at the right hand of gm This Jesus , who was the foundation of the hply prophets and apostles , ia our foundation ; and we believe there is no other foundation to be laid but that which is already
laid , even Christ Jesus ; who tasted death for every man , shed his blood for all men , is the propitiation for our sins , and not for ours only , but also for the sins of the whole world . "

Orthodoxy of Irish Quakers . THE following assertion of soundness of faith on the part of certain Quakers is from the Waterfard Chronicle , of Nov . 6 , for which we are indebted to some unknown friend iii Ireland . Wejpresutn e the subseribers are Plain Friends , and mean to inform and not deceive their countrymen , but we must tell them , if we can reach them , that there is not a syllable af their creed which many Unitarians could not repeat with perfect good faith .
To the Editor of the Waterford Chronicle * In consequence of certain allusions to the Society of Friends , called Quakers , that appeared in two of the Waterford Newspapers of the 30 th of last month , calling ill Question the faith and belief of
that Society m the Divinity and Manhood of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christy we request the insertion of the following declaration , as given forth in the year 1671 , and which continues to be the faith &m& belief of the . Society to the present time .

"We own and believe in the only wise , omnipotent and everlasting God , the creator of all things in heaven and earth , and the preserver of all that he hath made ; who is God over all , blessed for ever ; to whom be all honour , glory , dominion , praise and thanksgiving , both now and for evermore ! And we own
and believe in Jesus Christ , his beloved and only-begotten Son , in whom he is well pleased , who was conceived by the Holy Ghost , and born of the Virgin Mary ; in whom we have redemption through his blood , even the forgiveness of sins ; who is the express image of the invisible
God , the first-born of every creature , by whom were all things created that are in fieaven and in earth visible and invisible , whether they , be thrones , dominions , principalities or powers - all things were created by him . And we own and believe that he was made a sacrifice for sin , who
fenew no sin , neither was guile found in Ms mouth ; that he was crucified for us in the flesh , without the gates of Jerusalem * and that he was buried , and rose again the third day by the power of his Father , for opfr justification ; and that he ascended up into , hfiaviiny and now sitteth
