There, liks,he visionary emblem seen

And 6lletsd about with hoops Of brass, 81

To count the hourbell and expect 20 change
To read engrayen on thsnOuldy walls,
In staggering types her predecessors tale,
A sad memorial, and srbjolnAher own.

When Cooper described the Shorrid
BasliIe, few Englishmen and no Amert
can dreamed that as horrid and abomina-
BILE prisons would be permitted in Eng
land or America under The sanctiOn Of a
church in the name Of converts. But il
is even so. Young girls of sixteen are
alIured into these, prisons, and after the
trap has enclosed them, and their proper
" IS secured in the convent, another door
is opened, and they are admitted into The
chambers of The prison from which there
! is no deliverance.
No deIverance by consent Of the Priest
hood or Of the Church. These prisons
are a part of The gear of the Church Of
Rome, she is not full harnessed for SER
vice without conyents.
The first movement of the devil for the
ruin of our race was in getting the ear of
our first mother away from the guardian
that God had given her. The master
piece of the devil is that work in which
by artifce and deception, through the
Priests of the Church of Rome, he
persuades young women and girls away
from their guardians, and the relationship
which God has given them. 'We put
ourselves into the hands of the devil,
said The nuns of Pisloria, when we put
ourselves into The hands of the Priests
Miss Bunkley has published All account
of her inveiglemenl into the convent-ihe
deception praclised on her enlrance-the
change offtrealment when secured-the
tyranny, oppression and cruelty that fol-
lowed-lhe condition of other young wo-
men lhere-her own desperation and sue
cessful attempt to escape. Her book de-
serves the attentive perusal of every A
merican, and is published testimony
harmonizing in most remarkable man
ner with those that have escaped from
similar prisons. . .4... ......
That such prisons are sanctioned by
the Church of Rome is reproach and
scandal 10 her morals. That any free ma.
lion should permit them, without at least
the striclesl scrutiny, and under the most
rigid law, is blot upon it that she should
hasten to remove. .'' d."
In series of letters to T. Parkin Scott,

required attention on the partofhis Church
