No one who perused the fjreat speech ol Senor
Cnstelar in the Spanish Cortes in response to
the ehmnpion of the party of intolerance, will
neglect to rend with fiiifeniecH Hie address hy
him ptiblihlied below. On the 4th inMant tlio
Cortes resumed the discussion of tlie proposed
C6tahlishinent of tlio Horimn Cutholle as the re
ligion of Spain. An article declaring that "tho
nation ohliges Itself to maintaiu tlie worship
nnd tho ministers of the Catholic religion'' was
incorporated in the Constitution hy a voto
of 17fi to 70, and then the (iiestiou catne up on
nn addition in these words:
The pulilic or private exercise of any other
worship remains guaranteed to all foreigners
resident in Spain without more limitations than
the universal rules of morals and riulit. If any
Fpnniards profess any other religion than
Catholic, all the dispositions of the foreoiu
paragraph are applicable to them.
On this Scnor Castchir spoke as follows:
Kknokkk Dki'I'tahoh: My position at this
moment is very disadvantageous, having to
peak after tlie mnnilicent address the Chainlier
lias just heard from Scnor Kchegaray, which
places him amongst the lirst orators of our coun
try, and with the knowledge that another orator
of the most glorious that oursoil has produced
has to suceccd me-iseuor Oloagii, Jn this
inanner my speech will lie placed, like humanity,
hetween two heavens hetween a irrc.it recollec
tion and a great hope. I do not rise in any way
to answer liy anticipation the speech of the re
nowned orator who has to follow inc. The
generation to which I belong has been born with
great respect for all our grand parliamentary
glories, and In this generation no one shall excel
me in admiration and respect. Jlere 1 liave no
wish that there should be coiiciicrors or con
quered, for I believe the glories of nil our parties
are glories of our country. We have no envies
one of another, and JSpa'in will not tread uuder
loot her great men as the "Ophelia" of Shake
speare trampled under loot the (lowers of her
Town, (ientlenien, a duly of conscience, which
I esteem sacred, as are all" my duties, impels me
to speak once more on tlie ((uestion of religion.
Neither the Congress nor the country need fear
that I shall attempt to raise or venture anv pro
positions upon this transcendental problem. I
know well the dividing line which separates the
legislator from the philosopher. Uevond this
place, in the colleges, w e have the right to dis
cuss the dogmas and to weigh them by the Inde
pendent criterion of our reason. Hut here, in
this Chamber, we have only the right to examine
the relations of the Church with the State, the
relations of religion with politics. (Cries of
"(iood, good.")
(ientlenien, if any hard word, if any inconve
nient phrase, if any theory more is les venture
home, has proceeded Iron! these benches, attri
laitc It not to our desire, but to the necessity
which spirits so long enslaved and forbidden to
express their ideas feci of giving utterance to
them, when they find themselves playing, for the
lirst time, upon the shores of liberty. The re
sponsibility of those irreverences of language,
in my opinion, more thuu upon us recoils upon
those religious magnates tho-e episcopal and
nrehicpiscopal magnate: who in former times,
which we ought to record for our experience,
although not for our ieenge. forced the hand of
the arbitrary powers to persecute and stifle
thought in tho weak, and who had not one w ord
of reprobation or censure to condemn the dis
orders and cruelties of the strong. Thoe arti
ficial chains have been broken. Thought rushes
forth restlessly and promiscuously, like the lava
of the volcano. And we must not ask of any
new thought that it be just to that which pre
ceded it. Christianity was not so w ith Pagan
ism. In those gods and iroddesses of old eter
nal models of the sculptor's art, to which nil the
generations have gone to define the
secrets of form the first heroes of Christianity
only saw the lurking smiles of tlie Devil. The
rcnaissant was not so with the middle ages. In
those Gothic cathedrals, sublime expression of
religious thought, souls as great as those of
Michael Angelo, of liravante. and of Herrera.
only saw the marks of ignominy where were
written up the barbarous in art and the barba
rous in man. Consequently, it U w surprising
thing that the generations who have had no
power hitherto to manifest the depth of their
religious ami philosophical thought, neither in
the college nor in tlie press it is no wonder that
they should come here and turn implacable
itgainst those pow ers, which, forgetting that true
Jorcc is moral force, snatched away the first of
our possessions the inviolability "of the con
science. This symptom may really atllict super
ficial men, but men of elevated spirit and right
mind, especially conservatives, will deduce two
grand lessons from what lias occurred; lirst, ilia
it is impossible, by repressive laws, to stay the
progress, and even the extravagance of thought.
