As Caasius NJ Clay in his speech this evening seemed
Hing to any objection to bis arguments, beg
permission through your columns recall his attention
TO the unqualified praise bestowed the justice of Mas
sachusetts and in counexion Herewith ask him
Catholics oil that for their property destroyed in
the burning of the Charlestown Convent


body OF unotfendng females kept school for the in
strucon of youththey paid taxes for the protection OF
goyernment-they were brutay sailed by mob, their
Dropery DESTROYED their lives endangered and the
graves of their dead and the Sanctuary OF God violated
within sight of Bunker Hill. They sought from that Jas
government the protection for pkch they had paid and it
was denied them they have since sought compensation
for the injury and have sought it in vain

OF hi. nine shings what principle is right to rob
ajpapist OF his on the grounds If Mr.. Clay hnds
so much lsud in the justice OF Massachusetts, hope
he will when he speaks tomorrow evening revert to
this and explain how and why 1t is that the rule
don't work both ways Yours, &c. EQUAL RIGHTS
" Is il not one thing in government 10 rob n
man of his rights By lar, and quite another to de-
cline compromising him for any injury he may have
uniustly sustained through the violence or wrong
doing of persons whom the Law neither authorizes
so to do nor justies in so doing We surely think
So We wish Massachusetts would pay for the burnt
Convent but do no, consider her refusal or neglect ut
all parallel with the studied denial Of Political Rights
