paper will be generally read by intelli
gent people, and we opine that it is not
. necessary that one should be in commun
ion, or., sympathy ;,withj th4 Catholic
Church for one to be able to read with
satisfaction and approval this most im
portant utterance of the Supreme Pon
tiff. We may say, in the language of
the Philadelphia Times, that; "it is not
to be expected that the views expressed
by the Pope will be universally accept
ed just as they stand written ; but the
, general dextrine underlying! the,, whole
statement, the doctrine, that the world
is racked and tossed because it lacks
vital religion, must be' - admitted as1 Sub
stantially correct by every professing
Christian.'
And we adopt the language of an
other metropolitan newspaper, the New
York Sun, in saying .that, viewed in
its entirety, this letter is seen to form a
complete exposition of the' social and
economical .philosophy ( which is to. re
ceive the sanction another vehement
support of the Church under the guid
ance and impulse of its present head.
There is nothing vague or ; equivocal jin
this utterance of the Pontiff. With the
rigor of his nature, he hews down to the
core principles which lie at the root of
civil order, and formulates! his premises
with sharpness and decision."
The document is a very strong one in
every sense. It is well worthy the at
tention which it will command from
the civilized WOrld;Ei'ItsfJeadmst ideas
-are eminently (deserving the eoiisidera-
tion. of all.DeoDles, of . all .faiths. . and
Christian people, regardless of denomi
national lines, will find no difficulty in
. . subscribinsrto the chief eat of theaA iripis
7which is that the present unhappy con-
uiuuu ua luo wunu iii a suciai sense is
"tlue alone to a lack of vital religion
A fact which will add ;to the interest
which must attach to the letter by rea
son of its own merits, is the fact that it
was written by the hand of his holiness

STATE'S BIGOTS JIRei9
A Colored Member Offers a Substitute
for the Former Resolution.
Hiohmond, Jan; 31. In ttiejHouse to
day the report on the alleged usurpa
tion of the State's rights Dy Federal
Judge Riyes came up. Peter J. Carter,
colored member for Northampton coun
ty, submitted a substitute forthe ire;
port setting, forth that under the four
teenth amendment to the constitution,
no State shall deny to any person with
in its jurisdiction the equal protection
of the law. The substitute at some
length sets forth the equal rights be
longing to colored citizens,- nut asserts
that they do hot receive5 them, and al
leges great inequality in the punish
ment of the races for similar offences
committed by tither; It also contends
that the action of the United States
District Court for the western district
of Virginia in the case of the Eeynolds
brothers is a matter for the considera
tion of tho attorney-general , of (.-the
State, and with which the Legislature
has' no concern and' that the Legisla
ture should, in cowmen-fairness, to a.
class of citizens now grievously op
pressed by the present administration'
of the laws respecting juries, enact
measures f or.r their relief.' t Carter spoke
at length in favor of his. substitute.
The matter went over -without' action.
