account of the trial ot the persons charged
with the murder of the Dri.kalls, John and

made the following extracts
One hundred and twelve men were indicted
for the murder, aud ono hundred pleaded not
guilty, and were put upon trial The very

many names in the indictment, left the accuse

which led to the supposed offence.
The case was submitted to the jury who.
without leaving their seats rendered vcrd'cs
Of no, guilty. This verdict was given par'iai-
ly from n want of evidence, and from what the
Jury considered the absolute necessity OF the
case. The writer saws the laws could not pro-

use Of catechism, or by preaching. Upon
The large plantations, particularly. il has been
| ionnd that the ignorance Of the colorcd peo-
pie generally Of the first principles of the Cos
pei, Is such, that nothing but the simplest pos
sible mode Of intoxicating the clemens of Cos
pei truth could serve any valuable purpose, or
reach the hearts of these poor to whom the
Gospel is required TO be preached. The or
binary preaching enjoyed by the white con-
gregatlons proves, therefore, of little compar-
alive benefit TO them, at least where such adj
dltIonal instruction is not impaired. These
statements, now given, do not therefore apply
TO the ordinary services Of the sanctuary, and
upon which also most Of them attend but on
y those religious services which are sDeciaHy
intended for their benefit Accommodations
are a tlorded to them III almost all our church
cs, where they are encouraged To attend
where they arc often personally addressed
and where they have the Lords supper admin
Istered TO them in the presence of the whole
congregation
We trust that even this nayratre may be
the means OF stirring up the minds Of many TO
do what they can III this cause, so abundantly
sanctioned by every principle Of piety.

THE BIBLE.
To The Caiscns orhe United STATE.

Having completed the studies which have
occuried great portion OF my life, and pub
lshed the results, take the liberty to invite
your attention TO certain facts which my re-
searches have Trough to light
During my education, | was accustomed,
like other young men, to confidc in the cor
rcctncss of the books used and was instruct
ed in the common errors of elementary books
The effect was, that after came 10 examine
for myself the truth or error of principles,
bad 10 combat, net only the mistake of others,
but my own early opinions and habits ofthink-
ing. Many of the errors | had learned in
youth, found their way into my first publica,
tons and TO correct them has cost me 40 lit
tie trouble This however has been done to
a degree tolerabIy satisfactory; although /
make no preteuslons TO exemption from mis-
takes. Myrcscarchcs have resulted in a full
conviction that there Is no profound and ac-
curate scholarship the pbioIogy Of the Eng
fish language either in British universities or
in America Colleges. The elementary books,
British and American, now generally used,are
defective or incorrect; and the best writings
in the language are sometimes disGgured by
paIpable errors. My observations convince
me liat the multitude OF books for teaching
the language, written by incompetent men, is
great evil to truth and TO literature. The
evil has generally been begun in England, but
has been doubled and trebled in this country,
ond is increasing every years
But my particular object in this address, is,
TO call your attention to the language Of
the common version Of the Holy Scrip =
lures. The body Of this language was intro
duced by Tyndale, at least three hundred and
twenty years ago. AT that time the grammar
of the nguagc was not well settled, and the
WORDS and phrases now esteemed improper to
| be used IN company, were not then too often
sive to be Familiarity uttered. The general
character Of the style il excellent, and well as
dapted to express the sense of the original
But in the long period ofihrec centuries, SOME
words have become obsolete the slgnlfca
ton Of others, in ordinary use. has been chang
ed, and these do not now carry TO n common
reader the true sense o. the original the
grammatical errors in the version are NOR,
numerous than in any other book now gencr
ally read a few passages are erroneousl!
Z, nslated and the c0rr- ct'ons of them arr
found on, -. commentaries which most peo
pc never see many words and phrases can
Uo now be uttered IN company; and SOM
words are used which pcHert the sense. 70
example, the word disGnru' IS used in six pas
saecs and uaiooe- IN hrce These words ar
nonsense. In the Scriptures, they must b.
understood to mean GnuM and loose, sens
directly contrary TO their meaning, or the pas
sages will be rendered false or bEmeaHug.-
T How can a Christian community be justified d
suffering the Scriptures, for more than tire
hundred years, to be disdgurcd by such oby

THE ROAD TO RUIN.
The following, taken from the report Of the
Criminal Court oi 81. Louis, is full of interest
RI oo,fed fay a., pe...,

ment Tor passing counterfeit money. The de-
iendant IN this case was, probably, twenty
eight years OF age, but wore the appearance
OF al least thrlyive. He had eyldentl, once
been fine-ooklng man; IN stature he was
something over six feet, and his strongly mark,
ed features and prominent forehead gave evil
dence OF more than ordinary intellect But
you could clearly discover that he had become
a prey TO the monster In,emperance
mark OF the beast was stamped upon his coun-
tenancc, which gave II livd aud unnatural
/ glare. He was placed in the box with others
who were TO be arralgned upon the ndict-
inenis preferred against them. All the others
| had plead not guilty, las is usual J and n day
was set for their trial The defendant was
told to stand up, and the clerk read 10 him

ing, on the 10th day of August, passed to one

Then, turning TO the Court, he remarked that
as this was the last time hc ever expected TO
