A LESSON FOR PRoTEsTANTs- late
. number of the Pennsylvania Freeman
states that for the last two years the color
ed schools of Pbilade phia have been pos
( lively prohibited from taking any part in
the annual celebrations of the Protestant
Sunday Schools. The Catholic Sunday
| Schools on the other hand, have freely
admitted The colored schools to their cele-
brations, and in their professions made no
distinction on account of color.
4 Which of these courses is most in ac-
cordance with the will Of Him who is"no
respecter of persons which is most in
harmony With spirit of that religion
which teaches that God " hath made of
one blood all nations;" that 1--WE have
one Master and all we are brethren - and
that 81 If We fulfill the royal law, thou shalt
love thy neighbor as myself, We do well,
but if We have respect unto persons, ye
commit SIN and are convinced of the law
| as transgressors 2" Let every man an
swer according to his own conscience in
the sight OF God.-Voice Of Feedmm.
