[To' the Editor of the SPECTATOR.]
Sut,—As a clergyman of the Chin& of England, I wish to expresS my full assent to all that Lord Sabiesen has said 'in his article in last week's Spectator. It is high time that, in the Church as in the State, very earnest consideration should be given to the question of so altering our Marriage law as to give effect to tbe principles of reform enunciated by Lord Salvesen: If the Church continues to withhold practical sympathy from the victims of the diSiOlute and heartless conduct of those who desecrate and, in effect, nullify the marriage bond, it will not only fail in its proper witness to the general spirit Of Christ's teaching,. but will suffer a serious loss of moral influence with the more thOughtfid part Of the nation.----I am, (Archdeacon. of Chester).
