THAT sAME OLD CATECHISM.

II
On the 9th of September, 1860, we
wrote and published in the STANDARD
"The Shortey Catechism on Negro
Equality" 1t then went the rounds,
and has been travelling over the land
ever since. 1t was credited to various
papers Two years ago it was published
in Portsmouth paper, and credited to
a Richmond Va, paper. We then re-
published it, August II, 1865, and
claimed it.
Last week it appeared as a communl-
cation in the Columbus Journal, with
one question and answer appended, to
adapt it to the present canvas, 1t Is
now again being copied into the papers
throughout the State, some crediting it
to the Journal. Ithas perhaps been read
by million of people during the past
seven years, and as most of it is appro-
pirate to the present issues, we will
again copy it, as it originally appeared
in the STANDARD, on the eth of Sep
tember, 1860:
