TOPICS OF THE DAY.
Supremacy of The Law. “We arc struggling for a great cause—the cause of the supremacy of the Law. Britons, of all men, should be enthusiastic for such a cause for supremacy of the Law is the foundation of all our polity. On that principle, depend our liberty, our stability, o lir prosperity. Hear what a great Elizabethan said of it: ‘Of Law there can be no less acknowledged than that her scat is the bosom of God, the harmony of (lie world. All things do her homage, the very least as feeling her care, and the greatest as not exempted from her power.’ That is well said, and I am convinced that pence can be maintained by the supremacy of the Law uud nothing else.” ?—Viscount Cecil.
