Christian Witness gives extracts OF an
address made March 10th by DIR. Dol
linger, the leader of the opponents OF
the dogma Of Instability. His position
is that q Council has no right to pro-
mitigate new dogmas. but only to enun-
ciate the old faith. He says no case IL
known where a council has announced
a dogma except by general consent. The
very fact that the present question has
SO long been mooted one is proof that
it is not part of the old revelation, and
that no council is competent to add it to
the received creed. Besides, the substi-
tuition Of the Instability Of an individual
for that OF the Church at large is no de-
velopment Of doctrine; it is as truly
revolution rs would he the substitution
of monarchy for republic.

mocratic majority of 1879. as the vote

IMPROVEMENT. OF Nor 2 BY order Of

IMPROVEMENT, or NoT!-By order Of
the County Commissioners the old jail
building has been transformed into a
building suitable for grand jury room.
and the old grand jury room in the
Court-House, is being made part OF the
clerks Office, by tearing away the parii-
tion wall between them. The enlarge
ment of the clerk and Auditors office
has long been an imperative necessity.
as is also the supplying of witness, Il
brary, Judges, Petit Jury, and consuita-
ton rooms to the Court House. This
can all be accomplished by building an
addition of about thirty feet to the west
end of the house, which Mr.. HochgesanS
offered to do and finish for about $4,000
land the question is whether the patch
ling which ia being done, at cost OF
probably one-fourth OF that sum. is an
Improvement. We think not, under th'
circumstances.
