The proper observance OF the Sabbath day ha,
become matter of controversy in England. A
Sunday League has been formed in London, op.
posed to the present restrictions and to the ded.
cation Of the seventh day to the National observ-
ance of religious duties. and in favor OF keeping
open all public buildings This league finds an
opponent in every respect worthy of its STEEL in
the Lords bay Rest Association. The Leapu ue has
Just been defeated regard TO the opening on Sun
day OF the British Museum. The opposition, TO
such an opening when petioned for by the Sunday
Leagued. was made on the distinct ground that
"thp Sabbath is a day for religious observance :"
Mr.. Foster. however, the vice president Of the
Pnvy Council. who has control IF this subject,
chose to place his refusal entirely on the social
consideration that it was better for the working
classes that the museum should be closed Once
open public buildings Of this kind secularise the
Sabbath. and it will inevitably soon cease to be
day of rest. Concede the right of the peopl. to
have the museum opened on that day, and by
what process OF reasoning can the shops. the thea
tres, the picture galleries bs compelled to keep
their doors barred at the same time. II the small
end of the wedge enters. the breach will not be
long in becoming wide one, and the working
man be deprived OF his only day Of rest So ar,
gued Mr. Foster. and therefore denied the petition
of the Sunday League.
