Origin of the Weekday Names

By Editor

When a person becomes enlightened upon the Sabbath question, and sees what work heathenism and popery have made, or attempted to make, with this institution, one of the most natural questions to follow is in regard to the other days of the week, especially in reference to the origin of their names. Something has been published on this from time to time in the REVIEW; but as this is not readily accessible to new subscribers, and several have of late asked information in reference to it, we this week publish an article giving quite full testimony on the subject.
