kubespierre, Marat, Santerre, PetlOn,
Camille Des Moulins, were but the pre-
cursors of Renan and his c0nfreres and the
commune of to-day, and, thanks to their
organs, we connOt remain ignorant that
their aim is the same, to put down religion
at all hazards. In the Gazette des Frances
Mac0ns, for the 18th December, 1866,
read 1.-THE Freemasons who are Deists
are above all religious divisions. 1t is not
enough alone that we place ourselves
above different religions. We must be
above all faith in God whatever" And this
declaration goes forward from the German
Freemasons unchallenged to the world,
though, not to startle the great mass, q
semblance of faith is kept up, and distinct
rite is sanctioned by them for baptism,
