N o. 14.758.

TO THE ELECTORS OF SOUTH.
WARK.

WANTED a MANOR and ESTATE
(in any English county) with or without Mansion ;
or two Estates, the Purchase Money of which would not exceed
TWENTY-ONE THOUSAND POUNDS. All applica-
tions will be treated as strictly confidential.
Address by letter, post paid, to C. M. S., No. 3, Falcon-
square, Aldersgate-street, until Saturday next, after which to
(box 59) Nottingham.

Gentlemen—Having reason to apprehend that my con-
tinued silence may give countenance to unworthy artifices, I
anticipate my original intention of addressing you, when Par-
liament should assemble. Driven from a service I accepted
with gratitude, and cherished with devotion, I was willing to
defer to the last the painful task of taking leave of men, who,
to the generosity of confiding constituents, have uniformly
added the disinterestedness of friends. Believe me, I terminate
our political relations with a heavy heart, for I deeply feel the
mean hypocrisy and unrelenting injustice which have imposed
the necessity. The spirit of party bitterness has been displayed
upon too many occasions to have escaped the notice and regret
of impartial minds. I shall not descend to their repetition. No
longer a political man, even the strong and abiding sense of in-
justice and oppression shall extort from me no invective ; at
the same time I utterly deny the much vaunted boast ever put
forth by the interested admirers of a selfish and irresponsible
system, " that in this happy country there is no wrong without
a remedy."
Whether the present is my ultimate leave of public life, will
depend upon others. Hitherto the sacrifice has been all on one
side ; hereafter it shall be, as it ought to be, reciprocal. It is
a favourite article in the popular creed, and I subscribe to it,
that the representatives of the people ought to be paid ; but it
will continue to be an article of faith only, unless the people
themselves give to it a substantial reality. I verily believe if
the industrious classes, who, of all men are the most borne
down by inordinate and unequal taxation, were to contribute
their weekly mite to a fund—and it is not necessary to boast
"we are seven millions" in order to raise it,—a capital might
be obtained abundantly sufficient to return to Parlia-
ment, and to recompense the undivided services of at least six
powerful-minded, well-informed men, who by acting in con-
cert, with discretion and courage, would so lay bare the mon-
strous workings of faction—the bane of our common country—
that no party nor combination of parties could, for any
time, resist the firm resolves of a free people, in-
tent upon the great objects of wise and efficient go-
vernment. I blame not, while I deplore, the pernicious cau-
tion of the working classes in this particular ; at the same time,
reeling under the effect of .iievere sacrifices, in successive con-
tests, I feel no man can fairly charge me with selfishness, if,
on the downward slope of time, I listen to the friendly voice of
prudence.
Still the review of the past is not without its congratulations.
From my first return to Parliament in 1818, to the close of the
last Session, I cannot recur to a single vote I desire to revoke,
nor to a sentiment I wish to disclaim ; and it is with equal pride
I can record the boast, that during that long period I have
never obtained, nor once applied for, one place or situation—
no, not the smallest—either for Constituent, Friend, or Rela-
tion ; and the only office I ever personally held, and that for a
short vacation only, derived its chief value from the opportu-
nity it eventually offered to you, my friends, of testifying, in
a manner the most exalted, your love of justice, and your hatred
of wrong and oppression.
Though my humble efforts to serve you are at an end, I
shall continue in the enjoyment of a situation for which I am
proud to acknowledge myself your debtor. It required, and
could receive, no higher testimonial than that of being your
Representative, to earn the generous countenance of the Corpo-
ration of London, with whose noble institutions and commercial
greatness you are largely identified. Apart from the penalty of
disqualification, the important and responsible office which the
Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Common Council, in Common
Council assembled, conferred upon me in a spirit of kindness
and unanimity so kindred to your own, is in every way accept-
able to me. I feel there is nothing in the design or duties of
the office at variance with the purest devotion to freedom. It pos-
sesses all tke attributes of independence. lam chosen by the peo-
ple ; lam paid by the people ; and I return to the people equi-
valent services for my salary. Equally popular in its character is
the force over which lam placed. Our ranks are freely entered,
and with freedom relinquished. Inconsiderate youths, strolling
at fairs, or loitering in streets, are not allured by the boisterous
music of the drum, nor their senses drowned in intoxicating
draughts. Each step is the step of choice and deliberation.
Character and fitness are the primary qualifications. Every
constable must be able to read and write, and bring testimonials
of his observance of the social duties of life. The City Force
is not a mercenary or a military force, raised to be trans-
ported to distant scenes upon political services, but it is a
force raised expressly, and at their own charge, to guard
our citizens from danger, and their property from plunder—
to be ready, at all times, to throw the staff of our Saxon
ancestors around the helplessness of infancy and the decrepitude
of age—to protect the stranger within our gates from strata-
gem, and innocence from insult—to facilitate the intercourse of
our crowded streets, and to be in effect the vigilant safeguard
of law and liberty. Nor is the City Force popular in its
formation only, it is essentially so in its government. Sta-
tion is neither obtained nor advanced by favour—the ranks
of the men form the nursery of the officers. Such, my friends,
are the legitimate objects, and the mode of directing an esta-
blishment, over which I have been elected by my fellow- citi-
zens to preside, and I feel assured that you will amply appre-
ciate the exulting assurance, that to obtain this office, I have
been no apologist for the past, no apostate for the future.
Of your approaching contest I feel it would be unbecoming
in me to say anything. Well do you know the value of the
high trust committed to your charge, and the Friends of Free-
dom and Reform throughout the land may repose with confi-
dence upon the consistency of your example.
Electors of Southwark, farewell. In whatever s cenes or
circumstances of fortune I may be placed, I shall ever cherish
with pride the noble disinterestedness of your conduct towards
me, and resolve by my actions to sustain its direction.
I am, Gentlemen, your faithful friend and servant,
D. W. HARVEY.

