To d.iy is known throngltont all
Christendom as Ester Sunday.
This, althonsth it is what is known as
a moveable feast is kept as tha anni
versary of the resurrection of Jesus
Christ. Amongst the histories, cus
toms and traditions of the day these
which are ennmerated below are
some. Like ninny another thing
which is revered by the Christian
world, the name Easter is said to
it3 name from the old Saxou tleiry
e. It is otherwise asserted Hurt
it obtains, its origin from the word
Osten which signifies rising. Of the
establishing of the time when East
er is to be held the books furmsu
many intersting statements. The
prayer book says: " .cosier aay i
always the first Sunday after the fnll
moon whii-h happens npon or next
after the 21st of March; and if the
fnll moon happens on a Sunday,
Easter-day is the Sunday after." It
seems that the manner of determin
ing the time of the occurrence of
Easter-day is the result of a quarrel
which took place between the
. , We9tern churches-
Jews ami Armenians of
holding to the
the Asiatic Church holding to the
celebration of Christ's resurrection
on the recurrence of tbe Jewish
Passover or Nisan; and the Romish
authorities insisting npon a different
dav. Thus it happened that the fcm
peror Contantine at the tune ol tlie
holding of tha Ecnraenical Council
of Nice (A. D. 325) took steps m
Ue matter wuicu rcunct

shall be taken for tbe mil oi tne
moon of Nisan.
3. Tbat the Lord's day next fol
lowing that full moon be Easter
Sunday.
4. Bnt if the full moon happen
npon a Sunday, Easter-day shall be
the Sunday after.
Subsequent to this time a " bnll "
went forth from the Vatican decree
ing that, "If any bishop, priest or
dicon celebrate the Holy Feast of
Easter-day before the vernal equinox.
as the Jews do. let htJl be deposed.
When in Eugland, after these E :n-
menical dogmas and Pope's bulls
l,ul been uromnlgated, a prevailing
ignorance of astronomy and the con
sequent coufnsion as to the exact
method and occurrences of chronol
ogy, differences arose regarding the
tim for celebrating Easter-dav, a
discission took place before Oswy.
iTinr of Northnmhna regarding this
point ; the dispntants Wing Bishop
Coleman of the then Bnttsb ciinren
.n.l Wilfrid, a young Saxon who
had been to Rome and obe ved the
way thiuga were done there. In
this discussion Wilfrid qnoted. as a
clincher for his side of the case tbe
following language of Christ to
Peter : "Thon art Peter, and npon
this rock will I bnild my Church,
and the gates of hell shall not pre
vil arainyt it ; and to thee will I
rive the kevs of the Kingdom of
Heaven." Turning to Coleman the
King asked: " Coleman, is that so;
did the Lord talk that w y to Peter?"
Even bo, Oh King." replied the
Bishop. "Then," said the King.
"I tell yon plainly I shall not stand
opposed to the doorkeeper ol me
Kingdom of Heaven. I desire as
near as possible to conform to ins
notions : lest by o 'ending him who
i T klinnld. when I
nresented myself at the gate. nni
that there was an insurmountable
nbiection to my la-ing admitted
there f This settled the question ,
und ever since that time E-ister day
has been observed as by the rnles or
the Council of Nice. We may as
well add that on the coming of
Easter day depend all the moveable
feasts of the year. The cntom of
distribntingthe "pasche" or "pace
eggs is of very old dste ; and it seems
to have bad its earliest observance in
England iu Lancashire- There are
man v quaint old customs connected
i;n Easter-day ; bnt ' we have no
space for their enumeration.
