ENCOURAGED by the reception given to the Con- ferences on JESUS CHRIST and Gop, the translator _ offers another volume of the great Dominican’s works, # anticipating the pleasure of publishing the whole series in the same form. Laster Week, 1872. es DECLARATION. ~~ ALTHOUGH I have constantly taught under the authority and in presence of the Archbishop of Paris, and my doctrine has never been criticised or called in question by them; although that same doctrine, published by the press, has excited neither reproach ~ nor discussion, yet, lest in treating so many theological X questions some involuntary error may have escaped me, and this I must and do readily presume from my weakness, I declare that I submit my Conferences to the Catholic Church, whose son I am; and, in particular, to the Holy Roman Church, the mother and mistress of all Churches, wherein resides the plenitude of the authority founded upon earth by our Lord Jesus Christ. I also declare that I do not acknowledge the pretended reproductions of my Conferences which have been made by various periodicals, whatever be Vill Declaration. their form or name. I once more protest against that violation of literary rights whose result is to place under the name of a preacher, discourses imperfectly reported amidst an immense auditory, and no less imperfectly corrected by the authors of such specu- lations. Should the doctrine contained in these publications be attacked, I decline the responsibility thereof as of a work which is not mine, and for which I can be held accountable only by a violation of all right and equity. FR. HENRI-DOMINIQUE LACORDAIRE, Prov. des Fr. Précheurs. Nancy, at the Convent of Notre-Dame-du-Chéne, the 15th October, 1851.
