Easter is the festival commemorating the
resurrection of Jesus Christ Good Fri.
day being the day of the crucifxion, the
third day, on which the release from the
grave took place. is celebrated by the Eas-
ter ceremonies. The name of this festival
originated from the notion that Christ was
typifed by the paschal lamb, ordained by
Moses in the Feast of the Passover. The
Latin word is PaScha, and the French pa
queS. Among the Greeks and Roman
Catholics, Easter is the most Joyful festival
of the church. 1t is also observed with
great solcmnity by the English Church, the
Lutheran, and the European Calyinists.-
Tho Greek and Roman Catholic Churches
did not celebrate it at precisely the same
time. While some christians, were mourn
ing in commcmoration of the passions, 9TH
crs were rejoicing in the triumphant res.
direction of the Saviour. In the second
century the dispute became warm. The
Eastern Church would not discontinue the
celebration of the feast at the same time
with the jews, while the western Church
insisted upon celebrating it without the
paschal lamb, and beginning it on Sunday
the day of Christ's resurrection.
! 1t was fully settled by the Council of
Nice, in 325, that the feast should be held
on the Sunday following the first full moon
after the vcrnal equinox, and not on the
same day with the Jews. The English
name EaSier, and the German Osterh, are
most probably derived from the name OF
the feast of the Tcutonic goddess OStcra.
which was celebrated by the ancient Sax
ons early in the spring, and for which as
in many other instances, the first mission
aries wisely substituted the christian feast
of Easter. Adelung derives ONern, and
Easter from the old words oSter, os.en.
which signifies rising, because nature ari-
scs anew in the spring. This is also the
derivation Of East, in German, oItcn.-
Easter fires, Easter eggs, and many other
customs and supcrstitions, have all their
origin from the ancient heather feast
which as the celebration of tho rcsurrec.
ton Of nature from the grave of winter
was very appropriately succeeded by tho
festival which commentaries the resurrcc
ton Of the Saviour Of the world.

That no persons were allowed the use of

unfounded. We cordially invite every
