been pronounced too severe on a race that has
material success in every quarter Of the
globe.
Well. we never imae ined that we should please
every body. Truth is often unpalatahle. The false
theories and corrupt ideas Of modern times-she
prolific source of innumerable evils-are based on
the pseudo-philosophy that material and physical
wtll-being constitute mans ''summum bonum'-a
philosophy which excludes mans spirituality. aud
reduces him to a mere machine, having 10 higher
destiny than produc.icn and consumption.
This doctrine is essentially Pagan, and diametri-
cally opposed to that which gave life and stability
to the Christian civilization of which we are justly
proud. 1t is not astonishing however that those who
are continually endeavoring to divorce human acti-
witty from morality and religion, should give their al
hesion to this congenial theory; nor are we At all
surprised to find them in sympathy with a race that
figures as the embodiment Of materialism.

morning sun round the earth but it is attended by
the tap Of The Anglo-Saxon drum, whose dread
echo is the groan of suffering humanity t~estifying
to the millions Of human lives sacrificed to its vora-

sphers have been laid under contributions in order
to swell the profits Of Auglo-saxon shopkcepe,s;
but what nation, tribe or tongue, has been redeemed
from barbarism or converted to Christianity by
proud Anglo-Saxonism7
The Anglo-saxon sends Missionaries to the utter

lover of the Anglo-saxon race to open the map OF
the world, and trace il from the Andes to the Indus
from Spitzbergen TO Patagonia, and then point out
to us one solitary region that has been civilized or
christianized by Anglo-Saxonism. Per contra, we

Are these charges over,rawn ? BY no means. A
lew years ago, the accredited English minister to
Spain was detected in a political intrigue of which
the object was to infame the minds of the popnlace
against the Government; and for his part in the plot,
the representative Of royalty was ignominiously ex-
