and parlizan editors are hurling their ana
lhemas at the order of know -Nothings, y
denouncing all purely local American
organizations "as secret bands of conspira-
tors against the rights and liberties of the
American People,! they are silent rs the
grave with regard to another secret order
which prevails in this county to an exr
tent that appals all who know how FAR it
runs, and which is suggestive Of revol-
yers aud bowie knives. We allude TO the
Most H,ly Order of Jesus, commonly
known, in this country as Jesuits, a secret
organization of Roman Catholics, the
members Of which are sworn to wage. a
war Of extermination against the Protes-
tant religion and to spread The supremacy
and promote the interest, assumptions and
pretensions ofthe Pope Of Rome in this
country. BY all means good or bad. at their
command. This foreign secret organiZa-
ton prevails in this country to an extent
that few men dream of, but its members,
The whole town of Harrisburg has recent
ly been excited about an imaginary order
Of Know Notllings, said 10 be compos-
ed of Americans Protestants, whose
objectiS the preservation Of the Bible, the
prgpetuation of their religion, and protec-
ton against the encroachments OF the Pa
pal power And this American organiza-
ton has been denounced by leading Dem
ocralic editors as "secrct band Of con
spirators against the right and liberties Of
the American people, while their lips
are llermelically sealed with regard 10 a
secret organization of whigb the Pope is
the great head and the members of which
acknowledge allegiance TO no power on
earth save the Pope of Rome. -., s.s. .
The Jesuit is here, there and everywhere
with his breath of poison and touch of
death, Crafty, base, mean, treacherous
and devilish, there is no, deed that is too
atrocious for him toS undertake, for the ad
,yancement of Papal power, and the over
, throw Of the civil and religious institutions
of this country. He cunspires everywhere
for the downfall of the liberty of the people
=Ghe is ever the SAME infamous character
the same at Rome, in Harrisburg. IN the
regions of beat IN those ofcQld. All good
men abhor him. all decent men fear, and
shun him. His very garments are rank
With the odor ofcrime. The Jesuit! What
is he not? And yetthese secret bands OF
bfureign conspirators against the rights and
liberties and religion Of the American poo
pie, are permitted to meet in secret CON
clave, plot and counterplot, and not one
word Of denunciation do we bear from the
political while secret American. as
sociatious, organized for the protection OF
the Bible, and the defence of the religion OF
home, are anathemlized as antirepublicapi
dangerous to the liberties of the country.
Political demsgouges will soon begin to
discover that there is power IN this
country greater than that Of the Jesuits,
and hereafter no man can hope to attain
: official position at the hands Of the Ameri'
can people who is not wholly free from the
entangling alliances which seek the over
throw of Protestantismand Repubhcanism
