A most singular pamphlet. says late London pa
per, is lust published, under the title OF Letter
addressed to the King, by Thonas Thrush, on re-
signing his Commission Captain in the Royal
Navy, on the ground of the unlawfulness OF War"
We need hardly observe to those who have reflected
at all on the subject, that Captain Thrush OF course
makes out most triumphant case in justification
Of his conduct He goes into no controversial mat
ter, but simply takes certain prophecies from the
Old Testament. and the most admired precepts OF
Jesus Christ from the New, and then asks, how
these truly noble and characteristic precepts OF
Christianity would look at the head OF every naval
or military commission, or warlike order from the
Admiralty or Hor.e Guards He treats with great
contempt the sophiscal distinctions between often
sve and defensive war; and shows that the most
beautiful sayings OF the Founder OF the Christian
faith expressly forbid violence in resistance-the
whole spirit of his teaching being +" Overcome Ecit
By Go0d." MIR. Thrush declares that he began to
doubt the lawfulness Of war more than three years
ago; but that in order not to take an important step
ashy, he devoted these three years, which he has
passed in retirement reading and reflection on the
subject assisted by earnest prayer to the Supreme
Beug. The result is thus stated :-' Determined
as Christian never to draw a sword, or pull trig
GER for the purpose of shedding human blood nor
vet to return blow, or an insult for an insult; I
feel myself perfectly unfit for Your Majesty's Naval
Service, ard think ! should act neither honestly
nor consistently in retaining my commisson.'

said Rowan, my life is in your hands-bu you are
