On our first page will be found the opinion
of Judge Fox in an equity suit, setting aside a
mortgage, made by bankrupts within four
months of the proceedings against them IN
bankruptcy by their creditors. We think the
mercantile community is not aware of al, the
consequences which, under tb. bankrupt act
may attend such fraudalen mt preference. We
are informed that wien a party is put into
bankruptcy by his creditors, the assignee may

80 thin four months, contrary to the act,

70 prove ms debt in bankruptcy, and, what
is of more consequence to the hankrnnt he
cannot obtain bis discharge il he has given auy
fraudulent preference contrary to the prov;-
sions Of the law. The only prudent course g.,
party who finds himself embarrassed, is AZ

Fsfse ffesences.
To obtain the Smallest ooin BY false t,re.
tences is crime, punishable by imprisou-
ment 1t was publicly stated az the closing
meeting of the Young Mems Convention, ty
the President, that the pretences on which
the street cars were run in this city on the
Sabbath were false. II SO, is there not some
where double guilt?
No one ought to be compelled by law to OBJ
serve the Sabbath in any particular way. Let
every man do, or refrain from doing, whatever
his conscience dictates, so that he does not dis-
tar6 Others in doing the same. But we are
Christian people; and no one, whatever his
views may be, ought to allow himself to desc
crate the Christian Sabbath. Much less
should he do this in the name of religion, and
under the pretext of favoring Christianity. Is
not this done, in running one OF the island
steamers, and the street cars, on the Sabbath?
Is Chebeague so destitute of meeting houses
that the inhabitants need to come to Portland
to worship? Are the crowds that 90 from
Portland to the islands on the Sabbath seek
ing churches there, because there is no room
in our city churches? Is it not notorious that
for every one in the street cars ON the Sabbath
on the way to church, there are ten there
merely seeking recreation? 1t is not strange
that these pretences of running ears and
steamers for the accommodation of religious
worshippers has been the theme of profane
testing and ridieule among irreligous men.
Everybody knows It Is done to mako money
oy 1t; aud that nine-tenths of the religious
community are opposed to it.
Some of those who do it esteem all days
alike They are consistent. Such men may
seek business, or pleasure, on the Sabbath.
