    Ft7 Reference to the Roman Constitution must not be understood in the american sense, as being a written constitution. The Roman Constitution was, as is the British, merely a system of precedents and unwritten rules of long-established usage.

This is so among the Hindus of India, even to this day. “ The most sacred and the most universally used — even to the present day — of all Vedic prayers is that composed in the Gayatri meter, and thence called Gayatri, or , as addressed to the vivifying Sun-god, Savitri : ‘Let us meditate on that excellent glory of the Divine vivifier; may he enlighten our understanding.” “Turning toward the Eastern sky, he repeats the Gayatri or Savitri...

    This prayer is the most sacred of all Vedic utterances, and like the Lord’s prayer among Christians,... must always among Hindus take precedence of all other forms of supplication. The next division of the service is called Upasthana (or Mitro-pasthana) because the worshiper abandons his sitting posture, stands erect with his face toward the rising sun, and invokes that luminary under the name of Mitra. The prayer he now repeats is Rig-veda 3, 59, of which the first verse is to the following effect : “‘Mitra, raising his voice, calls men to activity.

    Mitra, sustains the earth and the sky.

    Mitra, with unwaking eye, beholds call creatures.

    Offer to Mitra the oblation of butter!’ The use of this hymn is the morning service of every Hindu.” — “ Religious Thought and Life in India.” chap 1 last par., and chap. 15, par., 41, 57. Sun worship, with that of the other heavenly bodies, continued till the rise of Mahomet. The father of Mahomet, when a boy, was devoted as a sacrifice to the sun, but fortunately was ransomed. (See Gibbon,” Decline and Fall,” Chap. 1, par 9.) It was from the horrors of sun- worship that Mahomet turned Arabia. “Classical Dictionary,” article “Hercules.” The obelisk, or Cleopatra’s Needle, brought from Egypt and now standing in Central Park, New York City, is one of these stone sunimages.

With such a system as this for a basis, it is logical enough that the Catholic Church should forbid the common people to read the Scriptures. For Origen is one of the chiefest fathers of the Catholic Church ; and “from the days of Origen to those of Chrysostom, there was not a single eminent commentator who did not borrow largely from the works of” Origen. “He was the chief teacher of even the most orthodox of the Western Fathers.” — Farar’s “History of Interpretation,” last paragraph under “Origen.” Id., Century 2, part 2, chap. 1, par. 12, Murdock’s translation.

Rurl tames positi agrorum culture libere licenterque inserviant, quoniam frequenter evenlt, ut non aptius alio die furmenta sulcis aut vinea scrobibus mandentur, ne occasione momental pereat commodiatas coelestil provisions concessa.” ft275a “Commentary on the Psalms, 92, quoted in Cox’s Sabbath Literature,” Vol. 1, p. 361, and in the “Sabbath Manual,” by Justin Edwards, pp. 125-127. ft276a “oration in Praise of Constantine,” chap. 3. ft277a Id. The reader may more fully understand this by reference to the illustration, opposite page 507 of this book. There at the upper lefthand corner of the picture can be seen the sun in his chariot driving four horses. It is evidence that in this picture which the bishop has drawn of the emperor, he was playing upon the sun-worshiping sentiments of the “bishop of externals.” ft278a Id. chap. 2. ft279a “History of the Christians Religion and Church,” Vol. 2.

This was not an assembly of the Christian Church; It was not the Christian Church that united with the State. This was an assembly of the Catholic Church; it was the Catholic Church that formed the union with the State. The history of “the church” is not the history of Christianity. The history of Christianity has not been written except by the rack, by sword, and by flame; in tears, in sufferings, and in blood, — and in the books that shall be opened at the last day. Faithfulness to the authors whom quote will oblige me in a few instances to copy this misapplication of the word “Christian.” But the reader will need merely to note the connection to see that the word is sadly misused, and this note will be the assurance in every such case that 1 do not indorse the use of the word in any such connection.

It was good cause that it was so rejected; for even before the death of Charles I, the Presbyterian Parliament had dealt “the fiercest blow at religious freedom which it had ever received.” “An Ordinance for the Suppression of Blasphemies and Heresies, ‘which Vane and Cromwell had long held at bay, was passed by triumphant majorities. Any man, ran this terrible statute, denying the doctrine of the Trinity or of the divinity of Christ, or that the books of the Scripture are the ‘word of God,’ or the resurrection of the body, or a future day of judgment, and refusing on trial to abjure his hereby, ‘shall suffer the pain of death.’

