This Work not only gives an account of
the Catholic icReligon in the United States
but in Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Italy,
South America, Mexico, Canada, &C., &C.,
sc. /; also, an explanation of their articles
of faith, with their Seven Sacraments,
which they hold to be indispcnsably 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 hithcr.
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 corruptions
of the Catholic Priesthood, and the inhu-
name means used by them to extort money
from their ignorant and deluded dupes.
Their Internal tricks and plans for carrying
out their licentiousness are fully detailed,
as also the many ways in which they destroy
their offspring 10 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
greater service then by aiding in its ex-
tcnsiqe circulation.
The above named work was designed by
its author, to enlightcn the American Pco-
|plo on the subject of Popery as it occurs in
this country; and it is a disclosure of events
and Of the plans and operations Of that
church, which must be Of interest to the
Christian philanthropist and republican.
With the present aspect of Romanism in
this country, this is work worthy Of q
place in every Protestant family.
We are of an opinion that thereis 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
n standard work on Popery.
We could procure q 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.
