THE REVISED CODE-Mr Editor: A writer i'm
the star last week treated US TO a plaintiys iere
,miade over the manifold iniquities of the New
Code. We are regaled with the old TRADE gains,
usury We are admonished, in warning words.
tocTush out imprisonment FOR debt We are ap-
psaled to. as Christians and as men not TO attach
equal credit to the testimony Of the believer and
tle lnhdel' In this last item, by the way HJus-
ttia' evidently cOnfounds Infidel with Atheist
We sincerely hope that our citizens will read and
Judge for themselves concerning the merits of tle
Code, rather than heatken to the ILL iudyed suO
gestiOns of - JusIitia " That the term usury Is
relative and not an absolute expression; that in
general, demanding interest on loans iS quite as
reasonable as taking hire for other commodities.
and that the rate of interest should in Justice to
the lender, fuctuate with the Inconvenience of
lending and the hazard which he incurs of uItI
plats loss, are propositions which thinking men
have long ceased TO dispute. Those of the States
tLat have of late taken any action on the subject
have wlsel abolished tho usuTy laws as obsolet ?
ana mex pedlent. aud we commend the discrimi-
nation OF the codiliers In doing likewise
As for scriptural authority on the question the
express provision Of the Mosaic law Dent xxiii
2UJ allowing the lsraelitr to demand interest of
the stIan2er, sufficiently proves that usury was
not deemed tHtr'HStodHy Evil. For here We must
observe that In the biblical sense of the word all
rates of interest even the lowest Were accounted
.-usuIy, that IL the Jewish law is to be our
standard OF right I'm this respect we have ali
along been grievons sinners in accepting six per
cent. With regard to the alleged revival of i'm
pTl-Onncnt for debt, we need hardly observe
that the penalty Is not for the deGt but for the
JrdHd and PsTyRIy incident TO its non payment
That such crimes deserve Imprisonment is no
new theory. We mig lat say more OF .. Justitia,,
ware we no; satisfied that all who have read his
articles have dscernrd in them more Of the cant
or prejudice than of sound reasoning So far
We have seen no valid objection urged 40 ain,t
the Code, aud until we do, we mean to give 1t
hearty SUPPORT. VI<nRv
