reign all the oatward marks of respect for the ancient religion. The altars of Apollo were covered with his votive offerings. The emblems of tha t e rod were assumed as his own, and he was accus to point to the sun as his visible protector and guide. At a later period. carried away by the current of opinion, he declared himself a convert to the church. Chris tianity, then, or what he was pleased to call by that name, became the law of the land, and the edict of A.D. 321, being unrevoked, was enforced as • Christian ordinal. ee. These facts eau emir be met by an appeal to the spirt, and giving up the letter of the original iasti tutioo. It is said that provided we observe with sincerity of purpose one day in seven as a sabbath, even it we err in observing a different day to that named in the decalogue, we sufficiently comply with the law. This is to take the position of Naarnan the Syrian, when commanded to bathe in the Jordan: — "Are not the rivers of Datuakcus better than all the waters of Israel? May I not wash in them and bo clean ?" But not to contest this point, and not to insist upon a strict interpretation of the language of the apostle who places sabbaths and circumcision in the same category, as both belonging to an abro gated cote, we pose to another and an important part of the inquiry—what was originally meant by keeping a sabbath? In what sense were the words intended to be undirstood—P Remember the sabbath day to keep it htdy ?" We may observe in the New Testament a distinc tion drawn between the Sabbath instituted by Moses, and the Rabbinical or Pharisaical Sabbath. 'nit. distinction requires to be marked. And first of the Mosaic Sabbath. The word " Sabbath" signifies screnth : and, in al secondary sense, rat. It is derived from Laba, seven. The Laba day was a rest day, or public holiday, and thus " seventh " and " rest " come to be regarded as synonymous. The Hebrew term translated " holy" is Kadurh, and signifies &pirate. The fourth com mandment may therefore be reuderid " Remember the seventh dal to keep it s: partite ;" and there terms convey its full meaning. The command is nut " Remember the seventh dcv to keep it with solrmaity." nor " Remember the Sabbath day to devote it exclusively to sacrificial or other ri vgious rites;' the injunction is simply to keep it " separate " from other days, and the explanation of the mode of keeping it separate is given with the tea*. Other dap were working days; this was to be free from labour. . _ - - - - The word holiday, althnigh from Aotrilay, is still em• plojed is this r.slricted souse, but the word " holy," taken 1., rself, has now become so associated in our minds with pur.taaieal ideas of seltmortiheation, and with modern religious fora' of worship, that we are greatly misled by it from the meaning it W.ll intended to convey. Many pious persons suppose that the command to keep the Sabath-day ho!y was cquivaliut to an injunction to attend • parish church, hear two , r more sermens in the course of the Sun day, and during fse rest of the day to keep in-doors and rend the Bible. The Jews, however, did not do this, for the Bible was not written, and sermons in its exposition (which wooed have wanted teats) could not well be preached. Nur does it appear, from any passage in the books of Moses, that r..ligions admonitions or discourses of any kind formed a part of the Tabernacle service. Nor is even prayer mentioned as an Important port of public worship. The tell. Iti.)ui worship of the Jews at the time of Moses conaistid wholly of the ceremonials of offerings and sacrifices; which were not csnticied to Sabbaths. but we re continuous throughout the week, and throughout each day of the week. The public service of the Tabernacle was the daily and an evening sacrifice of "a lamb of the first year, " without blemish, as a burnt-uttering. Oa Sabbaths the service was the same, with this differenm only, that, in stead of one lamb, two lambs were then offered. The Tabernacle, hoses etc (as subsequently the Temple), was always open far the reception algid' to the altar, the times for preseating which depended upon crops, and seasons, and the convenivuea of individuals. The ceremonial for them must have Min short, from the multitudes who attended, and it was orbs* confined in each case to a short invoca tiois and blessing. The books of Moss prescribe with great minuteness the nature of the off:rings to be made, se adapted to the circumstances of both poor and rich ; but there is not a word of reference in the Pentateuch to offerillgS or sscrill.:es as peculiar Sabbath duties. The Jewish lawgiver was not an ascetic; nor was asceti cism the character generally of ancient worship. Moses instituted numerous festivals, but not a single tart. Fasts were all of Rabbinical origin. In common with the eastern mafioso, the Jews observed a mourning festival at the autumnal equinox, which with them was held on the tenth day of the seventh month. This day was to be a Sabbath ea which they were " to Alice" their souls, and offer bees of atonement—the may instance of the word Sabbath being connected with sorrow mad it was to he a tenth not a seventh day that was to be so 'Merced. The most solemn festival of the Jews was that of the Passover, but it was tailed a feast, not shut; and as a feast, or amid festival, they were taught to observe it. They were told to kill sad roast a lamb, the whole of which was to be eats* before the nest morning ; and they were to eat it with ualeavened bread and bitter beeheowt keaw more unpalatable than other food, but as a notatedel of the haste of their departure from Egypt.

