THE NEW FACE OF AN OLD TAUTY.
From Harper' Weekly.
It is sometimes uskoJ why, of nil the roll
Rious sects in this country, tha Rowan Ca
tholics excite the most hostility, and are
oftenest most noveroly denounced. IIve
they not, it Is asked, exactly the same rights
as all other sects f Certainly they have; bnt
tho difficulty is that the Koman clergymen
are not satisfied. They are determined to be
a political party also. Indeed, not only have
all the sects equal rights before the law, but
the nniform tone of the press except, of
course, the religious press, which naturally
advocates its various theological views is
one of equal respect for all communions.
Neither the Methodists, nor the Baptists, nor
the Presbyterians, nor the Unitarians, nor
the Episcopalians, nor the Congregation
alists, nor the Roman Catholics, nor the
Quakers, can justly complain that, as sects,
they are not treated with the utmost impar
tiality and respect in all newspaper discus
sions. What is called the attack upon the
I torn an Catholics is properly the attack of the
lloman Catholio clergymen upon an integral
part of our political system. The Government
absolutely severs Church from State; and
everybody in dealing with the State leaves
bis sectarian views behind him, except the
lloman priest. The rest of us are not Pres
byterians and Baptists and Methodists when
we take part in politics; we are American citi
zens only. But the lloman priest insists that
he and bis sect shall be regarded by the State
as Romanists. It is the instinctive opposition
to that claim which is called the attack npon
the lloman Catholics.
The lloman Church, which for so long a
time controlled the chief governments in the
world, has never relinquished the theory that
the ecclesiastical, or what it preferred to call
the religious, authority was, necessarily, supe
rior to the temporal, llence the Pope claimed
the right to dethrone kings .and release sub
jects from their allegiance. This was the
doctrine and the practice of Gregory VII.
Clement VII absolved the subjects of Henry
VIII from their duty, as Innocent III had
absolved these of King John. Thus the
Roman Catholio leaders have always
chosen to be a political party, while
they have claimed the immunity of a reli
gious sect. It was this fatal folly that
led to the execution of Campian and the
Seminary priests in England under Elizabeth.
The country was full of the emissaries of
Philip and the Pope, stirring up conspiracy
against the Government. It was simply a
struggle for life and death. Campian would
not say that he believed the Pope could ab
solve the political allegiance of the subject.
That was the notorious doctrine of the
Church; and therefore, when some one ex
claimed, "In your Catholicism all treason is
contained !" he expressed a very general feel
ing. Campian declared that he was executed
for being a lloman Catholio. The truth is
that he was punished for inculcating, at that
most critical moment, tne dootrine tnat a
lloman bishop was the political superior of
the English Queen, a doctrine which, at the
time and under the circumstances, was in
tolerable.
When the English lloman Catholics sought
release from their political disabilities a cen
tury ago they repudiated this doctrine, and
the "seminaries upon the Continent also ex
measly denied it. lint tne rope now re
asserts it, and unquestionably with great
logical force. The clergy 01 his Church in
this country support his position by demand
ing that one of the fundamental conditions
of this Government namely, the total
separation of Church and State shall be
abolished. They deny, indeed, that they
demand it. Kev. Mr. Preston says, in
urging a division of the school fund: "Tho
State has nothing to do with religion; it only
recognizes tne tact tnat there are so many chil
dren who belong to a particular communion,
and gives to them their proportion of the
fund." But surely Mr. Preston sees that
when the State does this it recognizes sects,
while non-recognition of sects is the very es
sential point. When the State does what he
suggests, it educates the children not as citi
zens but as Methodists, Baptists, and lloman
ists. And precisely because experience has
taught the people the deplorable conse
quences of doing this very thing did they pro
hibit the State from knowing who belongod
to one "particular communion" and who to
another. The people have imperatively de
clared that neither pope, cardinal, arch
bishop, bishop, priest, nor deaoon of any
sect, nor any person whatever in a sectarian
capacity, shall meddle with politics.
