DR. WEBsTER.-This venerable man
was in town last week He is nearly
eighty years old, yet his step is elastic
and firm, his intellect clear and vigorous,
but his eyes have considerably failed
him. 1t seems quite pleasant to see the
person whose name has been familiar to
us ever since we knew a spelling book.
But few men have done more good to
the world than he has. His letters to a
Student in College-we think this is the
title-is an excellent work. His die
tionary is the great monument Of his
learning. This cost him thirty years
labor, and the acquisition, probably, Of
more than twenty different languages
This work is spoken Of very highly in
this country and in Europe. He has
published, within a few years, a new
version of the Bible, in which is substi-
tuted words in present use for obsolete
terms, passages, which are rather in
delicate in the common version, rendered
in language less offensive to the ear,
and other alterations, but in no case
changing the true intent and meaning Of
the scriptures. There is considerable
opposition existing against its use, from
the fact that people are afraid of inno-
yations in the Bible. He remarks that
there is no more than was made against
the use Of the present version when it
was first published. He observed that
clergymep, who had examined it thor
oughIy, we're invariably pleased with il.

The American question has been lost

an article in the Journal des Debats, which
blames the Message Of the 18th ofJanuary
as taking away the good impressions made
by that Of the 7th December. The oppo.