That the religious festivals of the Jews were not asevile, but joyous in a bona fide team, Is further demonstrated by the fact tb.t they were occasions for dancing. When florid brought the ark from the house of Obed.edom, the Gittite, he not only sacrificed "oxen and fatlings," but "danced before the Lord with all his might." TM ark was brought in the City of David with " shouting and the sound of the trumpet,' the Meg himself 'shift the ezam ple of " leaping and iisailei bars dr Lt' This wee sot a new or an emeeptiesal custom, ahheagh David's wife Michel, apposes le have been scandalised - by etiehag her husband so forgetful of his royal dignity as to denes - " as covered," girded only with " a lea tithed • " lea we dad at ao earlier peeled, that the of lb; Sol Ilea and overthrow of therfilatines was le moan misliseed with singing sad deasiag.

The Psalmist says Praise the Lord with the sound of the trumpet; praise him with the psaltery and harp : praise him with the dm. brel and dance. " Many pious persons eerier dancing at any time en it religious custom, but this is evidently not tee doctrine of the Bible. Not only is dancing nowhere:condemned in the scriptures,--while the "solemn meetings" of the Rabbinical 0 New.moons and Sabbaths" are denounced by Isaiah as en iniquity and en abomination,—but dancing is spoken of by Jiremial as one of the national customs of 'the Jews to be restored when they return to their own land; for. " Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together ; for I will turn their mourning into joy, sod will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.** • Patting ill these facts together, we may form a very dis• tint notion of the nature of Stbbath•day observe:Kt, smog the aacient Israelites. The leading object was not roUgien, in oar sense of the term, but relaxation. Religion. however, wu no doubt so far connected with it that the people &needed on the Sabbath day, whenever they could conveniently do so, " the morning and evening RClifiCllll," The interval between them, we may be morally certain, wee devoted to the miecellaneous objects of rational memation. The Rabbinical Sabbath wu the Sabbath of Pe aaaoe—the Sabbath of ceremonial observances carried N far beyond their original intent as to townie idolatress—the Sabbath of superstition, which Christ, not less than Isaiah, emphatically condemned, but which modern puritanism is seeking to revive. In the eyes of the Pharisees, Christ was • Sabbath breaker. Ile desired to protest against those morbid views of religion which prevailed in his own time; and. as if to rebuke by anticipation those modern sabb•tarians who regard a Sunday walk as a crime, we find him in the green fields on the 'abbath day, permitting . his disciples to pluck the ears of corn to satisfy their hunger. Some are willing to admit that works of chanty and necessity may be performed on the Sabbath day; bat was this one of them? Could not Christ have found another place of meet ing, and other food for his disciples, without violat ing a rule of customary obligation, if he had wished it to be observed P We must break off here, although the views we have sketched are followed up at great length by the author ; but we have no space for further comment. Enough has been Pia. !^ elow that the adencates of Sunday restrictions rest their case altogether upon a false basis, and wo hope to awaken 'spirit of inquiry in those among them w h ose minds, in spite of early pre judices, may yet be open to conviction. THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 23, 1852. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—Yoax, Dec. 22. Swum Ma. James Wi=um Tim HULL QAIOTTI Mumma. Last evening sleight o'clock, after two days patient in vestigation, Mr. Justice Willisms concluded his charge in the ease of asap* and fiesith, charged with the murder of Mr. fitsplethorpo at Hull, and of the two women charged al accessories. The jury expressed a wish to retire, and the Crier of the court swore a bailiff" to keep them in some safe end con venient place, without meat, drink, and Are candle-light excepted, excepted, until they had agreed upon their ve rdict." Three or four of the jurors had left the box, when one of them, Mr. James Thornbrougb, of Halifax, wee suddenly