By order of the Committee, GEORGE WILSON, Chairman. THE CHRISTENING of his ROYAL HIGHNESS the PRINCE OF WALES suggests the propriety of recording on the same day the formation of a CHARITABLE FUND, for the relief-of a numerous class of individuals, whose wants arise from accident or misfortune, during their labours in, and connected with, Gas Light Esta blishments. His Royal Highness's Grandsire, the late Duke of Kent, was prominent amongst the Members of the Royal Family in affording encouragement to the earliest efforts of the late Mr Winsor. since the year 1800, in proving the practicability of the application of gas lights to useful and public purposes. The last Prince of Wales, acting as Regent, in the name of King George the Third, granted, with the authority of Par liament, a Charter of Incorporation to the Gas Light and Coke Company founded by the late Mr. Winsor, whose la bours thus furnished the example which has been followed du ring' the last thirty years in almost every city and town. For the benefit the working classee, and others who have been engaged in Gas-light Works, and are reduced to dis tress, or have left helpless families unprovided for, it is pro posed to establish a Permanent Fund, to be called the WINSOR FUND," as a testimonial to the services of the Originator of Pulic Gas lighting. Contributions to this Fund (however small) will be in vested by Trustees, and the interest applied, under the con troul of a Committee, to be named at a meeting of the contri butors, a list of whom, with an audited account, will be pub lished periodically. Contributions will be, for the present, received by F. A. Winsor, Esq., barrister•at-1 aw, 57, Lincoln's Inn-fields, Lon don, to whom all communications on the subject are requested to be addressed.

CAUTION. —The extraordinary demand for PARR'S LIFE PILLS has induced several shopkeep ers, of mean and dishonest principles, to try to impose on the incautious various counterfeits composed of the most per nicious ingredients, merely for the sake of reaping an extra profit, totally regardless of the dreadful consequences which must ensue. Observe, that each Box of the genuine medicine has pasted round it the Government Stamp, in which is engraved these words, PARR'S LIFE PILLS, in white letters on a red ground. None other can be genuine. In no instance has this invaluable medicine failed to effect a perfect cure where due patience and perseverance has been ex ercised.

The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, usele.s, and even bad books. With the force •f this prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common stamp.

These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day."—i6AIALT, chap. 65, verses 8, 5. These words were applied to a sect among the Jews, who, though the greatest of sin- ners, proclaimed themselves the only " sane. tified ones" of the earth. But the de scription is not confined to that " stiff necked and rebellious people," for a similar sect has been the bane of almost every religious community since the days of the prophets, and in no country has it manifested itsel fin more unseem- ly and repulsive forms than among the religious, moral, and intelligent people of Scotland. At present the sect has gained a greater ascendancy and become more intolerable than, perhaps, at any former period. Certain ministers in the Kirk exhibit all its worst qualities in perfection. They will admit no merit, no practical religion, no knowledge of Divine truth in those who hap pen conscientiously to differ from them. Con trary to the express commands of our Saviour they make long prayers, they shut up the kingdom of Heaven against others; when they fast, they disfigure their faces that they may appear unto men to fast; they forgive not men their trespasses, but punish with unrelenting cruelty; when con tradicted, they revile and disdain to reason ; they pervert Scripture for their own selfish purposes ; and when their hypocrisy and unchristian spirit are exposed to public scorn, they rage and storm, like the thief whoswears he is an honest man. We have been led to these reflections by perusing what is called a reply to an article from The Sun of Wednesday, 24th November, 1841, on the " Observance of the Sabbath." The writer has not thought proper to give his name, and merely subscribes to the effusion the gene ral epithet " Fellow Citizen." But he cannot conceal the fact that he belongs to the race we have just described. The traits of character are too strongly marked to be mistaken, and we have no hesitation in asserting that he is one of the Ministers of Glasgow—a Rev. Non-Intrusionist —a Sabbath worshipper—a Pharisee. Not aware that he belongs to this sect, he thus graphically describes them :—" In nothing bad the Phari sees more completely obscured the law of God, than in the matter of the Sabbath. The side on which they erred was a superstitious adherence to externals of their own invention, while they were destitute of the devotional spirit." In order to show the incalculable injury these modern Pharisees are inflicting on pure Christianity, we wrote a lecture for them two months ago, which, from its strict adherence to truth and Scriptural authority, has excited dire indignation. The rage at first appears to have been such, that they