party. They were paid for at a price
far above their value; but they were paid
for nevertheless.-Wnh a perfect knowl-
edge of this fact, they have been received
into full fellowship by the federal party
Mr. Clay's irredeeinable" pary-they
have been constituted it's leaders and chiefs ;
and with this ineffacable stain upon their
skirts, stand now at the head Of that party.
So much so, that Wise and Graves, the
personal and bosom associates of Mr.. Clay,
were the instruments in the death of one of
The most chivaric and estimable of the sons
of New England, because he declined to
endorse or deny the gentility of this same
purchased instrument and leader of the
Bank Party. And this outrage, thus COM
mitted, is pallated and explained and even
justified by his associate partisans, by all
the whig'' presses, with very few excep-
tions.
Snch is tie candidate, and such the lead
ers of the BANK AND IRREDEEMABLE PAPER
PARTY. Between such a party, with Mr.
Biddle at its head, and the Democratic
Party and Democratic Administrations
there is natural hostility. One seeks to
promote a sound state of things-tle other
unsoundness, depreciation and derange-
l.
the business and prosperity of the country,
as the result of returning confidence, and
as an element of political strength-the
other promotes depression, irredeemable
and illegal paper issues, and pecuniary de-
probation as an auxiliary in their schemes
of money-making or their combinations for
obtaining political power. In short, one
seeks to promote the substantial weil-being
of the American people, by requiring n spe-
Gle resumption, and by aiding and encour-
aging the sound banks in a return to it
and the other labors to prevent it, and with
its league of non-specie paying, extended
and perhaps insolvent banks, their irredeem-
able issues and their protested notes, avows
its determination to war with the Admins
tration to the death. "One or the other"
says Mr.. Eiddle, "must fall" "The
present struggle too must be final"
Can free people, rightly appreciating
their own character, and their true interests,
hesitate for IA moment in their choice be-
tween the IRREDEEMABLE PAPER PARTY AND
ITS LEAGUE OF SUSPENDED BANKS, and A
DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATION which rests It's
claims to their favor upon its efforts to pro-
tect them from the grasp of a desperate
combination of partizans and specializing
institutions, by encouraging, aiding and
sustaining return to redeematle issues
and to solid prosperity.-Albany Argus.

THE HEART IN RUINs.-The mani
&C, with a mind in ruins, is a mournful
sight; but far more so is heart in ruins,
with the prospect of remaining so forever
The wreck of earthly hopes is often enough
to wiring the heart with sorrow; but what
is this to the wreck of all that is bright and
glorious in the destiny of an immortal soul?
Misappied talent, and disappointed afec-
ton, often excite melancholy emotions {:
and yet what are all the wasted talents or
affections of this world, to those of the
world of despair? Oh! it is enough to
make angels weep, to think of all the dis
appointed hopes, and the blighted feelings,
and the ruined prospects, and the pervert-
ed intellect, and the broken hearts of hell |
To see the eye that might have sparkled
with celestial brightness, cleaning forev-
! er with hopeless desperation; to hear the
tongue that might have hymned the sweet
anthems of the redeemed, breaking the ST.
lence of perdition only with weeping and
wailing; to behold the intellect, the heart
the soul, the entire being, that might have
adorned the heaven of heavens, cast down
TO the blackness of darkness, the compan.
ions of devils and lost spirits-yes, it is e.
nough to make angels weep-enough, !
had almost said, to wake compassion in the
heart of the vilest outcast in perdition.-
And yet, fellow-sinners, such is the end tc
which you are rapidly tending-the END

places it amidst the mingiing waters of
these two channels. 1t constitutes all the
cords of human duty, by amounting these
relations with the JUNCTION of that one great
original principle. BeaeuoIemce or Lore.
In studying the divine law, it therefore
becomes US to examine the bearing OF its
principles, both on the eternal condition of
the whole moral universe, and on the pro-
stationary condition of our own race. 1t
is important to comprehend the true ma
ture of those eternal principles, in order
TO feel the majesty and power with which
each branch, each minutest application of
the ten commands, is invested. When
we have done this, and have also investi-
gated the dement, of sin, and the fearful
ness of human depravity, we shall be dis
ciplined for the remaining work of con-
templating the influence of grace in mag
nlfying these principles, even in The saliva
ton of sinners, and in giving to eternal
moral government itself, scope, majesty,
lustre, and inconceivably augmented
grandeur, through the peculiar develop
ments Of the glorious gospel. We shall
therefore endeavor TO illustrate, In the first
place, The DIVINE LAW, IN THE NATUR f
OF ITS ETERNAL PRINCIPLES.
Q theme, high and solemn These
principles are incorporated in the very
foundation of the moral universe. They
constitute system, In which the infinite
procedures of God, and the responsible
movements of created mind are all incIud-
ed. Every element of moral existence,
every affection and purpose, in the wide
range OF accountable agency, the final
happiness or woe of every inherlor of
immortality, in all the creations of the AL
mighty, must be subject to the touch, and
thrill under the action, and be moulded by
the energy, of these everlasting truths.
The first of these eternal principles
wlU be the subject OF our neat Grticle.-

