The following brilliant passage on Vol

croft's History Of the United States -
"On the side of modern life, pushing
free inquiry to the utmost contempt of
restraint, though not to total un5elief.
Voltaire employed his peerless wit and
activity The Puritans of New Eng
land changed their hemispheres to cs-
cape from bishops, and hated prelacy
with the rancor of faction Voltairc wa
gcd the same warfare with widely diff
forcnt weapons. and, writing history as a
partisan, made the annals of his race a
continuous sarcasm against the hierarchy
of the Roman Catholic Church. His
power reached through Europe he
spoke to the frec-thinkcrs throughout
the cultivated world. In the age of
scepticlsm he was the prince of scoffgrs
when philosophy lowered round saloons,
he excellcd in rejecting brilliantly the Ii
centious mind Of the intelligent aristoc-
racy. His great works were written in
retirement, but he was himself the spoil
cd child of society. lie summed himself
in its light and dazzlcd it by conccntra-
ting its rays. lie was its IDOL and he
courted its idolatry. Far from break
ing with authority, he loved the people
as little as he loved the Sorbonne. The
complaisant courtier of sovercigns and
ministers, he could even stand and wait
for smiles at the toilet of the French
Kings mistress, or PROSTATE himself in
flattcry before the Semarians of the
North willing to shut his eyes on the
sorrows of the masses, if the great would
but favor men of letters lie it was
and not an English poet, that praised
George l. of England as a sage and he
ro who ruled the universe by his virtues;
he could address Louis XIV MS a Trojan
and when the French King took pros
titutc for his associate, it was the aged
Noltairc who extolled the monarch;
mistress as an adorable Egeria. The
populace which has its hands to live by,
such are the words and such the senti
mcnts of Noltaire, and, as he believed
of every landholder, the people has ne
thcr time nor capacity for self-instruc
ton they would die of hunger before
becoming philosophers. 1t seems to me
essential that there should be ignorant
poor. Preach virtue to the lower class.
