The Papacy; Its Position, Policy, and Prospects.—No 4.

It is further noteworthy that this whole scheme of the subjugation of Great Britain to the Vatican is led by the Jesuits. So Dr. Manning lately assured us. This body is again all-powerful in the church of Rome. Even the Pope must obey them. They walk to and fro with silent foot in our country; they enter our houses, corrupt our families, teach in our schools, write articles in our newspapers, create strifes in our churches, preach evangelical sermons in our pulpits, and in a hundred ways urge onward the work of subjugating Great Britain, and through Britain the world, to the yoke of the Papacy. The latest news from Rome is that the newly-erected bishoprics in India are to be filled with Jesuits.
There remains but one other statement, and it is, perhaps, the most distressing and humiliating of all. This vast propaganda is fed by our own money. The sum total of grants from Great Britain now given for popish uses year by year, is one million two hundred thousand pounds. That one million two hundred thousand pounds we give for our own undoing.
