DEMAND FOR BIBLES IN IrALY-n /. a
very interesting fact, that the recent changes in
the Italian States have opened the way for the
extensive introduction of the Scriptures No
longer ago than June IL, the Rev. Mr. Lowndss
the estimable agent of the British and Forei0n
Bible Society, at Malta, received an application
for t.eo thousand Italian Bibles, of Dodati, for
circulation in Italy. On the day previous, a sim
liar application was made for several hundred
Bibles, OF the same version, also for the Italian
States And on the day before that, an apnlica-
ton was made by person in Malta for one
thousand Of the same Bibles, for distribution in
Sicily. Now one thing is very clear. WhateY-
err comes of the late changes and overturnipes
politically, it will be very hard matter to set
these Bibles out Of the hands of the people and
II left among them, they cannot fail to do a good
work. There is hope for Italy.
