Now look at tho South and 1 mark how it hid actualized that very idea on its statutes, and 'reduced itld rigld practice in dealing with Its'fettered ijiilliotis; long before the aheet that promulgated the idea'had art existence. The Booth hVd rendered it pcnal lo taaCh a slave to read, end instead of the uritled preSS df the country, only now and IheHoho has erfed 'but against so- monstrous af policy. ’ Bill the people are beginning to Me it now, and to hate if, though ’hot a tithe of the opposition and denunciation is provoked by it, thatlhc mere nt. te’Wnce'of the sentiment by a Catholic bta done and ii'dning. Wo can dee neither consistency nor honesty of purpose in proscribing one set of men, for avowl ng a-sentiment which another body is permitted to re duce to practice with impunity. If Rome says— “. Education is a curse—therefore,iho masses should not heed a [; tted''—Tiic Protestant world is suffoca ted with indignation. Thousands are appropriated. to put down the Pope, and every sect is transformed into ap engine: of wrath and projected against the ■Mon of Sin, But the South says, nay, marls,— '“ Whoever shall teach the. masses to read, shall be pnnislipd with fine cud imprisonment!" This should throw the Protestant world into convulsions ; but does it 7 Oh, no; it falls asleep under the inffu ence of that beneficent opiate, the Democratic Idea I In fac(, as regards the legal proscription of the 'Smith, men think—“ The law doesn’t proscribe my children; it is meant for (ho niggers!*' Just go — it if meant for (ho “ niggers,” hut the principle, carried out, proscribes all.

But Who ar gues that white people ore ndt men 7 The'tt, again,Catholicism'danieS-tb men the right to disbelieve its dogmas. It assumes the right to do men’slhinking, lest heresies creep iirsnd choke the true seed. 'We Protestants abhor saoh monstrous tyranny in Romo, hot permit the South to proceed anon the aamo assumption, and to force obedience to, the rule, without ’ (he formality of a protest. If a slave dares to assume that all Jmen are heir to cer tain iailieouhh) rights — !i&, liberty and the pur suit of happiness”—why, ho is soundly whipepd, and pmliahly sold into a more degrading -servitude far )iis presumption. The slaveholder asserts the right to think for his slave as much as Romo does, fur hers. Then where ip. the difference 7 “01‘nig igcra" arc incapable of doing their ptyn thinking!" says one.
