BILE comments of a Radical press
of a press which is nothing if it
is not intolerant. The same spirit
of intolerance, exists no where
else on the civilized earth. 1t is
confined almost entirely to the
Radicals of America and the semi
barbarous populations of the
Danubian principalities. Among
the latter, not only, is Judaism
Odious, but even Freemasonry is
prosecuted as furiously as it ever
was by Thadeus Stevens. Both
Masons and Hebrews are held to
be legitimate objects of persecu-
ton by these barbarous and bloody
zealots.
But, perhaps, the most fanati-
cal prosecutor of the Jews known
to recent times was, the Russian,
Muraweiff, who died, not long
since, in a lunatic asylum at Der.
lin. While Governor of Lithau,
MIA, thousands of Hebrews were
the victims ofhis fierce intolerance;
and yet-incredible asst may seem
while an inmate of the asylum
at Berlin, his most faithful atten
dant was a Jew. The administra
ton of this ruthless boyar can find
noparallelin the history ola "Chris
tan" people save in that which
records the administration Of
Ulysses Simpson Grant, and the
Odium of THAT administration
rests not upon the nation which
helplessly witnessed it, not upon
the Representatives who censured
it, not upon the Chief Magistrate
who rebuked it-but upon the
military chieftain who conceived
its measures-and put them into
remorselesS execution.

MoORE's LIFE OF Hon. SCHUY-
LER CoLFAX.-T. B. Peterson &
Brothers, No. 800 Chestnut street,
Philadelphia, have in press and
will publish in a few days, "The
Life of Hon. Schuyler Colfax,n
written by Rev. A. Y. Moore, Of
South Bend, Indiana, who was
for twelve years, as pastor and
friend, in the entire confidence of
Mr.. Colfax, and had access to the
files of the paper published by
Mr.. Colfax for twenty years, and
to the Congressional Globe; known
all his past history and all who
have known him from boyhood.
He began this biography two or
three years ago, so that it is not
one of the hurried and ephemeral
publications so common in cleo
ton years. Mr.. Moore is a gen
tleman of fine talent and culture,
and there is no doubt but that
his biography of Mr.. Colfax will
be worthy of its distinguished
subject.
The following letter from Mr..
Colfax, to Rev. A. Y. Moore will
explain itself -
"WAsHINGToN, D. c., May 80, '6S.
"My Dear Mr.. Moore =
GAS your prediction of a year
ago has been realized, | have no
further objection to your publish
ing any sketch, more or less full,
of my life, you may have prepared.
AS you were for a dozen years a
fellow-townsman of mine, and a
valued friend, I suppose you know
as much about my history as the
public would care about knowing;
and although my engrossing du-
ties here leave me no time to re-
wise the manuscript, | have no
fear that your work will not be a
faithful one.
"Yours,, very truly,
SCHUYLER CoLFAX.
''Rev. A. Y. Moore, South Bend,
Indiana"
1t will be published in a large
duodecimo volume of five hundred
pages, printed from large type,
and on the finest and best Of white
paper, with portrait, on steel, of
Mr.. Colfax, executed by Illman
Brothers, the well-known engra-
vers, as well as a profile bust, in
gilt, on the back, from photo
graphs taken of Mr.. Colfax within
the last week; the whole bound in
cloth in the most substantial man
ner. Price 81 90 a copy. Can
vassers ntedeverywhere. Large
discounts given. Copies viii be
sent to any one, at once, postpaid

"a War of Sects. "

ceased to fashion the expression
OF popular sentiment by artful and
persistent appeals to sectional
prejudices, has been driven in
sheer desperation to frantic ex-
pressiOns of sectarian intolerance.
Having forfeited every claim to
popular confidence and considera-
ton as an agency of political re-
form, and frenzied by the prospect
Of swift and hopeless humiliation
it turns furiously upon the very
elements which have hitherto
given it strength and determined
the measure of its politicalsuccess.
The spirit of intolerance was never
so strong in the Radical party as
at the very time in which it is
moved by the agonies of dissolu-
ton. Its ''ruling passion" is
"strong in DEATH"
Not content with the steady
maintenance of a policy which
recommends its principles by de-
manding the ceaseless utilization
of men who were formerly it's
most powerful supporters, the
Radical party true to it's heredita-
~ instinct, opens the Presidential
canvass with that reckless and
proscriptiye fury which only
ecclesiastical bitterness can i'm
part to political strife. The genius
of Colonial PuritaniSm has at last
escaped from the powerful grasp
ofpolitical expediency. The grim
theOcracy of that elder day still
breathes its desolating spirit upon
all that is noble in polity, beauti-
full i'll religion, or exquisite in life.
To break down, to uproot, to burn,
to Stay, to hew in pieces, to bind
with links of iron-and to do all
these things for ''the love of Godn
was the holy mission of the Puri-
tan Radical. A stern, forbidding,
gloomy, merciless religionist he
sought to create the world anew,
and to create it in the image of
himself.
No where, save in New England,
was this atrocious spirit made
manifest. The Roman Catholics
of Maryland, the Quakers Of
Pennsylvania, the EpiscopaIians
and Presbytelians of Virginia, the
Huguenots of the South, and the
Catholic Missionaries of the Far
West, have left no records of re-
hgious persecution; while in the
annals of the Puritan Colonies, we
find the name of but one conspic-
uous champion of federation. The
name of Roger Williams almost
redeems the darkest page in New
England history.
1t is not strange, in view Of
these facts, that Radicalism should
have originated in the land of the
Puritans. 1t was an evil hour for
this country when it passed its
native bounds. But to cling to
the arid breast of it's dam
was repugnant to its most impe-
rious instincts-to the instinct of
self-preservation, of aggression, of
acquisition; and driven forth
under impulses which it could not
resist, it has moved over the face
of the land like adevouring fame.
Wherever this spirit of Radical
ism has gone, it has infected the
Radical temper with fury some
times exceeding its own: moving
the strong and vehement by sym
pathy, the weak and wavering by
force, but developing in both the
same spirit of wild and sweeping
