The Curses of Europe.
Most of Europe especially the Catholic portion, is
demoralized. Jesutism, Fourierlsm, fanaIclsm OF
all kinds, have made il moral chaos. Common
sense is confined to small minority. All the rest are
distracted by extremes either of superstition or iuti
deity, despotism or anarchy All these mIschieis
seem to flow from three sources arisocracy, nnahce
and Jesuitsm Either Is sufficient 10 aunIhila'e The
rights ard blast the hopes of mankind. All, opera
ting together have converted all Europe into Pande-
monium. This Greek word signifies All The Derts or
Place Of al the DsUiLS. Landed arlstocracy and IL
nance rule England; arisocracy and Jesuitism starve
Ireland JesuIiism and finance keep France In fer
mentatiVn and all three distract Germany Italy and
Spain And all three have defeated, thus far, the
hopes of those who less than two years ago. expect
ed Europes speedy emancipation.
Of Jesuitism shall not attempt an enlarged ac-
count The history of this extraordinary institution
has been written by several able hands, and its prln-
ciples and practices have been fully exposed. But
notwithstanding these exposures, and the abolition of
the society and banishment of its members, by der-
ent governments various times, within the last two
centuries and half, it is probably now more extern
sive and active especially for mischief, than ever. Ii

alarm the Emperor Charles v, expelled from Ven

Bohemia in 1766, from Spain, Naples, and several
other States of Italy in 176S, and finally suppressed

United States. 1t has been probably instrument
tai than any thing else, in fomentlng disorders and
reaction in France since the expulsion Of Louis Phil

famous French attack on Rome, however unconscious
Of It's influence may have been Louis Napoleon and
his ellowpuppets. It's great object is entire control
of the human mIHd through school, church and gov
ernment To reach its end it has no scruples about
means and therefore corrupts improves, according
to careful calculation Of results 1t has been espe
cally careful TO preach in6deIy and anarchy among
European republicans, for the purpose of killing them
Off at the proper time, with the cries OF Inhdety and
an1rchy.
Of landed aristocracy we need not say much. The
revolution of 1889 eecualIy killed it in France, and
no government has been able TO lay ITS founda-
iios. II has been greatly impaired in Spain, esPeci-
ally By that great stroke of sound and vituous policy
the confscatIon of the church lands But it still ex-
lists in ali Germany, though the late revolutions have
shaken it in some degree. Feuda membranes and
exactions have been abolished In most of the German
States But this has not subdvided the evil, as IN
France. But in Hungary where alone the spirit OF
reformation has been thorough and honest, without
being wild and impractcable, not only have all endal
distinctions been abolished but the andess peasant
ry have been endowed with land The mobiles not only
relinqushed their privileges, but gaze aoey large
quantities of land in absolute tenure, thus raising the
peasarry q level with themselves free, indepen-
den. landhoders. The Hungerlans n0lO resemble our
revolutionary generation; land owning cutIvators,
led by well educated leaders in field and council.
Such people must succeed for history shows no case
In which such people have been finally conquered
on their own soil. To Italy, the first step
necessary is the cOnscaton of all church lands, and
their distribution among the cultivating peasantry
A third great evil of Europe is finance Every gov
ernmenl is in debt and these enormous debts create
class who produce nothing, but largely absorb the
profits of all others, and who interested IN sus
tanning existing abuses. "Stocks Stocks :" is tlciI
continual cry; and as stocks the work OF expen-
monarchies, of they interested IN sus
tanning royalty. In France England, Germany, they

Bourgeotsie Hungary is without them; and hence
comes in slight degree, the high and honest tone
of Hungarian patriotism. Reputation shocks the
moral sense of every honest community Public debt:

These are the three principal curses of Europe th'
sources whence flow all the subordinate evils which
defeat The hopes of republicans. The ignorant among
the latter. Witnessing extreme evils, the growth