could not write or speak on the subject with com mon decency. At the end of fifty days, how ever, there was a show of returning reason, which, even after this lapse of time, is sufficiently disturbed. The condition of thepatient during the paroxysm may be imagined from the follow- ing epithets and paragraphs with which the Rev. Gentleman adorns his production :—" The sneer of an Editor"—" libeller." " Nobody in Scotland would have written such nonsense, and I wonder how, after it was written in the smoke of London, any Scotsman was foolish enough to reprint it." (Why then answer it?) " Miserable sophistry" —" wolf in sheep's clothing." These denote the blind rage of this minister of peace, who has lec tured his congregation no doubt on the sinfulness of passion, and taken for his text, " Blessed are the meek; for they shall inherit the earth." We take for our text, " Blessed are the merciful," and in no instance, perhaps, was mercy more required, for the senses of the writer appear still bewildered. " Our Sabbath," says he, "is the seventh day." We have been taught by our Church, and the Kirk teaches the same, that the Christian Sabbath is the first day of the week. Is this clergyman a Jew in disguise ? Leaving him, however, to settle these matters with his fellow-citizens, we come to the main points set forth in the previous article in The Sun —namely, that the " chosen people " alone were enjoined to obey thewish Sabbath; that Moses, at the conclusion of the fourth commandment, gave reasons why it should be observed ; that the Jewish Sabbath is abo lished by the consent of all Christians ; and that neither our Saviour nor the Apostles, in the numerous commands which they left to Chris tians, ordered them to observe the first day as a Jewish Sabbath. We made these assertions on the best of all authorities—the Bible, but " this man," to use his own courteous phrase, denies the Bible. He will not believe in Moses and the Prophets. At the conclusion of the fourth commandment, we said Moses added these remarkable words : "And remember that thou vast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand, and by an stretched out arm; therefore the Lord thy God commanded thee to keep the Sabbath day." This Christian minister, in reply to the quotation, says—"the man was stating what was not true, and be hoped to conceal it. Every one knows that when the commandmepts were promulgated, nothing was added to the fourth," thus in direct terms calling Moses a liar. In the 15th verse of the fifth ettatiter of Deuteronomy, the precise words are found, add hi the Vd trom. o imme diately following the enumeration, Moses adds, " These words the Lord spake unto all your assembly in the Mount, out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick dark ness, with a great voice ; and he added no more." This is the way " to unmask an Editor." But it is of a piece with the whole article. The writer sets Scripture and truth at defiance whenever it suits his purpose. Refer ring to certain verses in the 24t4 chapter of the same book he says, " the same motive is em ployed to enforce other commandments," while not one of the ten is mentioned or referred to in the whole chapter, the subject of discussion being simply the sinfulness, of " taking the widow's raiment to pledge." The New Testament he mis- interprets in the same unbelieving spirit. We as serted that our Saviour made no allusion to the fourth, when he enumerated at different times the commandments, and we defied the Agnew ites to refute us. The writer accepts the chal lenge, and " stakes all on the issue." How does he carry out the challenge ? Not by giving us the authority of Scripture, but by a quibbling kind of special pleading, proving incontestably that he could not refute us. We refer the reader to that part of the argument, and leave him to judge for himself, simply giving one spe cimen. In the general command " Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself," he says there is no allusion to the eighth, thereby inferring that a man may love his neighbour as himself while he picks his pocket. And how does he reply to the assertion that the Apostles have left us no divine authority for " observing the first day of the week 'as a Jewish Sabbath ?" With the simple asser tion, " Few will venture to deny the change was made by the Apostles." Now, we have ventured to deny it, Tor various reasons, adduced in the previous article. Not one of them, except St. Paul, has even mentioned the day, and that Apostle, as the writer knows well, preached more frequently on the Jewish Sab bath than on the first day of the week. Will he refute this, or will he deny that the most signal event, save one, recorded in the New Testament, when all the Apostles were assembled in one place, and preached the Gospel to the Parthians, Medes. and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, took place " when the Day of Pentecost (a Jewish festival) was fully come ?" Having thus shown how► little " the man" knows about the Scriptures, we will, in conclusion, briefly advert to his ignorance of facts which are constantly taking place in his own country. "No member of the Church," he asserts, " says or thinks that the ordinances of the Church should be enforced by pains and penalties." What ! have