The principle of Liberalism involved in the matter as it now stands is the right of every individual to the free expression of his opinions, and the unrestricted transmission of that expression through the length and breadth of the earth, without regard to the extent to which such opinions may be obnoxious, agreeable, or indifferent. By his conduct Heywood has dared to maintain this principle. That you are unable to comprehend him is not surprising, since you giv the key to the mystery in the remark that “he has not seemed to us a man with a coarse, animal nature.” As kindred natures only can arouse the sympathetic and appreciativ feeling within us, so it is not astonishing that you cannot understand Heywood. We will allow this inability to serve as the mantle of charity with which we will now cover your whole proceeding with regard to this question. | The principle of Liberalism involved in the matter as it now stands is the right of every individual to the free expression of his opinions, and the unrestricted transmission of that expression through the length and breadth of the earth, without regard to the extent to which such opinions may be obnoxious, agreeable, or indifferent.
