selves a Christian nation if we
violate the fundamental law
of Christianity And if the san
City and indisoluhility OF
marriage does not constitute car
dinal principle of the Christian re-
ligion we are at a loss to know
what does.
''Let the imagination picture to
itself the fearful wrecks daily
caused by this rock of scandal and
the number of families that are
cast adrift on The ocean of life.
Great stress is justly laid by NOR
alists on the observances of the
Sunday. But what a mockery is
the external repose of the Christian
Sabbath to homes from which do
mestic peace has been banished bv
internecine war. where the mothers
heart is broken. the fathers spirit
crushed. and where the children
cannot cling to one of their parents
without exciting the hatred or jeal-
ousy of the other. And these mel
ancholy scenes are followed by the
final act in the family. when the
family ties are dissolved and the
hearts that had vowed eternal love
and union are separs.ted to meet no
more.
''This social plague calls for
radical cure. and the remedy can
be found only in the abolition OF
our mischievous legislation regard
ing divorce and the honest applica-
tion of the gospel. If persons con-
templatinR marriage were persuaded
that once united they were debar-
red from entering into second we'd
lock. they would be more circum-
spect before marriage in the choice
of partner, and would be more
patient afterward in bearing the
yoke and tolerating each others in
firmities.
