THE REAL POSITION OF THE CATHOLIC
CHURCH is PERVERTED.

CHURCH is PERVERTED.
They in our Catholic Church, whether
priests or laymen, journalists or public
speakers, who take the ground actually
that slavery is an institution approved,
or at least not opposed by the Catholic
Church, give only scandal to intelligent
Catholics, and shock every we'll in
structed and conscientious Catholic
We have been deeply panied and morti-
fed at the position we have found the
great body of American Catholics, with
large portion of the venerable clergy
themselves, occupying in regard to the
question of negro slavery. Nota single
Catholic journal, except one, ventures to
assert openly and decidedly the true
Catholic doctrine in regard to slavery,
and the Catholic who does not throw all
his influence on the side Of the pro sla-
very party is read out of the pale of
Catholic Society, especially in this city
of New York, where there are more
Catholics than in all the seeded States
put together The Catholic who ventures
to arrai yn the institution of slavery on
even-moral and religious grounds, though
l--~l-~I -r:.4, -
ton of the church in all ages, and in all
countries but this, is at once suspected
of being shaky in his faith, and is de-
nounced as puritan or as " Yam
kee," the two most opprobrious eplthets
that can, in the estimate of our New
York Catholics, be applied to any man ;
and the promptness and zeal with which
they rall y to the disloyal peace party,
Ill fhaf THAR
sympathies are pro-slavery. We can
scarcely find Catholic descended from
an old American family, or even OF
American birth, that is not practically
pro slavery man in his talk and in his
influence. Why is it we find the mass
of our Catholics following Fernando
Wood. James Brooks, and the Able Nc
Master? Whence the intense hatred of
New England whose Catholieity is
really more fourishing than anywhere
else on this continent-which is the most
salient feature of our Catholic popula-
ton? Whence, indeed, but from the
conviction that New England is anti.
slavery, and in favor of negro emancipa-
ton. Go where we will in the loyal
States, and we find nearly every Catholic
we meet Southern sympathizer, an in
tense hater of the Abolitionist, and more
ready to see the Union divided, or re-
constructed, under jeff. Davis, on sla.
very as its corner stone, than to see it re.
stored by the extinction of slavery.
POSITION OF ARCHBISHOP HUGHES.
The Catholic organs have, it seems to
us, been very unwise and impolitie, and
our Catholic leaders have placed US in a
very unpleasant position. The know

JULY %, 1863.
The Catholic Church and Slavery.

We published in the Journal of Mon
day, an article from the Catholic Iele-
graph, Archbishop Purcelrs paper, which
conceded that Catholics participated, to
considerable extent, in the New York
riots, but claimed that they were deluded
by the demagogue leaders Of the Demo
cratic party, who, while they melted the
mob to acts of murder and arson, were
too scowardly to lead it and share its
dangers. The article in the Telegraph
naturally calls attention TO the position,
in politics, occupied by the great major
ity of the Catholics at the present day
That position, it is evident to every OBJ
server, is one of. most bitter antago-
nism to the Administration. So bitter
is that hostility, that the more ignorant
portions of the Church fail to perceive
the finely drawn distinctions between the
Government and the Administration,
made by their political leaders, who claim
to be supporting the one, while they are
denouncing and opposing the other-and
they place themselves in open opposition
to every measure adopted by the Ad-
Nministration for the suppression of the
rebellion. We say this applies to ma
iority of that Church. There are noble
exceptions-such men as Archbishop
Purcell, Bishop Rosecrans, Gen. Rose
Grams, and Mr. Brownson. PThese patriots
see the great danger the Church is in of
assuming an anti-patriotic attitude, in
obedience to the dictation of party lead
ers like Wood, Vallandigham and Voor-
hees-men without an atom Of principle,
and who would have no hesitation in de-
stroying the Republic if they could only
appear pre-eminently prominent amid its
ruins,-and they are putting forth manly
efforts to stop it in its misguided course.
That we have not mistaken or mis
stated the position of The great bulk ot
the members of the Catholic Church, po
litically, is evident by the following ex
acts from Brownson's ReUielo-a lead
ing Catholic periodical. We quote from
Mr.. Brownsons article quite extensively
that there may be no doubt as to tina
gentleman's views. We trust the article
will be read with careful attention.
After arguing that the negro is hu
man being, and that he cannot be re
duced to hereditary hondsman withou
sin against God and crime against hu
manity, Mr.. Brownson proceeds to prove
that

II is required Of each claimant to file
with his claim a specific statement or
declaration on the subject of his citizen

Investigation. The form prescribed for
those who wish to declare themselves,
un~equivocally, citizens Of the United
States, is as follows:

be entitled to all the privileges, and I'M

The claims of those who 30 acknowl-
edge themselves to be citizens Of the
United States will be first examined.
The exceptions to the rule in the case

will be decided as the respective cases
are reached.

tieAlookiDg to a restoration of the Union, it
is unquestionable that among the soldiers
there is an arrest desire th at the war should

with the Abolition schemes of Congress, And
that many of the soldiers who have been
