FIRST HISTORICAL TRANSFORMATIONS OF
CHRISTIANITY. From the French of Athan-
ase Coquerel, fills. By E. z. Evans Professor
of Modern Languages and Literature in the
University OF Michigan-B William
V. Spencer.
This excellent translation of one of the most
thoughtful and carefully prepared works of the
learned and able writer will be cordially wei
coined in this country. NJ Coquercl, who ded-
icates his book to the pastor Martin Paschoud
as tribute of reverence and gratitude fer the
lltter's services and sacrifices in the "holy
cause of Christian Liberty" commences by re-
jecting utterly the idea of the imnsuta5ility Of
any religion any human conception of religi-
Gus truth. Religion, according to his defini-
ton, is "the totally of tho real or imaginary
relations of the human soul to the Divinity
which it address" Every religion is being
transformed continually, in order to respond to
the spiritual wants of those who profess it; SO
long as it is really the belief of souls it becomes
transformed in spite of all that can be done to
keep it immutable He proceeds therefore to
deneate, not, as some have chosen to express
it, the Development of Christianity, but its
transformations. The origin, according to his
view, of the chief existing divisions of the
church is to be found in three great primitive
forms of Christianity, moulded by the mental
characteristics of three great apostles. The
theosophic Christianity of st. John, with his
doctrine of the Word made flesh, and with his
mystic language borrowed from the Platonists
of Alexandria, remained the Oriental form of
the religion of Jesus, and ended in the Greek,
or Orthodox church. Rome adopted Judaical
Christianity, the sacerdotal hierarchy of Israel,
its external cutus, its notion of sacrifice, ming
ling pagan with Jewish traditions; accepting
but partially the influence of st. Paul, she
preferred the more Judalzing Christianity of
st. Peter, and gradually formed the Catholi-
cism which arrogates to itself the title of Apos-
tohc, which is incontestably Roman. Finally,
Paul, in combating external and legal relig-
ion, in bringing Christianity back into the pro-
found domain of faith and conscience, became
the apostle of all Reforms in all epochs He is
the inspirer of ancient and modern Protes-
tantism, the father of all reformed churches

One of the most deserviI G enterprises de-
veloped in Portland within two years past is
the Soap manufacturing business, carried on
SO successfully by Messrs. Leathe & Gore.
When they commenced advertising in the
Spring of 1866 probably not more than one
person in five hundred in the State of Maine
knew anything about them. Now it is safe to
say there is not more than one in five hundred
who does not know of their business, while
large proportion of the people of the State are
using their Soap.
Their soap has proved good article. If
was as good before they commenced advertis-
ing it as it has been since. but. the people did
not know it. = 1'h g ~
Instead of sending drummers into all parts
of the State, they brought into use every
newspaper published in Maine. This was nd
is much'the cheapest way of introducing goods
it may not be the quickest, still tits the surest,
because enquiry and demand are created
among the people who are customers. When
his customers are daily inquiring for the
''steam refined SOAP" the storekeeper knows
they mean something, and if he does not at
once geta supply he is sure 20 lose something
So is it Of any other good article when it is
Among other enterprises is the Shoe manu-
ficturing business. We refer to A. Cushman
s. Co. who advertise in the Union. They make
their own goods; they make them here in the
State. Let them receive substantial, material
encouragement Let our retail traders visit
their store, enquire their prices. and thus

The business men and capitalists of Portland
have accomplished great deal within a few
years to build up the trade of their CITY, They
are still at work. They are not mean in the
expenditure of their money in opening com
munication by rail and steamboat to and with
the people in every section of Maine, who
evince any disposition to help themselves.
In evidence, witness the Portland and Ma
chias line. We wanted some easy and conven-
lent outlet by steam to western markets. Boss
ton kne,c it, but Boston felt sure of our trade,
hence she cared nothing for our accommoda-
ton or ecomfort. Boston did not help us to
a steamboat 07-Tfu, &. b. .if--.- ID -. .-
Portland knew our want. She showed her
good will, pluck and perseverance and risked
one hundred thousand dollars of her capital
with $4,000 added by our people, and by so
uniting We obtained beautiful steamer to
open the quickest, easiest aud best mode of
communication we ever had or can have for
years to come. Will not our people remember
Portland? t .eh a.#
