not only by the diversity of subjects but the wideness of range which mark our Masonic literature ! History and tradition , ritual and laws , attack and defence , poetry ancl the drama , philosophy and archaeology , numismatology and biography , all are there classified
and abounding , and every collector of Masonic books is fully aware how many Masonic works really exist , and how many even of which for the most parfc we know nothing about . And the only way to bring such knowledge home to the minds of Freemasons is the creation of
Masonic libraries . There are plenty of Masonic works , old and modern , to be found , and every Masonic library at a reasonable outlay , and under the advice of a competent librarian , can now procure many curious productions to fill its shelves .

are so sparse and our readers so few . We believe that the absence of libraries has tended to encourage and add to our Craft apathy on the subject .

Roman Catholic Intolerance.
ROMAN CATHOLIC INTOLERANCE .
Our readers will , we fear , be almost tired of such a subject , and yet we seem to have no other course left open to us , but again to call attention to the mournful and indubitable fact . We publish a very sad recital of a very lamentable outbreak of Roman Catholic feeling against a Freemason
and a Protestant in South America , and we beg to invite the attention of Roman Catholics themselves to it . An English Freemason and Protestant , Bro . Wallace , was intened in the public cemetery at Guayacan . After a time it was quite clear , by ocular demonstration , that the
coffin had been disturbed , and , as we understand the painful recital , the body removed from the coffin . And , what adds to the grotesque barbarity of the whole proceeding , a cross appears to have been marked on the wall of the cemetery near to the grave , to point out , we suppose , what had
been effected in the name of religion , peace , and charity , and , above all , professedly in His blessed Name who came to show love and pity to all the human race , and died on the actual cross to save all mankind . A more saddening narrative of bigotry never was sent to us , a more
depressing evidence of human intolerance never came before our notice . We are accustomed , indeed , to fierce anathemas and bellicose bishops ; we have read , and read quitecalmly , unfounded calumnies and bitter incriminations . We have even got quite accustomed to the violence of
Ultramontane abuee , and the assertions and announcements , equally erroneous and untrue , of so-called Infallible authority . But to realise that the war with the living is to be perpetuated in the quiet cemetery , to know that death , which levels all distinctions , closes all debates , and hushes all strife , is
not , fromthe Ultramontane view , to put an end to the rancour or the antagonism of earth , is , indeed , most painful . to every thoughtful mind . For surely , just as we cannot carry away our riches with us when we are deposited in the silent
grave , when , as children of the dust , we find our common level , so surely in the one restingplace of humanity , there should be deposited the angry passions and the intolerant animosities which divide us from one another here , and mar
Roman Catholic Intolerance.
the peaceful progress of society with hateful variance and cruel strife . Indeed , moralists ancl philosophers have often rejoiced to think and to believe there was one spot where human passions would be stilled , where the bitter hatred and the deadly dislike might be unknown , when over the
excited imagination , the busy brain , the perverse disposition , and the tenacious will , might fall , so to say , the peaceful slumber of that intermediate state , which stretches out in its unfathomable mystery and silence , and sternness and repose , between earth and Heaven , between time and
etermly . The popular saying has ever been , whether sound or unsound , or even "humbug , " as Archdeacon Grantlev remarked , " di mortuis nil nisi bonum , " and we all of us more or less feel , we believe , be we who we may , that in the grave all enmities should end , and in death all old
guefs , and complaints , and wrath should be at any rate forgotten . But the Church of Rome , with hazardous boldness , seems to say , " I am above the ' consensus' of humanity ; I ignore the most deeply rooted sentiments of mortals . ' Extra Ecclesiam nulla salus ; ' and for those who
defy my laws , for those who reject my teaching , who claim liberty of conscience , or avow a difference of belief , I have curses while living ; I have no forgiveness when dead . " For we feel sure of this , that were it not for this detestable teaching , worthy only of the " Avocato del
Diabolo , " Roman Catholics , who are not unlike other men , would never be consenting parties to , or share in , snch revolting inhumanity , by which affection is deeply wounded , and which is indeed an outrage on every kindly feeling of the human race . But we have said enough on so humiliating
a topic , humiliating alike to all who , like ourselves , believe in the regeneration of humanity . And having called attention to the subject , as was our imperative duty , we leave it in all its morbid sadness of stern and indubitable truth , to the bitterest of Ultramontane assailants , and the appreciation of our universal brotherhood .
