Excerpt from Contemporary Portraits: Thiers, Strauss Compared With Voltaire, Arnaud De L'ari???ge, Dupanloup, Adolphe Monod, Vinet, Verny, Robertson The first part of the volume is devoted to subjects of general interest especially to a study of the Catholic crisis, as represented in some of the most eminent men of the Catholic Church. A careful consideration of the facts advanced seems to me to lead to two conclusions first, that the course pursued by the Ultramontanes is one fraught with danger to our social interests and secondly, that it is both un justifiable and unwise to attempt to combat Ultra montanism with its own weapons. It seemed to me opportune to draw attention to the testimony of a competent German writer - M. Geffcken - as to the inanity of the results of the Prussian Culturkampf, though directed by the first political genius of the age, and the strongest will the world has ever known.
