A correspondent at Rome reports that
the progress Of Catholicism in the
United states has induced the Pope to
arrange for the complete organization Of
the hierarchy aud the more intimate
union with Rome. New bishoprics
will soon be created and the establish
ment Of the society Of Jesus will be
more satisfactorily organized. The dog
mas Of Romanism hold in thraIl more
intelligent persons than all other super
stitions put together. Careful educa-
tion, uuremitting attention by the
church to her children from babyhood
is the secret Of her power. Not being
allowed to think for themselves, from
earliest recollection church dogmas be-
come as much an inheritance as the
blood that flows through their veins.
