Mr. Elsdon takes to quoting Latin. One
would scarcely believe it, but it is SOL
emn fact. Imagine Mr. Elsdon using the
language Of the learned. There is a
funny side to this whole business, after
I'll. The chief merit of Mr. Elsdon's
second speech is its magnificent original
ity. 1t is the first time in the history of
of tour" country that the pope has been
charged with conspiring to overthrow
tour" government. He has never before
been accused Of entertaining Jesuitic de-
signs against "our" republic. Then,
again, the poor benighted Papists-Ro-
manists is better-are accused for the
first time with owing allegiance to for
country is called upon to rise up as one
man and fall violently against the pope
TO throw itself hard, as it were, against
against him.
This grafton makes Rev Mr. Elsdon a
man among a thousand. It places him
ON the pinnacle of fame. When an
avowed assailant of the Catholic church
can actually drum up something origi-
nal to charge, something that men of
in all justice give him all the credit and
honor he deserves.
But, after all, looking at the matter in
another light, am of the opinion that
the very originality of the grafton will
cause it to fall fat. You see, the aver
age run of people do not grasp at once
what is original. They are not accus-
toned to it. Originality, therefore, has
it, drawbacks. But then, we cannot
don should not worry. The honor of be-
ing original is enough for any man.
In my next article I will spend few
moments on things which Mr. Elsdon in
his innocence, called arguments.
