and confess ourselves prisoners, thought outwardly
free. Nothing is so easy, nothing so agreeable to
despotic, harsh, and unsympathising tempers, as
to lay these heavy burdens. It is only saying
"No !" with an implied anathema, and you may
flatter yourselves at once that you have done a
noble deed and testified to a perverse generation.
We cannot do this. We must have more sympathy
with people, especially the large mass that requires
a little comfort, and even indulgence. We are
bound to consider not jest what they ought not to
do on Sunday, but what they do, and what they
may do. We are bound also to institute some sort
of comparison. Is it better an artisan shou'd
spend the long hours of a summer Sabbath iu a
public-house, or simply basking in the sun, or
dozing in the shade, torpid and sullen, than with
his wife and children, and very many other men)
wives, and children, in a beautiful garden, breath-
ing sweet air, and gazing on a glorious landscape f
Cannot a little charitable contrivance enable him
to do this without robbing other men of all their
Sunday rest ? Thousands upon thousands spend
their Sunday evenings in " tea-gardens," where
they have scarcely standing room, where they
drink beer and spirits, breathe tobacco, and what-
ever other perfumes a great crowd brings with it.
For our part, we don't think the custom so utterly
vicious and the people so " accursed" as to inter-
pose a conscientious scruple against our so much
as trying to improve it. Of course, it takes only a
drop of ink and a stroke of the pen to pronounce
any poor creature who gets into a boat or an omni-
bus on the Sunday afternoon " a child of perdi-
tion," and have nothing more to do with him. This
is not the way to make anybody better. It has
made man y a bad man, and many a hypocrite ; but
