COUNTY COURTS EXTENSION.
Lord BEAUMONT presented a petition from the
solicitors of York praying for an extension of the County
Courts Act.

IMPORTATION OF ARMS AND GUNPOWDER
INTO THE CAPE COLONY.

The Earl of MALMESBURY moved for the re-
turns of all arms and gunpowder imnorteci into the
colony of the Care of Good Hope. and for copies of ell
ordinances of the Governor of the colony on the sutiset
Since he h4d first mentioned this tubj, ct he had learned
that a considerable trade had been going on many years
in r.rtnA and gunnowd..r between the Cape colony and
,he Kafiri. To this trade ha thought might 1),4 fairyattributed the failure of. her Majeati,'s firms in the war
with the Kafirs. It appeared that the trade w.ss carried
n through Nat6l at d a port further north belonging
to the Portuguese. The Secret try of State for the Cl-
tonies hid first learntd this from the repart of C
Geeeral Miller, and the Noble Earl ipid icarre-
diatelv dispatched a c mmunteati II to the G-eler:-er
which did him grt at credit. The Noble Earl ':a; 1:1Y
the only nu`,lic man who was ignorant of Op 'net—he
vas only one out of a hundred who did not know, and
es 'he head f the deportment, he Wi3 rupee-
„ the grt.at b!ame roust rest On his subcrdicatt
ffic. ra for not acquainting him with the toe-
There was a law in the colony cerAini:,
against this trading, but it did not seem to have
ever been put in force. He would not trouble their
Lordships with quotations from the report which had
been laid on the table on the subject of the Kafir war ;
but it was quite evident that this trade had been going
on for many years, and that the Noble Earl had been
until very lately entirely ignorant of it ; he wished,
therefore, to know what means the Noble Earl proposed
to take to stop the trade. It was evident that the
steamer which the Noble Earl had mentioned as having
been sent to blockade the coast would not be sufficient
for that purpose ; and he would suggest that, since
the slave trade had been to a great degree repressed,
some of the 16 vessels of the slave trade squadron should
be sent down for the purpose.
Earl GREY said it was a notorious fact that a trade
in gunpowder had for many years been carried on with
the Kafirs. It was no fault of the law. which was suffi-
ciently severe; and when the subject had been submitted
to th, Ex- cativo Council in 1842. that Council had not
thought it either neces-arry or possible to add to their
stringency, but attributed the whole d.fficulty of stopping
the traffic to the nature of the country and the scattered
population on the frontier. All the powder which had
reached the Kafirs was smuggled through our own ports
after it was landed there, and not before; and it was ut-
terly impossible to find any coast where smuggling would
be so impossible.

monk of the order of St. Dominic, in 1820, and took the
vows. The Dominicans profess only a single vow,
thus :—" I, Achilli, promise obedience to God, to tho

There is nothiog else in the vow. I mean to state on my
oath I believe a aiminican monk does not take the
vow of poverty and ceiihecy. I swear en my oath I did
not take these vows. If it is not their interest to take
those vows, Dominican monks do net take them. They
were not a necessary condition to be admitted into
the Order of St. Dominic. The vow of
obedience is only necessary. In the year 1824
I became a priest. Chastity is part of the obligation
of a priest. I swear that during the time I was at Vi-

THE SUN,

centuries ago was maintained by the wearers of the
ephod among the descendants of the Chaldean Aline-
HAM. Thus it is that we regard with feelings of un-
affected admiration the grandeur and benevolence of
the institution, which we should be loath to see either
derided by infidelity or profaned by fanaticism. Hap-
pily there is little danger incurred at any
moment in
reference to the former casualty. But unhappily there
is only too frequent cause to regret the recurrence of
the latter—namely, the attempted profanation of the
glorious institution of the periodical day of rest by
those fanatics who would fain render Religion a curse
instead of a blessing—a positive nuisance instead of
a .benign consolation. The Sabbatarians are perpe-
tually crying out against the notion of profaning the
Sunday—while they themselves are the very people
who are doing their uttermost to secure the certainty
of its profanation. They endeavour to put a stop to
railway travelling. They try to close every place of
innocent recreation. They would restrict the move-
ments of the hard-working classes to the squalid
localities surrounding their city homes—herding
them into the close atmosphere of the conventicle (in
the majority of instances a room built over a charnel-
house)—confining their occupations on the Sunday to
the the reading of sermons, and
singing of psalms,
the general suppression of anything at all approach-
ing to merriment. It was not in this spirit that the
Sabbath was originally instituted. It was not thus
that Dejection was chosen to be another name for the
genius of Christianity. Religion, we persist, can
only be polluted by its degradation to these sordid and
narrow regulations. The worship of the Divinity is
not dependent upon the rolling of a wheel, or the
snorting of a steam-engine. Better, surely, to enable the
artizan and his family to adore GOD after the dictates
of their own hearts, and then to breathe the fresh air
and rove among the green fields, than, by shutting
them up in the work-a-day streets where, their life
wears away in a ceaseless round of drudgery, to
drive them to the skittle-ground and the beer-shop in
very disgust at the mercilessness of these cruel and
fanatical regulations ! It is precisely because the
Sabbatarians do not regard the matter in this light—

because they want to debar the toiling multitude
from the enjoyment of the most sinless recreations—
that we consider them to be the real desecrators of
religion, and the very men who are striving to insure
the profanation of one among the most benign and
beautiful of its institutions.