Do we therefore deny the right of Roman
Catholio priests, as American citizens, to do
what they can to persuade the people to
change the law, and to permit the State to
become sectarian? Not at all. They may
and they do argue for it, precisely as we argao
against it. But while they are doing this
they must not talk about persecution and re
ligious liberty and tho rights of conscience.
The State says that secular eduoation shall be
freely provided for all children. The lloman
Catholio priests say that they think secular
education is irreligious, and claim to have a
certain share of the money raised, or to be
released from taxation. The State replies
that it is impossible to do that without
falling into immeasurable difficulties; but,
of course, it does not oppose any kind of
religious instruction under private direction;
it simply declines to give it. It cannot aban
don its feystem of free and unsoctarian
schools because of a plea that mere seoular
instruction is irreligious, any more than it
can abandon its laws against bigamy, and the
taxation that enforces them, because of a
plea that there is a sect which holds poly
gamy to be a part of its religion. Tho State
will interfere with no man's religion, but it
will punish bigamy. One class of citizons may
raise a point of conscience agiinst tho teach
ing of this brauch of knowledge, another
ruinst that. But the common' sense of
all shows that as all must be educated,
nd nan be best educated at the common ex-
nense. the only practicable and just and equiil
method is to provide an elementary seoular
education for all, and to leave relirnom in
struction to the direction of parents. This
in what the lloman priests as politicians op
pose, and insist that not to yield to thorn is
to coerce their consignee! So the old slavery
nurfr nsfid to urea that to forbid slavery
in the Territories wns to deny equal rights
and to withstand Christianity, They were
iK.iltpii; end tho new party will diacovor
that it is mistaken also.
USEFUL DISCONTENT.
From the K. T. Tribune.
Before the war. when the nation had much
less than now to boast of, we were all rather
boastful. We used to brag rather loudly of
nnr free schools, lor instance, ana ot tne
career open to till young people whom they
trained. Since the war, an epoch of oroaking I
hns Hit in. Perhaps it will disappear with I
the income tax; but meanwhile it U tho
fashion to sny that our wholo system, schools
and all, leads to a great deal of heart-burning
and social discontent. We have seen this
more or less plainly hinted in half-a-dozen
speeches and essays ot late, mostly from per
sons fresh from foreign travel; lor your
travelled American is apt to boast of his
native land until he returns to its shores, or
rather he is like Horace Walpole, who said
that he should love his country very much,
if it were not for his countrymen. And as
your American, under such circumstances, is
apt to be suuenng under a doubio discontent
that which took him abroad, and that which
attacks him on returning his eye for that
emotion must naturally be pretty sharp.
So we are discontented, are we? Tho bet
tor for us ! It is the maxim of Oriental gov
ernments that a man should be "content with
his caste." It is the result of modorn govern
ments that he should be discontented with it.
It applies not merely to America, but to all
countries so far as they are Americanized.
Modern history is the history ot discontent,
and since the French Revolution the old
social order has satisfied nobody. Mrs.
Trench, in her delightful letters, found great
fixedness of caste in Germany in 17!)!), and
contrasted it with "the mixture of ranks"
which was already visible in London. "Here,
every one remains contentedly in their own
claHg there, all are struggling to associate
with those above them, whence proceeds a
vast share of expense and dissipation," Yet
now Germany is where England was then,
and tho England of to-day seems a "fierce
democracio" compared with the England of
George IV.
Is all this a good thing ? Certainly it is.
The first step towards improvement is discon
tent. Dissatisfaction with manual labor, for
instance, makes men work with their brains;
and this is what keeps the Patent Office busy.
"Set men working by tho piece," said the
head of a great manufactory, "and each man
begins to contrive some way to save labor,
and soon they accomplish more. They dou
ble riyM vp." In this way, the great mecha
nical improvements come. Take away the
wholesome discontent as regards poverty and
hard work, and the man invents no more
machines, but becomes one himself.