the General Assembly inflicted no pains and penalties in carrying into effect their ordi nance called the " Veto ?" Is it no penalty to deprive seven ministers of their livings, and leave them and their children to starve, which these religious inquisitors would have accomplished but for the strong arm of the law ? Is it no pe nalty to deprive a respectable man of Church pri vileges because he buries his child on a Sunday? Is it no penalty to send a man to gaol for sel ling sweetmeats to children on Sunday, which he knows was done in Edinburgh at the "ear nest request" of a Minister of the Gospel? Why does he assert that the people and not the Church cry out for this strict observance of the Sabbath ? Is he aware that all the members of the Town Council (ex cept one) expressed the strongest disapprobation of the measure—that a numerous meeting was held in the same city last year to denounce the ministers of the West Church for inflicting pains and penalties to enforce their ordi nances, and that the Presbytery of Arbroath were hooted by many parishioners for abetting the tyrannical conduct of the Minister of Barry ? But we have done with " the man," who, though a teacher in Israel, knoweth not these things, and earnestly entreat the people of Scotland not to be guided by such blind leaders. They de serve every praise for the decorous and orderly manner in which they spontaneously observe the Sabbath. Let them still continue to observe it in their own way, and not yield to the selfish designs of men who are moving heaven and earth to bring them under the most galling bon dage that ever afflicted any nation. The following is the article referred to : OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH, IN REPLY TO ♦N ARTICLE FROM " T/1E SUN" OF WEDNESDAY, NOV. 24, 1841. Fellow Citizens,—You have probably seen an article advocating the running of Sabbath trains on the Edin• burgh and Glasgow Railway, which has been reprinted from a London newspaper, and extensively circulated in Glasgow. On this subject, I know, you will judge for yourselves. My opinion will not make you keep the Sabbath, and the sneer of an, Editor will not make you break it. You must have a reason of your own. As one of yourselves and living among you, I beg to say a few words in reply to this stranger, who has so confidently prescribed his own rule of duty to you. This adviser begins in a very suspicious tone. He calls Scotland a " priest-ridden country." It is clear that the libeller has never been in the North. He does not know us. Although priests were willing to ride, the Scottish people will not be ridden. The steed has cast many a would-be rider before ; and an English Editor need not try to bestride him now. The epithet, as ap plied to our country, is alike false and insulting. After introducing himself in this way, the writer cunningly labours to represent the opposition to Sabbath travelling as the work of Church courts. You know this is not true. You know, though this volunteer adviser is blind to it, the standing and character and numbers of the friends of the Sabbath in this country. Divided as we unhappily are on other subjects, we are cordially at one on this. Rich and poor, lay and clerical, churchmen and dissenters, all who fear God in the land are united. The document avers that the doctrine regarding the Sabbath now pressed by the Church h as b een " adopted those few years." Nobody in Scotland would have written such nonsense ; and I wonder how, after it was written in the smoke of London, any Scotsman was foolish enough to reprint it. Every one in this country knows that the views of our fathers were more strict than our own. " The Sabbath is to be sanctified by a holy resting all that day." Does the Editor of The Sun know from what book that sentence is taken ? And does he think it has been composed "within these few years ?" It is further said, that the Church mem bers hold it to be " the duty of the Legislature and the Executive to carry their ordinances into effect by pains and penalties." Whose ordinances ? Those of the Legis lature, or those of the Church? All depends on this. Of course, every sensible man holds it to be the duty of the Legislature and Executive to carry their own ordi nances into effect. The law of the land must be enforced. But no member of the Church of Scotland says o be enforcedr thinks, b y t p a t the a ins an d ordinances penal o tie s tf . h a w.. Ch urch w ould were e sh freed from that at the Reformation, and we repudiate it as heartily as The Sun. Next, we aro treated to a corn= nt on Scripture, for binding n e n g b enefiton theof the Jews e w p s priest-riddenoor only—instituted commemorate r c a a t n e n a o n t think for themselves. The S a bb a th, it i s sa id , was event which had reference to them only, namely, their deliverance from Egyptian bondage. Of course we, in this country, have been in the habit of taking the reason of the law as it is embodied in the law itself—" Remem ber the Sabbath:day, to keep it holy, for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it." But in this document we find it averred, that it was instituted on another ground, and Scripture is quoted in proof of the averment. It is said, " When Moses descended from Mount Horeb, he called all Israel and said, Hear, 