    Any man dealing (among a long list of other errors) ‘that man by nature hath free will to turn to God,’ that there is a purgatory, that images are lawful that infant baptism is unlawful ; any one denying the obligation of observing the Lord’s day, or asserting ‘that the church government by presbytery is anti-Christian or unlawful,’ shall, on refusal to renounce his errors, ‘be commanded to prison,’“ — Larger History of England,” book 7, chap. 10, par. 11.

Under the year 1649, Hildreth gives the copy of a law embodying the provisions cited above, with other important points.

It runs thus: “‘Although no human power be lord over the faith and consciences of men, yet because such as bring in damnable heresies, tending to the subversion of the Christian faith and destruction of the souls of men, ought duly to be restrained from such notorious impieties,’ therefore ‘any Christian within this jurisdiction who shall go about to subvert or destroy the Christian faith or religion by broaching and maintaining any damnable heresies, as denying the immortality of the soul, or resurrection of the body, or any sin to be repented of in the regenerate, or any evil done by the outward man to be accounted sin, or denying that Christ gave himself a ransom for our sins, or shall affirm that we are not justified by his death and righteousness, but by the perfection of our own works or shall deny the morality of the fourth commandment, or shall openly condemn or oppose the baptizing of infants, or shall purposely depart the congregation at the administration of the ordinance, or shall deny the ordinance of magistracy, or their lawful authority to make war, or to punish the outward breaches of the first table, or shall endeavor to seduce other to any of the errors and heresies above mentioned; ‘ — any such were liable to banishment.’ — History of the United States,” Vol. 4, chap. 12, par. 1, 2.

In lending his name and influence to this Association, Mr. Street seems to have forgotten the experiences of his denominational ancestors in New England under a government with which that which is now proposed by this Association is identical.

There is an accommodated sense in which the word “morality “ is used with reference only to men’s relations to their fellow-men ; and with reference to this view of morality, it is sometimes said that the civil power is to enforce morality upon a civil basis. But morality on a civil basis is only civility , and the enforcement of morality upon a civil basis is the enforcement of civility, and nothing else. When such is the meaning, in the use of the term “morality,” we may agree with all that is said of it, but never can consent to call it morality “Morality” is infinitely a deeper and a broader term than is the term “civility.” The field of morality is much wider than that of civility, and in fact is essentially distinct from it; and this clear distinction should always be recognized and maintained. Again; the term “morality” has become, to a considerable exility, but a sort of sentimental, theoretical something that each theorist may have framed for himself, meaning much more than civility and infinitely less than morality But such usage is wrong. it comes down to our time from the time when the papacy was supreme, and when accordingly there was utter confusion of all things pertaining to the Church and to the State, of the civil and the religious; when, in short, everything was held to be moral, according to the papal idea of morality. And everybody who has looked into the history of those times, knows full well that under the papal dominion and in the papal system, there never was any such thing as either morality or civility. See Symmachus, this book; and Pope Gelasius 1, A.D, 492 496, expressed it to the emperor Anastasius thus: “There are two powers who rule the world, the imperial and the pontifical. You are sovereign of the human race, but you bow your neck to those who preside over things divine. The priesthood is the greater of the two powers; it has to render an account in the last day for the acts of kings.” — milman’s History of latin Christianity,” book 3 chap 1 par 30. Let not the reader think that because this was spoken so long ago, it is now out of date; for that Association has ever since been advertising and selling this speech as representative National Reform Literature, and unless the edition is exhausted , the pamphlet in which it is contained can be had by sending twenty five cents to the Christian statesman, 1520 Chestnut street, Philadelphia, PA. While this chapter is being made up into pages, there comes the Christian statesman it May 28, 1891, giving an account of how “the Protestants and Roman Catholics united” at a recent election of the School Board of New Haven Conn., and secured the election of men who favored the restoration of religious exercises in the public schools of that city; and how that a committee of five, “consisting of three Protestants — Ex-President Woolsey of Yale, the Rev. Dr. Harwood, and Rev. John E. Todd — and two Roman Catholics — Fathers Fitzpatrick and Murphy — were appointed to arrange a form of worship” for the schools. The result was that a responsive exercise for teachers and pupils was framed, in which the following passage was to be recited between the Lord’s prayer and the “Apostles’“ Creed: — “Teacher — Hall, Marry, full of grace; the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus! “Children Respond. — Holy Mary, mother of Go, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.” Christian Cynosure, November 17, 24, 1887. The gentleman cannot have made this so very much of a study after all, or he would have known that Jefferson was not in this country at that time, and had nothing to do with the framing of the Constitution. Yet even though he had, it would only have been to his everlasting honor, and would have been no reflection on that document. Senate Hearing on “Sunday Bill,”. There is no such statement in the Bible. “ The-rulers of Massachusetts put the Quakers to death, and banished the ‘Antinomians’ and ‘Anabaptists,’ not because of their religious tenets, but because of their violations of the civil laws. This is the justification which they pleaded, and it was the best they could make.