seised with a fainting at, and became insensible. Mr. Boulter, surgeon, Hull, was in court, and be promptly attended upon Mr. Thornbrough, who, it was said, might remain mown- *Mous for several hours. His tottlebtp iMasenuently directed Mr. Mealier to be sworn tz at t en d . i up= t h e n jurui, whit the proviso that he should neither speak to him nor any of the jurymen in refer ence to the trial they had heard. The jury then retired, Mr. Thornbrough Leing curled out in • very weak and exhausted state. It was about seven o'clock when the trial concluded. His lordship we. conveyed in the high sheriff's carriage to the oMeial residence in Lendal, and returned to court at ten o'clock. The learned judge directed the jury to be called into court, and that having been done and their names read over, Mr. Boulter, on oath, stated that Mr. Thornbrough, although considerably reco vered from his attack, was quite incompetent to perform hie duties as 'juryman. Tea, sandwiches, and other refresh ments being provided to the jury, his lardship discharged them, directing that a new trial should take place on the to:lowing morning. Mr. Thornhrough'a illness was attri buted to the extreme heat of the court, and onceming into a cooler atmosphere he began rapidly to recover. Being weak and exhausted a supply of food would have restored him; but as none of the jurors were allowed by the bailee oath to have either meat or drink until they had delivered their verdict, and the judge having no power to dispense with that oath, the only alternative left was to dis charge tire jury. NEW TIDAL. This morning, at 8 o'clock, the learned judge took his seat upon the bench, and the same jury were empannelled, with the exception of the gentleman wbo had been attacked with illness on the previous night, another juror being sworn in his place. Mr. Hensley said he was placed in a position of extreme difficulty in this very serious and important case. His learned friend Mr. Seymour, thinking, of course, that in the natural order of things the cue would have concluded on the previous night, had left the city for London, and therefore John Smith was deprived of his very able assis tance. Under these circumstances, if he were left to him self, he should have applied to his lordship to postpone the ease to the next assists, in order that it could not be said that there bad been any haste in trying the case, or that the prisoner John Smith had been depraved of the invaluable as sistance of his counsel. As far as he was per sonally concerned for the prisoner Snape, if all other thing, had been equal, he should have asked that' the case should go on now, because be was anxious it should be concluded. However, he had consulted with the attorney for the defence, and also spoken to the prisoners ; he had made them understand their position, and they said under these circumstances they would infinitely prefer that the cur should go on, and he had to ask if his lordship would approve of his conducting the defence of the two prisoners Smith as well as that of Snaps ? The learned Judge said he thought it was as excellent arrangement, and he had no doubt that Mr. Dearsleywould do ;justice to the prisoners. His lordship suggested that those witnesses who had spoken to undisputed facts should not be re-examined, but that he should read over from his notes what they had said at the previous trial, and inquire of them if that was what they could prove. The suggestion of the learned judge was approved of by the learned counsel on both aides, and it was consequently adopted. The same learned counsel appeared for the prosecution se in the first trial ; Mr. Dearsley was for the three prisoners, Mau, Smith, and Ann Smith, the latter of whom was un defended at the previous trial, and Mr. Overeud repre sented Mary Ann Robinson. Mr. Warren proceeded to state the case to the jury. lie said that owing to an almost unpreeedeuted occurrence, he was called upon to again state the circumstances of a most painful anddeeply interesting case. He was glad that the whole of the Jury, with one exception, had had the advan tage of the speeches of his learned friends who defended the prisoners, and the luminous summing up of his lordship. The learned counsel then recapitulated the whole history of the murder, in order that the new juryman might become acquainted with the facts of the case. The witnesses for the prosecution were then examined in the manner agreed upon by the 1 d judge and the commie. The ease was proceeding when or report left York. BIIFORZht. JURTICII !Kranz* AND RONDZIIT.