The Sun. — London, England, 1820-11-15 00:00:00

FOR THE SUN. Ma. EDlTOR—Without disparagement to any of its cotemporaries, THE SUN is pretty ge nerally regarded as a proper and consistent vehicle for moral sentiments. Should you deem the following observations-on a subject now be fore the public calculated to promote the service of Morality, I doubt not that you will give them currency in your columns. AN OLD CORRESPONDENT OF THE SUN. Nov. I t. 1820. ON DIVORCE Vie variety of opinions expressed on the sanction which reii t .;ion affords to itivoiec must be pregnant with doubts to every religions Tis variety appears to hare arisen, its some degree, from a too limited reference to the sacred texts. To cite the sth of Mattlfw, without comparing that passage witlk other texti,,is to take a partial view, anti may induce Vie formation of a partial opinion. Tai understand the Christian Legislatot's ofdinance, it nia). be well to advert to the circumstances which occasioned the. appeitl made to biro by the Pharisees. They of the school of !fillet differed very widely from the disciples of Samurai, as to the causes which admitted of Divorce. Each party found ed the legality of Divorce on the same authdrity (I). But while they of the latter school limited its operation to cases of adultery (1), the d4ciples of Hind gave it a most exten- sive range, affirming that it wai lawful for a man to put away his wife on account of any dislike whatsoever. 'rills variety of opinion among their teachers gore a col o n• for the vilest abuies of either .enet ; twit practices the most, shameful pre- ca'slyd in cu,sequencc, according In Joseph us. in that nation. Now, Sir, I cannot but think that the 27th and 21tii r. 5. Nlat- thew, stand very closely in connelcion with the snhjeet 'l' e " Ye hare heard `."l"hou shalt not con,- SAsloortherc introduces it by a reference, that it_ was said by than of old time, —The Christian Legislator expounds, or, per haps, extends this LaW to Chastity of Ileart as well as, of But I say unto you, that whosoever 1061seth upon a woman to lust after her, bath already committed adultery frith her in his heart." Then (after shewing the necessity mit adultery of purity in. a Christian, by declaring it profitable that one member should perish, rather than the Whole body,) the Saviour continues, " It had been said, whosoever Shall put away his wife, let hint give her a writing of Divorcement." To this he applies a correction—" But I say unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, saving fur the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery." Ani lastly we bare this clause. " Whosoever shall marry her That is so absolved (C4itaXE)tiqi-E7riv)comatitteth adultery." Front the saving clause, the legality of divorce, " for the cause of fornication," may be inferred ; and, so far, it may be r e tarded as restoring the law of divorce to its Mosaic s►andard: From the last clause, it appears, that whosoever shalt wed the adulteress offends against the Seventh Corn ;,ncinsent. It k worthy of remark, that this is spoken when .our Lord rats set (accarding to the custom of the Jewish 6 , ctors, on the brow ola mountain—a little to the north of Tabor", ac- cording to Matt ntlrel)—to the multitudes which followed him from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and from beyond ,Tor 4 to If we comparg this with what is recorded (in the l9th chap ter,of the same Evangelist) to have occurred in " the coasts of ;Judea beyond Jordan," when the Pharisees came to him, tempting him," - with this question, "-Is it lawful for a mau pot away his wife for every cause?" (:).in.sfv, f au lt) we 0,„11 find, that the answer ref rs them, not to their own polity, but to the original marriage institution. " ilave ye not read tlrat tLe Creator made the sexes, and said, for this cause shall a m In le4ve father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, a:141 they twain shall be one flesh." The conjugal bond is here i.roved to he of Divine authority, and stronger than those bb4l :arc/Tons wf►ich re,ide in every good heart. The next sentence indicates the indissoluble character of the union— St`;%at God, therefore, bath joined together, let no man pot asunder." Anyunprepithced auditor of this conference might deem this a. concluse correction of the abuses introduced by the School of Mlle!. But this was too grievous a correction for that "adulterous and sinful gen'eration." The question is, therefore, moulded into another form, and quoting a portion only of Moses's permission (dexterously omitting the clause which requires the husband to find " some uncleanneFs in -her," whereon to found a claim of divorce), they make this reninder,—" Then, why did Moses command to give a writ ing of di;orcement, and to put her away ?"