unequal laws ?” I answer by asking hint ii it
has not also “elicited ilie opinion of many of
our wisest statesmen, profound jurists and
liberal philanthropists,” in favour of its ‘•Con
stitutionality, wisdom and practability?” We
do tint wish the Legislature to pass the law
if the m ijority of the people are opposed to it,
even it's licit a thing was possible. Let the
Legist it tiro pisl the law and submit il to the
people for ratification. We are willing to
abide lb : ism :. ’ll is J w ‘ll known f icl ol mo

p tble of check or as Inc body
h is the free exercise of its natural ftt ictiotis.” I
A'e we to understand by this, that ru ill is an
irresponsible Being, blindly Idlowi
dictates of passion ; and if his legs cm entry I
him to a b tr-moin that there is no im r il con-1
sideralion that c.rn restrain the gratilication of
his appetite / If so, (. beg leave however to
dissent from this Phi.osophy) is it not an ad- j
dition and reason why temptation should ie re- 1
moved ? “It is natural” he continues for a
“desire or morbid appetite to s ek the at
tainment of any object trivial or important,
with an ardour and exertion commensurate
with the obstacles natural or artificial,
thrown in the way of their gratilication.”
And is this a reason why a system which
the writer admits is conducive “neither to
the morality, welfare, uor respectability of
any clans of men” should lie tolerated by ,
the people ? Because men possess “mor
bid appetite*” which will seek their grati
fication is there to be no protection against
their encroachment upon the good order of
Society and the peace of families? Are
iiipii possessed of “mordid appetites” to
control the great mass of the people? The
gentleman says: such a law, would “es
tablish a grand prerogative fir the uch that
is scarcely paralleled in the -a i ials of des
potism.” iiy whom is this law to be pas
sed ? By a haughty monarch, oi by the
people ? Has ii it the p >or man his vote,

that “L<*x N uurtc” steins to apprehend
from the enactment of the law than myself.
That there would be cum xciic n c n! up m
the subject, is very possible. Like L)eme
trous of old, the venders of this article will
sound the alarm that not only is their
, “craft in danger to he set at nought,
but also that the Temple of their Ood.
dess is to be despised.” Nir would
it be “passing strange” that some shew of
resistance should be made. But if public
opiui >n passes the law, public opinion will
also* cpforce the law, and allav the momen
tary excitement it may cause. The design
ofixw is the protection of virtue, and the
suppression of vice. Why may not its arm
be felt upon this subjei . of morality, as
well as any other? Does it not prohibit
the desecration of the Sabbath? Are noli
men by luw cuhi f t iled to close the it stores,
and abstain from the ordinary pursuits of
life upon that day? We go not into the
Legislative Halls us a Temperance Socle*
tv, but as riti'/.etis deeply sensible of the
magnitude of the evil, pi living for it redress
of grievances. Does “Lex Naiur.n” ques
tion our ii Jit to do so? I urn willing to
concede to him all he professes with re
gard to Temperance, but l must express
my “regret that he as well as many other
respi rlable and zealous citizens do not take
a more cotnprt lumsive, liberal and practi
cal view us the subject.”

“THE DIAMOND NECKLACE.”

Mr. Editor—Since I left Saratoga, I have
noticed an urticle in severul of the papers,
in relation to a “ilia.non I necklace” worn
by a young ladvx (a daughter of Mr. William
