DOCTRINE AND GREEDS

The Eaatern Church a lopts the doctrinal decisions of the first seven (Eenmenical Councils, and holds that all these defini- tions and canons are sinply explanations and enforcements of the Niew Constanti- nopolitan creed and decrees of the firat Council of Nicea. The first four councils s¢ ttled the orthodex faith of the doctrines of the Trinity and of the Incarnation; the fifth supplements the decisions of the first | four; the sixth declared against Monothe-

letism, which asserted that Christ had but | one will in His two natures; the seventh sanctioned the reverence of images, The Eastern Church holds the Apostles’ Creed } and the Nicene Creed, with the exception of that clause which declares that the | Holy Ghost proceeds from the Son, which was not in the creed as originally drawn up by the Council of Constantino He but was afterwards inserted hy the Saste Church without authority. [t has seven sacraments, declares the Eucharist to be an expiatory sacrifice, and believes the Body and Blood of Christ to be eub- stantially present in the Sacrament after the words of consecration. It disowns the authority of the Pope, and in controversies of faith acknowledges the infallibility of (Kecuminical Councils, It administers the Communion in both kinds, but toge ther, the bread being soaked in the wine and placed

Church, but these are rather excrescences,

Church. For many centuries the clergy have belonged almo-t entirely to the pea - ant clase, and are,as a rule, poorly edu- cated, and where ignorance is there must necessarily be superstition. As more at- tention is paid to the training of the clergy they will beco.ne more enlightened, and m their turn will enlighten their flocke. Then those dark and dumb ceremome whick now obscure the light of the Gos- pel will bedone away, and Anglican and Eastern Churches, re-united, will give a grand impetus to wards that unity of Christendom, for which we should all y devoutl pray.

DISCOUNTS EXTRAORDINARY.

Owing to the death of our senior partner, MR. HENRY MORGAN, and the consequent re-arrangement of the firm, we intend making an extraordinary effort during the month of January to reduce our stock to the lowest possible point,

|that everything may be in good shape for starting the new

business in February. To accomplish this, we have decided to make even greater sacrifices than has been our custom in the Annual January Sale. These sacrifices wiil be in the form of discounts, and will commence TUESDAY MORNING, 2nd January, and continue till the end of the month. HENRY MORGAN & CO..
