We have a right to express an opinion on
any subject, and act accordingly.
We think we have not an en- envy on earth.
We think the precepts inculcated in the
doctrines of the Saviour, should be adhered
to by all mankind.
We think sectarianism strongly urged up
on society has no beneficial effect.
We think all classes are endeavoring to
pursue a straightforward and simple road to
happiness.
We think no one can poin: out the right
road 70 heaven from that which is wrong.
We think the course frequently pursued
by influential members of religious societies
has bad tendency.
We think that religious chickering's are
much worse than political differences.
We think as the Apostle Paul suffered most
on earth, he deserved the highest post
awarded to the Twelve.
We think some members of the Methodist
Church have much method in their madness.
or It's a great pity that the productions
Of the soil Of Mississippi have to travel north
before they become duly appreciated.
