TIE INSTRUMENTATION.

nc 4uCStiOu ndS 50 often Deeu asked
me what is to be the character OF the Re.
generator and where it is to be printed,
that | take the present time and opportu-
nifty TO answer The question as far as ON
able. IL we perfectly understood lis char
acter We could easily fnd for it location.
Many papers could not support their pres
ent character longer than they maintain
their present location. Il will not be so /
trust with the Regeneration. shall no,
tell what it absolutely will be. bat wha. in
my opinion it ought to be.
1t will be devoted 10 the building up of
no sect, party or association, distinct from
the greatest good oflhe whole community.
1t will not be pledged to supportthe par
ticu'ar views ofany class OF associa.ionists
But what is better and nooler, it will be
open for every one to express his or her

mol, OILY of the Southern slave, but
that ofthe oppressed and down-trodden al
the North. who is impelIed to support the
arisocracy here by different motive from
what induces the Southern slave to toll for
his master. Il will take higher Anti
Slavery ground than has yet been taken.
II will endeavor to show that only " he is
a freeman whom the truth makes free, and
that all are slaves besides !"
II will be open FIR free discussion Of
Social Science in all lis FORMS Ga this as
well as on other subjects it will recon-
mend TO hear all sides before deciding
Its friends and enemies are invited to take
the field. And from the free discussion
and thorough investigation which the sub
jet OF mans regeneration shall receive
from the trienis Of human redemption, II
is hoped the Truth will be broue h TO light,
and The best means of reforming and hap
plying our race will be shown.
1t can not be expected it will recon-
i mend every system OF morals alike, Meth
er will it endeavor to prohibit but rather
invite freedom of thought and of speech
upon every subject that claims our seri-
Gus attention While it labors 10 over.
throw the false Theology and The degrad-
ing institutions of sociely,it will endeavor
not 10 leave those whose gods have been
taken away without any support or hope,
bot will explain 10 them the true nature
and destiny of man and point out 10 them
the only IoId to uninterrupted and endur-
lug happiness. 1t will aim to pon, out
| the numerous evils of society and al the
same time present remedy that shall IF
fectuallv destroy them. The reorgan II
ton OF society will be prominent theme.
And as society has been brought Into its
present most wrelched state by its connec-
lion and participation with the grossly alb
surd aud abom nlb!e systems of religion
prevalent in our midsl. it will be necessary
10 point on! this connection, and the un-
soundness and errors of popular Theo'o-
ey, and by so doing, show that our re-
ligio9s system IS one Of the principal
sources of the ignorance and crime and
misery OF every kind in our land. Here
is wide field for discussion. Nothing
will be held too sacred 10 be questioned and
searched. 1T will recognize no Taber.
nacle as too holy to be looked into, and no
mount Sinai TOO awful and sacred 10 be ap.
preached. 1t will ask what is Truth"
and then not Pilaie-lilse and priest-lille re-
tire, but will enter heartily upon the search
AMI investigation. What has truth 20

hesitate TO come TO the light2 Never
Does it ever ask to be carefully bundled ?
Error only makes this seIfcondelnning
request.
1t will base the mental and moral re-
de,np,ion of man upon his physical re
generation. II will make physiological
reform the chief instrumenlaIily in L.
claiming the eluuon, the drunkard and the
sensualis,. Ii will make this the chi eff cor

attempt 10 rear. Without Physiological
