10 the Editors Of the Dispatch: Za#I 7
Dear Sirs,-We are to take 1t that the earth
is now the arena on which men are, contest.
ing and trying the great issue, OF truth and
terror-what is truth, and what is error
Virture. and .vice~-wbichi shall Il prevail
Soul or sense, spirit or flesh-which shall
predominates Christian civilization or In
shall stand? The Great Gre
ator or the deyil-which shall be king?
Fair play and no farors are the terms ot
the engagement. The world and all It's
powers and resources are his who can use
them. The consequences are Infinite; the
results eternal.
Virtue, spirit, Christian truth and cha
racter. and the Almighty as Lord OF all,
must be uncompromising. They can allow
no neutrality. They impose and require. on
the basis Of their first claim, absolute JUS
tice, which is absolute submission.
Christian civilization claims to be the re-
lision OF the Creator and God of Nature !;
and all the laws and precepts of the gospel
coming from One having authority are as
much natural laws, as absolutely binding
and as surely to be vndlcated, as the law OF
gravity and all the laws Of physics that
science has developed and experience con-
tirmed. Ia .s'--1 ~ =
Therefore neither the decal09ue nor any
Christian obligation can need human stat
utes or ordinances either to establish it or
to insure it's ultimate general observance.
AS the rain comes down and waters the
earth, and causes it to bring forth and sus-
tain men, so the Creators laws as enun-
eiated will accomplish their purpose.
WE are under grand system Of laws
one and entire. Whosoever submits him
self and yields obedience shall be adjusted
and work smoothly in his place; but he
that ressts, opposes, and contends with it
shall be ground into powder. The law OF
gravity and the observance Of the Sabbath
are statutes under the same code.
! Good men may lament disloyalty for their
own sakes, for their contry's sake, for the
sake OF their kind. But the laws OF God
will be -vindicated; truth will prevail ;
and the patriot is he who can ensure to his
countrymen the highest enjoyment in the
observance OF laws, the greatest indemnity
in avoiding their iniraction. Yours, -

The Rev. Or. Prime, editor OF the New
York Observer, has been spending some
months on the continent OF Europe, and
making special inquiry intoithe drinking
habits OF the people. In tenmonths, during
which be visited the chief cities Of France,
Germany, and Italy, where the universal
#tipple is light wine or beer, he saw just one
person drunk. In one city OF $4,000 in-
habitants there was buta single arrest for
drunkenness during forty days. The rev
erend doctor reaches tho conclusion, which
IS not a.. discovery by any means, that
.drnnkenness is the exception in the vino
