Archbishop Manning and the London Times.
4 The London Times having criticized GER
tain expressions of the Archbishop of
Westminster, he answers as follows, in that
z5ournal:
You quote as my words that Catholics
Fs cannot identify themselves very closely
with q State which admits all creeds and
all forms of worship on the same level"
Nor can they be sin sympathy with a state
(which encourages secular education" My
words were:
I" How can Catholics, who believe that the

Are equalf It is impossible. How can
Catholics who believe that one faith carries
With it by necessity unity Of worship, regard IIl
forms Of worship. are put upon the same levelf
How can Catholics, who believe that there
Should be no education which is not based on
he revelation of God. be in sympathy with a
tate of things in which secular instruction is

You will perceive sir, that spoke of the
8 condition of our present party politics,
And in no sense of the British Monarchy.
Your next misrepresentation, as 1 must
all it, is far more serious. You say:
: If CATHOLICISM kS EOpery, anu fOpcTyJ AS
pr. Manning avows, is Ultramentanism, and
characterization is allegiance to a foreign Sow
reign, there could hardly be worse recon-
pendation of q Catholic league in English

BPS speech"
# Sir, these admissions are not repeated in

NY speech. They are not to be found
bven in the garbled account from which

Alse in law and in fact, as Sir George Bow
Ter, in his able letter, has already shown.

he could not be mine.
What /. did say here give in tho words

outside of that circle, outside of what may
