John Adams and the Sabbath.

The elder John Adams, while Presi-
dent OF the United States, as he was
returning from the country to his fam
lily in Boston, was interrupted by a
New England snow storm, which etfec-
tually blocked up his way. He was
then at Andover, twenty miles from
Boston, where his family, as he had
learned were waiting his arrival.
Sabbath morning the roads became for
the first time passable. On the ques-
tion Of going to Boston that day, it
was the opinion of the Clergyman of
the place that the circum stances of his
detention, and the sickness of his fam
lily, would justify his travelling on the
Sabbath. His reply was, that the JUS
tifable occasion in this case would not
prevent the bad influence of his exam
pie on those who might see him tray
cling on the Sabbath, without know
ing the cause. He therefore decided
to wait till Monday Have we chiet
magistrates now who are as scrupu-
lousy careful to shun the appearance
of evil?
