compiled by the Apostles themselves.
1t can be traced in all the primitive
! churches to the year .371I, whenit stood
as it now stands. Second, the Nicene
creed. so. called from being compiled
by the first Ecumenieal Council held
at Nice. All evangelical bodies .fecog-
nize these articles as coming from the
scriptures, and embrace therein their ar
ticles of. faith. We believe in one cath
olic church, one baptism, that is one
form of words communion of saints,
,forg iveness of sin, resurrection of the
dead, the judgment, etc. To-, &. .'....:.
All that God has revealed is for mans
highest good, but what is plainly reveal
ed should only be necessary for
membership in ChIist's church We
ask others to take. those creeds as we
took them, believing that they embody
all that is necessal y for salvation. This
is the basis on which the Anglican
church. of which ours is a branch,
stands ready to meet all christians.
This is the. creed of the vast majority
who have been called Christians for fif-
teen hundred years. Might we not adopt
the Apostolic creed as basis of church
membership, and the Nicean creed as a
basis of inter-communion, which we all
so much desire. 49,. 81 ~ tt-t-.-&t

some Essentials ia Religion.

The Rev. DR.. Harris, rector of Trinity
church, was announced to preach on
Sunday evening on the above subject.
It was intended, partially, as continual
ton of the previous Sabbath's sermon
in reference to the Evangelical Alliance
and the discussion awakened thereat in
regard to the differences in different
church bodies in regard to the essentials
of church membership.
The text was taken from the Acts of
the Apostles, 10th chapter and 31st
verse, which reads as follows
"And they said, Believe ON the Lord
Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved
and thy house. Il" -..-. ..I
The speaker said that in casting about
for a basis Of unity between church
bodies, we do not want glittering gener-
alities until defined in what direction to
get lasting basis of union. We all
agree. as to what is essential for final
salvation, for the words of the text
furnish a complete reply Faith in God
and obedience to His will, we. all regard
as. essential to salvation. We all agree
that repentance of sin, acceptance of a
Saviour, and the keeping of his COM
mands, are essentials of salvation. We also
agree that no man or body of men, in
short no one but God can decide whether
these. essentials are complied with or
not That the same. conditions should
be demanded to enter the church as to
enter heaven, is absurd, as God only can
decide whether the conditions are
complied with or not. The church is
not miniature heaven We hold that
babtism is essential to church member
ship. Without obedience to the plain
| will of God there can be no salvation.
I We all agree in regarding baptism as es-
sentiai to membership, but differ as to
the mode. and subjects. The difference
| in. views as to the. exact rotation of hap
tisin and the church does not effect the
question as now considered. We. agree
that no .unbaptized person can join

GREATEST ATTRACTION IN

IT Is WONDERFUL YOU WILL SAY so
WHEN YOU SEE 1T.
But il needs only word of explanation.
and you will see why 1t appears so. THIS
is oniys branch of the Boston house, and
many others in several cities of the Unit
ed States, which have been established
for years and afford the greatest facilities
for importing and buying goods directly
from the manufacturers, which are offer
ed at a very small commission above the
cost. This need not be said to those who
examine the stock, as it shows for itself.
Every one knows the price and can easily
compare it with the same goods in other
stores. The goods are warranted to be
exactly as represented.
The proprietors wish to say to the peo-
pie of Rutland and vicinity, that they
have established this store with the in
tentlon of making it a permanent bust
ness, and hope to receive your patronage
as long as you are dealt with squarely and
receive for your money just what is repre-
scented. It is impossible to explain the
stock of goods. il Is so extensive, and they
are obliged to ask you to call and exam
inc them, when the goods will be shown
with the greatest pleasure.

NEW JERSEY STATE TEMPERANCE ALLI.
AyCE.

Bright Hopes Held Out for the Future OF
the "Local Option Causc"-Vfce Presi-
dent Coifax Retreats from the Credle
Mobilier Committee to Address q Tenn.
pcrance Mass Meeting in Trenton.
The second annual convention OF the New Jersey
State Temperance Alliance was held yesterday at
Trenton. There full delegation from nearly
all the temperance organizations in the State pres
ent, and harmony and unity Of sentiment seemed
to prevail throughout the proceedings. Mr.. George
sheppard Page. the President made the opening
address, which was loudly applauded at intervals
during Its delivery. He alluded to the cause OF
local option and said that its adoption throughous
the State was near at hand, Notwithstanding the
opinion given against 1t by an eminent legal gem
tleman. who at present holds dignded position
in the State. There was no question bout it this
year, as OF the thirtyf0ur members OF the Legisa-
ture who voted against 1t last year but seventeen
OF them were reelected. He maintained that their
interests were great throughout the State, and
that they were fast growing. He said that half OF
the brewers were on their side, and that in short
space OF time they would have larger accession
to their cause. They remembered right well how
the Camden petition was received and refused LAST
year, which was and would be the means OF
giving them renewed energy In the future ana,
with the help OF Providence, the demon
humanity would be saved from It's ruinous effects
Mr.. Page concluded his address with an eloquent
peroratOn, alter winch the Treasurer's report was
received and adopted, showing that the receipts
during the year amounted to s4902 o.; the liabili-
ties 81 ,062 49, and the net balance hand sl4 81.
The Rev. p. Coombe, the Corresponding Secretary.
read his first annual report In which he enume-
rated the number OF sermons and lectures he gave
the past year. and showed to the Convention how
his services had only cost the Alliance the sum OF
1902 %. Mr.. Stearns, Corresponding Secretary OF
the National Temperance Alliance, made
short address, in which he enlightened
the audience as to the successful workings OF the
temperance organizations In New York. He re,
commended that temperance library should be
In every lodge and organization, and that tracts
should be scattered around like the leaves OF tho
forest. The Committee on Nominations reported
the reelection OF the President, Mr. Page and ono
vice president from each OF the counties In the
state among the latter being the name OF the Hon.
Mr.. Borton, OF Burlington, member OF the present
Legislature. W. b. Russell, OF Newark, was chosen
Treasurer and the present secretary, Rev. J. X.
Dunlap, was reappointed. mass meeting took
place In the evening, which was addressed by Vice
President Colfax. Much enthusiasm was mani
tested.

We thlnkothis good bill. Similar action was
taken year ago by the State OF Georgia with ex-
cellent effect. Her financial status was clearly
ascertained and the State has moved on with
much more satisfaction ever since. OrdinartN
such a course would be work OF SUPERB ogation
But when State has been bedevilled several years
by an infamous government as this one has BEEN
things get into such muddle that 1t takes
prodigious efforts and world OF pains TO
extricate It, 1t almost loses its identity
We venture TO say that few men, even, or
the highest intelligence and closest attention and
study, can get at the real condition of the State
debt ana its 1nances. So much has been hid out
Of view, so much bungled mangled and befogged,
that 1t has become worse Tor mud than Serbonian
bog and for Nth than the Augean stables. Only
experts, devotIng their labors especially to the
task, can do the herculean work OF clearing 1t or
the one or cleansing IL OF the other. Everything
depends, OF course, upon the men whe are to be
appointed. They Should be free from parHsan
spirit not mixed up in any way with matters COM
mitted 10 them for investigation and research, OF
unquestOned integrity and OF high financial ability
II they should also be men OF address and cuItiva-
ton, combining happily the S,lrUtter IN mode with
the or1tef IL 70. 1t would all be 50 much the better.
