tho question. Would II BIO right for us to
impose on the million readers OF The Sun
a column OF such stuff. Furnishing so many
In order that a single individual might be
brought to punishment
| The question OF duty. accordingly. has
been perplcxing; but after full considera-
| ton Of tho subject in all Its phases and re-
| lations. IL seems to us that 1t Is better to
listen TO the dictates OF humanity and not
suffer this lawyer to make an exhibition
of himself in all his asininity. Perhaps his
heart may be touched by our indulgence and
our charity. and he will continue to buy The
Sun and not cast himself out into tho dark
ness. Its price is only two cents n copy
on week days. and IL Is for salo on all news
stands and on oil railroads and steamboats,:
or it may be obtained by subscription sent
to the publication Office. Nobody. therefore.

ourselves morally responsible II this law

lot him examine himself to SEQ whether he
himself lives up to it. Where did he get his
money? Has hc sued the brethren !?
Has he taken usury2 Has he turned his
cheek to his assailants? Is his thought
only on heaven and not on earth? Arc the
treasures which he has sought to accumu-
late tho treasures OF heaven and not the
wealth of earth which moth and rust cor
rupt? According to the law OF CHRIST, he
must first take tho beam out OF his own
eye before no ventures to find fault with
the moto in his brothers eye.
Perhaps DR.. RAISsToRD, in his sermon
Tomorrow will instruct him as to that
matter, when he makes confession OF his
own hypocrisy in assailing Mr.. GOULD. AS

tween the sin OF tho three. tho clergyman.

none of them can receive salvation except
through tho grace Of GOD. Not every

1.-Two men went up into tho temple to
pray: the one a Pharisec. the other publ

of. would not lift so much as his eyes unto
heaven. but smote upon his breast. saying:
COP, be mcrciful to me. Il sinner. l tell

justified rather than tho other. for every
ono that cxalteth himself shall be abascd.
and he that humblcth himself shall be
