Scriptural Law of Divorce. A public discussion; relative to the subject of the scriptural law of divorce, was held in the Disciple church on the evening of Thursday last, between Rev. G. W. Chapman on the affirmative, and Dr. P, W. Crum on the negative, of the following proposition : - Resolved, That: the scriptures teach that there is but one cause for divorce, and that a membßer of the Church of Christ, obtaining a divorce for any other cause and mar--3)1:“% :gam, should be expelled frqm.the

The discussion had its origin in a private Qonvernﬁon, on the subject of the Richardson-McFarland tragedy, between the dispzftantn; and it was carried to its conclusion in that pleasant and gentlemanly spirit which should ever be obseryed in publi¢ debates. The frequent interruptions, by persons passing in and out, prevented many who were seated remote from the speakers-from catching many good ideas. The meeting was called to order by Mr. Kniseley, and the opening prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Rhodes, of the Method ist church. Messrs. Isaac E. Kniseley, Andrew Humphreys and E. B. Gerber were chosen moderators, when the object ot the meeting was explained by the, firstnamed moderator, who then introduced the speakers. The following are a few of the many good arguments employed by the disputants: : : : Mr. Chapman opened the debate with a speech of thirty minutes, remarking that, as the scriptures were to be taken as the standard, it was strictly a biblical question ; that the importance of the question could be partially estimated from the interest- manifested in the late marriage of A. D. Richardson with Mrs. McFarland, a divorced widow, which has severely shocked the moral . sensibility and has aroused' the indignation of our whole people; that the effect of divorces was degrading, and that the granting of such should be stopped to prevent our furthcr degeneration. The speaker took the position that the law of the Lord was perfect, citing Deuteronomy, xviii, 15, which says, -

“ The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee.a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren like unto Me; unto him' ye shall hearken ;" 1

and other passages of scripture to prove that “ the law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul;” that “He is the true dight,” and that God said “ Hear ye Him ;” showing that whatever the Lord taught was true, and must be observed. The speaker then proceeded to give passages of seripture to support the resolution, first reading Matthew, v, 32, which says that Christ taught as follows : “That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall imarry ber that is divorced, committeth adultery.” Again, Matthew, xix, 9, gives Christ’s language nearly the same as the above. Mark, x, 11, says that Christ said unto his disciples : 4 : “ Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.” , ~ While the following verse reads: “ And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be mafried to another, she commitfeth adultery.” ks The speaker quoted from, Webster's Dictionary to show the proper. force of the marriage contract. Views.of Rev. Mr. Barnes, a noted Presbyterian divine, were read, to the effect that Legislatures had no right to interfere with this law of God, he also- quoting Matthew, xix, 9, in support of the position, ~ Alexander Campbell waﬁ given as authority for the statement thét persons had been expelled from }he Presbyterian General Assembly for ‘violating this portion of Christ’s teachings. 3

Dr. Crum, in introducing his arguments and illustrations, remarked to the effect that the influence of divorce laws was boundless, and that the subject should receive the attention and study of everybody. In reference to the authority of Matthew, v, 82, the speaker referred: to Dr. Scott as saying that the law was given to the Jews at a time when the prevalence of the custom of divorcing demanded a check, and he, as authority was un- | impeachable. It isa well-known fact that Christ, in addressing his disciples, taught charity and forbearance, and the Church of Christ should follow the example of its Head in judging the motives of others. In advocating the right to. grant divorces for other causes than adultery, Dr. Crum read Deuteronomy, xxiv, 1 ulyld‘ 2: : “ When a man hath taken a woman and married her, and it come to_pass that she find no favor in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her; then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house. “ And when she has departed out of his house, she may go and be another man’s wife.” il 9

The speaker drew a very touching picture of the safferings of some women, who are bound to brutal husbands, showing that the divorce laws were founded upon principles of mercy, and that was after the teachings of Christ. He said that the divorce laws were a check upon the evil practices of vicious men, and consequently a benefit to society. ' Mr. Chapman, in attacking the divorce law, ‘said that, in this State, a divorce could be obtained for adultery “or any other cause” which the judge might acknowledge as sufficient, thus making the granting of divorces discretionary with judges of courts.” He said that the-word “uncleanness” \in the last quotation by his opponent signified adultery; that the scriptures taught that adulterers should ‘be excommunicated ; and that we should not associate with adulterers, ** that they ‘might be ashamed.” Mr. Chapman yielded the balance of his time to'his’ oppo. nent. st mmal] o

