He received McMaster's letter asking for a renewal of his subscription in the Freeman's Journal. Since they have not received a number since last fall, they thought it a waste of money. They supposed McMaster knew the Journal did not come to this state by mail. They did see the number containing Bishop John Spaulding's pastoral letter. If the Journal is ever allowed to circulate here again, McMaster may expect to hear from Newman. :: I-1-m A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.

Scope and Contents McMaster's letter is an interesting and kind one. It is out of his power to avail himself of his suggestion. It would be a privilege to be concerned in giving the world the remains of a man like Carey, but he, Newman, is the last who should do it. Carey was high in the favor of his church. With Newman it is just the reverse although there may be many individuals who think kindly of him. It is plain that though Carey was born on this side of the Atlantic, he is the property of America....

Scope and Contents Nilan asks for a circular on Brownson's Works, which he hopes to procure, along with Brownson's translation of Farducci's Life of Columbus, for the city Library.

Even Columbus evinced some of the same traits and deserves reprobation for his unjust initiation of slavery, although his motives may so...
