Is there no] dtngtr to be apprehended from eloquent and crafty Priests ? Could not such command' a4l «br-l 1 votes »od all the influence of their congregations ? 1 He (word of religious discord, which has denrofr ed more than plague, peftilcnce and famine, has loft its edge in thtfc fhtcs. We have seep in a public piotcfficm, Christian Mmifters of dtifeient denominations walking arm in aim with a Rabbi of the Je*s. Cut is there no danger of foment mgafrefh trilgiona difienttons, by exciting in the laity of different denominations, a conceit for the eanyingof their refpeft've Priests ? Or is there uo danger that such conufts would be excited ?" Oft which a correspondent remaiks—That the reasoning contained in the above quotation, is fub veifive of every principle of right, justice and 1 freedom. To point out, and ftigmatiae any cla& or profetfion of citizens, by disqualifying diftinc tioirs, is cleat!y an'invafion of ludcfeafible righi* ; to deprive them of their rank in focifty, antece dent to any ad by which they have incurred pte n.foment, is unjust ; and a community to hold a perpetual proscription over the heads of a panicu- 1 lar body of men, is an outrage against libeity that every one pofleflitig a paiticleof benevolence irttlft revolt sr. But why talk of u eloquent and crafty PriefU"— are tht re not eloquent and crafty Lawyers, Mer . chairs, Physicians, Farmers and others ?— 41 Cun ning and cralty" are convertible teims, fomctimes meaning one thing, and fbmetimes another. In Merchants, Lawyers, Farmers, See. they Agnify address and found reafomog—but applied to the Clergy, they always have a wicked meaning. An implacable spirit towards the Clergy, has been dis covered in many recent publications—for wbai good rcafon does not appear. Certain it is that no defcriptior* of pcrfons have (hewn thernfelves greater friends'to liberty and the independence oi the United States, than ttf* Cleigy. But there are some individuals in emcmg rts, who arc so te nactons of the rights of man, that they wilh to dfc i pi ive the people of thenght oi i hiuking and , ing for themlclvcs. Tbeie cieclatmeis for the peo » pic, are for taking the people under their own ■ (ruardiaiiihip—and to prevent the people from being imposed on by craft and cunnirtg, they would deprive them of the right of electing those whom the people may suppose the best qualified to P'°* mote their interefL— It would be just as wife to prohibit the people from electing any m>n who wea«s a black coat, or a wig, as to exclude 'he Clergy from the Legislatures in this country ; where the clerical proleflion boasts ot no legal andexclu five privileges, and where it can never be made an / engine of, unless by unjust clcrgymcn i fh.micV be compelled to form combinations in their own defence. 9 MOM ttir.