—CAUITAL CONVICTION. James Bar Dour. 21, was indicted for the wilful murder of Alexander 1146140 n, at Sheffidd, ou the 3rd of September lest. The prisoner, who was dressed In a suit of black, and who is a young man of respectable appearance, pleaded " not guilty " both to the indictment and the coroner's in quisition. Mr. Overend, Mr. Pickering, and Mr. Johnson were for the prosecution ; and Mr. Earjeant Wilkins (specially re tained), and Mr. Hardy conducted the defence. The facts of this ease, as disclosed on the investigation before the coroner's jury and the magistrates, have already appeared at full length in our columns. This jury retired to consider their verdict at five minutes to three, and after an absence of a quarter of as hour they Married into court with a verdict of Guilty. Mr. Justice Talfourd thereupon sentenced the prisoner to be hanged. The prisoner with great coolness remarked, " Thank you, my lord ; I'm innocent." SOCIETY OF ARTS. EXHIBITION OF PHOTOGRAPHS.

The lecture was delivered by Mr. Roan Factor, one of the exhibitors ; and we give passages as stating broadly the general objects and results of the exhibition. Speaking Of the technical progress in the art, he observed— " Now deoxidising agents have been brought into general use, and the surface of the paper has been rendered smooth and more glossy, so that it will take a sharper negative int preen's. Means have also been adopted for keeping it in • sensitive state for a longer time uninjured.

Vics-aunsuee DITAAT. GOODWIN V. FIELDING. Mr. Daniel irist4;W moved for an in junction to restrain the defendants from obstructing the plaintiff and his servants from entering upon the Beulah Spa Hotel and the gardens attached thereto, at Norwood, near the New Crystal Felice ; and also from parting with the same, or the goodwill and stock in trade, except under the order of the court. In last October the defendant, Mrs. Fielding, the lessee of the property for a term or which two yearn were unexpired, entered into an agreement with the plaintiff, the ground landlord, to surrender the hotel and grey nds to him (the plaintiff), in consideration of a sum of 3601. The plaintiff therefore entered into an auce- ment with a third person to grant a lease of the hotel for 215 Teats to him. The defendant (Mrs. Fielding), however, whilst this negotiation was going on, appears to have re pented of her bargain, in consequence of the increase in value of the property by reason of the erection of the Crystal Palace in the neighbourhood; and she entered into an agreement with the other defendant (Franks) to assign to him her interest in the term. Mr. Bacon and Mr. Druee, on behalf of Frank. opposed the motion, upon the ground that what was sou ght to be restrained had alre td y actually been done. Mr. Mains and Mr. W. D. Lewis appeared for Mrs. Fielding. The Vice-Chancellor said that, as the assignment sought to be restrained had been made, the court could nut restrain it by injunction. The motion stood over, Mrs. Fielding undertaking not to part with the licences in the mean. time. Fort rtr.ens.prews Thum MoNIYPUIXT r. Mr. Southgate was heard in reply. His Honour gave judgment; and after stating the facts and the substance of the deed, which have been already re ported, said, the deed in effect provided that the plaintiff, having purchased the equity of redemption in the estates in question fur 1,1001., and covenanted to psy 1,000!. to unify Sir Benjamin Wall, the fist incumbnuavr, conveyed the estates to trustees, in trust, to sell within two years, and pay Sir Benjamin Wall his debt, and then to pay the plain tiff 4,000/. ; then to pay other incumbrances, and then to divide the surplus among the creditors;; and there was • covenant by certain parties, if the estates were not sold within the two Benjamin to purchase the equity of redemption' for 4,000! . Sir Benjamin Wall refused to stay his proceed ings in the Encumbered Estates Court for the 1,0001. ; and , 'that sum