ITALIAN L,gERTY--lk DOUGLAS
CATIf0laCs
Hc ;s M American who docs not Eympa-
.;.o with tho movement Of the Italians for
[.rccr degree Of political liberty. We care
mt what mans religion may be, OF what
h;s obiec,iops to the form Of monarchical gov
srnment which tho Italian patriots are en-
deayorine 10 establish. His religious faith
and Lis theorelical+ notions Of divine right
have no business In \ casa like that before us
10 influence his action OF prejudice lis judg'
mcnt to such an extent that when aid ia asked
for the cause Of Tie Liberals, he will button
bis pocket and turn coldly away. The mission
Of Garibaldi is one Of humanity and ultimate
" Of Republicanisu,, and if the foundat lions
which upderlie our political institusions ore
sound, it deserves the support tofevery AmeF'-
can and patriot
It is we'll known that an effort is being |
made by the Popish clergy in the United
States 10 direct the sympalhes Of the AtneFi-
can people in opposition to the cause Of Italian
liberty, 10 ept of the contributions which
may be madJ Z the equipment Of Republican
armies for fighting Italian battles and 10 seno
to the co1f.rs Of the Pope tue sums which
ought to go for Tie spread OF human freedom.
They work assiduously to this end; and, VIC
are compelled to say, with no inconslderable
success. The necessary connection IN our
politics between American Latter-Day Demo-
cracy mud the Catholic Church (co-partners in
the defence Of despotism) is 80 intimate, that
: the servants Of the Hierarchy may manipulate
the abettors Of Slavery as they will; and we
hare no doubt that an examination Of the lists
oe those who have contributed money tpr the
extension and pezpetua.. ion. .of: the power Of
that Old Hum ug; the Pope, and the junior
butcher, King Bomba The younger; would dis
closc tho fact tim: Of tue Democratic politicians
Of The couurg few lavc been able: to resist
the threats aud opportunities Of the Popish
clergy-ttat their names with greater m less
sums appended, arc to be found recorded as
in;mical to the establishment Of popular
sovereignty in Naly. We have tbs best 0!
reasons for believing that the cofsre Of Judge
Douglas have been invaded, and that d sum
which the cause Ct freedom might have asked
in vain las been given thercffom, that the
despotism Of the Pope md the tyranny ol
Bo,nba might be kept upon the necks of their
unwilling aud rebellious subjects. We
state the :acs, not out Of i'll will to our sena'
tor: because his notions Of civil liberty aud
religious duty are his OWL; and he hns 1be
same right to emphasize them in Italian al
fairs as he had in American politics when ut
said THAT he ''did not care whether Slavery
was voted up OF voted down." but regarding
this Italian question as q atouchstone by which
all mems professions to the popular cans'
may be tested, ne point out to the people
the Northwest the fact that the pocket OF on
Senator has been made to feel the cost {
pri :stly and despo1ic rule in the Old World.
Rumor will have it that this money was tn
more confidently asked for because Of tn
Senator's relation to the Catholic G lurch-
relation which in fact amounts on his part
unlimited submission to the spiritual mud ten
poral authority Of tho wicked woman Of Bah.
