In an important case before the WAGE
court his honor charged the law from
PaschaPs Digest instead of the new
code, which went into effect on the
twenty-fouIth ult. 1t is claimed that
there is difference between the two
codes on the point involved, and that
the court should have employed the
new code. As the new code has not
been published, and will not be until
about the first of September, the court,
as a matter of course, does not know
what it contains, but as it is the law
all the same, and must necessarily SUI
persede all laws in conflict with it,
there seems probability that law mat
tiers are in an internal taugle and the
average citizen should carefully keep
out of the courts.

The Pre.enee OF God.

The reason that preaching is so COM
monty Intellectual is, that it calls on
men oftener to work for God than to
behold God working for them. If in
every Iebuke we utter of mems vices
we put forth claim NJ on their hearts
II for every assertion OF Gods demands
from them we could substitute a dis
play Of his kindness, to them; if, side
by aide with every warning Of death,
We could exhibit proofs and promises
Of immortahtys If, in fine, instead of
assuming the being of an awful Deity,
which men, though they can not and
dare nos deny, are always unwilling,
sometimes unable to conceive, we were
to show to them q near, visible, newt
able, but all benehcient Deity, whose
presence makes the earth itself hesv-
en-, think there would be fewer deaf
children sitting in the market-place.
At all events, whatever may be the
inability in his present life to mingle
the fun enjoyment of the divine works
with the full discharge of every prac-
teal duty, and confessedly in many
cases this must be, let as not attribute
the inconsistency to any indignity or
faculty Of the contemplation, but to
the ain and suffering Of the fallen state,
and the change Of order from the keep
ing Of the garden to the filling Of the
ground. We can not say how far it is
night or agreeable with Gods will,
Nhlle men are perishing round about
Ne, while grief and pain aud wrath snd
implety and death and all the powers
Of the ar are working wildly and ever
more. and the CRY Of blood going up
20 hcayen. thai any Of rs should take
our hand from the plow; but this We
know, there will come time when the
service OF God shall be the beholding
81 him; and though in these stormy
seas, where we are now driven up and
down, his spirit is dimly seen on the
fsce Of the waters. and We are left to
cast anchors out Of the stern aud wish
Tor the day, thar day viii come when.
with the Evangelists on the crystal and
stable se., ell the creatures Of God shall
be fun Of eyes within, and there shall
Be s'ao more CURSE but his servants
shall serve him. and shall see his face.
