NEW TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE. " Who kills a man kills a reasonable creature, Ged'i image ; but ho who destroys a good book, kills reason itself, kills the image of God, as it were in the eye. Many a man lives a burden to the earth ; but a good book is the precious life-blood of a master-spirit, embalmed and treasured up on purpose to a life beyond life. It is true, no age can restore a life, but revolutions of ages do not oft recover the loss of a rejeated truth, for the want of which whole nations faro the worse. We should be wary, therefore, what persecution we raise against the living labours of public men, how we blight that seasoned life of man, preserved and stored up in books ; since we see a kind of homicide may be thus committed, some times a martyrdom; and if it extend to the whole impression, a kind of massacre, whereof the execution ends net in the slaying of an elemental life, but strikes at the ethereal and fifth essence, the breath of reason itself, slays an immor tality rather than a life."—Areopagitica, Milton. To COILRESrONDENTS.—" The Bible.—We have been so earnestly exhorted to persevere in opening our Paper to the dis cussion of the merits of the New Translation, as a question of the utmo t importance to the interests of mankind, that we feel it to be our duty to comply. Our Correspondents, therefore, shall be attended to-in turn, as we have reastetfrbilieve that the Heads of the Church have already directed their attention to the controversy."—The Sun, London, Saturday, Dec. 5, 1818. " Surely the elevated patronage which this New Translation has deservedly obtained, should operate as a general example and incitement. Shall the Bible, with its many acknowledged errors, descend to posterity polluted with all those errors ; er shall it be transmitted to the latest generations of mankind, with as much of ids original purity as it is possible for human sagacity, knowledge, and diligence to elucidate and confir m ."

"We observe in a pamphlet, Anti-Deist,' published by Mr. Bellamy, that Exodus, c. iii, v. 22, is a gross mistransla tion. He notices a number of other errors in the translation of the Bible now in use, equally hostile to the true meaning of the writers. It is not a little curious, that many of these mis translated passages, which give meanings in direct opposition to the real ones, have been as stoutly defended by eminent theo logians as any in the whole took, and long commentaries have been written upon them, expressly to show their beauty and propriety."—The Examiner, Dec. 24, 1821.

Hebrew, Part, 7th, 1834, New Translation.—" If I were shapen in iniquity, or in sin, my mother had conceived me." Note.—Behold, I was shapen in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me. This verse, as it stands in the common version, is not consistent with the Scripture. The Divine com munication stands recorded in Gen. i. 23. anti God said unto them, be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. Now it must strike every reader with conviction, that as God created man to multiply and replenish the earth, he did not ordain man to be shapen in iniquity, nor to be conceived in sin. The Divine order for the multiplication of the human race is as holy now as at the beginning : it is pronounced to be superlatively good, Gen. i. 31., and this Divine order is sanctioned through out the Scripture, in all its purity, as at the beginning; con firmed by the Messiah, who said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me, for of such is the kingdom of heaven, Matt. xviii. 14. ; it therefore' ollsaws, that if man were shapen in iniquity, and coticeivedi i n, the Divine insti tution of marriage could not have been approved of by him.