0 Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day. The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.' He then promulgated the Ten Com mandments, and at the conclusion of the fourth, added these remarkable words—' And remember that thou west a stranger in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God brought thee out thence, through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm; therefore the Lord thy God commanded thee to keep the Sabbath dory'." It is evident the writer had the Bible before him, for the words are exactly quoted ; and why did he not refer to the chapter and verse? The man was stating what was not true, and hoped to conceal it. Every one knows that when the law was " promulgated,''* nothing was added to the fourth, nor to any of the commandments. We are therefore not a , little surprised to learn that when Moses came down from Mount Horeb he promulgated the Ten Command ments, and added a remarkable declaration to the fourth. Let the reader turn to the fifth chapter of Deuteronomy, and he will be abl e t o unmas k th e Edi tor f or himself. You will there find Moses, about forty years after the law was given, assembling the people—repeating to them the precepts of the law, and accompanying them with his own comments. Their deliverance from Egypt is urged on Israel, as a special reason why they should keep the Sabbath. The same motive is employed to enforce other commandments. Thus, Deuteronomy xxiv, 17, 18. " Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the fatherless, eor take a widow's raiment to pledge : But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bond-man in Egypt, and the Lord thy God redeemed thee thence : therefore I command thee to do this thing." Justice to the stranger and the fatherless is enjoined on Israel by the very same argument .which is employed to enforce the ob servance of the -Sabbath ; and is justice a Jewish insti tgliOn, and - not binding on us? The deliverance from • St4q, II bondage was not s argu ment ofn e Gs a the ground on which the Sabbath was instituted, but it was employed as a motiv e , w hi c h laid the Hebrews under p e c u li ar o bli ga ti ons t o o b e y one and e ex igh allth e of fth t the a Th know d s t r h e a g t a rd He e d w o a n s ly m t a n d e e t u r under i o t n h s e t l h a a w t : n e n t h a hp t a i d t m bec ame m . l i Christ. It is not necessary d yt r o a g n o m o f v r e o r m a l the t he e e x a a s I ti e s p . l e w o e f e s s p ; h a t h ri a s t e e H s m e o k r e e e t nin th p e le l t a e w l y Him o fulfi l t In nth i ng t e hadou s h e gle up w i th i obscured the law of God than in th e matter of the Sabalio r bath. The side on which they erred was a superstitious adherence to externals of their own invention, while they were destitute of the devotional spirit. Against this abuse the example of our Lord was constantly directed. Not one of his actions even seems to countenance the prosecution of common business or amusements on that day. When be found it necessary so very often to check the abuse of Sabbath observance, and yet never annulled the Sabbath law, it is evidence amounting to demonstration that he left it in force. After the example, the teaching of Jesus is adduced for the same purpose. l'he Commandments as given by our Lord on different occasions are summed up--the Sabbath is not named among them ; and therefore , it is concluded, the Sabbath law is annulled under the New Testament dispensation. The writer deems this a very strong point ; and waxing heroic as he con templates the power of his own argument, exclaims— "We defy the Agnewites to refute us." I accept the challenge, and with you, my countrymen, for judges, I am willing to stake all on the issue. The writer introduces two cases. The first is as follows : " To a lawyer tempting him he said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and all thy soul, and all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.' Not a single word about the Sabbath." To this I answer—Neither is there a single word here about worshipping images or stealing. It is obvious that none of the commandments are speci fied here. It does as much to annul the second and eighth as the fourth. But this is mere trifling. Every child here knows that the thing given is the sum of the law—love to God comprehending the first four, and love to man the last six commandments of the deca logue. The next case is quoted from Matthew xix -16-21. It is an enumeration of the duties compre hended under the second table of the law. In this case there is another flourish. " Here the commandmellts which Christ said were binding are all enumerated, but not the slightest allusion is made to the fourth." I answer—Neither is there the slightest allusion made to the first, second, or third. If this passage repeals the fourth, it repeals also the first three. The arg ument is —The Fourth Commandment is not mentione d' in this enumeration, and therefore it is not binding under the Christian dispensation. If the argument is good, go on with it ; thus—The Second Commandment is not men tioned in this enumeration, therefore it is not binding under the Christian dispensation : that is, it is r;et sin ful now to worship the work of our own hands. To any reader of his