Another thing will be seen also, which it, is
necessary should be made perfectly clear and
legible, namely, that in Spain, for thce or other
reasons, either philosophical or moral, there are
those who dissent from the religion of the State.
Those who oppose the idea ol the religion of
State have taught two things to the conservative
parties, who are those w ho are destined sooner
or later to rule, whatever may be the form of
government namely, that repressive laws
amount to nothing: and secondly, that after four
centuries of Catholic unity and" religious intole
rance, after a gagging of the press which pre
vented the depth of the conscience to be seen,
thought has eonie forth like the eruption ol a
volcano, and that tlie work of the committee is
justified, for there are those iu Spain who have
separated themselves lroiu the religion of the
State! Now, gentlemen, I direct myself espe
cially, in the first place, to the absolutists. How
can you avoid these differences ? What means
would you employ 't These are the ancient mea
sures, tlie measures which the Cardinal Arch
bishop of Santiago called the slala 7110. Would
you hum the dissentients as tliev burned
the philosophers and the Protestants"? Would
you expel the dissentients as they expelled
the Jews and the Moors? No! You cannot
employ the ancient measures ! Would you em
ploy the modern measures that is to say, that
lie who is not a Catholic shall not be a public
functionary, cannot exercise civil and political
rights? 1 hen you would have to place in this
Constitution general exceptions for those who
do not profess the religion of tlie State. Know
you what once succeeded w hen conscience was
persecuted, when thought was stilled, and when
they wished to rob a whole nation of its righu ?
The race took its Bible, its book of religion,
embarked iu a vessel, crossed the seas, arrived
in America, and there founded, under the heaven
God concedes to all beliefs, a new temple for
their new fuith.
rSWe have heard it said before that nil, abso
lutely all, ask that tho State shall protect and
defend Catholicism, because it is tho only true
one. It is said that on this side of tlie Chamber
there nre predilections against Catholicism. In
vain many orators of the minority have said that
while defending the liberties they were at the
same time Catholics. Nothing else has been
heard from the orators who dissent from the
beliefs nnd the religion of the State. Well, I am
about to sav a thing, which I have to say with
intimate, faith, us if 1 was presenting myself
before God, that if God should ak of mo in the
day of judgment an accouut of the good or bad
iiki! I have made ot mv few intellectual faculties,
I nm going to give to the Chamber, opening my
conscience, all my religious thought I do not
belong to the worm or tncoiogy aim laun; 1 ue
long to the world of philosophy and reason,
lint if at anytime I had to return to the world
oftnr I bad left it. I would certainly not embrace
'the Protestant religion, whose lciness would dry
nn my soul, my heart, and my conscience that
1 rotcstani religion w mm i" tvn vnwuj
of my country, of my race, nnd of my history.
I would return to the beautiful altar which iu
r.i. within me tho grandest sentiments of my
life- I would return to bend my knee before the
Holy Virgin.who calmed w ith her smile my first
Missions; I would return to soothe my spirit in
tec sunt of UiV luccmiC, i" tuv nvlo ol tho
organ, in the light licninlng through tho stained
glass windows of many colors, nnd reflected hi
the gilded wings of the angels, eternal com-
1 auions of my soul in my infancy, and on dyin
would seek nn asylum near the cross, whose
sncred nrni extend "themselves over tho spot I
most love and venerate upon the face of
the earth the tomb of my mother. (A spon
taneous burst of applause greeted this decla
ration of the orator.) Yes, gentlemen, if I
have any 'religious predilection. If I have
any predilection of sentiment nnd of faith, I
have it in favor of Catholicism! But what s.iys
Catholicism ? I am the truth ! Make me tho
only religion, make me the privileged religion,
fot I am the truth. Well, gentlemen, h ive not
nil other religions said the same? Willi thU
thought have they not justified nil the crime of
all the theocracies ? I am tlie truth, said Pagan
Ism, and it, gave, t lie hemlock to Socrates, and
Socrates died between the mockiiigs of tlio
people and raillery of the stage. I am the truth,
said Judaism, and it nailed up Jesus, and when
the leaders 01 the people went through the Held
of Jerusalem in tfmt sublime hour of His sub
lime agony, they said to Him, "If thou art tho
Son of God, come down from the cross!" I am
the truth, said Protestantism, to justify the exe
cution of Scrvetus, and the severe, the cruel,
the implacable Calvin enjoyed himself at Scr
vetus' agonies, nnd while bo died gnashing his
teeth in the eternal agonv of fanaticism, lam
the truth, has also said Catholicism, and it has
ruined and impoverished Spaiu in the name "f
religion of peace and mercy. t..''
