Show THE CHURCH REVIEW <br><br> pen in the north there should go up a righteous protest against these wrongs until the public conscience is awakened and the federal authority is exerted to protect the negroes in the enjoyment of the rights accorded to them by the constitution. <br><br> ON several occasions THE REVIEW has felt called upon to criticize the invidious slurs and uncharitable insinuations cast at Christian people in general by a paper called the "Argus;" the sole objects being to expose the injustice of those slurs and to show that journal the error of its way, with the hope that it would depart therefrom. The latter good intention was lost on desert air. The inflated ego of the gentlemanly journalist who illumines that publication with his rhetorical gems, (an ego that can find occasion to use the personal pronoun seven times, six of which are large "I's," in seven lines), "boiled" over, and when, boiled down, the effervescence of his luminous intellect reads as follows: <br> "A so-called church publication . . . this religious paper for revenue only . . . which deals in untruths as freely as some ministers deal in hypocrisy . . . on a number of occasions used its space to berate the "Argus," . . . simply lied for the lust of lying, and was animated by a vain hope that by its lies it could injure it in the estimation of its readers." <br> This one specimen of Websterian eloquence, of Baconian logic, would indicate that the mental sewer of its author is in need of repairs, and is ample justification for every criticism made by the REVIEW upon the "Argus." If any one would see superb examples of monumental mendacity, they are referred to the fearfully and wonderfully woven "fairy tales" which adorn that particular department of the "Argus" called "observations"-"fairy tales" which delight to clothe the greatest sinner in a halo of glory and adorn the saints in general with horns and hoofs. THE REVIEW would feel inclined to apologize to its readers for having even mentioned the name of such a paper in its columns were it not for the fact that everything we have said was justifiable and needed to be said. <br> * * * <br> MORAL - While stirring may purify certain things, the atmosphere in the immediate vicinity is not always benefited by the operation.
