I'ditou:?1 will be obliged to you if you will allow me space in your paper to correct a few of the many glaring mistntement* made in an article, which appeared in your is?ue of August -1th, and headed "The Ms* cuhivciiom of ltoiu:uii-n>." what^'ei4, that menus. The writer evidently allows his feelings to overdo his facts, ami w ith a degree of unfairness,! might say coarseness, arraigns the Honiau \ atnoiic t nurch hctore the public nn<l makes it responsible for nearly all the evils of society. In the first place Koiiiau Catholics discard the word "Humanism," as used l>y the writer, for Koiuan Catholics, as a title of opprobium; and no writer will n-e it unless he desires to be vulgar and offensive. The suhjict matter which has aroused the writers indignation, seems to have been what lie calls "the recent controversy in Charleston over the Free School funds." The writer will be surprised to learn that no snob controversy is or has been in C harleston. The facts are simply these: ? The 1 Ionian Catholics of Charleston have a flourishing boys' school, containing over four hundred and fifty pupils. This school and its equipments are valued at not less than $'Ji),O0o.(r.). Add thi- to the salari< s of eight teachers, the cost of which has been met by the Catholics of the city." Besides this, they have other schools which they support at tlu ir own expense. The City l'uhlie Schools are full to overflowing. The 'imposition, therefore, was made to the City Commissioners of l'uhlie Schools to take the "Central School" with its | equipment and teachers, the latter it ' found rpiaiilied after tin* ositai rxaint-1 nation, and embrace this school in the 'City I'nhlic School System, to he under the same rules and regulations as the other City l'uhlie Schools. The proposition was agreed to by a vote of the Commission* rs of six for and two against its adoption. Is there anything vile or threatening in this action? The Catholics of the city number about one-third of the white population, and a large proportion of them are tax-payers. it is not unreasonable then that they should claim immunity from a double tax, if they could harnioni/.c these differences with the Hoard of Commissioners of tinCity l'uhlie Schools. Aj this matter pertains to the city, ami Li understood in Charleston, it would he well to leave the city to ntteud to if* own affairs. The writer ij somewhat unfortunat in his search after facts with which to aiiliiliilat" t!i?' vile Cif/7 >/i>, f <r whom lie lias neither com 10 iteration or love. He is not one of those who wonhl take aside his erring brother and kindly win him from his evil ways. We hn?l hoped ha would have looked for his facts nearer home, where we would have had a better opportunity of verifying them. In his seaedi he goes all the way to Koine,from tnehee 1 to Massachusetts, tlu-n to poor faminestricken Ireland, and finally haek to J New York. The writers logic is glaringly at fault, as his conclusions are no whero.fnmd in his premises. ' Such wild statements as HishdfX Lyncli'n oath to "persecute heretic- ' is utterly untrue. The Pbpo's control of real estate in Cincinnati is destitute of truth. The ns*erfV>ii of the "gentleman (who)sponta Wiulorin Umue, and was the guest of a near relative of Cardinal Antoiiclli, Papal S-eriJ tary of State," that "no Protestant I church was nlllowed in the I'upnl States," is false. The little pathetic story about the "pocket bible" las not a word of truth in it. lltindrid^ i of pocket bibles coil Id be obtained in 1 Homo during the reign of Pius IX. The udvico of the American r/? iryr. W tires invi.^t have been gratuitous, for no such American representative with the above title ovor resided in Home. The cruel incarceration of the husband and wife in "Another part of Italy" for holding a "prayer-meet* ing'' i-t nhiurd, and must have been invented for raising "funds for misaionary purposes." "The spirit of Home," he savs, "is the saiuo in this country as it is in Italy, and the same to-day it was during the inquisition of Spain." And he Illustrate* the above by an incident which he says, happened in Mas-a* [ chusctUs nut long since, where "a child : was scourged upon his naked hack by a Catholic Priest for attending a free puljlic school." Now, I challenge the 1 truth of this statement. I call upon him to give the* final decision of the case as decided by the courts. It is j unmanly to' malign a body of men that arc known and distinguished the world over for their benevolcnc<kand vharity. dn Massachusetts, to-day* 1 Catholic Priests are niendn rs in several localities of the Boards of Public , Schools. "Why," he asks, is there so mueli starvation in Ireland, a lloman Cathi olic country ?" 1 will beg to suhstij tute an answer for the one which the writer oilers : If this Unman Catholic j country, ft* ho calls it, had a Unman I Catholic government and Poman . i .. ' < v uiii<mic iii\\ < v > govern ir, i Men llie , I writer might taunt it with his gratui, ton- insults; hut when its government j is nut its own, hut is forced upon it j hy might ; when confiscation ami | tyranny have wn -tied from that uuj happy oouutiylur broad acres and I her homesteads, and given them to her enemies to use or abuse a* thev may s"e lit, it i* hardly fair to hold the Iri-h priesthood responsible for her wretched and starving eonditioii. The line of argument which the I writ'-r follows, and the -tyh of writing t which he adopts, will fail to accomplish tin ir end. This country, ami especially South Carolina, has made | rapid progre-* in intellectual advancei nient within the la -1 twenty live yea iv. i l'lie <.1?1 and hackneyed calumnies I against the ('ntholie ( hureh are all- \\cd to repose in their musty recesses, j and are rarely repeated, because they are received with disgust hv a mote intelligent and enlightened people. I will assure the writer that in his sellll t rmni .1 it urn', iiv* i- ui iii> danger Iroin ! ilu? I* ???*?. Muri'iivi-r tin- Catholics < )' I!il- State are low in numbers and w ill never be utile to realize the writer's I liars, viz: to wrest the government of South Carolina from its lawful authorii v and hand it over into the Pope's : possession ! The writer is loud in his i note of warning against an unofFend! ing few. Can he point to one solitary 1 inlaiiec within'the borders of South j Carolina in which a lfnnan Catholic has failed to perfirrn all the duties of a good citizen ? lli religion, however hateful it may he to the higot, d<Ks not disfranchise him. 'I he writer is under a misapprehension that this i? a i'rote-tant country. 1' is n > siieh | thiftg. The State ai d Halted State' guarantee to t vt ry one alil.e, religious liberty. No one therefore, not even ; the writer, has tha, right to arraign ( the < 'atholie before. t!

Intolerance is t!i" bane of i which the writer c omplains, yet he himself has no tolerance for his ('athletic fellow citizen. I never will he | licve that the intolerant views of the writer are endorsed hy a generous ; people, nor will I allow thve views to go forth unquestioned to tarnish the > fair fame of old Lnncastf r. ]).
