We have received intelligence from Italy Of the
most interesting and cheering nature. a Bible
Society, auxiliary to the British and Foreign
Bible Society, was formed in one Of the chief
cities in that country in the month of December.
English, Americans, Swiss, French and Italians,
took part in It's organization. 1t was great oc-
casion; for although there was no display or
eclst, no ostentaIious convoking of the people,
yet the number present WIS highly respectable,
the zeal which influenced them was pure and ar

engaged in this field as soon rs possible. The
