[circular.] NEW ZEALAND TABLET OFFICE, Dunedin, January 28th, 1876. \\ HERE AS it is customary with the non-Catholic Press to V \ misrepresent all matters connected with the Catholic Church — some more violently, some under the cloak of tolei'ation ; but not for that the less injuriously — it is necessary for the upholding of the Faith, and that it may be represented in its true light, that Catholic newspapers should be published. The object of the New Zaaland Tablet is not to enter into stormy controversies with opponents, nor to interfere with the members of the various Protestant communities in the management of their own affairs, but to give a true version of those matters in which j the actions and the doctrines of Catholics and of the Church are ' falsely sot forth ; to provide Catholics with reading which shall advance them in the knowledge of their religion and apprise them of transactions in all parts of the world, in which, as Catholics, , they have an interest ; to warn them against certain dangers which ] beset them, and particularly against those arising from any parti- ! cipation in the work of Secret Societies — which are the more in- ■ sidious that they include in the number of their members many I excellent persons, who are totally ignorant of the deep designs, in ' accomplishing which they aid by the support given by their names and position ; but which, were their eyes opened to the real nature of these associations, they would be the first to draw back from with horror. It is, moreover, the office of the Tablet to remove that veil of prejudice through which the Irish nation is regarded ; to exhibit it, not, indeed, as perfect, but as possessing only those faults which ages of mißgovernment could not fail to impress it with ; to hold up to admiration its patience under long oppression ; its steadfastness against all temptations to renounce its faith ; its thirst after education; its longing for political regeneration, and that by wise legislation it may be enabled to hold up its head, so that Ireland may be described with truth in the poet's words — Great, glorious, and free— First flower of the earth, And first gem of the sea. The object, then, of the New Zealand Tablet being simply justice, it has every right to appeal for support to all who love that great virtue; and we now call upon those who do so to aid us in the cause which we have adopted, and with which every right-minded man, untrammelled by prejudice and free from bigotry, must sympathise.
