Excerpt from Sequel to the So Called Correspondence Between the Rev. M. H. Smith and Horace Mann, Surreptitiously Published by Mr. Smith: Containing a Letter From Mr. Mann, Suppressed by Mr. Smith, With the Reply Therein Promised Rev. M. H. Smith; - Dear Sir; - When, on the 19th of October last, I addressed you a note privately, I had no anticipation of ever doing so, publicly. You have forced this painful necessity upon me. I had then just seen, in the Boston Recorder of Oct. 15, a report of "A Sermon" twice delivered by you, in Boston, - once in Faneuil Hall, and once in your own pulpit. In that Sermon, the Massachusetts Board of Education were charged with the gravest offences against morals and religion. The Board then consisted of His Excellency, Governor Briggs, His Honor, Lieut. Governor Reed, Hon. Wm. G. Bates, Rev. Dr. Humphrey, J. W. James, Esq., Prof B. Sears, Rev. E. H. Chapin, Rev. H. B. Hooker, and Hon. S. C. Phillips, - three of the nine being eminent Orthodox clergymen, and - three others, members of Orthodox societies. These gentlemen, - these ornaments to learning and religion, - were charged by you with aiding, in their combined and collective capacity, to get the Bible out of our Common Schools; to get all religious instruction out of them; to remove all restraints from the depraved passions of scholars, "but a little talk;" and, by the anti-religious, or nonreligious instruction encouraged by them in the Common Schools, to neutralize the religious instruction which pious parents and teachers might give at home, or in the Sabbath School. I was represented as the chief actor in this diabolical work; they, as my aiders and abettors. This atheistical work, - for the exclusion of all religion is atheism, - was not in prospect, in intention, merely. According to you, it had, in part, been already perpetrated.