JOHN THOROGOOD has been confined in
.a the Common Gaol of Chelmsford since the 16th of
Jannuary last, for not paying a Church. rate of ss. 6d.
In consequence of his long confinement, his business has re.
ceived so much injury, that his friends propose a public sub-
scription, for the purpose of saving his affairs from utter ruin,
and as a testimony to hint and to the country that they sympa-
thize in his sufferings, and honour the principle of religious
liberty, which is violated in his person.

WATERPROOF AND WARM WINTER CLOTHING.
NvALTER BERDOE, TAILOR, No. 69,
CORNHILL, was the first who introduced the
NEW VENTILATING WATERPROOF, which renders
garments (when properly made up) completely impervious to
rain, without offering any obstruction to the et cape of perspira-
tion. Its complete success is now fully established, as is proved
by the most convincing testimonials, its extensive adoption,
and the numerous attempts subsequently made by others to ac-
complish the same end.
THE CODRINGTON DREADNOUGHTS are a New,
and mach approved Waterproof Garment, gentlemanly, port-
able, and convenient, are now in general use, and the best
proof of their efficiency is the greatly increasing demand for
them, through the recommendation of those who have long
tried them.
W. Berdoe has new ready a large stock of all the most ap-
proved materials for Warm Winter Clothing, and is convinced
that the process of the British Water-proofing Company is the
best. First-rate Clothing of every description made to order.

they complained of many abuses and corruptions.
" The King who was resolved to follow the example of other
Christian Princes, who, in the commencement of their reigns,
usually took the first course for the establishing of the Church,
both for doctrine and polity, issued out his proclamations,
whereby he appointed several Bishops and Deans, together with
the Principals of those who had presented this petition to the
King, to attend on him at his palace at Hampton-court, on
January 12, 1603, there to confer with his Majesty about
these abuses and corruptions of which he had received such
complaints."
" On the second day of this conference, Dr. Reynolds, who
was the foreman and speaker of the Puritans, moved his Majesty
that there might be a new translation of the Bible, because, as
he said, those which were allowed in the reigns of Henry VIII.
and Edward VI., were corrupt, and not unswerable to the
truth of the original."—Page 310.
" Messieurs de Beausobre and L'lnfant, Ministers of the
French Church at Berlin, represented to the late King of
Prussia, that the French translations of the Bible began to be
neither so intelligible nor agreeable to be read as they were at
first, and that therefore to be edified by them required that
they should be revised, or a new translation made. On which
that Prince pitched on them for this purpose, and by his Royal
Decree appointed them to make a new translation."—P. 372.
A Complete History of the several T.anslations of the Holy
Bible and Testament, into English, both in MS. and in Print,

