RELIGION DICTATED By Law.


FIN this country, where the selection OF a
religious belief is matter of choice, it will
read curiously to be informed that In Eng
land, perhaps the most enlightened of mod
ern notions, it is, uader certain circumstances,
regulated by Law. We all know that the
crowned head Of England makes oath to
sustain and uphold the established church,
but thas is a mere mater of form, descended
from more intoleraM and bigoted age than
the present, and the oath is today more
honered in the breach than tho observance.
But recenS decision of the court of queens
bench has revealed the fact that the citizen
has no right to the choice of his own re-
llgszon under certain contingencies, but must
adopt and adhere to that prescribed by law.
a recent case in point may be briefly told.
It has been the custom when Catholic gen.
tleman and Protestant lady intermarried,
to educate the male children in the Catholic
faith, and the female children in the Pro-
testant faith Some years ago the Duke of
Norfolk, a Catholic, married a Protestant
lady, named Ellis. Now that children have
been born to them and reared to manhood
and womanhood, the matter Of their religion
has been brought before the courts. The
lady AYERS that at their marriage her hus-
band promised that their children should be
Protestant, and she accordingly brought
them up in that faith. But the court says it
doesn't signify bit in law what he promised.
He as father has now the right to decide
what they shall be. The matter has evoked
intense interest and feeling among the old
English Catholic families, and is not mike
Iy to prevent marriages between those of
different faith in the future. Rome has all
along been jealous of them, but the number
of Roman Catholic families of the higher
class in England has led to their breeding in
and in to such degree that, from sanitary
point of view, an infusion of fresh blood has
been highly desirable.
The absurdity of such law is manifest.
There can be no objection, provided the
parents are agreed, to the education of the
children in the Protestant or Catholic faith.
Either is good enough if lived up to. But
will not this decision produce something of
n disturbance in the political, as we'll as the
religious world? Will man or woman
be willing to change his or her religion at
the dictate of court which finds that their
parents made mistake in their education?
Surely they will not quietly submit to it.
Relgion-or at least it's for1ns-is merely
q matter of education. When belief in
the truth of doctrine becomes fixed in
ones mind, it cannot be eradicated by any
law OR decree of the court. 1t will only
give way to better light Tor matured reason.
The folly, therefore, of attempting to change
ones religion, will be apparent to the dull
est comprehension. We are fortunate in
this country in having no such law, and no
judge who would be absurd enough to en-
force it, provided we had it. In that respect
England is very far behind the times, and
the sooner she works reform the better it
will be for her credit.

The scriptures inform us that there is a
time to laugh. Perhaps the scripture is
right, and perhaps the calamity that befel a
lady in Rhode Island last week was penalty
for choosing the wrong time for cachination.
At any rate, the lady's husband brought
home quantity of pork and undertook to
pickle it for the winter, but instead of salt,
took sugar with which to make his brine.
His mistake conyulsed his wife with laugh
ter, and she laughed on until she became
hysterical and finally died. We are at loss
to ind the moral to this story. It is either
that people shouldn't use sugar to make
brine, or that people shouldn't laugh at 9TH
ers' mistakes. You pays your money and
takes your choice

RABBI WISE, of Cincinnati, has provoked a

dying out, and will ere long become extinct
The absurdity of the idea will be appreciated
by every person in the country, and we are
inclined to the belief that the statement was
made without thought. At any rate the
yesOash Messenger INDUCES in some pretty
severe comments on the subject, alleging
that the fact that Rabbi Wise allowed his
daughter to marry Christian is father to

A CHRISTMAS HYMN.


Hail! glorious day, hail! new born King,
By prophets long foretold,
Thy church the glad refrain will sing
Till time itself grows old.
On this suspicious day was born,
And in manger laid,
TIL incarnate God, Who on that morn.
His love for man displayed.
The wise men sought Him to adore,
And worshiped at His feet.
Let our glad hearts, as e'er before,
With joy His advent greet.
He died for us that we might live,
Our sins for US He bore,
To us, 0 Lord, Thy spirit give,
That we may sin no more.
Our faith in Him let us confess,
By it the world defy,
Twill make as strong when cares Cypress,
If we in Him rely.
Hail! glorious day, Hail! Prince of Peace,
Our Savior and our King,
Our joyful hearts can never cease
Thy wondrous love to sing. BETA.