    Miserable excuse !... So the defenders of the Inquisition have always spoken and written justification of that awful and most iniquitous tribunal.” — Baird, “Religion in America,” book 2, chap. 19, par. 14, note. Bower’s “History of the Popes,” Palagius, par. 6. For record of cases see Appendix. At each successive session of the legislature since, strong efforts have been made again to repeal this section. Blakely’s”American State Papers,”. “Government Chaplains,” by Lorenzo D. Johnson, 1856. Yet instead of allowing the institution to stand self-condemned upon his own positive evidence, and demanding its unconditional abolition, he advocated a “reform” that would be nothing less than a positive establishment of religion — he wanted a governmental examining board of clergy to pass upon the qualifications for all candidates for chaplaincies in the army and navy. As for chaplains for Congress, he wanted them taken in succession, a week each, from thesettled pastors of Washington City. Blakely’s “American State Papers,”. Congressional Record, Fifty-first Congress, first session, p. 8,341. Id., p. 8,353. All the quotations in this division are from the same number of the Record; that is, the Congressional Record dated July 25, 1890, giving the proceedings of the 24th. In the New York Independent of March 19, 1891, Janes M. King, D.

    D., who was present at Washington, working against the appropriations, describes “the most humiliating spectacle, to see representatives of sovereign States, as well as the representatives of districts,... give expression to their fears that their vote in accord with their convictions would prejudice their political future.” The opposition succeeded in reducing the appropriations to the Protestant denominations by the sum of $8,814, while in spite of all opposition, the appropriation to the Catholic Church was increased by the sum of $6,392, for the fiscal year 1891-92. (See Independent February 12, 1871.) The proceedings in both these hearings, are printed in full in the United States State Document, “Religion and Schools, Notes of Hearings,” of above dates. It is true that both Senator Blair and Senator Edmunds are now out of senatorial office; but their influence in behalf of such legislation as this is not much lessened by that, except in the power to vote for it. That this point not misplaced was made evident shortly afterward in Plainfield, N. J. The Pearl of Days, the official organ of the American Sunday Union, in March, 1889, gave the following statement from the Plainfield [N.J.] Times [no date]: “As a rule Plainfield, N. J., is a very quiet city on Sunday. Liquor, provision, and cigar stores are closed by the enforcement of a city ordinance. If a resident wants a cigar, he will either have it given to him by one of the many pharmacists who refuse to sell on?Sunday, or he will go to the two dealers who are allowed to open t heir places on Sunday because they observe Saturday as their Sabbath. Some time ago a man of Catholic faith, who had an eye to Sunday business in that line, became a regular attendant at the Seventh day Baptist church Eventually he asked to be admitted into the fellowship of the church . A member of the official board was advised that the applicant for membership was only working for business ends He was closely examined by the church officers, and he finally admitted that he wanted to open a cigar store and do business on Sunday. The man appeared at the wrong place for aid in carrying out his mercenary purpose He was not received into membership and the southern sentinel of Dallas we have an example of how the law can he evaded.

    Parties have leased the billiard hall of the new Mc Leod Hotel, and have stipulated in their lease that they are conscientious observers of the seventh day [though to the best of the common knowledge and belief they are not]; that, in consequence, their business house will be closed on Saturday, and will be open on Sunday.” Let us not be misunderstood in this. We do not deny the right of any person to keep Sunday. So far as earthly government, or any authority of mankind is concerned, any person has just as much right to keep Sunday as anybody has to keep the Sabbath. This is their right, and they are responsible to God only, for the exercise of it. What we object to is their assumption of authority , and their demand for laws, to compel anybody to keep it. Nor do we object to their doing this because there is no command of God for it. We would object just as much to their doing it, though there were ten thousand commands of God for it. No authority but that of God can ever of right enforce a command of God. Men are responsible to God alone for their conduct with respect to anything by him. Christian Statesman, August 31, 1881. Essays, “Von Ranke.” See Revelation 17:5: “Upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY,BABYLON THE GREAT,THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” This savors strongly of the “breath of the Puritan” which Dr. Herrick Johnson so devoutly invokes.