Wordsworth, the poet, thought it well that
the poor should learn to read, and perhaps to
write, ".but this, he added, "is far from
equally certain." The poorest immigrant on
our shores is, so tar, wiser than the phuos
ophio poet, that ho finds it quite certain that
ma child will need tne whole of the three It s.
He knows it will make him discontented, and
sends him to school for that purpose. Once
fortified with "learning," the boy is expected
to make some use of it to become a saint, or
an alderman, or something, lhe London cos-
termonger told Air. Alayhew that every man
wished his son to have a better start in the
world than he himself had; and what is there
a vision may here be a reality. If our free
schools excite all with the wish to be gentle
men and ladies, so mueh the better. The uni
versal struggle will, in timo, elevate the mean
ing of those words. Indeed, it has already
done so. "uentieman ana lady once im
plied a social distinction, but they now imply
a personal distinction they refer to manners
and education, not to property or pursuit. It
is a great step. People advertise for "sales-
ladies" in shops, assuming the new but true
opinion that every shopwoman should be as
ladylike as her customers. Lven in England
partly through the reflex influence of America
the same improvement goes on; and you
may "hear a tinman in a municipal council
rebuke a grocer for not behaving like a gen
tleman, or a candidate address the mob at the
hustings as 'gentlemen and electors.
This social ambition brings follies with it,
no doubt. But the first thing is to have the
ambition the power to direct it wisely comes
afterwards. Social discontent leads foolish
people to folly, but it leads the wise to self
improvement, to virtue, culture, and the
graces. The energy that marks American
men, the "capable" qualities that mark the
American woman, grow directly from our
social condition, and, above all, from our free
schools. Where all are educated, the days of
privilege are ended. Bringing each year a new
generation into the pursuits ot lite, our schools
gradually infuse through the whole community
a desire for something better than their fathers
had. With a few this desire will take the
form of "shoddy" display. With others it
will take the form of more rational and agree
able living. It will lead some to despise
labor, but others will learn by it to elevate
labor into something more eonobling and
more attractive. The dream of Napoloon
that in France all trades should be elevated
into arts is likely to be first reached in Ame
rica. Until then, it is the duty of all to bo
dissatisfied. The biographer of young Gene
ral Lowell, who fell so nobly in the late war,
says that, after leaving college, "he viewed
the actual order of things with a generous
discontent, of which Mr. .hnierson said: I
hope ho will never get rid of it.' " And the
attitude of that young hero is the proper atti
tude for all.
, THE GREAT EXODUS.
From the Lawrence (Raman) llepublican.
No previous year in the history of Western
immigration equals the present. Everybody
is "going West, and more would come if
they could sell out. This feat cannot always
be easily accomplished. Money is scarce, and
sales of farms are not readily made at the
East. But pretty much all who can dtsposo
of their effects are doing so, and coming to
the broad prairies and cheap lands of the
West. They seek free homes in this rich and
broad domain, and are ambitious to aid in
raising up tho splendid civilization we are
here building.
The opportunity for investments was never
more favorable in Kansas. Our railroad sys
tem is pretty well developed, and parties can
now make their selections with a certainty as
to the future advantages of railroads. Our
lands are rapidly advancing in prioe, but are
not yet beyond tho reach of the man of mode
rate means. Even the poor man can got a
home upon the public lauds for tha taking.
Kansas has settled down into one of the solid
and substantial States. Farmers no longer
entertain fears of the drouth, grasshoppers,
and Indian raids. Nearly all the advantages,
meh as schools, churches, railroads, and the
like, We now possehs. With nine hundred
miles of railroad in operation in our State,
one can, in a very short time, traverse nearly
the whole surface of the Stute, and obtain a
knowledgo of the various localities, their ad
vantages and inducements for settlement.