Thomas Earl of Malton, and Minister of Margate, in Kent,

Now comes the modern—mightier far.
" If he who spake as never man spake, who came to bless all
nations with divine wisdom, was by the enemies of his Gospel,
the Pharisaical critics of the time, charged with being beside
himself—of having a devil, &c., because he told them that they
taught for doctrines the commandments of men, i. e. the false
interpretations of the sacred original, and on that account was
persecuted by the bigots of that day,—one humble as myself
may expect to be abused by men of this description." . . .
" But my motives and my principles are, I presume to hope,
worthy the protection of my Country, and its established
Church; and, under the guidance of Heaven, I look to both.

All that has been invented or thought in the la-st two hundred

" Let the Noble Viscount persevere in the course—i. e., re-
sisting the demands of, and braving the direction of Radicals—
which he had resolved upon taking, and then let him trust to
the good sense of the people of this country for support.'
Such were the words in which the Duke o Wellington ex-
pressed his confidence in the sincerity of Lo alelbourne."—
The Times, July 1, 1839.
"It was said by the Noble Duke ' ellington) that those
opinions were contrary to the opinions neld by the University
of Oxford. He ( Viscount Melbousme) had great respect for
that University, but he could not admit that the University of
Oxford was to be infallible in these matters. On the contrary,
it was well known that the opinions of the Reformers who
brought about the Reformation in the Church were entirely
opposed to the University of (x ford. It was well known, that
if the opinions of that Unive lofty had been adhered to, the
Protestant religion would ne3itir have been established. The
opinions of Locke were opposed to those of the University; and
if their opinions only were to be consulted, everything liberal,
noble, and ingenuous in our institutions would never have been
established."—Viscount Melbourne's Speech in the House of
Lords, on the debate on the Earl of Radnor's motion respecting
the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge.—The Morning
Herald, Friday, Dec. 22, 1837.
"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 Look, and long commentaries have
been written upon them, expressly to show their beauty and
propriety."—The Examiner, Dec. 24, 1821.
" Mr. Bellamy, in a very conclusive performance, the Anti.
Deist, does not attempt to parry the weapon, so much as to
disarm the hand that wields it; for he does not explain away
the objections that have been advanced by the Deist, but he
labours rather to extirpate them, and to show that they have no
other root but misconception or mistake. Should this author's
emendations turn out correct, they should be adopted, as no
time and no authority can consecrate error. Mr. Bellamy has
met with patronage in the very highest quarter—a patronage
liberal in every sense of the word ; and as honourable to the
patron as the author."
" His alterations, I admit, are extremely numerous, im-
portant, and consequential, but they are supported by a mass of

" We hail the march of intellect, because we know—that a
reason that is cultivated, is the best support of a worship that
is pure. It is for those who thrive by the darkness to hurl
their anethemas against the diffusion of light; but wisdom, like
a pure and bright conductor, can render harmless the brutura
fulmen' of the Vatican."—Lacon, C. C. Colton.
I may therefore conclude, that upon this revision of the
Hebrew Scriptures, great stress ought to be laid, as anticipat-
ing a closer approximation in sentiment among all denomina-
tions of Christians now at variance with each other, upon cer-
tain disputed points of doctrine—under this impression, I think
all must subscribe to its importance."--.Chester Chronicle, Feb.
20, 1824.
" We may be sure that sufficient care has been taken that
the Holy Scriptures should contain nothing unsuitable to the
character or dignity of God, and that God should say nothing
of himself which should derogate from his own Majesty."—

" Mr. Carlisle then read the names of several of the sub-

scribers, beginning with the Prince Regent, who at first sub-
scribed only for five copies ; but, pleased with the specimens of
the translations forwarded to him by the gentleman in ques-
tion, had increased that number to fifty. This anecdote he
had from Mr. Bellamy himself, who wasi ?..timately acquainted
with Dr. Clarke, the Prince's librarian. Here Zr. Carlisle

iterated his argument, arising from the discrepancy of the two
translations, and the consequent fallibility, at least, of one
version."

