 , NATIONAL PROrANATIoN OF THE SABBATH. T GENrLEMEN-In the last number of your paper notice communication from the Post Office Department, onthe subject ofthe trans pOrtati0n of the mail on the Lords day, ac- companied with an editorial remark. Seeing this communication and remark, has led me to send you the copy of Fast Sermon upon. this subject. Perhaps you will find some re- marks on the subject of the transportation Of the mail, (which was the very thing that gave risegto the sermon,) that may be usefully in- serted in your paper, in pretty close connex- ion with what have referred to. That part of the sermon which has the most of bearing on the transportation of the mail, is found in the last of two Practical Remarks. think this sin to be eminently notiondl sin. It is a deliberate and anthorized contcmpt or the day which Jehovah claims as his own. | know that in this matter preachers and editors

 have to contend with municipalities and pow CTS on earth, as we'll as with the invisible ru- Ter of the darkness of this world, and there is

 not much hope of any very immediate sue

 cess but it is our duty to be upon the field,

 with the whole armour of God. We have

 undoubtedly the right of the cause. The Bi-

 blc, and the God who inspired it, are on the side ofa national as well as individu0l sanctif- cation of the Sabbath. Of our allies we need not be ashamed: nor need we doubt of ever,ts ual success. When Michael and his angels

 fight against sthe dragon and, his angels, we

 know on which side will be the victory. The

 war may beprotracted beyond our expecta- l tion; but truth and righteousness will be at last

 triumphant. The time hope is not very

 distant when they who rule over men llrule ! in the fear of God.