Immigration is pouring in at tho rate of
about one thousand per day by the different
lines of railroad centring within our eastern
border. To this number is to be added the
hundreds and even thousands coming by
private conveyances, bringing their families
and "household gods" with them. This num
ber is not as large as before the era of rail
roads. Still, it is very large, as the numerous
covered wagons, in the streets of our larger
towns, daily bear witness. These parties
generally bring with them more or lo.ss of
stock and household "plunder." They come
prepared to make settlement at once and open
up farms.
Una universal immigration to Kansas is no
spasm; it is liased upon no hallucination or
wild fancy. The people are lured here not by
dreams of sudden wealth through mining
speculations, for of the precious metals Kan
sas has none. Gold and silver she has none.
But such as she has she gives as a gratuity
lands for the taking, a genial climate, short
seasons, and many long and productive
months favorable to the growth of all kinds
of grains and cereals. She assures the sottler
that he is locating in the greatost stock and
fruit region in all the Western States. Here
labor will meet with a sure reward, and capi
tal receive remunerative rotnrns for invest
ment. Lands bought at $5 this year will be
worth $10 next year. Welhave so often seen
in this State this wonderful multiplication of
wealth, that we are jnstmed in making these
statements. The real and substantial advan
tages of Kansas as a field for immigration are
being appreciated, and hence this great
exodus, this pouring in of this unparalleled
stream of immigration to enrich, fertilize,
and adorn the State.
SENATORIAL QUALIFICATIONS TnE
CASE OF GENERAL AMES.
From the N. T. Time.
The debate in the United States Senate on the
credentials of General Ames, the Senator-
elect for the State of Mississippi, is full of
instruction as to the moaning and intent of
the Constitution in regard to the qualifica
tions of the Senatorial office and the right of
any citizen of the United States, of nine
years' standing, to represent any State in the
Union in the Senate or House of Representa
tives, without qualification as to the term of
inhabitancy in the State. The Judiciary
Committee reported that General Ames could
not take his seat because he was not an in
habitant of the State when elected within the
meaning of the Constitution. It was not
pretended that the question had any material
personal or party significance. On the con'
trary, it was conceded that ueneral Ames is
now an inhabitant, and if sent back would
assuredly be re-elected; but the majority of
the committee claimed that at the time of the
original election he was not an inhabitant in
the legal sense. In support of this view it
was alleged that if he had failed of an elec
tion, ho might not have remained in Missis
BipFi.
The Republican majority in the Senate
differed from this conclusion and the techni
cal argument upon which it was founded.
General Ames had been a resident of Missis
sippi in his military capacity for about
eighteen months. When his duties as Mili
tary fcrovernor were about to coase, he was
solicited to become a candidate for the
Senate, and being of tho proper age, and a
citizen of the United Status of more than nine
years' residence, and living in Mississippi "at
the time," it was held that the facts of his
election and acceptance constituted sufficient
proofs of the other constitutional qualification
of inhabitancy.
Aside from its immediate interest, the de
bate developed the technical me:iuing of the
term "inhabitant;" and secondly, the real
intent of the Constitution in the use of the
term, without prescribing, so far as State
lines are concerned, any particular time or
term of years of inhabitancy. It transpired
that this last point was made in the conven
tion that framed the Consitution of 17H!.
Mr. Ilutledge, of South Carolina, moved an
amendment to the e fleet that three years
local inhabitancy should be required. Mr.
Read, of Delaware, suggested that as the
convention had met to frame a constitution
in the name of the whole people of tho United
States, irrespective of State linos, no suoh
qualification ought to be imposed. It was
sufficient, he contended, that a Congressman
should be simply an inhabitant of the State
when elected, of the requisite age, and a cm
zen for nine years of the United States. Only
two States, South Carolina and Georgia, voted
to prescribe a term of State inhabitancy, and
the amendment was lost.
