dawn Of day revealed the maDged and
dead bodies Of 100000 Hereiics. Is that
lie. my dear Priest? Jesuiiism breaks
the most binding oa,bs with impunity; il
can rob, lie and murder with the most
priestly grace il sanctions bribery Of judg-

again, let those who doubt, read and ex-
anime for themselves, not from the sayings
Of Protestants. but Jesuits themselves
Their own deeds condemn them. They
need no calculation TO a candid, thinking,
upright man. Jesutism is compound Of
sophistry, deception and duplicity, that
should never be tolerated among a free
people. That inherent love ths. the Jesu-
iticsi fathers display, is on'y cloak to a
full surfeit Of their libertinism, debaucbery
and vice, and life long career Of extortion
and knavery--indulgence in every vicious
and degrading propensity at the expense Of
their dupes. That is the liberty of the
Romish creed Their views are diametri-
cally opposite, and their deeds produce mis-
rule and anarchy. Through the medium
Of Bishops, Apostolical Wears, Priests, &c,
the adherence Of these papal bgots in our
! midst, are entirely controlled by the mitred
knsve Of Rome. He is their King political,
and their God spiritual. They would force
the Bible from our children and public
schools, and give them the missal and rosa
ry, and thereby substitute pspal tyranny
for religious tolersnce-cou they gain a
political ascendency. Are these falsehoods,
Sir Priest? Catholicism keeps its votaries
in utter ignorance, and by feeding them on
superstition and bigotry they form their
minds for the reception Of the grossest and
most unmitigated absurdities, in the shape
of pretended miracles and messages from
God through the speaking lips of marble
virgins and saints AT the day of final
Judgment there will be an aw ful revelation
against Romish pr:estcraft - countless
infant souls will rise up as Witnesses 10

will have tale of shameful sorrow and
suffering to unfold.
No, Mr. Priest, did not intend to pay