! Dr. Crum' asked if the bible did not teach that men had put away their wives because they were hard hearted, whether they had sinned against God ornot. When a person is wronged; should’they not have redress? Is" theré no such thing as in- - compiitible marrisges? Often persons af: ‘ter_marriage find that dissolution . is ne‘cessary, and each, fully realizing the situation, honestly appeal to the courts for di‘vorcement : should such action, when they are fally convinced of its necessity, ¢xclude them from the ‘Ohureh ot Christ? Burely the forbearance manifested by the Lord does no teach so. ' The Doctorgave the ntor{éot the woman taken in adultery, | found jr‘theSth chapter of John, relating

how Jesus, knowing that the law'demanded that the shé should be stoned to death, said: “ He that is without sin among you, {let him first cast a stone at her.” This teaches that organizations should be care- | fulabout excluding persons from the pales of the Church. Instead of expelling or exccmmunicating them, the members should go to them in the right spirit, to convert them from their evil ways; they should be forgiven again and again, not only severty times seven, but as\ many times as sin is committed. The old Mosaicg laws permitted a wife to be put away at pleasure, and it had been so much abused, that the law given in Matthew wag promulgated, in order to put a restrdint upon the practice. " The Doctor, in speaking of the views of eminent divines on the subject of divorces, said that Revs. Henry Ward Beecher and Dr. W. B. Frothinghsm are eminent divines, and are supposed to understand the authority. they exercise; and in marrying Mr. Richardson and Mrs. McFarland, they sanctioned the-doctrine that divorces were not contrary to the laws of God; and they both kq'éw.iythat Mrs. McFarland obtained her diyorce-on the ground of incompatibility of temperament. | TThe floor was then yielded to Mr. Chapman, who remarked that it was better that one person should suffer, by being exclu: ded from the benefits of the Church, than that society should suffer by that person’s example. ‘ \The moderators have failed to give an expression of their opinion, as to whichi disputant presented the best arguments. Communicated. The legal profession ever has occupied, and always must occupy a conspicuous, important and influential position in society and in the State. The Bar is a learned as well as a liberal profession, and he w&o seeks to be a shining light as a lawyer, a worthy, useful member of society—and enjoy the respect and confidence of his neighbors and associates, must not lose sight of the duties he ‘awes to society—not forget the heart 'in cultivating the head. : Living and acting before, among and for the people, in a liberal and learned profession, a lawyer should be a gentleman in deportment, and an honest and honorable man in his deglings. S He should have complete control ever his passions—keep his temper in perfect subjection—never condescend to acts of petty revenge. When he so far forgets himself as to make his knowledgea of the law—nhis influence with .inferior courts—a weapon for revenge, h§ at once descends to the grade of a pettifogger, and the adage applies, “pigmies are pigmies still, though perched on Alps.” | To illustrate the foregoing remarks, to carry oud the adage, it is only necessary to call the atfention of the public toa re | cent law suit, in which the 'principal ac- | tor combined the dignity of the State— | the indifference and modesty of the pros- | ecuting witness, and the tharacter of coun | selor and advocate. . : f

The grave offense with which the crim inal stood charged was that he had with his right";fore-ﬁnger contemptuously tapped the nasal organ of the dignified oracle of the law, the “mighty oak” of the profession. ! 7 :

The heavy hand of the law having fixed its vise-like grip upon the “miserable (?)/ offender,” with no avenue of escape from| its power, he plead “guilty”—meek]y—| penitently—anxiously awaiting the sol-| emn sentence of the court. But no! the anger of the “mighty oak” was not to beé thus appedsed —the opportunity for a speech not’thus to be lost.

With stentorian voice he demarded a Jury—twelve good and lawful men—to assess the prisoners punishment. - Under the earnest protest of the accused, and over the mild objections of the court, the mighty counselor prevailed. Twelve ju: rors were called, not to try an issue, foi there was noue, but to assess damages and ANCrease costs. e el

The elogquent advocate, the digniﬁed State, the modest witness, made two flaming “red-hot” speeches—whose talismanic influence the jury could not withstand.—+ They retired, they deliberated, they retarned a verdict of “guilty,” (the prisoner bad already confessed that), and assessed his punishment at twenty.five cents, six dollars jury fees taxed against the defendant under a plea of guiltyt -~ | Ye Gnds! and is this justice? Are the laws to be thus administered? Are offenders to be thus bled—gutted? Must a defendant, who pleads - guilty, to avoid unnecessary costs, be compelled to paysix dollars to a jury, for the sole purpose ot gratifying the petty malice of a selfish and revengeful man? If so, it isa “deep, dark, damning” blot upon our legal escutcheon—a legal fraud—a judicial extortion. : “i o

ADVANCE PAYMENT.—NearIy all the country papers of Ohio have adopted the advance payment plan, and after fair trials pronounce it successful. Commenting on the subject the Akron Beacon says :

“This is_the right principle most certainly, and for his encouragement, and the benefit of all other newspaper publishers, who are still in the “gall of bitterness and the bonds of iniquity,” inseparable from the newspaper credit system, we would state that the Beacon was never so presperous before as it has been since the adoption of the plan in question, while the universal testimony of our subscribers is that it is far better and pleasant for them. Let newspaper publishers stand, boldly and firmly upon their “reserved right” in thie matter, and show to ::m public that they, themselves, place a fair CASH value upon their'own labor, and ap.on the products thereof, and the community will soon begin to have a higher appreciation of those labors, and patrpnize their home papers accordingly.”
