Some attention has been given in the public pa
pers, to charges made by the opposition papers,
against President Adams for riding on the Sabbath.
The facts are these He arrived in Providence on
Sunday, attended divine service, and just before
sunset left the town horseback, making, as we
understand, journey of 10 miles in the evening
at the same time, avoiding the press of company
which he certainly would have had in Providence.
The Jackson papers in New England, with single
exception that we have noticed, forbear to mention
the movements OF Mr.. Adams as violation of their
customs. Our own experience in the manners of
the people of the east, leads us 10 beefthat they
would not consider the movements of the President
as out OF order.


We have before us the Columbian Magazine of
August 1890, in which is noticed visit that Gene
raj w ashington and his suite made to Rhode Island
on Sunday, where he was well and honouraby re-
ceived.


We are no advocates for neglect of the Sabbath;
but we do not approve of the that has been in
this portion of the nnion the subject Of the Pres
ident's visit. lie knows as well as others, what are
the customs Of his native state, and what arc
the requirements OF the Scriptures.