First and Second Replies to the Quarterly Review, showing

46 I now proceed to examine the passage which the Reviewer
has adduced to prove how grossly I have erred in translating
the word gnaaroumin, prudent, instead of naked ; which is in
Job, c. 22. v. 6. And stripped the naked of their clothing.
This is, perhaps, one of the passages which he deems elegant,'
' simple, and dignified.' It is enough, surely ; and
such simple passages abounding in the common version have in
all ages excited the wonder of intelligent men. ' Stripped the
naked of their clothing !' In the name of common sense, if
they were naked, how could they be stripped ?"—Extracts. See

New Trans!atton:—" A tenth thou shalt tenth, of all the
increase of tny seed." Note—Onkelos, the most eminent of
all the learned Rabbis, who lived before the dispersion of the
Hebrews, and consequently made the translation of the Sacred
Volume into Chaldee at that period when the Hebrew was a
national language, he thus translates the elause—gnasaara
tignsarah, " a tenth thou shalt tenth," which is the same as
the Hebrew. The Septuagint 3E-47701, 71.6•EXaM;GEI (both
Alexandrine and Vatican) " a tenth thou shalt tenth." The
learned Selden, Le Clerc, and other great authorities on
tithes, say—" It is not likely that the Levites should have had
a tenth of the whole produce of the land, because'the number
of the tribe of Levi, compared with the numbers of the other
tribes, was so trifling. Neither could it be of all the produce
of the land, but of the increase of the seed ; as it is truly said
in the common version : for the increase must necessarily have
been that part of the produce after the seed employed to give
the increase, had been returned to the grower out of the gross
produce ; otherwise it could not have been said it was the " in-
crease of the seed."
" When the harvest had beene ended, and all gathered, then
the husbandman laid aside his great themma, otherwise called
the first fruits of his threshing floore, of which it bath beene
spoken in chapter en first fruits ; which, though it were one
of ten, in respect of that portion which the Levites received,
yet it was but one of a hundred in respect of the husbandman's
tocke, who payed the Levites; the Levites payed a tenth por-
tion unto the Priests ; this they termed Magnasher mim-ham-
magnasher, the tithe of the tithes, Neh. x. 38. The Pharisee
would pay a tenth, Matt. xxiii. 23 ; and hence it is that they
boasted, They gave tithes of all that they possessed, Luke
xviii. 12."—Civil and Ecclesiastical Rites, used by the ancient
Hebrews. Dedicated to the Earl of Pembroke, Chancellor of

" Add to this, that by the tenth part of the lands must ne-
cessarily be meant the tenth part of the profits ; which must
be owned to be a very forced interpretation, especially in a
primordial act such as this."—Page 111, Rapin's History of
England. See The Sun, Nos. 14,628-14,662.
"No mention, Bishop Barlow observes, is made of tithes
in the grand codes of canons, ending in the year of our. Lord
457, (which, next to the Bible, he considers as the most au-
thentic book in the world). During all that period, there-
fore, both the clergy and Church appear to have been sup-
ported by the free gifts and other oblations of the pious."—See
Selden on Tithes, and Barb. Rem. 169.
" Tithes, from the Saxon word Teoda, which signifies the
tenth part of a thing, may be defined to be the tenth part of
the increase yearly, arising and renewing from the profits of
land, the stock upon lands, and the personal industry of the in-
habitants.-2 Black. Com. 24.
" The King, Henry the Fourth, representing to the Parlia-
ment his great want of an extraordinary aid, the Commons
went in a body and addressed him, That without burdening
his people he might supply his occasions by seizing the revenues
of the clergy.' The Archbishop of Canterbury resisted—the
Commons brought in a Bill to seize the clergy's revenues—
the solicitations of the Archbishop were so prevalent with the
Lords, that they threw out the Bill, so the Commons were
forced to find other means to supply the king's occasions ; the
clergy granted a tenth and a half."—Page 495.
" The Commons, willing to comply with the King's
(Henry V.) demand of a subsidy, presented an address, praying
him to seize the clergy's revenues. The clergy perceiving
their ruin inevitable, came to the resolution to' resign a part of
their riches to the King in order to save the rest."—Page 509,

