Animals and plants are constrained by
no artificial notion of propriety -no,
subjection of one sex to the other -no
prudish and finical conventions -no fear
of social ostracism. The moral and the

from the nonhuman stage in his upward,
struggle, female slavery became an in-

The idea of imparting religious les-

clucetl. He undertook to educate reli-
giously 600,000 ignorant slaves" without
tact assistance of teachers and without
the atel of text -bootee, but merely, by
signs and symbols. .
He also appointed his brother.a0 high
priest, who, by his mode of livIngt and
by his apparel, should serve his people
as a model and living example. His
wait°, linen garraente should teach them

enable them to a

*In their land shalt thou have no in-
heritance," etc., "I am thy portion and
thy inheritance:ado. From these words
we plainly see that the -high priest was
strictly prohibited front owning any
property, from possessing earthly goods.
It seems to me that in our present day
and more especially in this country, ail

could not so easily be filled . beceuse tt
