Some Quaker gentleman has addressed
letter to the Hon. Mark A. Cooper, Of Geo,
in commendation Of his speech against the
appointment Of Chaplain to Congress, which
that gentleman has communicated to the
Globe. Ii contains the following paragraph,
which, with all possible Difference to those
concerned in its publication, we consider a
libel upon American history, and an outrage
upon the fair fame Of the fathers and preserv-
ers Of the Republic.


This nation has long been slumbsring over this
INVASION OF THEIR LIBERTIEs, and II Is feared are
not readily TO be aroused 10 proper sense OF the
danger"


What danger! The danger Of having
prayers to Almighty God in the Hall of the
House of Representatives


1t is denounced as taring The people TO sup
port reigion


All these ad coptandum dennnciations Of
things really good, are founded upon con
tempt Of the people. Their authors seem to
think that "the people are to be caught by the
ears, as one catches pot by the handle"
