severe rebuke to the plaintiff for his exhi-

opinion that plaintiff should have rather
gone down on his knees and thanked the
Governor for his clemency than have taken
the course he had.

ut home, he was utterly careless of self He
worked day and night, preached three or fonr

required it.
such man is loss not only to- his bereayed

it from the calamnities it's sins invoke for
God will not do less for the sake of His servants
now than in the days of Abraham. May God,
who is rich in mercy, receive his chastened
spirit and may He raise up many such in his

der themselves holy in His sight, and draw
innumerable souls to Him who utterly des-
pise this perishable world, and belong to Jesus

Compulsory Education.

From the last number of the Freeman's
Journal we learn that throughout the State
of New York, to commence on the first of
January next, new system of education
goes into operation. 1t appears that thence
forth any child between the ages of eight and
fourteen years, caught away from school
during school hours, will be arrested as a
vagrant. OF course, if the child has the
passport of the police authorities, he will
be safe.
This is taking rapid stride towards the
overthrow of personal liberty. 1t used to
be thought dreadful that in the SO called
despotic countries of Europe people could
not go about freely without passports. The
suggestion of such Instructions in this coun-
try would have been treated with scorn.
Now we are coming to such state OF
things that a poor woman cannot send her
little girl to the neighboriDg grocery,
unless she be provided with permit, with
out having her arrested and taken to some
House of Refuge as a vagrant. That is, the
law in its justice pronounces those to be
Migrants who are not Migrants. just as
we'll arrest the children under the charge OF
theft or murder as of vagrancy. There is
as little connection between the charge and
the act in either case.
Such law will entail excessive incon
venience. Parents will be deprived of the
free management of their children. They
will not be able to keep them at home,
without the permission of 1.-THE authorities"
There may be hundreds of cases in which
such course would be desirable but where
those who must give the permission will
not think so. The child may be ailing but
not % perceptibly as to satisfy the educa-
tionak real OF the police authorities Che
