NEW TRANSLATION of the BIBLE.
" Without entering into theological discussions, he
would just mention what was universally admitted, that the
Established Church made her articles wide, vague, and
liberal as possible, in order to include as large a number of
dissentient and discordant opinions as she could. This is
fully confirmed by the oracle of the Church, The Times,'
in its constant appeals to that Sectarian mouthpiece,' The
Watchman,' to the tenor of The Wesleyan Ministry, the
great outwatch of the Church,' and ' help, help, Titinius—
as a sick girl.' "—P. 50. Great Catholic Mecting.—The
London and Dublin Weekly Orthodox Journal, No.
212., Vol. 9.

" This patch and piebald work in religion is Spoken of
by some as affording to the Almighty thepleasing spectacle
of great variety. But, come, let us try this a little. What!
a variety of religious creeds pleasing to God ! Will any one
openly hold that God delights in a variety of beliefs ? There
can be but one true belief, all the rest must be false. Every
deviation from the truth is a lie. Each sect must believe
that all the other sects are in the high road to perdition.
To think in any other way about the matter, is to consider
all faith and all religion as a mere farce. And yet, there
arc men to pretend that a variety of faiths is pleasing to the
God of truth !

There can be but one true religion. All the rest must
be false. It is dismal, enough, then, to know that there
are forty of them, or thereabouts. The printing and
publishing of the Bible may possibly have established the
one true religion ; but, at any rate, it must have created
thirty-eight false religions. There can be but one true
one, mind."—Mr. Cobbett's Weekly Register, Saturday,
June 12, 1824.
Combinations of the Roman Catholic Clergy, &c."
An association was last evening assembled in the parish
priest's residence, the parchial house, (the French En-
voy being present), Lower Exchange, &c. which the
Roman Catholic Archbishop of Dublin, and the other
priestly members call " An Association for the Propaga-
tion of the Faith, to co-operate with those already esta-
blished
at Paris and Lyons." " Resolved, also, that
the Secretary convey our thanks through the Rev. Mr.
Toole, who appears here on the part of the Central
Committees of Paris and Lyons, the warmest thanks, not
only of this meeting, but of Catholic Ireland generally, for
the promptitude and zeal with which they have on different
occasions, advanced more than ten thousand pounds to the
missions of the British Colonies, and two hundred and
forty pounds to Dr. Griffith, lately sent to the Cape of
Good Hope, to carry forward the great work of religion."
—The Morning Herald, Sept. 22, 1838.
" What were their principles? They distinctly hell
that no prince, potentate, or parliament, had any right
over the education of the children belonging to the Ca-
tholic Church—that Church established upon the foundation
laid down by Christ the Redeemer." " But
that the State should overpower the Church, that the body
should prevail over the ghostly, that the world should
triumph over heaven, we neither will, nor can consent to
tolerate."—P. 48.
