may, if need be, depend 'wholly upon this product as a means of enbaistence. The' same thing; however, can hardly be said"of any other staple crop. Innumerable illustrations might be given of the danger of depending upon a single crop. The re= suit in Ireland of relying , upon the Totato crop is patent. The &Hite of the Wheat crop, in many parts of this country; has in volved thousands of farmers in debt; which it will take years of toil 'and economy to liquidate. A friend at the West had been so successful in raking peaches, that he turned his whole attention to that 'dep. Last year he; realized a' large net - prott,', and looking for still greater results , this year; he laid out liis plans accordingly, and '`incurred considerable debts to be paid from the 'pro ceeds of his peaches. The result is, that from five or , six thousand trees - het gathers scarcely two bushels of marketable fruit. A mixed enitivation is the - safest in the long run. If the potato crop fails, let there be corn, wheat, barley, or other grain to fall back upon. The chances' of utter 'failure are diminished a thousand fold Where there are three or four -different- crops under cul ture.

THE LI VER PILLS, For the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS, all BILIOUS DERANGEMENTS, SICK IIEAD-ACHE, &c. cases of FEVER AND AGUE ) preparatory to or after taking Qui nine, they almost invariably make a speedy and permanent cure. As specifici for the above men ` tinned diseases, they are Unrivaled, and never known to fail when ad ministered in accordance with the directions. Their unprecedented popularity has induced the proprietors, FLEMING BROTHERS, PITTSBURGH, PA. to dispose of their Drug business, in which they have been success fully engaged for the last Twenty Years, and they will now give their undiVided time and attention to their manufacture. And being de termined that Dr. MEarie's Cele brated Vennifuge and Liver Pills shall continue to occupy the high position they now hold among the great remedies of the day, they will continue to spare neither time nor expense in procuring the Best and Purest material, and com pound them in the most thorough manner.
