Instead of the malefactor’s cross, the sponge of vinegar and hyssop and the other parapherna- Kia of death, we are greeted by « form of heavenly glory, @eountenance of lightning and raiment white as snow. ‘Shia, then, is the great anniversary of the Christian era, sand the churches of every denomination vie with each ether in testifying their joy and faith, ORIGIN OF THE NAME. ‘The English name Easter and the German Ost-rn have ‘Deen supposed by some writers to be derived from the mame of the feast of the Toutonic goddess Ostera (God- does of Spring), for which the early missionaries substi- ‘Pated the Christian festival. According to Adelung, the ‘word is derived from the old Saxon term oster, which signifies rising, because nature arises anew in the spring. ‘The early Christians differed im regard to the time of -eelebrating Easter. The churhes in the West ob- werved the nearest Sunday to the first day of the Jewish month of ‘Nisan, about the ‘Mame of the vernal equinox. The Asiatic churches, méopting the 14th of Nisan as the day of the crucifixion, eelebrated the festival of Easter on the third day follow- fing whatever day of the week that might be. Avery @erious dispute was the consequence, for some time Yhreatening a rupture between both sections, The ‘Council of Nice decided that Easter should be celebrated onthe first Sunday which happens upon or next after March 21, and if the full moon happen on a Sunday, Waster is the Sunday after. By this arrangement Eastor ‘may come as early as March 22 or as late as April 25. OLD CUSTOMS AT EASTER. ‘The primitive Christians very early on the morning of Raster saluted each other with the words, ‘Christ is wieen ;"’ to which the response was made:—‘‘Christ ‘is Yisen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.”’ The Greek ‘Gharch still retains this custom. In nearly all Christian Easter been celebrated the-evening in ¢he Laight street, of Varck mrest. ‘The Rev. ‘@. L.

All the arms shipped by water have been landed safely in Mexico and are now out of reach of the French; ‘but about three thousand five hundred muskets, intended for the use of the liberals in Sonora, have been ordered tobe stopped in Arizona by General McDowell, who is now on the frontier. The hope is entertaincd, however, that they will be got over, notwithstanding. This action of General McDowell, in face of the fact that his order forbidding the transportation of arms across the frontier had been virtually countermanded by the War Depart- ‘ment, causes no little unfavorable comment here.
