ease, known as venerial, in any form, you can
be cured II care not in what stage 1t may pre-
sent itself, whether primary, secondary or ter
tiary). without taking one solitary Erain of
medicine. After ten years Of close investiga-
ton and practical experience, am convinced
that internal treatment, for the purpose Of ei-
fecting permanent cure Of syphilitic diseases
Is useless, and, that in a large proportion Of
cases, il absolutely does more harm than good
While under my method Of external mcdica-
cation. which is pleasant and agreeable 10 the
patient, i defy competition with any other
method known To he medical profession, for
speedy and permanent cure-which guarantee
in all cases. In making this important fact
known TO the public, wish 70 state that am
a regular practitioner Of medicine that i an
a graduate Of the Medical Department Of the
University Of Louisville. ky., and that my
method Of treating those diseases has cost years
Of deep study and close observation.

ON the Dangers 90 Rome.
BELOVED BRFTHRFN-The Catholic
world is well aware how many times we
have had 10 deplore and reprove the
grievous wrongs and grave injuries the
Subalpine government has, in defiance Of
all divine and human rights, and without
regard TO ecclesiastical censures and pen
allies. inflicted for 4 number Of years on
the Catholic church, on us and this Apos~
tolic See, on the bishops, on the conser
Grated ministers, on the religious orders of
both sexes, and on other pious institutions.
The came government does not only OPP
press and continually reduce the church
by issuing orders which we have con-
demned for being contrary to the authority
Of this Church, but it has gone SO far in its
acts Of injustice as 20 dare 10 propose, APP
prove, sanction and promulgate a sacri-
legious law, which has within its own ter
ritory as well as the one usurped BY it, de-
prived the church Of all its property, to
the great detriment of civil society, and
has appropriated it. for its own use, and
ordered the sale Of the sans Ii must be
clear to everybody how unjust and cruel is
a law which defes the inviolable right of
property which the church claims Nv vir-
tue of It's divine institution, law which
tramples on the rights of nature and all
divine aud human rights generally,
a law by which the members Of
the clergy, who have such great claims on
the gratitude Of Catholicism and civil So
ciety, and the virgins conseerated to God,
are reduced 10 the grestest misery and to
beggary. In this distress of the Church,
and with the overthrow Of all the rights OF
the Church before us, we cannot assuredly
remain silent, for it is duty imposed upon
Us, by our apostolic ministry, to defend and
avenge the cause Of justice with the
greatest perseverance,. This is the reason
why we elevate our voice in your imposing
assembly and reprove with our apostolic
authority the law in question, why we con-
denim il, aud declare il annulled and with
out any value. May the authors and evil
doors know that they have exposed them
selves 20 the ecclesiastical penalties and
censnres which the sacred canons, the apps.
toilc constitutions, the DEGREES of the gen
eral councils declare lpse fac1o TO be in
hicted on those who violate the rights of
the Church and usurp its property. May
they tremble and be afflicted with salutary
awe, those inveterate enemies of the
church may they be convinced that God.
