This Work not only gives an account OF
he Catholic Religion in the United States
but in Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Italy,
South America, Mexico, Canada,, &C., &c,
&c. also, an explanation Of their articles
of faith, with their Seven Sacraments,
which they hold to be ndispensably neces-
sary to their salvation; together with some
very interesting facts concerning Bishop
who is extensively known in this country
as one of the greatest advocates of Popery,
with his Oath prior to his coming hther.
1t also shows to what an extent Popery is
making its ravages throughout the United
States and the world; while at the same
time it exposes the abominable corruptons
of the Catholic Priesthood, and the iuhu-
name means used by them to extort money
from their ignorant and deluded dupes.

out their licentiousness are fully detailed,
as also the many ways in which they destroy
their offspring to avoid detection.
In short, all the facts embraced in this
work are we'll calculated to excite a deep
interest in the mind of every friend of true
Religion ; and they cannot render the cause
n greater service then by aiding in its ex-
tensiqe circulation.
| The above-named work was designed, by
its author, to enlighten the American Peo-
plo on the subject of Popery as it occurs in
this country and it is n disclosure of events
and Of the plans and operations of that
church, which must be Of interest to the
Christian philanthropst and republican.
With the present aspect Of Romanism in
this country, this is work worthy of a
place in every Protestant family.
We are of an opinion that there's embodied
in Hogan's writings, more valuable infor-
nation in regard to Romanism in America
then in all the authors put together who
have written on the subject. Some thou
sands Of copies of this work have been dis
trsbuted in New England, and have been
received by the Protestant communities as
q standard work on Popery.
We could procure large number of tes-
timonials in regard to the work but trust
that the certificates given, will be sufficient
to insure it the confidence Of the public.
