FRANKFORT, SEPT. 30.—The friends of Reli-
gion and Religiiius Concord, will learn with plea-
sure that tbOe has just appeared at Brunswick a
new German Translation of the New Testament,
Intended -for the use of all Christian Communions.
It is the: work of two Benediaines, CHARLES
and LEANDER VAN Ess, and intelligent critics agree
that it is the best there is in the German lan-
guage. Two editions are printed at the same time,
one far the Catholics and the other for the.
Protestants; but the former differs. from the la
ter
0111 Y by some additions taken from the VW-.
gdte.
Both have been approved by Divines of the re-,
sPediveCommuniOns.' The twolearned Benediclines
are now employed in translating the Old Testament
011 the same principles. May they succeed as well
the Ministers of Geneva, who have. given us a
',fetich version of 'the Bible, equally esteemed by
uatholics and Protestants. •
