He translated a Latherau catechism. which ho edited in his awn name, dedicated to the kiug, ami recommended in the strongest terms as a treatise admirably adapt ed to improve the principles, as w ell as the morals, of the rising genera tion. The opinions, therefore, of the Primate were at this time perfectly Lutheran, and' although be after ward ebauged them in oue single poial, in other respects they remain ed unaltered. From the Lutberaus, who bad been his masters in theolo gy, be bad learned (one i>oiut only exoepted) almost every thing which be deemed great and good in refor- matioD, and with them he was de sirous of preserving, uot a servile, bat * liberal couformity. -To ascertain his peduliitr attach ments is to ascertain those of the Reformation; for under his direction, iiod with much of his individual aid, wore prepared the Offices of our church and the Articles of her creed. On the whole, therefore, the principles on which our lie forma tioa was conducted ought uot to re maia in doubt; they were manifestly Lutheran. With these the mind of him to whom we are chjelly indebted for the aalntary measure was deeply impressed, and, in conformity with them, was pur Liturgy draw n up, and the first book of our Homilies, ail that were at the time composed. U 0ur Reformers, indeed, had they been so disposed, might have turned their attention to the not el establish ment at Geueva, which Calvin bad jest succeeded in forming according to his wishes ; might have imitated in*. singular mstiUttimm and local .’.'♦jJWW ~ ^ ' If .rated its peculiar doctrines; but this they declined, viewing it perhaps as a faint luminary (for as sfich only mold it then have been contem plated) scarcely in the horizon of its celebrity. This they might have done, but they rather chose to give reputation to their opinions, aud stability to their system,‘by adopt ing, where reason permitted, Luthe ran sentiments and expressing thetn- «lves in Lutheran language. • Considering our articles, there fore, even in their rude outliue, but wore particularly in their perfect state, \re discover that, in various parts of their composition, Cranuier kept is view that boast of Germany and pride of tbe Reformation, the Confession of, Augsburg. . . . But todeseend into a minute comparison °* tbe two productions (the Thirty- nine Articles and the Augsburg Qon- i^ou) would lead me too far fro$n ln .v purpose; it seems sufficient to notice the fact of a mauifest resem blance between them, which in some instances amounts to a direct trans cript of whole passages; in others, to the adoption only of leading sen timents and! peculiar phraseology. ^Wl if upon one individual print, a plain deviation occurs, it should be r ®coUected that this is one of which riie author of the Augsburg Confes- 8 ton (Melancbthon) was liiinself sus pected. . I | 'Hitherto I have endeavored to “ftow with what principles our Ar- t, ^ e# Preserved a consonancy, as riiey were framed in tho reign of ward.

We perceive that in the first compilation many prominent passages were taken from tbe Augs burg, and in tbe second from the Wirtembnrg Confessionh, the latter uot being considered as a retraction of the former, but rather what is pro fessed to be, as a repetition and com pendium of it. These were tbe creeds of Lutherans. We have seen, likewise, that their sentiments were chiefly inculcated, and their example followed, in almost every preceding step of the Reformation. .“The origin of our Common Prayer is by no means dubious. Au abridg ment of the service of the Romish church, with such alterations and efiieudations as were judged requisite to purify it from error and supersti tion, became the Liturgy of the Lutheraus. Our own was modeled in tbe same way, being little more than a compilation of tbe ancient forms, selected with prudence, cor rected with judgment, aud arrauged with simplicity. In many parts of it our Reformers kept in view a work of a similar description, then recently drawn up by Melancbthon aud Buoer for the use of the Archbishopric of Co logne. From their work the services of our own church seem occasionally to have been derived. Our Offices bear evident marks of being freely borrowed from the Cologne Liturgy, literally imitating, but not entirely copying. It was not, however, itself original, but in a great degree bor rowed from a liturgy previously es tablished at Nuremburg. This ap pears from the epistles of Melanch- thon. ■* “The Form of Nuremberg to which Melanchthou alludes is contained in 1 the Ecclesiastical Regulations (Kit chen Ordnnng) of George, Marquis of Br-audenburg, which were publish ed in tbe year 1533, for the use of the Marquisate of Braudetihurg and the Burgrave of Nuremberg. Aud it should be remarked that the bap tismal service in this farm is taken word for word from that of Luliter in the second edition of his Taut Buchleiu. But, indeed, all the litur gical forms of the Lutheran church were grounded upon those of the Church of Rome, sometimes abridg ing and sometimes enlarging them, omitting what was deemed sii|>er-' stitious, and retaining what ap|>ear- ed unexceptionable, reforming but not annihilating them. The same may be said of our own Liturgy; so that to illustrate it by reference to more aucieut sources, is to illustrate it by that which never t eutered into tbe contemplation of those that com piled it. w —Lutheran Obuerref. — FOREIGN., Germany—Tbe Catholics are busi ly engaged in securing signers to petitions to the Diet asking that the Free-Masons be suppressed, ss their efforts endanger the Catholic Church, the State, tbe oonfiesskmal harmony, aud their existence is unlawful.

Free Conference in JfUmuri.—A conference of German and English Lutherans was held August 16th to 'the 20tb, in Gravelton, Wayne Co.. Mo. The object was tbe promo tion of the interests of the English Lutheran Church in the West. Pres ent were I^evs. P. C. Henkel and I. Moser with six lay delegates of the Tennessee Synod, Rev. A. Rader with three delegates of tbe Holston Synod, Prof. C. F. W. Waltber and Rev. Kleppisch of the Missouri Synod, ami Prof. F. A. Schmids of the Norwegian Synod. Prof. Schmids attended to the opening services in English. Prof. NYalther had pre pared 10 theses on tbe fundamental distinctive doctrines of tbe Lutheran church, which were thoroughly dis cussed. The necessity of organizing congregational schools was also con sidered, as also the question: What is to be done in order to seek to pro vide with the means of grace, and to form into congregations the many English speaking Lutherans who have moved West. Two young men ex pressed themselves willing to enter the Seminary in St. Louis. The English ministers present . formed themselves into the English Luthe ran Conference of Missouri, and a constitution was drawn up, which is to bo presented to the congregations for adoption. The Standard says; “The movement we regard as one of great imi>ortance for the upbuilding of our church in tbe West.” At some future day, when we h«3ve more leisure, a complete translation of the 16 theses, as given iu the Lutheraner,^ shall appear in the Visi tor Virginia.—Rev.