These facts sufficiently dispose of tho vul
gar taunt of "carpet-bagger, whether applied
to General Ames or any other man now re
presenting the Southern States in the Senate
or House of Representatives, or to Mr. Uox,
late of Ohio, representing tho Sixth district
of New York. His place of birth or place of
previous residonce has really nothing to do
with their qualifications to represent a parti
cular State, provided, if not born in the
United States, ho had been nine years a citi
zen in any part of the United States; for if
the kte war settled any one point more em
nTiniinnlltrVan nflAtllA. f'ltrad Vl a f wa Ofd fT A
people. The right of the freemen (and freed-
men) of the reconstructed faouthern htates,
without distinction of race or color, to select
their own representatives, without respect to
their previous inhabitancy, would therefore
seem to be no longer doubttui.
In England, the right of constituencies to
select their members of the Commons House
of Parliament is unlimitod. The question of
residence or inhabitancy within the borough
or couniy has nothing to do with this port act
freedom of selection. But our Constitution,
without drawing the slightest distinction as
to citizenship or residence within the United
States, whether North or South, last or
West, requires that the Senator or Repre
sentative elect to the Congress of the United
States shall have a local inhabitancy at the
time of his election. And it seems clear from
the tenor of tho recent debate that one or
threo days' inhabitancy is, for all constitu
tional as well as practical purposes, as good
&s one or threo years.
THE COMING WOMAN.
From the tf. Y. Herald.
The passaao of the fifteonth amendment to
the CouHtitution of the United States has hud
at leant one beneficial effect bo far aa our po
litical status in concerned in this country, to
wit. the clearinc of thd track for the sixteenth
and as many other amendments as may be
deemed necesbary and becoming towards tuo
attainment of a liberal and benignly compre
hensive syhtem of representation and partici
pation both in the making and the adminis-
tration of laws. The woman is inevitable.
and she is "cominn" on the chariot wheels of
woman s sweet wilfulness ana ner irresistibly
captivating appeal for a chance to experiment
amonc the rulers.
For some time nast the sorrowful sister
hood "SoioKis" has Dined itself into melun-
choly over strong tea at Dolmonioo's because
of the obstinacy or ncaloct of their auto
cratic husbands in not allowing them to
organize among themselves coteries of female
repeaters, ballot Btufl'ers and primary strikers.
And this waste and emaciation of womanly
tears and womanly beauty has
as vet achieved no result whatever
bevond its corollary of miseries. Bo, too,
with the woman fmffrnge meetings in this
city they have dissolved and have been
reorganized three or four times, and it re
mained for the sturdy women of the Westjto
first curry their little tinted paper votes to
the polls, and, with lace handkerchiefs, wipe
tears of nnguibh from their eyes in tho jury
box whilo deliberating on the guilt or inno
cence of a murderer of the sterner sex.
Now, however, there is a fitting opportunity
for the women throughout the land to show
their might, independent of any of these petty
organizations, by voting for a candidate for
the Presidential succession of 187U, and by
inducing the men to vote, "just for once," in
favor of a woman for President. Mrs. Victo
ria C. Woodhull, tho lady broker of Broad
street, independent of all anffr'a tea parties
i - j . . , , . .
ana urnuuj ussociauons, proclaims nerseu as i
a candidate ior tue occupancy-in-chiet ot tne
v hite House, nnd asks it on tho score solely
that she has tho means, courage,
energy, and ability necessary to con
test the issuo to its close. Now there can
certainly be no objection to such a com
petition as this. It possesses the merits of
novelty, enterprise, courago, and determina
tion, and but one thing is lacking to secure
her triumphant election. That one thing is a
sixteenth amendment, civing to womon all
over the land the elective franchise. One
other thing will secure her success, and that
is a spirit of chivalry on the part of the men,
which, if they will not pass a sixteenth amend
ment, will prompt them to refrain from put
ting up a candidate of their own sex. Women
always take the part of each other, and if the
women can be allowed to vote, Mrs. Wood
hull may rely on rolling up the heaviest ma
jority ever polled in this or any other nation.
Her platform is short, sharp, decisive, and
has the true ring in it. Now, then, for an
other amendment and victory for Victoria in
