GEORGE, ' Oak liidgcs P. 0 'that law was the servant of grace, l . mercy. ’3 ' It is always better that evil be exposed. Sermon BY REV. ‘V. W. PERCIVAL, M. A. The following is a synopsis of a sermon preached in the Presbyterian church on Sabbath morning. Sept. 13th :--- “ Moreover the law entered that the ofience might abound, but where sin abounded, grace did much more abound." -â€"Rom. v., 20. The preacher first proceeded to show the relation of law to grace, pointing out the importance of haying, clear and dis- tinct VlBWB on this subject. He showed and that the supreme principle that actuator] God in all His dealings with men, even in the giving of the law, was grace. Hence the law is “ the schoolmaster to bring us to Christ.” His first topic was:â€"“.The natural- efl‘ect of law is to increase transgression.” “ The law entered that the ull‘eiiceinight abound.” (Foinost men in St. Paul‘s day it would seem that God’s purpose in the law was defeated by the sinfulness of man,but i’aui did not so-xegard it. it was evident to him that in the development of evil the law had rendered a definite service. Our observation teaches us the correctness of Paul’s conclusion, that the effect of law is to multiply transgression. It is a well known fact that the greater the number of laws, the greater is the number of offences against them; increase the severity of the penalty, and you in- crease tho roll of crime. of this may be difficult. but the fact re mains. It may be that the new law by suggesting its own violation thus tends to defeat. itself. Or it may be that the natural impulse of human nature is to rebel against restraint. If you doubt this, the preacher said, just issue a com- . mand to your wife, lay the law down to her that she is not to go out of the house for one week, and see if she will not sure to go out the next day. Perhaps if there had been no law in the case she would not think of going out for a week, i but the instant you command her not to go, that instant she wants to go. The natural impulse of human nature is to rebel against restraint. He then pro- ceeded to show that the tendency of law is to produce new forms of evil. That while law may check the manifestations of evil in one.;dii‘ection it will be sure to break out in another. He also pointed out that While many of the Old Testa- ment writers found in the law a theme for thanksgiving, wonder, and delight, yet it was not the law itself that enabled them to do this, but grace. They who sang the praises of the law had learned to know and love the God of grace. who gracious, slow to anger and .plenteous in The preacher’s second point was.â€" That thelawisapreparation for grace. the way for grace? letsâ€"By giving Dub- licity to the power of sin. This is a necessary step to every remedial process. be made public. This must be done beâ€" fore ynu can effect a cure. This is the special work that the Committee of En- quiry at Ottawa is now doing. It may not eflect the cureâ€" we do not for a mmnent think it willâ€"â€"but it is preparing the way for the cure, which we think Will follow. Its particular mission is to lay bare, to expose to the light of day, those cancers that are now. and have for years, been gnawing at the very vitals of this Dominion. The putrid sores on some of the political carcasses, both at Ottawa. and Quebec, must be exposed to view. the bandages must be torn off, that the public may see them in all their utter loathsomeness, the sight may be sicken- ing. the stench may be horrible, yet it must be done before we can hope for a cure. The preacher then proceeded to point out that if the committee did this. it would do all that it could be expected to doâ€"all in fact that law could do in the use. He then proceeded to give an illustration of the weakness of law to cure evil. Some years ago, he said, the attention of the English Parliament was directed to the state of the dwellings in- habited by the poorer classes. It was found that they were put up cheaply. with poor drainage, and they were the cause of frightful mortality. Accordingly an Act was passed making it imperative that all houses should be solidly built. The law thus dealt with the evil. But was itasuccessl Not by any means. The old evil was removed, but it soon appeared in a new form. To iensure profits to the proprietors the new houses were overcrowded, so that the poor who dwelt in them were huddled together like so many swine. The inevitable re- sult was the out-break of disease. Thus the difficulty still remained. Again Par- liament went to work. An Act was pass- ed which made it imperative that a cerâ€" tain amount of space be given to each person. But did the law accomplish its object this time ? No, for the conse- quenrw min the rents were raised to such an extrai. i’nit the poor could n1 t on; The explanation ‘ gave it as a God “ full of compassion end" But in what way does the law prepare , them, and the lanes. and doorsteps, and arches were crowded at night with these poor children of want, and their condition. was now worse than ever. The law could do no more. It was powerless. But was it a failure? No, not by any means. It prepared the way for grace. The Peubutly‘s and other phllantliropists cmne forwmd with their millions, and . the result was a wonderful improvement in the homes of the poor. The preacher then proceeded to point out in a very forcible lll'dlllleI‘ that the committee were inadequate to the her- culeaii task of cleaning out the Augean stables at Ottawa and Quebec, but if they only succeed in sliowuig the public how very filthy they are, they would have accomplished a noble and necessary work. After that. it remains for the honest, pure, enlightened electors of this Douiinion,of both sides of politics, to forget their party differences to such an" extent at least as Will enable them to join hands in tliispreseut crisis and complete the necessary work of purification. The foul beasts that have so long herded there II elitist-~52: slaughtered, and none of the some breed ever allowed to take their places. This necessary work cannot be accomplished by any law that Mr. Abbott or anybody else may enact, for "by the law is the knowledge of sin ” only. Nothing can remedy this evil but grace. Our only hope is that “where sin abound- ed grace may much more abound.” Grace sufficient. to enable us to forget our party sliibboleths, so for zit least as will enable us to clasp hands in the firm resolution that if by no other way than by the united effort of both Grit and Tory, the base, mean, couteuiptible thieves, be they found at Ottawa. or Quebec, who have abused the Confidence reposed in them, shall be driven forth with the execratiuiis of all honest men following them like the mark of Cain upon their brow._l..et us,sziid the preacher, as the enlightened electors of this land, demand that no man shall asipire to the honorable and responsible position of a Member of Parliament who is not like Caesar‘s wife, not oiilv pure, but above suspicion. Until we lay more stress upon the moral qualifications of the men who aspire to Parllalllellbal‘y honors thnii'we haw (lone hitherto, we may ex- pect repetitions of the same disgraceful kind that are now throwing the dark our CUllllU‘y.
