Excerpt from The Presbyterian Quarterly and Princeton Review, 1876, Vol. 5 Among the treasures preserved in the Library of Lane Semi nary, is the original draft of what is widely known as the AU burn declaration. More than thirty years after its prepa ration, just when the separated Presbyterian Churches were happily uniting, this interesting historical document was pre sented to the Institution by its author, the venerable baxter dickinson, D.D. It was also accompanied by valuable memo randa with respect to its authorship, and to the' circumstances which occasioned its preparation. Its contents have at various times been made public through the press, and have recently been incorporated under another name in the Presbyterian Digest. Its doctrinal quality and its important historical rela tions to the Presbyterian Church, both as separate and as united, are such as justify its further introduction to public notice in the columns of our denominational review; What will be at tempted in the present article, is a narrative of the origin of this declaration, an analysis of its contents, and a brief discussion of its doctrinal significance and value, as one among 'the inter esting memorials of our beloved Zion.
