English Version of tile Rible.
As the subject of anew version is be
fore the people, we give the opinions of ;i
few great men in regard to the old :
Oelden says, “ The English translation
of the Eible is the best translation in the
world.”
Pocock, the highest authority in Ori
ental literature and languages, describes
our version as “ being so agreeable to the
original that we might well choose among
others to follow it. were it not our own.”
Dean Swift says, “ ! inn persuaded that
the translators of the Biblo were masters
of fin English style much fitter for that
work than any we see in our present writ
ings, which 1 take to be owing to the sim
plicity that runs through the whole.”
Bishop Lowth says, “ The vulgar trans
lation of the Bible is the best standard of
our language.”
Bishop Horsely observes—“ Their ad
herence to the Hebrew idiom is supposed
at once to have enriched and adorned our
language.”
Lord Monboddo—“ I hold the English
Bible to be the best standard of the Eng
lish language we have at this day.”
Bishop Middleton—“ The style of our
present version is incomparably superior
to anything which might be expected
from the financial and perverted taste of
our own age. It is simple, it is harmo
nious, it is energetic, and—which is of
no small importance—use has made it fa
miliar. and time lias rendered it sacred.”
i>r. hitaker states —“ It may bo com
pared with any translation in the world,
without fear of inferiority. It has not
shrunk from the most rigorous investisa
turn, and, in spite of numerous attempts
to supersede it, it has hitherto remained
unrivalled in the affections of the coun
try.”
Dr. Adam Clarke—“ For accuracy and
fidelity, competent judges allow that this
translation greatly exceeds all modern
versions, either English or foreign.”
decides, a learned and laborious Roman
Catholic, candidly admits —“If accuracy,
fidelity, and the strictest attention to the
letter of the text be supposed to consti
tute the qualities of an excellent version,
this, of all versions, must in general
be the most excellent. Every sentence,
every word, every syllable, letter, and
point, seem to have been weighed with
the nicest exactitude, and expresssed, ei
ther in the text or margin, with the great
est precision.”
I)r. Newman, whose curliest and purest
creed was drawn from it, thus writes of
it, ;ts if the miserable contrast to it pre
sented in the Douai and Kheims had
awakened all his better feelings, sympa
thies and recollections : “ Who will not
say that the uncommon beauty and mar
vellous English of the Protestant Bible
is not one of the greatest strongholds of
heresy (Protestantism) is this country ?
It lives in the ear like a music that can
never he forgotten, like the sound of the
church bell, which the convert hardly
knows how he can forego. Its felicities
seem to be almost tilings rather than mere
words. It is part of the national mind,
and the anchor of national seriousness.
The memory of the dead passes into it.
The potent traditions of childhood are
stereotyped in its verses. The power of
all the griefs and trials of a man is hid
den beneath its words. It is the repre
sentative of his best moments, and all
that there has been about him of soft,
and gentle, and pure, and penitent, and
good, speaks to him forever out of his
English Bible. It is his sacred thing,
which doubt lias never dimmed, and con
troversy never soiled. In the length and
breadth of the land there is not a Protes
tant with one spark of religion about
him whose spiritual biography is not in
his Saxon Bible.”
Trench, who quotes and admires these
words of Newman, himself a master of
the English tongue, speaks of our version
as “having the happy wisdom, the instinc
tive tact with which its authors have steer
ed between any futile, mischievous at
tempts to ignore the full rights of the
Latin part of the language, on the one
side, and on the other any burdening of
their version with such a multitude of
learned Latin terms as should cause it to
forfeit its homely character, and shut up
great portions of it from the understand
ing of plain and unlearned men.”
A Wife’s Prayer.
if there be anything that comes near
er to the iniploration of Ruthjjto Naomi
than the subjoined, wo have not seen it:
“ Lord, bloss and preserve that dear
person whom thou has chosen to bo 1113’
husband —let lii.s life be long and blessed,
comfortable and holy; and let me also be
come a great blessing unto him, and t
sharer in all his sorrows, a meet helper in
all the accidents and changes in this world,
and make me amiable and forever dear to
him ! Unite his heart to me in all the
dearest love and holiness, and mine to
keep him in all ungentle ness, discontented
ne.'S and unreasonableness of passion and
humor, and make us humble and obe
dient, useful and observant, that we may
delight in each other, according to the
blessed word, and both of us may rejoice
in Thcc, having our portion in the love
and services of God forever ! amen.”
COLUMBUS, GA„ SEPTEMBER 25, 1856.
Blaik nd White.
