THE “Black” Pope is the term used for the General of the Jesuits, whose garb is black, while that of the Pope is white.
We welcome any trustworthy story of the Jesuits, and are thankful that efforts are made to supply the British public with information respecting these foes to liberty who have invaded our land, and who, under disguises, live in every circle; whether as clergymen, ministers or tutors, or valets, they are to be found, while the women do their deadly work as instructors of girls, patrons of different branches of learning, and as sick nurses and nursery maids! Miss Cusack describes the growth of Jesuit power and influence in this country. The latter part of the book is more striking than its opening. We subjoin one extract from the work: “The only loyalty which they allow to be preached is loyalty to the Pope, and even that is subjected to the will of the General of the Order. With all other authority they are openly or secretly at war. And this it is that makes the Jesuit so dangerous to the State or country in which he lives, and this is the reason why he has been expelled from so many Roman Catholic countries. . . . They rule by fear; but a day comes when men rise up against their excessive tyranny, and cast them out.”
We trust our readers will obtain the book.
