journed, nor even that they had adjourned
to any day certain, we did not suppose thai
there was any immediate urgency in the
matter. But at our "earliest convenience, =
as they requested resuining, Of course,
that they were aciuated BY high and hon
CRADLE motives in thus interrogating u.s.
we did reply to their letter, respectfully
fully and frankly. The committee reported
that they had received no reply from US;
but they must certainly have received it
very shortly after their last meeting; and
we cannot doubt but that it will be, If it
has not been, laid before those cilizens on
whose behalf they addressed US.
We have here presented, the anomaly
Of a public censorious expression from a
distinct class Of citizens with reference to
the conductor Of public journal who,
though differing with them on the subject
Of religion, has on all occasions faithfully
defended them against the bigoted spirit Of
derision and prescription manifested by
the federal press and party Of the country
-one who has uniformly and strenuously
advocated the rights Of our adopted citi-
zens, particularly an extension Of the right
ofsuffrase and equal protection in worship
ping God according to the dictates of con.
science-one who has net every sccff
at the Catholic religion, every ieer at
the Catholics as a class, with prompt vim
dication OF their char acter from the ohio.
guy cast upon them-one who, for his
zeal in vindicating the liberty ofconscience
has, time and again, been taunted by the
federal press Of this State with an undue
partially for the Roman Catholics! And
srhat has this been done for? Where is
the offence? where the ratification
Blu, we have been betrayed into trans
cending our prescribed limits already, and
must leave those who have wroneed US
to answer the above questions. We are
previously mistaken if they can reconcile
what they have done with their own cen
sciences, and with that high character for
liberality, intelligence, honor and love of
justice, which we have always accorfe |
to them. We fearlessly challenge the
most searching scrutiny by the Catholics
and all other seets and denominations, and
fear not the verdict Of public opinion where
our course is known. If we are to rest
under the ban Of any particular class, act
lng under adverse influences, we care not
SO long as we enjoy The smiles of an ap-
proving conscience and stand acquitted Of
the alleged wrong in the eye CT Heaven.