'! litis, gentlemen, to religious intolerance
that eternal molester of the human conscience,
instead of that youthful humility w hose heart
only beats to love, and whose lips only open to
bless the iniiuisitors of the theocracies have
ever oflered. like the Idolators of the ancient
gods of India and America, human saeriticcs.
But concede for u moment that Catholicism is
true; I nsk Is It right to Impose a true religion
by force? Here from these benches many ven
turesome propositions may issue; I will not deny
it. They bale issued at times from my lips; 1
confess nnd I feel it. We have come here hot
from the press, hot from the tribune, hot from
the college. More than as statesmen, we have
come here as men of thought, and we have
heeded more the voice of our consciences than
our social interests. But I ask if ever there has
issued from these benches a proposition so scan
dalous as that which has issued from those
benches (pointing to the bishops), when a high
dignitary rose and said, 'Here are three millions
ol signatures of persons disposed to die in the
defense and sustenance of religious unity;" that
is to say, here arc three million of persons dis
posed to rebel against you Senators, and like the
nne'.eut soldiers of the old religions, like the sol
diers of Omar, to impose their belief on the other
Spaniards by force.
The human conscience and tlie mind reject
this idea, and protest against it. We, if we have
an idea, do not seek to impose it by force upon
anybody, like Omar imposed Mohammedanism
on the East. On the other baud, gentlemen,
what is error? In what does it consist? Krror
is nn infirmity, and this infirmity, 1 sfiy it to
those sacerdotcs whom I see here invested" with
their sacred mantles this infirmity, Senores
Saccrdotes, of the Gospel this infirmity. Senor
Manterola (loud laughter) this infirmity, if it
merits anything, it is tlieseutinieut of vour com
passion, uot of your vengeance: and if it needs
anything, it is the remedy of the truth, not of
force. (Loiul applause.) " Yes. gentlemen, reli
gion, like morality, cannot be true for the life if
it is not also true for the conscience. Religion
cannot work on our will if it does not first work
on our understanding. What does religion do?
It blesses the crude, guides the first dawn of the
intellect to the truth and tho lirst steps of
tlie life to the good: purities tlie heart
so that our lirst loves shall not be as
the corrosive poison, but ns a liquor full
of the sweetest scents: tightens the bonds
of the family, not only by the voice of con
science and the sentir.icnt'of aitection, but by
tlie community of beliefs; phuc the note of
infinite in nrt, and tlie light of tho absolute in
science; converts the love of country into a wor
ship, and the life of the citizen into a priest
hood, and, when the exigencies of society
require it, into a martyrdom; and, when wo ap
proach our last hour, and draw near to tho
abyss of eternity, sustains and consoles us, pro
mising that our good deeds shall not perish,
but shall remain throughout nil time, bound up
in the human spirit, nnd promising us also that
the essence of our life shall not evaporate, but
shall ascend from region to region until it loses
jtself ju the bosom ol ib God. (Ti'iH'udou-j
applause.)
But. gentlemen, and this I aU e-pccially from
my friend, Scnor Manterola: ho with so' much,
attention listens to 111c ( Manterola had been
reading a book at the time, and paying 110 atten
tion at all until this pointed cut'ot Catclar's
and the roars of laughter of the linu-c compelled
him hurriedly to close it) I ask of Senor Man
terola, can religion or can morality answer to
any of these ends if it is not voluntarily accepted ?