Bible the whole matter is very simple: The enumeration is intended to include only our duty to men. Duty to God is not spoken of at that place at all. This is our refutation of the miserable sophistry that has been palmed upon the public with such an air of confidence. We defy Tie Sun to refute us. The next subject is the change of the day ; and the practice of the apostles is adduced, to show that if any Sabbath is to be kept, it should be the Jewish Sabbath. Now, passing over the expressions in the Epistles, which, like those of our Lord, aimed at prevailing abuses of Sab bath observance, have been represented as forbidding it altogether ; and passing also the abundant evidence that the Apostles and their successors—all who have borne the Christian name in every age and nation—set apart the first day of the week for their assemblies and solemn communions, Ilbeg to observe that the opponents of the Sabbath always magnify the change far above its own importance. Few will venture to deny that the change was made by the Apostles ; and they had good rea sons for making it. But it is in its own nature a much less important thing than it is generally accoanted. Our Sabbath is the seventh day. The essence of the thing is the consecration of the seventh day as it comes round. The time when you begin to count is a circum stance of comparatively small import. The absolute portion of time on which the consecration is made can not be of the essence of the Sabbath. If it were so, it could not possibly be observed. Suppose we are right —that we keep it at the exact point of time in which it should be kept—then of necessity the inhabitants of New Zealand are wrong, seeing their day occurs at another point of time. The Sabbath was made for man ; but if the portion of time had been fixed absolutely on which the Sabbath must be kept, it would have applied only to some men, seeing it is day in one country while it is night in another. Most clear it is that the essence of it lies in the seventh day proportionally. This is fixed and universal ; but the point in time as which the consecration is made has varied, for special reasons, in the Jewish and Christian dispensations, and in the nature of things must be different on different portions of the earth's surface. The last argument is about the infliction of punish. ment. The substance of it is—lf you take the law from Moses, you must punish the Sabbath-breaker with death ; and Christ's example was always merciful. There is a very short answer to this. It is the moral law given to Moses in the Ten Commandments that we hold to be binding on Christians. There are no paint and penalties in it. The moral law was applied to Israel in the institutes of Moses, and certain specified penalties attached to each offence. The same moral law is applied to us in Acts of Parliament, with certain "pacific penal ties attached to each offence. But we are no: bound to adopt the penalties prescribed by Moses, and I ,•e have not done it. We say penalties should be inflictet:. on transgressors, not because they are in the laws c. ..f Moses, but because they are in Acts of Parliament. We do not punish the Sabbath-breaker with death, because our own law doss not demand it. Neither do we put to death an adulterer, for the same reason. The law is given to men without any other penalty than the displeasure of God. The rulers of every nation are bound to apply it according to the time and circumstances in which they live. How often must it be told that we take from the Bible the moral law with out any penalty, and the Legislature of every country takes its own way of enforcing it ? I have only to notice now the conclusion, which con tains the most unjust insinuation of all. The Sun, for sooth, would make it " a day of joy and gladness, not of gloom and sorrow." Verily, this is the wolf in sheep's clothing. We wish a sabbath-law for protection to the. poor as well as the rich. No Christian desires to make it a day of gloom. Let men be invited to enter tho House of God with the voice of joy and thanks giving. Let them be taught to count the Sabbath a de light ; and with that view let them be allowed to rest from their toil. Most men see clearly that if the Railway trains are allowed to ply on the Sabbath many other in roads upon its rest will necessarily and immedi ately follow. First one class of labourers and mechanics and then another would be called to their com mon employment on 01l the days of the week. There could be no additional remuneration ; for already there are too many hands. You lose the rest which is needful alike for body and soul, and get nothing in return. I ad dress myself to all who are employed during the week in the service of others. Would you like to see the Sabbath destroyed ? We seek to shield you from the tplinny of avarice. This miserable lust of wealth would impiously rob God of his due, and cruelly wrest from his creatures their best birthright. Godliness is profitable unto all 1 1 things. We would keep his Sabbaths, because it is the law of God ; but we know that in keeping them there is great present reward to men. Knowing that the Sabbath is " a delight," and fearing lest that " day of joy and gladness " may soon be made one of gloom to you, I am, with affection and respect, A FELLOW CITIZEN.
