William Writ, late Attorney General Of the nj
ted States, on being invited to attend Sunday
School Meeting at Washington, and finding him
self unable to be present, addressed a letter Of
pology 10 the Agent, enclosing a donation of 80.
A copy of that letter i. here subjoined---
WAsulvCToN, Feb. 10th, 1881.
Dear Sir,-I regret that it is not in my
power to be with YOU this evening, that
might have united my humble efforts
with those Of our icllow-C citizens who NAV
be present, in advancing this great, and
ms believe, Heaven directed cause.
That "Liberty s Learning lean on each
other for support" is a truth which has
long beer known to the ise, s. Of which
we are all becoming convinced by fearful
experience Ii has been the ignorance
Of the people which hns long enabled ty-
rants to hold the world in chains; and
they have never failed to burst them a.
sunder whenever light has broken in
strongly upon them. But if they are
permitted to relapse into ignorance, and
its natural attendant, groveilng vice,
tyrants will rise again, under the name
Of patriots; and We shall see the world
re-plunged into Gothic darkness and des-
potsm. 1t is not in the nature oi'th.ngs,
that a popular government can long sub
sist but among an enlightened and yir-
fuous people; nothing else can shield
them against the designs of wicked and
intriguing politicians, who always come
in the name and garb Of pat io'Ism, and,
calling themselves friends Of the people.
cheat them to their rum. Every effort
therefore to enlighten the people, de-
serves the jealous support OF every gen
uine friend of liberty; and | hail, with
unaffected JOY, the ardor with which this
great and phi!anthropic plan has been
every where received. Viewed in
temporal and political light, merely, If
deserves the strongest support from all
who wish the continuance o! our free and
happy institutions at home; and when
we see the ciIec, that our example i.
producing on the world, tho motive for
our exertions rises to far iofior and no.
bier sentiment 1t is the cause, not Of
the United States only, but of the whole
earth. Ii is the cause Of tnan through
out the world; and who is there 40 poor
and sordid Of spirit, as to think only of
himself, when the great question is
whether this earth shall be inhabited bv
enlightened and virtuons freemcn, erect
and firm on the basis of independence,
or by hordes of ignorant, grovclIIug and
PROSTATE slaves, hugging their chains, S
licking the dust from the feet their OPP
