Journal; and; in succession, Editor of the Irish Thibuni, and

Drogheda Argus

The want of a Catholic journal in Liverpool and the great
towns. of Lancashire has long been felt and deplored. Whilst
every other Interest in the community is adequately represented
at the press, it is sadly true that the Catholic people have no
special organ—that their public spirit finds- no voice—their
. principles -no exponent—their social and political rights no
defender.

Lancashire has justly been termed the great centre of Catho-
licity in England ; and yet all attempts at establishing a
Catholic journal in the county have heretofore proved failures.

of a Catholic Press ; but assure*, the numerous institutions
around us, devoted to religion and education, and erected by
the voluntary contributions of the Catholic people, attest that
they cannot be attributed to a want of a Catholic public spirit.
Recognising the want, and feeling convinced that the Catholic
people of Liverpool, and of Lancashire generally, will support

and to bast his hope of success solely on the condition of de-

rvhig it.
