It is as 'follows: c. Wo hold, in the Ianguigo of tho thirty-fourth article of -rebgtOaVthat "every particular or nation? al church hath" authority' to ordain; chango and abolish ceremonies Or rites'of tho church, ordained/ only bv man's authority, so that all things be dona? to edifying," and also, m the language .of the saino urtielo", that "it is .not necessary that traditions and ceremonies be in all placea ouo, or utterly liltq.u for at all times they have boen diverse, and.xmwJJe " changed according to tho diversity of ?ourrhri??.. time*, and mon's manners, so th at-no thinp'&cdaic cd against God's Word;" and also, j^hat .'thi^'chUrch was duly organized as a '^articolax^ancl national church" in communion, with .the Universal or floly Catholic and Apostolic Church ofvChrist, and that this organization, whioh. took place immediately, after thoAmerican Bo volution,was settled under tho careful diroctiJ? and adrice, rind with the cordial co-operation oi godly, well-learned and j?stly-ven eia'cd divinos, who were well ncquaintod with tho nistory of the Church of EnKlanuboforo and since l?or blessed reformation, and who thoroughly un? derstood what was and is s^ill roquired by tho peculiarities of this country aud its people. Wo hold, thereforo, that tho ceremonies, rites and worship then established, ordained and ap? proved bv common authority, as set forth in tho Book of Common Prayer of this Church, are the law of tho Church, which every bishop, presbyter and deacon of tho same has bound himself by subscription to tho promise of conformity, in arti I clo 7 of thc constitution, to obey, observo and fol? low ; and that no strange <_r foreign usages should bo introduced or sanctioned by tho private judg? ment of anv member or members of this Church, olprical or lav. Wo farther hold, that while this Church is "fai from intending to depart from tho Church'OfEng land in any essential point Al doctrino, discipliu? or worsliip, or further than local circmnstances ro quire," it yet has its peculiar place, character am duty asa'' particular and national Church ;" am that no prayer book of tho Church of England, ii the reign of whatever sovcreing set forth, and n< laws of tho Church of England have any force ? law in this Church, such as can be justly cited i defenco of any departure from tho cxpross law c this Church, its liturgy, its dicipline, rites an' usages. . . .- ""'"', And wo thereforo consider that in this parncius national church sny attempt to introduoo into th public worship of Almighty God usages that hav noverbcon known, euch as the use of incense, an tho burning ot lights in the order for the holy con munion, reverences to the holy table or the eh monts thereon, such as indicate or imply that tb sacrifice of our divine' Xiord and -Saviour "one offered" was not a "full, perfect and sufficient sacr ncc, oblation and satisfaction, for the sins of tb whole world;" the adoption of clerical habit hithertcuinknown for materia! alterations of thoi which have been in uso since the establishment . our Episcopate, is an innovation which violates tt discipline of the church, "offondech against i commofiSjrder, and hurteth tho authority of ? magistrate and woundeth the consciences of tl weak brethren." -. J Furthermore, that We be not misunderstood, 1 it be noted that we include in these .censures : departures, from ibe laws; rubrics - arid .setllt orderlof thiB church; as -well by defect a?- by e cess of observance, designing to maintain m i integrity the sound scriptural and primitive, an therefore, the Catholic and Apostolic spirit of tl '.Book of Common Prayer. . .

Among the chief points of excslleece of the Chicker? ing Pianos, of which apeak the renowned artists in their congratulatory testimonials to the Messrs.
