POPULAR ERRORS.
That all is Imputable iu war,
politics and love.
That it is a meritorious act to lie
in order to forward a good cause
That a good cause can eventually
succeed wheal based upou uutruths.
That the I)oiniuiou Parliament
passed the Jesuits hstates Act.
That the money voted by the
legislature of Quebec,aceruing out of
the sale of the former Jesuits estates
now the property of the province,
will .be paid out of 1)owiniou
funds.
That it is right for the Dominion
Parliament to disallow provincial
• legislation when such legislation
is declared by the British
North America Act to be with-
in the exclusive control of a pro-
vince to deal with.
That one province has a right to
interfere with the heal legislation
of another province.
That Mrs. Grundy has the right
tri et:+p across• the way into the
house of MIs. Partington and insist
that the latter shall regulate the
• internal economy of her house
according to the ideas of Mrs.
Gruudy, be these ideas never so
good. •
That the said Mrs. Grundy has
„ the right to force her neighbor to
have her curtains match the• carpet;
and the blinds on 'the window to
thatch the color of the outside of the
house.
That a Christian minister, ostensi-
bly following in the wake of the
great Master, has the right to
prauco round the country and
bring up on a platforn, ae a polo', et!'
aviator.
f hat ministers of the Gospel
have a better knowledge of coneti-
• tutional law titan the law officers of
the growl;.
That ecclesiastical courts should
decide legal questions and kuottyw
political. points. .
That Moreau Catholic or Protes-
tant hierarchies h;tve "the right to
stir up a mixture of religions bigot
ry, intolerance and supeistitiou in
the political cauldron and serve out
the bell broth to tire the passions of
the people at:d set thein at the
throats or each other.
That the spirit of the Lord of floats
will be imide manifest by stirring
nit the spirit of the devil which is
latent in all in tukind.
That religious strife if fanned to
its utmost will not -result iu the
slaughter of Protestants as in the
time of Bloody Mary and of Catho-
lics iu the time of Elizabeth.
That Christianity demands the
stirring up of this strife, and that
peace on earth and good will to-
wards teen will bo the result.
That the dropping of a. coal of
fire into a keg of powder will have
the same effect as pouring oil upon
agitated water.
That because a inau'a conscience,
contrary to all 'experience, says
the contact of fire with powder
would be harmless, that he is doing
a good work by acting according to
his coucience though murderous loss
of life would ensue.
That a elan cauuot bo couscient-
ously wrong as well as conscientious-
ly right. '
That a giveu line of conduct iu
religio-political clatters will not
produce the same result to day as it
did in the middle ages, or even ono,
two or three centuries ago; even
that fire applied to gunpowder will
not produce an explosion to day just
as it did centinies ago.
7'hat tlto cl:whiug of religious an-
tipathies will not produce as disas-
trous results as the clashing of op•
posing chemical substances.
ernment in this Protestant Canada
of Dura is the most effective moaus
to check 1' n anises.
That depriving any one Province,
even though it be a Catholic one, of
its poustitutioual rights is a blow at
the pel'rnaneuey of responsible gov-
ernment in a Proviuce that is not
Catholic.

That the people of the Proviuce
of Ontario have no more right to
call in the aid of the Doiniuiun
Parliament to coerce the people of
Quebec into legislation to suit us
than one neighbor has the right to
call in the Mayor of this town to
coerce auother neighbor into ab-
staining from or into eatiug moat on
Friday's or on all days daring Lent,
That if a town or township passed
a by-law which was alleged to be
beyond their legal powers to pass,
those ohjeotiug to it would have no
more right to call upon the Jlayor,or
the County Council, or the Ontario
P,u'lianten1 to disallow it than li ve
those of us who object to the Jesuits
Act the right to call upon the Du-
miuion Parliament to disallow that
ineasuro.
That if a municipal by-law is
illegal the 'courts are the proper
tribunals to pass upon it, as is
al ;ways done, and as was done in'the
Guelph Junction Railway by law
loan of $18,000 the other day, and
which was disallowed -by Judge
Galt as given in another column.
That if law and constitutional
usage are not resorted to to redress
even admitted grievous and import-
ant public differences, we would be
as well without all law, law courts
or any constitution.
That without law, law courts and
a well defined constitution we would
he in a continual ferment of anarchy
and rebellion. • '
'That Parliament's•m:die laws and
Courts,construe theut.-
That all proper civil government
would cease to exist were Parlia•
molts, clerical courts, or masa meet-
ings or individuals allowed to pass
upon and act, upon their respective
cuustl actions of purely legal ques-
tions such as are involved in the
Jesuits Act. '!
That if the constitution or the
law is defective 'Parliament is the
proper body to rectify either. In•
the one case by conjoint Dominion
aid Imperial legislation ; in the
other by specific legislat`o•t of
Parliament alone.
That rovulutiou against act •loa-
lodged imperfect or unjest legisla-
tion is commendable and is the
outcome of duty and patriotism.
That legitimate levolntion will
abide by the ordinary and civili-e.1
nodes of redress until they are ex-
hausted.
That amtrehieal ►'evolutiou trill
not, but is rho on: ;onto of ''‘AWft
rebellion unless all peaceable means
of redress are exhaustoed.
' That reform and revolution are
pernlissable under responsible
'government.
That rebellion is not, brae' ee
responsible govelnntent menus that
the people themselves a e re ,ousi-
ble, and rebellion against constitu-
tional and responsible govornmeet
means rebellion by , the people
against themselves.
That to ask Parliament to do an
unconstitutional act as the,dis
allowing of the Quebec Jesuits Act
is to counsel rebellion.

Some foolish, Quebec Protestants
charge the hominlion Parliament
with showing a craven spirit by
allowing the Quebec Jesuit Bill.
The •protestauts of Montreal and
Quebec generally, should feel a-
shamed of themselves. They stand
before the world as cravens. . For
they never opened their mouths to
protest against the paseege of the
Bill in the legislatnre of Quebec,
but no sootier was it passed without
their opposition than they appeal
to the Douliuiou to unconstitution-
ally disallow au Act which by their
own silence they were a consenting
party to.