DON MIGUEL'S DECLARATION.--(FrOM the Italian journal, entitled La Voce de la Verita, of the I 1 th instant.)—The King, my master, being informed of the un favourable effects which an article in the Allgemeine Zeitung, of March Bth, has produced on some of his faithful subjects, has been pleased to order me to declare that every thing therein contained, relative to the alleged tendency or disposition of his Most Faithful Majesty to abandon or renounce his claim to the throne of Portugal, and to sacrifice for money those rights which belong to him in virtue of the fundamental constitution of the kingdom and the will of his people, is evidently false, and fabricated for a purpose which is not perceived by those only who do not understand the prevailing revolutionary spirit of the present age. His Majesty is, therefore, desirous that this solemn declaration should, on his part, also be. made through tie medium of the press. This declaration will be ratified, should such a step appear necessary, by a new protest by his Majesty, declaring his determination never to abdicate even in the extreme case, when such an act, so contrary to the principles of honour, and the gratitude due..to hip ,faithful Sub.. jects, might seem imperative and indispensable.—Given at his Majesty's present residence in Rome, March 27, 1840.--Fua FORTUNATO, Archbishov of Evora. LONGEVITY.-1 here is now living at Black marston, Hereford, a female named Elizabeth Cooper, who is 101 years old, and yet retains full possession of her mental fa culties ; her memory is good, and she speaks of events that oc cured eighty years ago, with the most perfect recollection. Her sister, who was two years older than herself, died a short time ago. Such an instance of two sisters attaining this extreme old age, is perhaps unprecedented. A HINT.—(From a Correspondent of the Anti- Corn-Law Circular. ) — Wherever the gable end of a house, barn, or other out-office presents itself to:a turnpike-road or great thoroughfare, there ought to be an inscription upon it condemnatory of the starvation laws. The idea has occurred to me that there is not and cannot be a cheaper method of dif fusing information than the above. Whitewash a gable-end' and then in different coloured letters, a foot long, let all who ride as well as walk past read the popular anathemas against the most infamous of human laws. There are, I am sure, thousands of individuals in thi s ki ngdom who would allow such a use of their property. The formation of Reading Societies, Book Clubs, and Family Literary Circles, throughout England, Scotland, and Ireland, is now carried into effect with so little trouble, and they are supplied with all works for perusal upon such ad vantageous terms, that we shall not be surprised at their being very generally established in every county of the United King dom—especially as the plan and particulars, with a select cata logue describing all the valuable modern publications down to May 1840, is now to be had, gratis and postage free, on appli cation to Mr. Bull, public librarian, 19, Holles-street, Caven dish-square. We beg to direct the attention of our readers to the following extract of a letter addressed to A. Rowland anil S 20, Hatton-garden, London, from Hamburgh, dattd 15th February I have also the pleasure to inform you of another decided proof of the efficacy of your celebrated Macas sar Oil. Dr. Roding, of this place, had a patient who was bald for several years, and who had tried several articles for the recovery of his hair, but without effect, until he was advised by the Doctor to make use of your oil ; after using three bottles he entirely recovered it, and has now a much finer head of hair than formerly. Dr. R. felt so gratified at its success, that he made a drawing of the recovered hairs (magnified), which he herewith sends." Rowland's Macassar Oil prevents hair from falling off, or turning grey; changes grey hair to its original colour ; frees it from scurf and dandruff ; and makes it beauti fully soft and curly. In dressint , hair, it keeps it in curl, &c., unimpaired •by damp weather, the dance, or in the exercise of riding.—*,,* Ask for " Rowland's Macassar Oil." All the instruments formerly employed for re • licving deafness are now far superseded by the Voice Conductors invented by Mr. E. Solemons, Nos. 36, Old Bond-street, and 1, Old .Jewry, City. The delicacy and minuteness of the con struction are extraordinary, being only a quarter of an inch in diameter. They may be worn quite unperceived. The vi brating quality of the metal of which they arc formed enables persons in church, theatre, or public assembly, to hear the voice of a distant speaker with perfect distinctness; indeed, they may be pronounced a masterly performance, and the inventor merits all the patronage which talent and ingenuity have the privilege of claiming. His Patent Amber Spectacles extend greater relief to the visual organs than those formerly adopted—to per sons reading or engaging their sight at any minute employment by day or candle light, they will be found an indispensable ac• quisition, as the eyes are never fatigued from their use. This is attributed to the valuable mineral of which they are com posed being of the most healing nature to the sight. It must be highly satisfactory to Mr. Solomons to find the Princip a l medical authority in Europe using them, and strongly recom mending their adoption to all persons requiring the aid of spectacles. BOAT RA c E.—A la a mateur boat-race, which excited great interest, came off on Thursday at Passy, th e g i gs starting from the Pont du Champs de Mars on one side of the Isle de Louviers, pulling round the point, and the la inning post being placed under the Pont de Grenel. At two o'clock both boats were ready at the starting-Post, one a beautiful four- oared gig of Sir Sidney Smith's, rowed by Mr. Aitchison, stroke oar, Mr. Paterson 3, Mr. O'Sullivan 2, Mr. Cookson 1, Mr. A. Paterson ,(coxswain). The other, a four -oared gig, be longing to Mr. Peters, the crew consisting of Mr. Chichester, stroke oar, Mr. Peters, junei 3 ; Mr. Smith 2, Mr. Cochley 1, Mr. Peters (coxswain). A t the word " off" bein g g iven by Captain Hatton, both boats started well, Sir Sidney's gig taking the lead at first, but on reaching the baths, about half way up to the Point, Mr. Peters b oat shot a h ead, and kept, the lead for about 20 yards, when ag ain Sir Sidney's gig went in ad vance, and rounded the point about three boat's length before the " artful dodger." Sir Sidney Smith's boat was not again caught, her crew rowing right away from their adversaries, and ultimately winning by about 14 boats' lengths. There was a large assemblage on the Isle de Louviers to view the match, and the winners were received amidst cheers and waving of handkerchiefs. GREENWICH RAILWAY. —Some idea may be formed of the immense influx of visitors to the Easter fair at Greenwich from the following au thentic statement of the re ceipts at the railroad alone during three days Easter Sun day, 505/. 15s. ; Monday, 1,03 81 . 6, - Id• ; 'Tuesday, 584/. Os. 9d. ; total, 2,128/. 10s. 10d. The returns for IVednesday have not yet been accurately ascertained, but it is said they do not differ materially from the receipts of Tuesday. The cushions, which were taken out of the carriages during the holidays in consequence of some of them being wilfully damaged on Good Friday, were on Thursday replaced. Not a single accident occurred during the bustle occasioned by the Constant running of the trains. • - OF PARTY. — Party spirit, it i s we ll known, runs often to extremes. There is an admirable in stance of this exemplified in the Vale of Leven at the present time. There is a suspension bridge over the Leven, connect ing the village of Bonhill and Alexandria. The ta c k sman renting the toll of this bridge, i s a true speci men of the narrow Church party, and on Sunday allows passengers of his persua sion to cross and re-cross the bridge for one halfpenny, while he charges the Dissenters one penny.—Scots Times.

