First sentence: THE Letters Apostolic of Pope Pius IX., which purport to restore the Episcopal Hierarchy in England, have excited so much astonishment, and awakened so much indignation among all classes of her Majesty's subjects, that, it may be presumed, no apology will be needed for inviting the attention of the English reader to the argument contained in the following pages; more especially as "an appeal to the reason and good feeling of the English people" has been put forth by Cardinal Wiseman, as if there were not just grounds for the national dissatisfaction.
