Let ail who truly and i from their souls desire that hcligion and society defended by human intellect and I ! ! literature should flourish, strive by their ' liberality to guard and protect the Catholic press, and let every one in pro. j portion to his income support them with tits money and influence, for to those who devote themselves to the Catholic press we ought by all means to bring helps of this kind, without which their industry will either have no results oi" uncertain and miserable ones.