—little expecting tbr, obviously just reply,—" Because of the hardness of your lieart,s !" Here is the key stone of the permission given by, the 3.ewish Legislator. Onr Lord then refers-again to the primitive institution, " From the beginning it was not so," arrd repeats what he himself had said in his sermon on time mount. . This account coincides so well, in the main points, with the reta.tion given by Saint 11.1 ark, that, we may safely consider it -as the sauie event, related by two historians. But from these, and the account in the 16. c. Luke, it seems that our Lord pre a similar inter pretation at three different times, and on as many different occasions. On the last, the Pharisees are said to (*Y-Yxr . rifik .o o have derided him by scornful gestures, or contortions of visaze. Here the Saviour, in re ferring. to the Law, declares that " not one tittle of it shall fail." Saint Luke records an interpretation of the Law of Dirorcesimilar to that in St. Matthew, but without any saving Clause. Happily for us, mankind are not left to form opinions upon this subject on their own conjectures. An Apostle has given us an imperishable commentary on all the three pas sa►es contained in the Evangelists; which shews that the Word of God is not confined to this or that place or nation, but is unchangeable as himself:- It-appears from Juvenal's 6th Satire (8), that St. Paill had (1) "When a man bath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in hie eyes, because he bath found some uncleanness io her, then let him write her a Bill of Divorcement; and give it in her, hand, and send her out of his house. And when she is departed out of his house, she may go, and be another wife. And if the latter husband hate ber,and welts her a Bill of Divorcement,et cetera, or if he die, her former husband may not take her again." . , (2; 22 c. Dent. v. 22. " If a' man he found lying with a woman mat tied to an husband, then they shill both of them dig—so ihalt thou put away evil from Israel !" (3) Jnvenal (Sat. 6. line 222-230) describes the laxity which prevailed among the Romans in divorce cases " Hoc volo, sir jobeo, sit, pro ratione, voluntas," says the wife, and accordingly " imperat, ergo viro." But mark what follows • " Nott-limc regna reliquit, permotatque downs, et tlanimea• cooterit inde Avolat, et sin eti repetit vestigia lecti," et ese*era, to line 230. Having constituted her will as her rule of life, she is at length divorced from one husband, plays t tie same game with a second, and a third, to an rig hth, the utmost extent of divorce cases allowed by the Roman Law. but two strong reatons for hiraddress to the notuans on ibis point—" The woman Which harts an husband, is bound by the law to her husband so bongos he Berth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then, if, aline her husband liceth, she be warned to another man, she shall be called an adulteress." Neither were the Greeks left unguardedly to their vices, when converted to Chris tianity. The Apostle (in the 10th verse of llis 7th Chapter to the Corinthians) refers his Disciples to what the Chveis tian Legislator commands in the iffth Luke, and 19th Mat• thew:—" Let not dre wife depart from her husband! But, and if she depart, let her remain unmanied, or be reconciled to her hosi) yid ; and let nut the husb,ind put away his wife." To thi, command of God, he subjoins his own advice—" What knowest thou, 0 wife, whether thou shalt sat•e thy husband ? Or briw knowest thou, 0 mail, wjivther thou shalt save wife ?" • What motive for mutual forbearance, society, help, and comfort, can an immortal being have greater that) this in the c o nnubial state! From these various texts of Holy Writ, the Divine institu tion, the indissoluble character, and the purity of the conju gal vow is apparent. And where it has been violated, mutual forbearance is advised by an Apostle. A short view of the form used by our church in the soletunization of matrimony will shew how agreeable the Church of Eagl,u►4 ►►octrine is to the word of God. After it bath witnessed the mutual vow of pur;ty, fidelity, love, honour, and protection, under every calamity, and of mutual forbearance for better or worse as to the spiritual mind, until the stroke of death shall sever the bond, the Mi Mister of, God repeats the Christian Legislator's words, "'Chose whom God bath joined together, let no wan put asunder." 1 The formula of our Church coincides exactly with the doc trine of Clnist, and with the commentaly on it, delivered by his Apostle. The tom is too clearly expressed to admit of doubtful constrocthin of its spirit. As a religions !oleo, trity, it admits of no exception, I% saving for the cause of for nicatio Divorce is fur that cause as expedient now a 5. it bath been heretofore in ciril polity The reason for this polity Ind Is good after a lapse of nineteen centuries—it is '' Because of the hardness of men's hearts."

To the east of Plea sant-row is Crescent-place ; opposite what was formerly named the Bowling-green, is another row of houses. Ou the west of Prospect 'House Academy now appears a large handsome mansion, with a terrace and balcony, towards the sea, out offices and gardens. But the greatest ornament is on the. London Road, near Brook's. here a beautifully uniform esplanade is rising up; the houses are composed of the finest bricks, a principal one is taken by Lord Maynard for three years. Near the venerable church dedicated to St. John, new streets are forming, with their elevations about two thirds carried up, in the same period of time. The excavations made by the sea during the preceding winter were carried to a fearful ex tent. The rude blasts in March last carried away kgreat part of the cliff at the head of the fort steps, leaving a huge mass of rock quite iso lated ; the water then made its way into the sub terraneous part of that noble structure deuumi nated Cobb's Brewhouse. Yesterday afternoon a fire broke out in a. range of back premises belonging to Mr. Myers, a cow keeper, in Mile,end Old Town, which, before it could be got under, completely destroyed the whole, together with some provender ; but it was fortunately prevented from communicating to the dwelling-houseP PRICE 0 STOCKS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. :,,, Bank Stock • 4171 Bank Long' Ann. 174 IS- 16 ' - 0 3 licT Cent, lied. 6Si ii India Bonds .... 26 5 . iiil' l S per Cent.
