    A CATHOLIC ' S APPEAL AGAINS ^ TKE ORTHODOX . To the Editor of the Monthly Repository . v Sir ,

    As your Repository is conducted on a very liberal plan , J hope a Catholic may be heard in it as well as men of other parties . What I wish to say is , that we Catholics have been unjustly censured and condemned by many Protestants . It is well known that , in speaking ; of the Virgin Mary , we

    sometimes call her ' the Mother of God , " and that we sometimes pray to her . For these things we have been charged with blasphemy and idolatry , and tliat too by men who themselves say that the Son of Mary , is . God Almighty , and who frequently pray to him- What I allege is , that if such Protestants be right we cannot be wrong ; , and that they cannot condemn us

    without condemning themselves . If the Son of M&ry , be the true God , as multitudes :. of Protestants assert , how can it be wrong for us Catholics to call her " Mary , Mother of God ? n In condemning us for saying CQ Mary , Mother of God / 5 they evidently condemn themselves for saying that the Son of Mary is the only true God ; arid whilst : they think themselves justified in calling the Son , " God , " they justify , by their conduct ,

    our-calling the mother " Mother ot God . " As to our praying to Mary , if it be idolatry to pray to her , because she was a woman , who was born and died , how can it be otherwise than idolatry to pray to her Son , who was as really born , and ; did as really die , as hjs mother ? All the , difference is ,, that we pray to both Mother and Son , and they to the Son only ; but if we be idolaters , they must be such also , our practice being essentially the same , though circumstantially different ; both being in the practice of praying to a Being on all hands confessed to

    be human . Hoping this short communication will not be denied a place ui your Miscellany , merely because it comes from a Catholic , I remain , Sir , vour ' s , £ cc .
