Prince County, April 26, 1869, To THe Eprrork or THe EXaminer, Sir ; It is a favorite arguinent with those who appose a grant to St. Dunstau’s College, that Catholics hase aa much reason to demand grants to their Churches as to their Schools. I cannot see the matter in thie light. The morai and religious training of the people is not supported by Gov ernment, benee Catholics have no right to Church grants. But the State undertakes to pay fer the secular education of the rising generation: and St. Dunstan's College, imparting suck education efficientiy to all denominations, 18, in my opinion, highly entitled to a share of the pubiie money contributed for the purpase. The doors of the College are free to all—the religion of any student is not tampered with—the devotional ex- ercises practised therein do net in the least inter- fere with their studiee—a Jarge number of differ- ent persuasions actually attend the College on account of ite superior facilities for Jearning— then why withbold Government allowarce trom an inetitution which 1 domyg so much towards supplying that species of education which the State takes on itself to pay fort Is it because Sir; I beg through the columns 9f your influential journal to call the attention of our citizens to what I consider a public scandal. A monument has boen erected over the grave of the poor unfor- tunate profligate and murderer, Dowey. I, a8 well as thousands of others hepe that the poor culprit died pemtent: but did any one ever bear of & monument being erected to the memory oi a man who confessed on the gallowe that be was a murderer, and that he bad been, from his youth, a most debauched character! I believe that many unfortunate criminals died in peace with their Maker; but I never heard of people outraging public feeling and decency by making saints and martyrs of such pereous, and erecting marble monuments to their memory. God forbid that I should make Dewey blacker than he painted bim- aelt; but L solhnnly protest against the imeult off-red to public deceney by the erection of this tuonument. May 3, 1869. CIVIs. Che Cxraniner. Charlottetown, May 3, 1869, —_— ee THE EDUCATION QUESTION. Wauexever the State has undertaken to treat its subjects as children, and to fulfil to- wards them the duties of a parent, it has ever proved itself a very step mother. The State has attempted to do this pot only in Ireland but also in this Island; hence the failure of our system of Education, The great argument of those who introduced the godless system was this: —‘¢ Let Catholies and Protestants be instructed together without any allusion to re- ligion and they will grow up together in charity; and after a while we shall have no sectarian bickerings ” The very opposite has been the result. Before the present system of Educa- tion was introduced, Catholics and Protestants lived in peace and harmony; they agreed to differ in religious matters; Catholics were al- lowed a share of the fands to which they con- tributed for educational purposes, and there was no sign of the majority tyrauizing over the minority, merely because they were the lizion. The time was when a Catholic Bishop walked the streets of Charlottetown, arm and arm, with the Rector of St. Paul's. But our ‘noble system” of Education has pet an end tion; and who should poiat this out but the very toacher who instracts in “ From him the lesson is both opportune an, impressive, that the proof of the esi the hypotenuse is equal to the squares of two sides containing the rizht angle, alrhoegh it is different in its natave.

But we are asked is it fair to expect Protest- ants to coutribate towards the support of an in- atitution which, according toe their beliel, teaches error. In justice it must be observed that only the bigets raised this ridieulons objection. Our iiberal-minded dissenting brethren, who send their boys to the Catholie College in preference teany other school, have no such scruples ebout giving it encouragement and support, Neither have the nuwerous Proteatauts—Jadges, Mem- bers of Parhament, and other influential gentle men amongs. the nnnber—who are ever ready te give expressivn to the high estimation in which they hold tae institution as a place of learning. Aud do “the riguliy righteous,” whe would have it wiped ent of existence if they had their wiil, believe theumelves more erthedux, or better ser- and Cathohe against Protestant. And why ? Because the State, ur the majority, have im- posed on the minority a system of education, a godless system, to which as parents, men an‘ christians, the minority ate imposed ; be- cause the State, depending on numbers, or in other words, on brute force, tyrannically com- pel the minority to pay a large amount for purpeses which the latter cannot and wij] not approve. This is the whole educatioual diffi- culty ina nutsbell. There never will be peace in this community uutil this question is settled on the basis of common justice Whatever amount of money Protestant parents pay for the edneation of their children should be ex- pended just as they please, and not as the Hon Mr. Tom, Dick, aud Harry may dictate ; and whatever amount Catholics may contribute towards the education fund should be expended They merely wished to vindicate before the public, an efficient officer, and to show that the charges so recklessly made by Mr. McRae were false and unfounded. We explained at the time that the Rev. A Mac- Donald had nothing whatever to do with the urticle which appeared in this paper, and that we did not even receive our information from bim, but our explanations were lost upon an individual who seemed bent upen pursuing an evil course. We thought, too, that the letter published in the Summerside Journal of the 18th of March last, and signed Alex. McRae, was not written by himself. Although it abound- ed in scruillity and falsified the ques- tions asked by the Rev. A. McDonald, still it was tolerably well written.

The facts to which he ailudes are simply these: G.

But it will not be useless to point out that this in- jurious effect of State instruction on religion, ion the rules of grammar are violated. With respect to the questions which were put to Mr. McRae’s pupils by the Rector, and which were critisized by the former gentleman, they are almost to trivial for notiee, but we may say that if scholars cannot answer from the text books out of which they are taught, they can hardly be expected to know much about McAulay’s style of language.

But in this there lurks a fundamental error, that religion is a thing apart, like the knowledge of ancther language, or a totally separate science, and that it is to be practised at certain times, but has no direct connection with other portions of teaching or action; in a word, that we are taught our religion only when we are taught action of our life, and every branch of our Grammar class if the adjective * true” admit- ted of comparison, He was immediately answered that it did; and it was compared thus: true, truer, trdest.
