Mr. EDITOR ,-The proposal to establish a Bible Depository in this village, deserves con- sideration. The locality is advantageous to the design. A good stock of Bibles here would afford desirable facilities for the supply of the neighboring towns. Without greatly enlarg- ing on the topic, I would offer three reasons in favor of such an institution.
 l. Economy. The American Bible Society publishes the Scriptures in editions of all sizes and styles of binding, Its books are not sur- passed for clearness of imprint, and neatness with durability ofcover. These Bibles are sold at baie cost, and would be so afforded at the Depository here-,hus saving large per cent in cost as compared with store prices for a similar article.
 g. There is every reason for belief that the inducements presented by such stock of Bi- bles at low prices, would greatly increase the number of copies in circulation among us, and thus conduca to an enlarged interest in the study of rupture.
 3. It is import ant that churches and bcnev- olent individuals should have easy access to a good collection of Bibles in order to meet oc> caslons for gratuitous distribution S.
