THE DARK AGEs.-For thousand years
the Romish priesthood ruled the civilized
world; and this long period is justly termed
the dark ages of modern history. The gloom
of superstition clouded the minds of men, and
priestcraft ground them to the dust. During
the historic period of the worlds existence
there is no record of time of such unmitiga-
ted gloom. But even in this dread night of
history the genius of man was busy with inven-
tions-not to promote and increase the com
forts, conveniences and happiness of mankind !;
but instruments of torture, inventions to cause
the most exquisite pain, to rack with agony
the limbs of all who dared to think in opposi-
tion to the DEGREES of Rome. At last came
the printing press and Martin Luther, and then
the dawn appeared.

his wife every month, just before he went to