was therefore not paid by plaintiff. &hordes, a judgment creditor, entered his claim in the Encumbered Estate Court, and the estates being sold produced, after paying Wall, only 1 ; 8001, which was ordered to be paid to Sc hoales.,T he plaintiff claimed th is mousy under the deed,and sought to restrain proceedings at law taken by the defend ant, claiming that &bades wu trustee for him to recover it. He (the Vice-Chancellor) thought that as no steps bad been taken to impeach the deed it must be taken to be I valid, and to give plaintiff a title. But when called on to interfere by injunction, he must consider the dealings of all parties. The 1,000!. wu he excused binned on the ground that the defendant had undertaken that Wall should receive that sum, and not proceed in the Encumbered Estates Court, and that under taking had failed, but he could not find any such under- 1 taking, and on that ground alone he might refuse to inter fere. But there were ether grounds. The plaintiff might have made his claim in the Encumbered Estates Court, but had done so. Further he was not satisfied that this transaction was not of such a nature as to be invalid at law on the ground of usury. It might be • contract to advance 2,1001., and to receive at the end of four years the sum of 4,0001. upon the security of lend. He did not de ride that question, and there was enough without it to in. fines him to refuse to interfere summarily.

The profits were put down at 1201.; trade and personal ex penses, about 9001.

The clause were resisted on the ground that the com plainants were not able seamen, end were incompetent to the duties which they had undertaken. The men futons to avert that they were able seamen in the ordinary sense of the word, but alleged that they had been engaged at 101. a month in Sydney, the captain well knowing the ex tent of the articles._ The contract having been put in, Todd was sworn, and said he was offered 451. for the run from Sydney to London, or 101. per month, whi:hever he liked to take, and ke 'hipped for the latter sum, to do the best he could. lie had been 12 years an able seaman, and was afterwards stevedore's man for 9 years at Sydney. He tweed in the Rubins, man-of war, as ordinary and able I seaman, for 31 years, and was in the Clyde, sloop-of-war, as an able seaman, for 5 years. He then went to Calcutta in a merchant ship, and came from Calcutta to Sydney in the Lord Lowther, East Indiaman. Mr. Yardley questioned Todd on his seamanship, and ho said that he always took his turn at the wheel and went aloft ; but on one occasion, while at the wheel, he was caught in a gale of wind, and a sail was carried away. He went to the wheel after that. There were five or six hands short on board coming home. There were only six able seamen, including Limself, and two ordinary seamen, to work a ship of 387 tons register. Captain White, whom he bad known a longtime, stopped him in a street in Syd ney while he was in liquor, and asked him to join his ship, and said, Will you take 451. by the run, or 101. per month 1" He was then taken to Mr. John Campbell, the agent of the vessel, his port elearanee and papers were taken away from him, and be was made to sign a paper, and re ceived 101. advance.

Captain White knew him well, and knew that be had not been at sea for nine years when be took him sway. Smith, the other complainant, said Capt. White engaged him and gave him the alternative of 451. by the run, or 101 per month. He told him he bad not been at sea for six years, and should feel very strange at his work; and the captain said, " Never mind ; we'll get the ship to London some how." Ile was made drunk, taken to the agent's office, when he signed something, received a 101. advance note, and was sent on board before he knew well what he wan about. _ . Mr. Yardley—How came you to leave Sydney ? Smith—Through my own foolishness. I left 101. per month as stoker of a steamer. Captain White persuaded me to go against my will. I went oat in the Sir Robert Peel as an able seaman six years ago. Another witness supported the representations of the claimants, and Mr. Yardley gave judgment for the amount claimed, adding, that it was doubtful policy to question in London bargains made in Sydney, except fraud had been practised.
