To meet intell igently and satisfactorily the widened duties that our uew conditions impose upon us, we must got rid of many of the old prejudices that have hampered us aud forget many of the polit ical dogmas that have made us take unrrow views of the rights of man, and treat our new fellow 1 citizens in the broad spirit that wherever he may live, under whatever clime he breathes, "A man's a man for all that," O.
