Remarks by he Eduor pro tmpOre.
A moments consideration will show that Or
Bailey has totally misconstrued the paragraph
quoted and it is due to me that should have the
privilege of saying so through the columns Of the
Era lie has COMPOUNDED two things essentially
different, viz: doing and suffering. The propo-
sition to which he objects is, that men are bound
TO oJev unjust laws--spbBHt would have been a
more appropriate word, and would have conveyed
my meaning more definitely But submission is
obedience, and, therefore, the word is not out of
place.
Laws rarely command the citizen to do n par
ticular thing they are almost invariably pro-
hBaory, so far as they affect the mass of the cit-
Gems, not commandatory. The command is d-
rected to the officers of the Law Men are not
commanded to hold Africans in slavery-they are
only prohibited from assisting the slave in escap-
ing from his owner DIR. Bailey submits to the
prohibition, although he holds it to be unjust.
He does so in the conviction that submission to
the injustice is less evil than would result from
the nfraction of the LAWN other words he feels
bound as good citizen, to obey the injunction Of
the law OF the obligation of laws commanding
unjust actions, entertain the same opinion with
Dr. Bailey | hold that no human authority has
a right to command me to do that which my con-
science condemns as wrong and | should feel
perfect right to disobey such regulation. But,
in point of fact | never have been called upon to
perform such an action. | have lived all my life
in the atmosphere Of slavery, and yet the law has
never required me to do anything inconsistent
with my sense of right-perhaps with a single ex-
ception allude TO the police regulations Of the
slave States which require all persons to serve on
the patrol and to punish slaves for conduct which

one is actually compelled TO serve lie has the
option of serving or paying tritiing fine; and
such is the case in all similar instances.
might fortify my position by the authority Of
the New Testament, the recognised standard Of
morality throughout .Christendom. We are COM
handed to I" resist not evil y and to "submt our
selves to the higher powers y and in obedience to
these injunctions the early Christians sab@d'ed to
a thousand unjust laws, while they freely suffered
martyrdom rather than crccu'c them. In word
they felt bound as good citizens to suffer injus-
tice but never to innict it in the name Of law.
