We are all familiar with the beautiful story of the Angel appearing to the shepherds on the plains of Bethlehem, of the fear that came upon the men at the appearance of the Heavenly Visitant, and of their fear being dispelled by the words. " Fear not, for, behold. I bring you good tidings ot' greatjoy, which shall le to all people For unto you is born this day, in the City of David, a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.” Then. euddcnly. as it' they had just been wailing until these glad tidings of a Saviour’s Birth, these wondrous tidings of God made man, thtse joyous tidings of salvation from sin through the Incarnate God. a multitude of his fellows, surrounded the Herald Angel. and Bctlilchem’s plains, reposing in the light of the moon's silvt r beams. were made vocal by the song of‘ the angelic choristers, as they Exclaimed “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peacn. good-will towards men." From that day to this the song then sung has been taken up by the ambassa dors of' the Cross, and has been hent‘d in many lands {'ar distant from Judah ; and Is echoed on for ever: ‘Glnry to God on high, an earth be peace.

Not being connected with either of' the parties, we are not conâ€" cerned to deny that both of them have truckled to the Catholic vote. But we must beg leave to protest against the inference that this stone is tied round the neck of the Province for ever. The United States do not give the Roman Catholics Separate Schools, nor dens any country so fur as we know. in which the Roman Catholic priesthood is not, domiâ€" nant. Why should Canada be comâ€" pelled to do it? To pretend that the religion ot'l‘louian Catholic children is exposed to danger in the Public Schoole is preposterous. Many of' them have at tended and are attending the Public Schools without the slightest detriment to their religion. The object of the rays- tem is to separate the Roman Catholic pnrt ol' the community from the test, and to keep them use State within a State, under the exclusive swayot‘ the with; principles ol modernAciyilisation.
