Gazette this afternoon in res
ponse TO request for
its opinion as to the nature of the
changes required in the present Eng
fish criminal law makes several i'm
portant suggestions. 1t advocates;
An addition to the criminal act
raising the age at which female chill.
dren may legally consent to sinful
conduct from thirteen years the pres
ent period, to sixteen years.
2. The extension OF the law prohib.
iting soliciting to both sexes.
3. Denial of any additional power
over women 10 the police that will be
aimed at the suppression of crime
and not at the suppression of vice;
that is complete legal liberty for vol
untary immortality between adults
contracting on equal terms, but Wig
orous repression of criminality IN all
cases in which the parties are under
age or where the elements of full,
free and intelligent consent are alb
sent.
4. Greatly increased stringency of
the laws against procuration.
The Gazette in an editorial COM
menting upon the results of
of ITS revelations, declares that
its "trumpct blast has
reused the world.n "No word
was raised yesterday in the churches
against us" continues the paper, shut
all tho forces of wickedncss in high
places are arrayed against us. The
Hon. w. II. Smith " Sons, possessing
the monopoly of the news-stands on
the railway system of England, have
suppressed the sales of the Pail Mall
Gazette; the Prince of Wales has stop
ped his paper; The Right Hon. Mr..
Bcntick is posing in parliament in the
name of outraged morality and
clamors for our extinction. The Ga
zcttc did not undcstakc this inquiry
TO unearth the vices of the great, but
If we are driven to bay, we will be-
come compelled by the action OF our
assailants TO speak out and spare
none.
SURGEONS wHACK AT VICE.
London, July l3.-Rey. Mr. Spur
geon yesterday preached powerful
sermon on the patrician iniquity of
London as exposed by the Pail Mall
Gazette during the past week. Mr.
Sturgeon took for his text the Hth
verse second chapter of the Epistle of
Paul TO the Romans, which he
quoted in defense of the Pail Mall
Gazctte's work in making its revela-
tons. Paul, so the preacher said, felt
il necessary to mention the hideous
vices of the heathens and left ON re-
cord mn exposure OF the sins of his
day which crimsoncd the check of the
modest when they read IL, but II had
| to be written TO shame the abomina-
/ tiOns of the age almost past shame.
There was Judgment for sin, in this
world, for both men and ma
tons. Assyria, Babylon, Persia,
Rome and Egypt wero
empires of oppression and cruelty and
full of iniquity. When the sin OF
these people could no longer be toll
Grated, then they were wiped oil tho
face of the earth; thus OF all nations
but no one could tell what blood-shed
ding and suffering come upon mel
for their lniquitles."
why should London" exclaimed
the preacher, abe more favored than
Rome? What is there about GU
boastiul race OH this or the other sid
r of the Atlantic that we should mo
