A telegram from Europe of the 17 tb, states
that tha Diet of Sweden hae passed a law
admitting dissenters and Jewa to political*
right*, and that the Xing signed tha law
immediately. Veiyr eoon religion tolgra>
tion will pervade all the htaftt?ha ofEu

or later bj the e**?r*ac? of Church and.
State.
Slate religioua establishments hare been
the curse of mankind, since the world .began.
Pagan or Christian, so-called, fpr we
cannot believe there is any pure Christianity
in that limb of a church thai ia chained
to a civil or military government of uninspired
rulers. Intolerance or violation of
the right* of conscience in some form, and
persecution have been the iova-iable
fruits Of each adulterous connexions, and efer
will be, in the nature of tbtngai This
fact has been illustrated by (he Romish
Church that has allied herself toall kind* of
gotrof'nitents and need the sword of cruel
tyrant* and fanatics to propagate our creed
or to defend it from assaults and to sustain
power Such, too, has been more or tew
the spirit of the Protestant demoninatione
that hare married themselves to tings, f>otentatea,
or powers of oad hind.
We l>oaat of religion* liberty in the Unl,

constitutions and law* are concerned; but
even in this country there iaa con*1 ant ten.,
dency of tome of ibe reels to ally themselves
with the government, and to eontrol and be
controlled by it The Methodist Church
North has been for some years an illustration.
In their General Conference and other
depositories of power and influrnee, they
have suggested political measurer and been
governed in turn by the measures of the
government or dominant political party of
the country. The love of power is-afctoral

ment or doctrines thej profess have ? prlnciple
or hook in any part well fitted to connect
with a'wurldly power, they trill seek
the connection in some form, hence the politico-eccleriatical
acts and legislation of
more than one denomination in the
United Statea during the war and since, and
even prior thereto. Bnt there is a good deal
of the spirit of intolerance and a hostility
to religions liberty perhaps, in every part
of the United States, and this, too, in the
minds of many men who do net themselves
know of what manner of spirit they are ;
they are ready to denounce every and any
body that presumes in their hearing to advocate
his favorite or peculiar religiousopin.
ions, unless they correspond with those they
may approve from prejudice or education,
are very apt to show anger if a religicue discussion
is carried on bofore them ; at the
same time they are emphatic in prpolaitotug
their charity (oh, much abused worafl for
all denomination*; their charity woula seal |
the mouth of ev-ery minister or private j
Christian from ever advocating nay <Jialine>
lire doctrine of his Church or denomination
before any body but those already of the I
same way of thinking, but these same very j
charitable men are apt to be exceedingly
tolerant of the discussions of infidels ana
scoffers.
The State M llitla to be Organised.
The Columbia correspondent of the Charleston
AVmw furnishes the annexed statement
as coming from Governor Scott, at a chance
meeting of the former with the latter:
" The GcTcrnor was asked if there was any
truth in the report that State arms were being
distributed throughout the counties, lie replied
that arms had been sent to only one or
two places?York County was mentioned a?
one?where the 4 KuKlux ' or some secret organization
had Lecn mal treating Republicans,
bcatine them and dcstrovinir Ihetr
" To tbe question whether arms would be
generally distributed previous to tbe time of
holding the general election next fall, bo re*
plied that tbe Legislature had pawed an aot
providing for the organisation of the militia
of the State ; and as it was his duty to carry
out tbe provisions of tbe act, he intended to
see them executed as quickly as possible. Ho
wished to see tbe militia organized nnder men
who could be trusted to preserve order in tbeir
districts at any and at all times, whether tbe
disturbers of the peace were Democrats or Republicans
; he desired to see all classes in the
militia, and it made no difference to him wheth-'
er a Confederate or 'Federal commanded them '
in fact, it never occurred to him to ask such s
question ; all he wished to know was, ' would
be obey and cxeente tbe law.' The Oovernor
montioncd one or two Confederate officers i
whom ba bad either entrusted or intended en*
trusting with militia commands.
" In response to the interrogatory; Would
nut tbe arming of the militia and tbeir presence
at the elections tend to provoke a disturbance
and canae bloodshed ? be answered that
he thought not; (bat tbe knowledge that tkcre
was a force adequate to check all disturbances
would deter the evil-minded men in any community
from commencing or instigating a disturbance.
' But now let me tell yon, sir,' said
he, ' you may fast assured that after tbe next
election the Republican party will never go
before Congross stating that its voters wore
intimidated or prevented from voted by Democrats,
KuKlux or any organization whatever.
Tbe Republicans want to have peace and or*
dor during the next election, and If possible
they will have it. If the Democrats Can beat
as fairly wa will submit; hnt we will not be
driven from tbe Stake, aa some propose. We
from the North have eome hen to Stay, and
intend to do so. If the Democrats choose to
practice their old tricks of murder and tantim- |
idatton, the result will be terrible to them und
to the State.'" . ; . /