Instead of refining us by grand sentiments, it
degrades us if we have uot taitli; instead of
guiding us to good, it guides us to evil; instead
of helping us in the education of tlie little ones,
it disturbs us in this sacred ministry, for we
cannot teach tho lips as truth that which the
heart feels as a lie; instead of strengthening in
us the love of country, it grounds us iu haired,
for then the country "will not be the hearth, out
the dungeon of the soul. And then in our last
hour a religion with whose ceremonies we are
not con formed, whose beliefs are not accepted
by our heart and our intellect a religion of this
ciass will cause us doubt between our faith as
men and our faith as citizens, and convert into
a ridiculous farce the sublime tragedy of a death
in which commences immortality, and iu which
the man has to present himself before God, who
can sec w ith His scrutinizing vision the depth of
our conscience.
Castelar went on to show from history thnt a
forced religion led to no good, but, 011 the other
hand, to great evils. He said liberty was uot
the end ot history it wns only an instrument to
good. The end of liberty was the good of all.
What wns the definition" of good? Ho would
give them the one his mother taught him
"Good is that each may comply in the scale of
creation with the destiny for which lie had been
created." Very well, if good was the end of
life, what were tlie means to attain it? Certainly
none but moral ones; certainly not force, but
liberty, lake liberty trom art, and it would no
converted into a less beautiful thing than the
song of a bird; take it from labor, and it would
convert it into the blind movement 01 a machine;
take it from tho affections, and it would convert
them Into nothing less than the ferocity of tlie
wild beasts; take it from polities, and the people
would full into the sad indifference and eternal
somnolence of the Oriental race; take it from re
ligion, and it would convert that sublime code
for life and death into a police ordinance, and
turn (iod into an agent of public order God
who had given to all worlds tho law of attrac
tion, that they might comply with their eternal
harmony, and the light of liberty to tlio soul
that it might comply with that other and even
subliincr harmony the harmony of justice.
Examine all the words of Christ, and you will
see they all contained religious toleration. You
who extend your maledictions over a society
which embraces religious liberty, you are want
ing to the doctrines of Christyou differ from
tho Saviour of tho world. But, gentlemen, do
not believe in any manner that you will ever see
the Roman clergy converted. The Koman
clergy never repent or amend. As Alonso Ca.no
says: He knows Uomo badly who would pre-

clergy will continue by M ,1R.UU8 um, with all

in history the Church might have reconciled

eleventh century, when Pascal II signed the treaty
of butrl, by which ho resigned tho sword
to the Emperor, and he himself took tho "anlllo "

nnd abandoned tho civil jurisdiction. Ju
that moment the separation of tho Church from
tho State might have been realized. Tho other

lie were the spirit of Christ transfigured In the

In both the eleventh and in the nineteenth centu
ries, the reactionary spirit of tho clergy has
made completely impossible liberty for tho
Church and liberty for the State. When they
last met together the bishops of Home were on
the point of declaring the temporal power of tho
1'ope ns a dogma of faith, to tho eternal servi
tude of the Itomans.
Do we nl know that nn f Ecumenical Council
is about to assemble, nnd it Is rumored that wo
run the danger of having settled as articles of
faith the 80 articles of the Syllabus, which will
ruin our society, our constitution, and our
rights! If I were a priest; if I were a cltriro,
like his excellency; if I represented here any of
the Christian titles, ns In some moments this
Chamber, by the questions treated of iu it. may
be said to be converted into a temple and its
ministry into 11 priesthood, I would lift up my
hands to God and sav, "Bless the legislators who
nre seeking to establish religious liberty, which
is part of Thy love; bless tho legislators who arc
seeking to reconcile nil classes and all people;
bless tliose legislators, for before them there are
not, as there are not before Thy majesty, Jews
or Gentiles, but men: bless those legislators who
seek to realize the grand ideas which emanate
from Thee, and to establish upon the face of the
earth those two essential principles of Thy per
fect and incommunicable Being Thy love and
Thy justice."
He sat down amid tremenduous applause,
which lasted some minutos. The amendment
was carried I v lf'si voles to 40.
