THE HISTORIAN AEREsY.
It Has Been In Existence for Nearly Fiji
teen Hundred Years.

The HISTORIANS, small community
of Christians established in Asia Minor,
in the environs of Mossul, have agreed,
says the Levant Herald, to embrace
Catholicism and join the Chaldeans.
The HISTORIANS and Chaldeans belong
to the same race. The patriarch Mar
Shimoun is the head of the HISTORIAN
church. His grace Mgr. Ella is the
spiritual chief of the Catholic Chal-
deans, who. speak the same language
as the HISTORIANS. For a long time
past an active correspondent had been
going on between the two patriarchs,
Mar Shimoqn, residing at Diaulamerg.
and Mgr. Ella at Mossul. 1 question
was fully discussed in thosa letters of
the union of the two communities,
which have almost the same religious
ties and, as said before, are of The same
acc and speak the same ltsaguage. The

of his life to exercise his spiritual
authority over the HISTORIANS, under
the jurisdiction of Mgr. Ella. Upon
his death no other HISTORIAN patri>
arch will be nominated, the re~
ligious affairs of the community
being administered by a vicar appointed
by Mgr. Ella or his successors. The,
vicar will be helped in his task by a.
council composed of notabilities of the
HISTORIAN community and he will be,
directly responsible to Mgr Ella and
his successors. This agreement has
been accepted by the two patriarchs
and the respective communities. The
two prelates were to have an interview
on the 27th ult. at Bessilza, village
situated between Mossul and Djoula-
merg, in order to fix upon the final CON-
ditions of the reunion.
The HISTORIAN heresy dates from the
fifth century, says st. James Gazette
(Londonl. Its author, or chief sup
porter, Nestorius, was bishop of Con-
5tantinople from 42S to 431. The,
heresy, which is based upon the, dis
tinction between the divine and the
human nature of Christ, consists in
denying that the Virgin Mary was the
mother of God. This doctrine was con-
demned by the third general council.
held at Ephesus in 491, and Nestorins
was deposed from his bishopric and
subsequently banished. Applications
for help and instruction were made by
the HISTORIANS to the late Archbishop
TAFT, and the present archbishop of
Canterbury sent mission in 1886 to ex-
pound the doctrines and ritual of the
established church. 1t would seem,
however, that they prefer those of
Rome.