Btrango Vindication of Character.
A man known as Kit Ttimwe in N?w
Toik, and famous-as the keeper of a dog
pit, after allowing religious services
about his premises by pious persons bent j
en converting him and his vielous associates,
was casually visited the other day by a reporter
of the Htrald, who found Krr reciting
hi* grievances to a small squad of listeners.
He swid he had bsen robbed by an
attache* of the ohurch next deer, (meaning
an assembly at another dog pit aext to bis,
where religious servioes had been aieo harried
on,) had been called an ignorant dog
tighter by some of the papers, And all for
why 1 Because suns one said he was converted.

The Pope on Religious Liberty.
The London Catholic Mirror gives an so
connt of a conversation of the Pope with the
American bishops now in Rome, in which
he said,referring to religious liberty, that
in view of the iact that hi* Church was es
tabiishsd by the Lord as the ark of safety
and salvation, religions liberty could not be
| recognised in principle, sinoe all were bound
I to her, believe and obey Ood, but it might .
become a social necessity from the diversity
of seels, as in the United States, where the ]
unuren (meaning hia of courts) is left frea '
wiib the rest Thus the principle of relict 1
ous liberty ia held wrong by the bend of the
Roman Catholic Church, and only to be '
yielded from neeeaeity. Tliiaia no new dee '
trim- with that Church. It confirms all 1
that ia charged by the oppoaera of Roman- '
ism aato the inherent intolerance of that '
Church, wherever and whenever ia any f
country they have the aumerieal strength
and power to proscribe other forme of Chrio .
tian worship. The Pope carties out his '
principle of suppressing all other Chnrehea
at Rome. Mo Protestant ehorch ia allowed ?
to exist in Lire papal dominions.

what Ibe Home Intended it ahould be, feet
in their seal and exaitemanb had overreached

briefly as possible, tome of the OoaeS (hat
have produced the neneesity far this bill:
It ia almost a universal practice of railroads
and steamboat agents in tble Stale,
to eell to celorhd people flvbt eleae tickets,
and titan the captain of the boat, or the
oonduetor, will consign theip to a seat to the
smoke box or with'the cattle, and ft la impossible
for any decent, respectable colored
citlren. wife or luwrkUr to
exposed to oil Vho uSeeeec and vulgar lw?
guage or insults that any ruffian may choose
to offVr them in those placet. How all decent
oiliaena ahonld be prelected la their
morale and good behaviour, regardleaa of
their color, and no railroad company ahonld
be allowed to obarge a colored citizen for
a flrct claw ticket and thea force him to a
aeeond claw aeaU or any aeat he oan get,
simply on account of his color.
Another discrimination complained of 1a'
that ia many sounties county com miss toners
and incorporated towns refuse to grant license
to a colored citisen to foQow a business
where, according to their laws, a license ia required.
N? sane nsa can for a moment expect
a people wno possesses so dominant a ,
power In this government to submit to these
unjust discriminations when they hare B In
their power to puoish the offenders: and until
these discriminations cease, before toe law and
la the courts, we can neVer have a harmonious
and prosperous government.
It ia now probable that both 0oases will rescind
the resolution to edjowru on the first of