(From the' London New Price Current of April 24. ) SUGAR..—SIIICC the opening of the market on Wednes day there has been a good demand for West India, and prices generally have advanced is per cwt. This afternoon both the Grocers and Refiners continued ready buyers of %Vest India Aluscovadoes at the advance above noticed, but in consequence of the very reduced show of samples further advanced pri: es were asked, which checked business and the sales did not exceed 400 hhds and tierces, making the total business of the week 1,500 hhds and tierces, and the market dosed very firmly, exhi biting an advance upon the rates of Thursday last of Is to Is 611 per cwt. REFINED.—This week prices generally have advanced 6d per cwt, with a very firm and almost bare market Lumps equal to the standard have brought 82i. per cwt.; double crushed in bond has brought 34s 9d, to be delivered in about a fortnight, while Hamburgh Loaves cannot be bought below 37s to 39s for 14 lbs. ,ciAußiTirs...._There has been a good request for this description, and prices hare further improved 6d to Is per cwt.; fine yellow at 67 to 68s, good middling and good do at 6.5 s to 66s Gd, miudling do at 64s Gd, and a few lots brown at 60s to 61s Gd per cat. EAST 11DIA.—In v,liite Bengal so small a quantity is }et offering, that business is almost prevented, small par cels only haying been sold to supply actual wants at full late qnctations. For Manilla and Siam the holders still refuse to give way in prices, and the business is nearly confined to about 6,000 bags of the furmer at 22s and 22s 6d for fine brown. FOREIGN,--There is no new feature in this market; Pernambuco at public sale was bought in, middling white at 28s, yellow at.23s, and fine brown at 22s per cwt. Brown qualities of Bahia and Rio held for stiff prices. A floating cargo of white Havanuah has been sold at 395, de liverable in tile Baltic. W. I. Mot.assils remains firm in prices, Demerara, of good quality at 34s to 34.3 per cwt. COFFEE.—The demand for British Plantation descrip tions continues extremely limited, and confiaed to the clean and better qualities, of which we ha%c still a very small sup ply, but except at the late reduction sales cannot be effected. The public sales have offcrtd 2,816 bags St. Domingo ; the whole of the sound of the former was bought in at from 46s 6d to 483 for good ordinary to fine ordinary coliaury, but the damaged sold at 38s 6d to 46, ; the St. Domingo partly sold at from 45s to 46s for low and good ordinary mixed. This afternoon there were brought to public sale, 3 226 bags Java, 289 bags Ceylon, and 332 bile s Mocha, which went off quietly, there being no desire to purchase at pre. Bent rates, and the whole of the sound was Weight in; Java, good pale bold at 755; Ceylon, good ordinary 935; and Mocha at 1153 to 128 s ; the damaged of the Java sold at stiffer prices than lately, first class from 65s to 67s per cwt. Cocoa.—The prices of West India are not so firmly supported, 225 bags St. Lucia disposed of at 54s to 564 6d for good middling red. Foreign is firm at late rates. _ INDIGO.—The quarterly sales which commenced on the 14th, were brought to a close yesterday.