The Abolitionist journals affect to be
somewhat astonished that we advocate the
cause of Mr. Buchanan, who is supported
by the slave-owners, as they choose to
term the Southern interest. Let ns set
them right upon this much vexed ques
tion of compulsory labor, or as Mr. Fierce,
in his excellent inaugural, calls it, “in
voluntary Servitude.”
All labor, with a lew exceptional in
stances, is involuntary. We do not be
lieve the man exists who actually prefers
work to leisure, toil to pastime. Human
nature is eminently social. There are a
hundred bon v leant a to one misanthrope,
and there is the same proportion of men
who prefer ease and luxury, to out! who
loves to hoard up his gold. Thus it may
be confidently asserted that no man wil
lingly works, and all labor is consequently
involuntary.
We have no wish to say anything harsh
of manufacturers, but it seems to us that,
of the two systems, Southci n slavery is
preferable to Northern ! In both we be
hold advantages and disadvantages; the
Northern affords to the white laborer
choice of employment, employer, relaxa
tion, and, it must be admitted, choice of
starvation. The rate of wages is alto
gether beyond the control of the work
man, for competition has already decided
that point for him. He has Hobson’s
choice, to take the current rate or leave it
alone—in other words, to starve ! There
is no help, and however miserable the
rate, he has to submit. There is little
tree choice in this, for the necessities of
a family are more potent than the whip
of the overseer. Again, should the white
slave fall sick, he is at once discharged ;
for were the employer to pay him for
work not done, or, in other words, sup
port him while he was incapacitated by
disease, he would be raising the price of
his own article, and thus allow a meaner
man to sell cheaper, and cut him off from
his market. Thus philanthropy would be
ruinous to its unhappy votary, and soon
drive that virtue from the field, never
again to show its face, except as the pre
cursor of bankruptcy ! Self-preservation,
therefore, would soon leave competition
as the great tyrant, and render wages,
what they have ever been, the minimum
at which human life can be sustained.
Very evident is it, that ability to labor
is the sole bond between the Northern
master and his white slave ! Certainly,
without going into the abstract merits of
slavery, which is altogether beyond the
record, negro slavery has some advanta
ges. We have already shown that the
white man’s toil is as compulsory as that
of the negro ; for none, save the few who
are horn wealthy, qnn afford to remain
idle. In both cases, the Southern planter
and the Northern manufacturer fix the
rate of wages, but the negro has certain
advantages over his white fellow toiler,
since his employer, or owner, is bound,
both by law and interest, to take care of
him when lie is sick, and support his wife
and children. llc represents value in the
eyes of the Southern owner, and ho would
no more damage his health than he would
mutilate or destroy a thousand dollar bill.
This bond of sympathy does not exist in
the North. The link is broken the min
ute one is helpless.— Meagher'& u Irish

A letter in tins New Orleans Delta, dated
Marion, Texas, Sept. 4, says:
One of those revolting assassinations at
which the heart sickens, and which have be
come so common in these diva of enormity,
was committed in this county on the night of
‘he 2t>tli ult.
The victims were A. E. Moore, Esq., his
wife, and a lovely orphan girl, twelve years
old, who was, by adoption, one of the family.
They had just seated themselves at the supper
table in the entry of their house, when the
assassin, coolly fixing a rest for hi.s gun by
propping n board between the two stems of an
althen twenty steps from the table, and in full
view of his unsuspecting victims, discharged
at them a double barreled gun. At the first tire
Moore fell, his wife, who sat on his left, ex
clairnod, “Lord have mercy ! ” and at that in
stant received the contents of a second gun,
tired in quick succession. She fell instantly,
and the orphan girl, who was seated on Moore’s
right, and between Mr. Moore and the assas
sin, sprang into the house and called for cam
phor, hut before the servant could get to her
she was dead! Mr. Moore received three
shots in the head, and four in the right side of
the chest. Hist arm above the elbow was much
shattered, and the hand shot through, lie
lived a very few minutes, but never spoke.
Mrs. Moore receive four shots in the face, and
never seemed to have breathed after she fell.
A single shut struck the young girl a little to
thu left of the spine, passed through the heart,
and coming out at the left nipple, lodged in
her clothes. I have this shot in my posses
sion ; it is evidently a slug.
The Coroner’s inquest did not elicit anything
suflicient to found an arrest upon.
— — ——
The government of India has finally deter
mined to limit the practice of polygamy by
legislative enactments. Hiudooism is based
upon the theory that every man lias a son to
succeed him, and to perform those ("■remonics
i which, far more than any act of his own, se
cure to the Hindoo eternal bliss. The man,
therefore, whose wife is barren, or hears only
daughters, takes another wife. This will stiil
he permitted, but every other form of poly
gamy will be prohibited.
