The WORD SELAH.-The translators Of
the Bible have left the Hebrew word SELAu,
which occurs so often in the Psalms, as they
found it, and Of course the English reader
often asks his minister, or some learned friend,
what 1t means. And the minister or learned
friend has most often been obliged to confess
Ignorance, because it is a matter in regard to
which the most learned nave by no means
been Of one mind. The Targums and most
of the jewish commentators give TO the word
the meaning of e%terndAy, .f%oreCer. Rabbi
Kimchi regards it as q sign to elevate the
voice The authors of the Septuagint trans
lation appear to have rcgardod it as a musical
or r~ythmical note. Herder regards it indi.
eating a change of tone. MathcSon thinks it
as a musical note, equivalent, perhaps, to the
word repeat. According to Luther and 9th
crs, it means silence! Gcsenius explains it
to mean "Let the instruments play and the
singers stop" Wochcr regards it as equiva-
lent to $Mrsum c0rda,-up, my soul SOM
mor, after examining all the scvcnty-four
passages i'll which the word occurs, recognizes
in every case an actual appeal Or summons
to jehovah. They are calls for aid and pray
ers to be heard, expressed either with entire
directncss, or if not in the imperative, Hear
Jehovah or awake Jehovah ? and the like,
still earnest addresses to God that he would
remember and hear" &c. The word itself he
regards as indicating a blast of trumpcts by
the priests. SeIah itself he thinks an abridged
expression used for litigation Selah,-IIig,
gaion Indicating the sound of the s.ringed in
%strumcnts, and Selah a vigorous blast of trum-
pets.
This we gather from the B~IBLIoruEcA
SACRA.- VI. Chronicle.

Among the many blessings attendant upon i'm
provements in the social condition, and the advanc-
cs Of our race in Intelligence, is the prolougation of
human life. With the increase of intelligence has
grown up q knowledge for the elements OF health,
and Il regard for them, and commensurately with
the strides Of science have we acquired the means
Of arresting disease, and faverting its ravages.-
Notwithstanding the progress VIC have made, sta
tistic3 show that even now, one sixth Of the whole
population die annually of the consumption.
One Of the most important discoveries Of the age,
i'll alneliorating the condition Of this large class Of
suffering humanity, is Dir. Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry. What time establishes and consecrates,
what experience adopts and confirms, what all men
in all places unite in saying is good and valuable, is
so, no doubt. A popularity of this sort fixes in So
ciety its roots so deep and so strong, that time can
not destroy it. The success which has attended
this medicine for several years past, has overcome
the prejudiccs Of all respectable men, and the arti-
Gle has taken 4 stand among the first class of dis
]covcries and blessings Of the age; and when re-
sorted to in season, elldicate5 the disease for which
it is recommended.

ADDRESS ON THE LICENSE LAw.-Thc Rev.
James Meacham gave an address at the Copgrcga
tional Meeting House in this village, on Sunday eve
ming last, on the above named subject, ~occupyingan
hour and twenty minutes in reading sections Of diff
terent laws Of this State, ana in Illustrating in va
rious ways the importance Of voting No License at
the Town Meetings to be held next week. 70 those
acquainted with NJ. AIaacb0m it is needless to say
there is no baby work, or halfway Of doing buai-
moss about him. We think the weakest part Of his
address was his doo}ogy at the commencement, for
touching upon q poHtjcaJ question on that evening.
The ground On which we thus judge is the f!ct that
all civil laws arc, or should be, based On the princ;-
pie Of affecting the morals Of the community. Tor
this reason We believe no apology is required from
the man who, on the Sabbath, explains The duty OF
Others in regard to temperance or to the ~oaalayel in
this country. We think It is extraneou5 matter in
tarmixcd with these questions, that generally rem
ders the presentation Of them obnoxious 70 those
who think neither should be preached upon on that
day, ~ tlcy have not separated them in their own
minds.
Az the law now stands, we must vote No Lirca5c,
should we be at the polls 10 vote either way never
tlIeless, We believe that hal there never been any
license law on the Statute Book Ct this State, nor &
law Of any kind about selling Intoxicating drinks,
tie temperance cause would have been on rs good
footing as it now is. But the cry from run-so!lers
and ru,n-driukoys that there is more liquor drank
now than under the Old license law, is all moon4line,
and carries hypocrisy ON the face fit. For, if these
men desire 4 liberal sale and Use Of Intoxicating
drinks, and there is moro sold under the present
law than under tho former law, why do these men
act so foolish as to oppose the restrictive plan, which
circulates the most liquor?

RUTLAND AND WASHINGTON RAILROAD.

The citizens of the town of Rutland in "a
vor of so locating this road that it may ter
inmate at Whitehall, met at the Court House
on Monday evening, DIST Feb. JAMES BAR
RErT, IT,, was appointed Chairman.
The object of the meeting was declared to
be to pass resolutions expressing the favora-
able opinion with which The route to White
hall is regarded, and the estimation which its
friends at this terminus set upon it. Upon
which JOHN CAIN, ESD, offered the following
resolutions =
ReSo5ced, That although our local situation
in respect to the Whitehall and Fort Ann
routes has heretofore restrained US from pub
livly declaring our preference Of the two, and
making what we still consider a nice matter
Of discrimination yet the preliminary meas
ures for building the Rutland and Washing
ton Railroad are SO far advanced that We con-
slider it due alike to the stockholders and the
people in this section Of the country, to eX-
press frankly the preference which our judg-
ments have forced upon us.

WHEREAS, Whitehall is situated at the
head Of Lake Champlain-is accessible from
the south and west by means Of a Canal, and
soon to be by q Railroads., and in a high
degree must become, the mart Of Il large cX-
tent Of country it is wise in constructing a
