“An Inquirer, Hoxton.” We fully enter into your feelings in reference to traveling by rail on the Lord’s Day. We do not want to legislate for others; but we may be permitted to say, that we look upon railway traffic on the Lord’s Day as a systematic and deliberate profanation of a day which we desire to see devoted to the Lord’s service. We only speak for ourselves. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. God forbid that we should “judge another man’s servant. To his own master he standeth or falleth.” But we honor the feelings of our correspondent, and strongly recommend him to pursue his present self-denying course.