" It has been presumptuous," so we read in the pithy Exam-
iner, No. 780, "to dabble in chemistry ; to look through a te-
lescope ; to innoculate for the small-pox; to abate the virulence
of a pestilential disorder by the salutary assistance of a cow ;
lastly, and we trust the argument will be deemed conclusive—
to read the Bible. And in what has all this presumption gene-
rally consisted? In the anxiety of some men to know more
than it was convenient for other men they should know. The
moment the daring inquirer discovered a truth—a truth !—which
threatened to militate against a profitable system of error, then
the awful secrets' were invaded—the ' ark of the sanctuary'
disturbed. Any Barabbas of the day was milk-white compared
with the daring offender : in a word, ' away with him.' Could
great men thunder,' says Shakspeare, there would be r.othing
but thunder.' Could they make a thirst for knowledge sinful
and presumptuous, there would be a most inconvenient multipli-
cation of awful secrets.'

community, we take leave to mention a few whose great names
gave permanency to the system.

Reasons in favour of a New Translation of the Holy Scrip-

" The matter is highly deserving of attention. It is a
question of no less magnitude than the choice between a blind
adhesion to error, and a pure and perfect knowledge of the re-
vealed law of God. Which of these is preferable—which of
them is it no less the interest than it is the duty of every rea-
sonable being to adopt—cannot admit of a doubt. In such a
case let us not be alarmed by any vain fear .f temporary in-
convenience, which ought not for a moment to weigh against
the permanent and incalculable advantages attendant on such
a measure. Let us, on the other hand, entertain a lively, and,
I trust, a well-founded hope, that those who govern our Church
and, State, may be pleased to take the matter into consi-
deration, amid irect an immediate revision of our Received
Version, or, what might perhaps be more recommendable, a
New Translation of the Original Text."—Extracts.
A Reply to the Rev. Mr. Todd's Vindication of our Trans-
lation and Translators of the Bible. By Sir James Bland
Burgess, 1820,
" I certainly, therefore, should have considered them as alto-
gether undeserving of a reply, had they not been employed as
a vehicle of much illiberal personality, to which the writer has
affected to give an additional weight, bi ostentatiously an-
nouncing himself in his title-page, as Keeper of the Arch-
bishop of Canterbury's Records,' and by dating his preface from
' The Library, Lambeth Palace.' "
" Such were the birth and parentage of our received ver-
sion, as asserted by Mr. Todd himself, and proved by his own
testimony ! No further comment on it is necessary." Suo
sibi gladio hunc jugalo.
" Resting on this evidence, I leave this charge, and with it
the whole of Mr. Todd's Vindication of our authorised transla-
tion and translators, than which a more meagre, crude, and
unsatisfactory performance, was never obtruded on the public."
" The charge of Socinianism is a mere stale hacknied trick
of miserable controversialists, when 'they are reduced to the
paltry shift of calling names, in the hope of thereby escaping
from the effect of arguments, which they are incapable of an-
swering. Does not he know that it was employed against Le
Clerc ? Did he never hear of a similar charge made against our
immortal Locke? If such artifices were used against men of
their exalted characters, I can have no pretension to expect a
more liberal treatment."
" Some may say, 'Lotus introduce no change, for we cannot
tell what further changes may be required of us.'—Had this
been listened to, neither the Reformation nor the Revolution
could have taken place, and we should have been still subject t.
Romish superstition, and to despotic power."
" On the aide of those who advocate the necessity of a New
Translation rests the whole weight of facts and arguments. Let
not these be counteracted by less worthy considerations ; let us
not I.Pave to the enemies of Christianity the only weapons by
which it can be assailed; but let us cordially and sincerely
unite with the learned and pious prelate Archbishop New-
combe, in the prayer with which he concludes his preface,
May the all-wise God, in His fit time, dispose the Sovereign
of the first Protestant Churches, and of the most learned
countries in the world, to complete his true acts of piety, by
promoting equal attention to the English Bible !' "—Extracts.
