The Portland daily press., 1871-01-23

To the Editor of the Press:
From two opposite quarters efforts are being
made to transform our government into a
hierarchy. The Roman Catholics wi b to have
government administered in the Interests Of
tue Pope; " bile some OF the more ultra Prot
estants are unconsciousy working for an anal.
agons object through the common schools; and
the project recently revived OF having for NAL
recognition of the Supreme Being asserted in
the constitution. 1t needs no argument to
show how foreign to the spirit of our insttu-
tons anything of this kind is. II will be an
evil day for this country when secular authori-
ty, goes out OF its proper sphere to NEEDLE in
m alters of religion. We have had so little re-.
cent experience in this country of the evils
springing from this cause, that we are in dan
ger OF being too little impressed with the les
sous of history in this respect. That there is
no occasion for recognizing the Supreme Be-
ing in the constitution, ought TO be sufficient
argument against doing it. True religion has
nothing to fear in the tree air of the nineteenth
century. Infdelity cannot be snuffsd out BY
constitutional amendment. 1t would be
purely gratuitous departure of government
from its legitimate business. Though few will
deny this, it is not SO certain that the too easy,
Indifferent public will be on the alert to resi.t
the first approaches to a hierarchy. There is
one way, and only one, in which the Supreme
Being may with propriety be recognized in the
constitution, and that is by having it within
its legitimate scope embody those eternal prin-
ciples of justice and benefcence which are the
foundation of His throne, and of which Re is
believed 10 be the impersonation. This is rec
ognition enough. 1t is not the principles
which governments profess which make them
Christian. 1t is those which inspire their ac-

The Machias Republican INDUCES in the
following criticism Of its former editor and
his political views:
The idea of party formed from Demo-
Gratis and disaffected Republicans being any,
thing but Democratic party is SIMPLY alb
surd. Was the Democratic party, with the
addition Of the straight Wings, anything but
Democratic party? Would the election of
Gen. Chamberlain last tall, with the addition
OF some thousands of disafected Republicans,
have been ANYTHING but Democratic victory |?
Would the election of Mr.. Pike to Congress
in this district over Mr.. Hale by the Demo-
Gratis, by the aid of few hundred Republican
votes, been anything but Democratic vic
tory? No, Mr.. Talbot, the Government of
this State or this nation must be Republican
or Democratic. 1t must either carry forward
and strengthen the great principles OF civil
liberty which 1t has secured, or yield to those
who fought against them before, and during
the war, and since, and ale as unchanged as
an Ethiopian or leopard. In our estima-
ton Mr.. Talbot wants to kill the goose that
laid the golden egg.
