Methods of the Romish Church
By Editor
We give in the Historical Department of this number, an important article on the Methods of the Romish Church. Let none fail to read it. The influence of the movements there pointed out, is destined to be felt in this country ere long. From extracts we have recently given in the Review, the reader has doubtless marked the lenient and favorable tone of public men and journals toward Roman Catholicism. The influence of this power is already seen in many cities where the elections are entirely controlled by the Romish element, and still further in the enormous appropriations of money by the legislature of the State of New York, to Catholic institutions, to the entire neglect of similar ones controlled by Protestants. What mean these sudden concessions and this obsequiousness to this foreign, Anti-Christian, power? It is full of significance, and points to the no distant fulfillment of Rev. xiii, 14-17.
