Excerpt from An Inquiry Into the Catholic Truths Hidden Under Certain Articles of the Creed of the Church of Rome Having in a former publication on National Religion been led to consider the encroachments of the Church of Rome, 1 ventured to suggest, that in compensation for the injuries we have received we might possibly extract some good from a patient investigation of the pecu liarities of her creed. I then illustrated the mode of obtaining that good by showing that there appeared to be a truth hidden under the dogma of Supererogation. The present Work pretends to be little more than a series of the same illustrations; it will however com prise all the peculiarities of the Romish Faith as they are contained in the Twelve last Articles of Pope Pius's Creed; and as these Articles are professedly gathered from the Decrees of what is called the Council of Trent, I have made such use of the proceedings of the Council, as is necessary to explain the intent of each Article in the Creed.
