UfotcltotßUA POSSIBLE BASIS OF UNION IN THE LUTHERAN OHUROH. The basis of tho Missouri Synod embraces the unqualified subscription of all the Sym bolical Books of the Lutheran Gburch, so interpreted as to brand as heretics all who belong to ether denominations, and who do not so receivo them, and from whose mem bers, therefore, fellowship in the Lord's Sup per is to be withheld, and to, whose minis ters an interchange of pulpits is to hedenied. That this is a'fair representation of the basis of Missouri, their own words, as -printed in our columns, abundantlyprove. And that they really aipi at unif,iDg the Lutheran Church in America on such a basis, and hope to secure it, their .origin, their declarations, and their efforts attest, ~ The means through which they baye propagated their senti ments, and carried? forward their; work, are their religious,,ja,ufpals,,u.udi public conferenr ces.

The General Synod was organized “for the promotion of brotherly lurid, to tph furtherance of Christian cohoord, opd to the firm establishment a : nd continuance of the unity of the Spirit, in the bond of, peace And, in accordance with thU aesigri, its con stitution forbids the adoption of ;any,6ucn ; confessional test, as would be calculated “to burden the consciences ofthe brethren” by human jir'escripiicJhs,'liUd, at the same time, enjoins the duty of observing the signs- Of the times, and improving theni'to the furtherance of Christian Union;.
