Rev JUDD of this city, moved the adoption of the
report in few appropriate remarks He paid the Board
of Managers high compliment for the manner in which
they had performed the duties imposed upon them In their
efforts to procure faithful revision of the Scriptures
they permitted themselves to be thwarted in their
great purpose They had been met by difficulties and
obstacles which would have turned aside any other body
Of men, but they knew the Importance of the work which
they had to do and they never swerved from of its obi
cations Those who were opposed to the desired revision
endeavored to prevent from being all the
religious newspapers east of the Aeghanes resisted tho
movement and the only Baptist quarterly review, the
Christian eter has passed the crisis without publishing
syllable in relation to it. The report said the speaker
in conclusion ought to be published it is all that truth
requires Hence the efforts which have been made to
suppress the movement of this Bible Union The sent
mens of this Union must be suppressed tho public must

revision, because the moment that word is mentioned

put down and gag this civil and religious ber-
unworthy the Protestant The Catholics may Cypress
and prosecute, and KILL they have DONE and prevent
the freedom Of speech but what shall we think of Protss
tants who attempt to follow in their footsteps.