Prices ruled about 3d under those of the last sale. Taenow.—Prices continue to rule very high for Rus sian Tallow; the stock being nearly all in the hands of one party, he is still enabled to get his own price, and for small parcels of first quality 52s 6d has been paid. The stock is 4,800 casks greater than at this time last year. Several parcels of Odessa have arrived, and sales made at compa ratively lower prices than at Petersburgh. For delivery in the last three months the transactions have been on a small scale at 49s 5d to 49s 9d per cwt.

Bacon prices are firmer ; prime meat is selling at 51s to 32a. Lard prices are firm. Spices.-In Cassia Lignea nothing of consequence has been done.

This afternoon, 294 bags middling Bourbon Clore* ; were offered at public sale, and bought in at 10/4 to 11id per lb. 716 bags Bengal Ginger of good fair quality cold at 18s 6d per cwt. TEA. — Tbe monthly public sales of Tea commenced on Wednesday ; the total quantity was 12,471 pkgs, or 915,775 lbs weight. The attendance of persons was large, but there was a want of spirit in the biddings, not-. withstanding the trade evinced a better feeling towards the article than previously. The merchants exhibited much firmness, and gave great support by buying in con siderable parcels at high rates ; the trade was consequently compelled to pay full prices for the quantity purchased, but no actual advance upon the previous market-rates can be. quoted. Black Teas have chiefly sold at full former prices, while the Green, of wlriele the - proportion was large, have gone off very heavily, and generally at reduced prices, say 2d to 3d per lb, which is more apparent is Hysons. For Company's Congou the demand has been dull, and the price has fallen to 2s .5d a 2s sid per lb cash, while for prompts nothing has been done. In Free Trade _Tea there has been scarcely any business done by private con tract, but generally holders arc firm, and the market looks healthy. To-day the public sales were brought to a close ; the biddings were again inanimate, which perhaps may be ac counted for by the bulk that passed auction being Green descriptions, which are not much wanted by the trade. Prices, however, were firmer towards the close, and the total quantity sold is estimated at 11,000 pkgs. Congou closed a shade dearer in some instances. This afternoon Company's C ngous remained dull at 2s 5d to 2s 3fd cash.

THE GREAT lIERRERT MAYO.—It was tiiiS great man, who is Senior Surgeon to Middlesex Hospital, who first introduced Holloway's Ointment into the above Establish meat ; since then many others of our greatest medical men have followed his example, by introducing it into other Public Hos pitals. No medicines in the world ever performed such won derful and extraordinary cures as Holloway's Ointment and his External Disease Pill do, and if they are only used together, it is impossible that they can fail to cure any skin disease, or gout and rhetinia . ism, and wounds of every kind. They are sold at all respeeablc chemists' and druggists' throughout the kingdom, and at the Proprietor's Establishment, No. 13, Broad-street buildings. LIGHTS AND SHADES OF MILITARY LIFE. Edited by Alajor-General Sir Charles Napier, K. C.B.—This work consists of two distinct narratives, written by two differ ent individuals who served in the armies of France, and whose military recollections are here combined with an introduction and observations by Sir Charles Napier. In literary characteris tics these French writers immeasurably excel our English military authors. The Count de Vigny imparts to his narra tive the interest of a romance, and M. Blaze has such a happy talent for the picturesque, that one might suppose he was tell ing some agreeable half historical tale with the most consum mate art of the poet and the and amusing, o Al. Blaze's portion sp ( with ortioito l f ig th h e t work is the most sketchy n and sunny traits, and bringing before us so graphic a picture of life in the various vicissitudes of military experience, that it is possessed of a fascination which has rarely before been imparted to such subjects. \Vc like these volumes, because they give us fresh views of the soldier's life, and because, written by a sol- Atlas. tetybeen of sol diers, they speak o ut of the fullness of thou g h t and knowledge." he Barbadoes Erligtatict , 'theAct propriety has i et the asserting g ke thei r l a b our to the best leavingthe y rt a feteas t e oa Governmentbse ut market."
