Mr.. Douglas replied in speech, containing
declarations of opinion which, whatever the
result Of his present movement must forever
prevent the South from placing full trust in
his orthodoxy.

In another part Of the same speech, Mr..
Douglas admits the power Of Congress 70 pro-
hibit Slavery in the Territories and determine
other questions affecting the interests Of the
People; from which it would appear that he
rests his policy concerning the self government
Of 81 Territory, not on any constitutional ground,
but on more expediency. Nor does he admit
the Southern argument, that the exclusion Of
slaves from Territory is any violation Of the
rights Of property.

Of Church Of Englandism was theoretically
supported in the House Of Peers we fear not
from pure but from interested motives The
case stood thus: When the property of the
Church was confscated at the reformation, the
plumber was transferred to laymen, who got
possession Of abbey and priory lands and the
controversy under the Stuarts was most mater
ally affected by that fact; for, had Popery been
re-establshed, those estates would have been
assuredIy restored to the Church. The confis-
cation had also given 10 laymen appropriated
titles and the right Of presentation to church
livings, 10 such an extent, that out of about
10000 cures Of souls, lsymen had the right to
nominate incumbents to 6,400 of such bone-
fees, or to sell the advowsons. By this patron
age they provided, and still provide, for younger
sons, and for such Of their daughters az marry
clergymen. Now, one Of the aristocratic OBJ
jects Of the revolution was to effect final set
clement Of all disputes which had festered since
the reformation, down 10 the expulsion Of James
ii. The laymen said 10 the priests, let there
be no more altercstions about our titles 10 the
old Church property, and We will guaranty by
our votes in Parliament whatever remains 10
Church of Englandism, the Act of Uniformity,
and your undoubted supremacy over all denomi-
nations of Dissenters. Thus was formed bond
Of amity between the landowners and the es
tablished clergy, which constituted and ce-
meuted the alliance between Church and State
reconciling politically the worship Of God with
the worship Of mammon.
In this reign the Crown lands, or at least the
great bulk Of them, were granted away TO in
dividuals absolutely or leased for very long
terms At nominal rents, by which means the
sristocrscy were inordinately enriched. OF the
gigantic nature Of these operations Il may be
well 10 give specimen. In 1895 King VIII
