pression of it by the translators; and that in in- stances without number, the scholar of the present day finds clearness, force, and beauty In the original text, where the vernacular Bible is dark and confused, and can trace connected trains of thought, where that presents it brok en into incoherent fragments But none of these statements have awakened so general and so lively an interest, as those which relate to the sacred tert itself. Here we are told, the learned now stand on eminence far above those who prepared our common version. While the lat ter were acquainted with the inspired text of the New Testament only through copies made c Mousand years or more atter tue Apostolic age, the more favored scholars of the later epoch have access to manuscripts divided from il by only three or four centuries; and the variations between this text and the one from which our common version was made sare reckoned by thousands
 Is it possihe,' she concludes. that yer slon which embodies none of these results of modern scholarship, can long command the public confidence? Is it not to be feared that the English Bible. so long the chief element of Anglo-Saxon progress, may gradually relax its grasp on the popular life; to be honored at length as monument of the past, than as the living power which penetrates and controls the age" Mrs. Conant's History, S. e., pp 451, 452.

ANNEXATION TO THE UNITED SrATEs.- Some few weeks since we published the repre- sentaton made by tbe Legislature of Sonora -intended for the national Congress, but which did not arrive here until that body had been broken up by the plan of Tacubaya-protesfiag Gga'nst the mQflRg of c treaty 6y a0bjcb anu por hon 9 the national territory Sl0ud Je aHenated or Sold.
 We now learn that the Legislature of the State of Chihuahua, on the 1st ult.. mad taken up this address from the State of Sonora. and 't no'o protests ntte most formal manner oqaiast a'e 8afe of any portion of tue national territory.
 With these representations before us we cer tnnly are perpleXed to know the actual senti ment of the people of northern Mexico on the suoltcJ oi the sale of more territory to the Uni. ted States. It has for long time been in the mouths of many persons that the people of the northern country were longing to find them selves In the arms of Brother Jonathan. The reasons for this have been given: that they were tlred disgusted and di5heartened from the many changes and insecurity in this country: but the most argumentatve reason for a desire to oct into the United States has been the enhanced value that all properties would have.
 There can be no question but reasons of potent character can be found for desire on the part of the northern people to change their nationality. But powerful as these reasons may De, and notwithstanding the expressed desire of many Mexicans who have large landed interests Tn the northern States, we doubt very much if the protests of the legislatures of the States of Sonora and Chihuahua do not contain the actual sentiments of the people of that region. If such be the sentiment of the bulk of the neo. pie ot the north, certainly the act would be most unpatnotlc on the part of the people of thls region to wish to sell their brethren, who display such want of selfshness, for the gene ral good of the nation- -Merican Erf,uorl;noyy March 30.

Democratic Meeting in White County.

ASmoCIdtlC Mcet1nS ID White County.
 At meeting of the democracy of White county, at Searcy, on Saturday, May 18th, on motion of Geo. w. McCauley, esq, Col. D. Maxwell was called to the chair, and on mo- tion, Ben Johnson was appointed secretary- G. w. McCauley, esq, offered the following re- solutions, which after some discussion were adopted:
 WHEREAS The democratic senatorial con- ventlon held at Grand Glaize, on the 1st inst, for the purpose of nominating candidate to re- present this senatorial district in the next Le- gisature of Arkansas, failed to make nomi- nation, and called another convention to assem- ble Tor that purpose at Augusta in Jackson coun- ty, on the 22d inst, therefore
 ResotUed, That the chairman of this meeting appoint delegates to represent this county in said convention.
 And a0h,ereas, our sister county of Jackson having had the honor of furnishing the last Senator to represent this district, it appears but fair and just that w hte county should be allow ed to furnish the Senator this time; and whereas, the democracy of this county, did on the 17th oi April last, in convention assembled at Searcv, nominate Israel NJ. Moore as their choice for '''u tilst, dIlu Inlo convention seeing no reason why the action of said convention of April l7th should be changed-therefore,
 ResolUed, That the delegates from this coun- ty to said senatorial convention at Augusta, be and are hereby instructed to cast the vote of this county for Israel M Moore.
 And t0tereas, democratic convention of the thrd judicial circuit has been called to assem- be at Batesville on the 7th of June next, to nominate democratic candidate for Prosecuting Attorney for said circuit-therefore
 ResolOed, That the chairman of this conven- ton appoint three delegates to represent the de- mocracy of this county in said convention at Batesville
 Whereup5h, the chairman appointed H. Booth, L. l.. Irwin, E. Little Thos. Cargle and Col. Il. Brown as delegates to the senatorial convention at Augusta-and l. NJ. Moore, D. McCrae and Geo. w. McCauiey, esq, to the convention to be holden at Batesvile on Eth June next, and on motion of B. D. Turner, esq.,, the chairman W as added to the number of the last named delegates.
 On motion,
 Resol0et, That the proceedings of this meet ing be published n the True Democrat.
