The law, if it should become a law, could
be easily oyaded for the officials, while
not requiring the wearing of livery, could
refuse TO employ without its use. We Go
not believe, however, that Congress, or a
state legislature, have the power to provide
by law what IN individual shall or shall not
wear as an article of clothing. We believe in
the good old scriptural doctrine. rightfully

If we attend first to the kingdom of God
and His righteousness, all of these things

that q nation thoroughly imbued with
christianity and morality will regulate all

1t the folly of dressing employees in livery,
IN republican America. can be surpassed in
any way, It can only be by the endeavor to
cgisalc in reference thereto. If Congress
has the right to say that an employer shall
moi require Of a person. rs condition pre-
cedent to employment. that he shall wear a
''siove-ppe hat. then it has the right to
dictate the color, material and fashion of

ty and folly is surpassed in the attempt to

believe such laws can be enacted, or If en-
acted enforced. because, in our judgment.
they are beyond the scope of legislation

These sentences of his which at the time
seemed almost pedantic, how they would
be looked upon some day as exhaustng the
subject! 1t was his nature to be lavish TO
be superb and vast in the spread of his H.
lustration. His speeches would be read
hereafter as were those of Edmund Burke.
Sumner astonished scholars. His scholar
ship was even more discriminating, more
unvaiying, more to the point than that of
Parker. The name of Theodore Parker
came naturally to ones lips on the Music
Hall platform. Parker wrote to Sumner at
the time of his first election you once
told me you were not in politics, but in
morals. Now | hope you will show NOR
ais in politics. l hope you will build on
the rock OF ages and look to eternity for
justification" Charles Sumner so buided.
Not merely the love of virtue, not merely
the love of truth, but the absolute strength
and tenacity of purpose against an unwil-
ling Congress and an unwilling nation
were his. Charles Sumner never connived
at an indirect procedure at dishonor-
able transaction, to save the great
est measure, even. Could any one
imagine Charles Sumner going around but
ton-holing people to vote for him could
any one imagine Charles Sumner on the
platform Of political convention marshal
ling people to vote for himself? His faults
were faults of his strength The simplicity
of his nature entered into his way of speak
ing of himself There was little defect
on the side of emotion which made his tfi-
umphs those Of moral appeal rather than of
personal magnetism. BIT the charge that
he cared for principle only and took no in
terest in individuals, how often had the
speaker heard it Indignantly denied in
Washington by those whom he had benefit
ted But what would all the eulogy that
could be spoken amount to compared with
the silent culogy pronounced by one Of
those young men or women who would fol-
low his example? The thing to be done
was for the next man to grasp the stand
ard, and the next and the next until regi-
ment have fallen. That was the way to
honor Charles Sumner. TO grapple ear
nestly with the new questions that were
arising on every hand. In this battle with
corruption. the nation was looking anx-
iously to Massachusetts.

An Iowa Liquor case.

Justice Miller, of the United States Sill
picmc court, has just delivered an import
ant decision of that court, relative to the
application Of the fourteenth amendment
TO property in liquors. The case was that
of Bartemeyer VS.. state of Iowa. The
plaintiff claimed to be owner of the liquor
priol to a day on which a law for the sup
preston of intemperance, under which he
was Indicted was passed. He maintained
that the law of the legislature of Iowa, on
which the prosecution was based, violated
the constitution Of the United States. The
case being moot one, the question was not
fully decided The court, however, hold ::
First--That the usual and ordinary legis-
lation of the states regulating or prohibit
ing the sale of intoxicating liquors raises
no question under the constitution of the
United States prior to the fourteenth
amendment of that instrument.
Second-I'hc right to sell Intoxicating
liquors is not one OF the privileges and i'm
muniiics of citizens of the United States
which by that amendment the states were
forbidden TO abridge.
Third-l}ut if a case were presented in
which person owning liquor or other
property at the time a law was passed by
the state absolutely prohibiting any sale of
ii. 1t would be q grave question whether
such n law would not be inconsistent with
the provision Of that amendment which
forbids the state 10 deprive amy person OF

Fourth While the case before us at
tempts to present that question il fails to
do it.
Fiith-In snch acasc. where the supreme
court OF the state to which the writ Of
error is directed has not considered the
question. this court does not feel at liberty
