OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH Al
meeting was holden at the Presbyterian
Church on Sunday evening last, for|
the better observance of the Sabbath inl
our midst" which was largely attended
We have received q report of proceed
ines, and an address, which, though
rather long, we shall try to make room
for in our next. The following was the
first ofa series Of resolutions adopted:
Resolved, That we respectfully request
the merchants and other business me
of Nevada to close their doors on the
Sabbath, and that we pledge ourselves
to support those only who do so other
things being equal.
The object proposed in the above we
heartily sanction. The "land without
a Sabbath is indeed moral desolatior.
and We sincerely trus, the efforts being
made to secure the observance of the
Sabbath will be universally successful
But much can be said in defence OF
merchants who open their stores on the
Sabbath, and of miners who make their
purchases on that day. The day in
California is SUI gcnsrrs. The rules for
its observance to which we are accus-
toned in the states, can be adopted but
slewly, and one at time. Nest miners
cannot leave their work on weekdays.
when water and tailirgs are in mo ion
without immense risk, and their great
tribute to the Sabbath in suspcndinc
all work OH that day, when by common
consent the water is closed off, and the
risk removed, should be set 10 their
credit rs bright trait of morality. So
merchants, TO accommodate impcrious
necessities, keep open their stores on the
only day miners can attend to purchases.
We do not believe our merchants are ac
tuated by mercenary considerations in
this, but by wish to give miners an
opportunity to furnish themselves with
supplies at tho only season a which they
srs able. When circums stances shall SO
change A. to allow miners to purchase
during the week, We doubt not mer-
chants will gladly embrace "day of
rest" But while things are as they are.
We think it would be better to simply
respectfully request" rather than to-
ostracise those who keep open by with
dsH~al Of patronage.
We trust the rough materials of So
eisty will ere long settle into such O
state that this and many other reforms
may prevail in the community.
An adjourned meeting for the pur-
pose above stated will be held to-mor-
row evening.