CONSISTENCY. Nothing is more love-
ly than Christian consistency. Much OF
the popular in6deIity of the present day
is nourished and strengthened by the dis
covered absence of this heavenly virtue
in the character of the protested people of
the Lord. 1t is not because christians do
not possess any of the graces of the Cos
pel-it is not because none of the adorn-
ments OF virtue are spread over their char
acter, that in6dels rail against the truth
of Christianity: but because they discov-
er IN the character of many professed
christians, want Of harmony. One
thing contradicts the other. There is a
want of correspondence in the parts
Principle is not carried fully out Every
now and then something is discovered
that is just In keeping with the suppose
ton that the man is a hypocrite. 1t is this
want of consistency that stabs religion in
the very vitals.
These remarks are true in reference to
private Christians, but apply with still
! greater force to those who bear the sacred
| vessels of the Lord. The conduct of min.
listers of the gospel, how closely and con.
tinually is it watched by the world CT
where they may, the eyes of those who
would prove them hypocrites are still up
on them. Alas, when not engaged in
sacred duties-when journeying-whcr
in society-Wben mingIing in the private
circle, how apt are ministers to forget tina
they stand in the presence of such sterf
and memorable tribunal But if we ar,
slncere-If we always act as in the pres
ence OF God-it we always remember tn,
character we sustain, and the office w,
bear-then will our adversaries be con
founded and God glorifed.--Episcopa

remarks, calculated, as Thought, to con.

the close OF our interview, alluded to the
fearful and ruinous results Of the abound

greater evils upon the rising generation

the necessity Of some effectual check to
this enormous evil, and exposed belief
that the Sunday School is one of the means
whereby much can be accomplished for
these purposes. This conversation dis
closed to me fact, which, from having
been absent about two weeks, did moi
know, that his sons had attended the

From the trenty-second Report of the Anp.
Bible Society.
ColIation OF the EngIIsh Bible.


Many friends of the Society are aware,
probably that suspicious were awakened,
few years since in England, in regard
to the integrity of the present English BIZ
bic. Charges Of numerous and wide de-
partures from the first edition of the trans
lators had been freely circulated Many
letters and some pamphlets were publish
ed to substantiate those charges.
In these circumstances the authorized
printers Of the Bible at the Oxford Uni
versity published facsimile of the first
edition of King James, issued in 1911, in
order that it might be compared with mod
ern editions. This facsimile copy is
prepared with great minuteness, not only
as respects the text, but the orthographv,
punctuation, and even embellishments
Having procured one of these copies,
your Board felt it their duty to institute
rigid comparison between 1t and the stand
ard copy Of this Society To secure per-
feet fairness as we'll as thoroughness in
such an undertaking, supervising CON-
mittee was appointed by the Board, con-
sisting of one member from each religious
denomination connected with the Society
A skilIful proof reader was first directed
to compare the earl y and the modern copy,
word for word, and TO note down all the
discrepancies. Prof Bush, the editor of
the Society's publications, having in the
library great variety of Bibles issued
during the last three centuries, was then
requested to go through the same, and
learn where and when the changes found
commenced. The Committee, then, each
with copy of some age In hand, careful
" followed the editor and examined his
investigations. The whole subject was
then laid before the entire Board for their
adjudication.
The task has been arduous, though one
of great interest While it has been found
that numerous variations exist between
the ear y and the present copies of the
English Bible, it is also found that they
pertain only to unimportant particulars /;
such as capital letters, comas, italic words,
&c. not affecting the sense. 1t has been
matter of unfeigned satisfaction 10 the
Board TO find, on such careful invesliga.
ton, that the books which they have sent
forth from the Depository have been so
conformed in meaning to the first editions
issued under the eye of the translators.-
Little motive has been presented to make
any changes. Those which have been
made of trivial importance, and usually
for the purpose of return and conforma-
ton to the early copies.
