WASHINGTON VS.. THE KNOW

Those midnight consplrators and pro-
scripiioulsts who term themselves Know
Nolbings very appropriately, FOR they
seem 10 be ignorant Of The history of the
country, often speak with pretended ven-
Grafton of the name ana principles Of tbe
illustrious WASHINGTON, than whom no
man was ever more opposed TO their ten.

his acts and writings show. The church>

WASHINGTON, as President, approved tho
law allowing them the right Of suffrage
in FIVE years. The conspiralors are in
fsvof ofa religious test for office, bui
EWAsuINGroN as President Of the Com
venlion Of the United States, signed his
name TO the instrument which expressly
forbids il. lie even went further than
that, and in an address 10 the Catholics
of the United States, written in Decem-
ber, 1851, acknowledges Their aid to
the cause Of American liberty ia the fol-
lowing language:
As mankind becomes more liberal,
they will be more apt TO allow, that all
those who conduct themselves as worthy
members Of The community are equally
entitled to the protection Of civil govern,
meni. lhope ever 10 see America among
the foremost natIons in examples of JUS
tice aud libe,aliiy. And presume that
your fellow citizens will no! forget the
patriotic part which you took in The ac,
cumplishmen, Of their resolution and the
establishment Of their government, or the
imporiqn, assistance which they received
from a nation 10 which the Roman Caih>
olic religion is professed.
l thar you gentlemen, for your kind
concern for me. While my life and my
health shall continue, in whatever siiua>
tion ! may be, il shall be my constant en>
deavor TO justify The favorable sentiments
you are pleased TO express OF my con-
duct. And may the members Of your
society in America, animated alone b"

conducting themselves as tho faithful
snbject Of our free government, enjoy
every temporal and spiritual felicity.
