tsrday forenoon Row Q. B. Boyntop, Chaplain Of
the House Of Representatives, preached, In that
hall, 10 quite large audience considering the dis
agreeable weather then prevailing. The founda-
ton Of his discourse was" And beginning at
Moses and all tas prophets, he expounded unto
them In all tho scriptures the things concerning
himself Lake, xiv, 81. These words, the
minister said, were the words Of our Saviour to
Peter and bis companions, on the day he arose from
the tomb. There are three methods tho worthy
divine said OF studying the Scriptures, viz LIST,
By commencing with preconceyed opinions, with
the mind made up as to the correct Interpretation
Of certain passages Of the Scriptures; "a, by ex-
peoting TO gather something from isolated pas
ssgesi and Sd, by studying the Bible as taught by
Jesus to his disciples oonneotedyi and no book
DO studied dissonnectedly. The Bible he deemed
ono connected story, Of which Jesus Is the con.
quering hero. IL was unit--s continuous history
II was an admitted fact that God 10 ruler over
all and controlled the destinies Of ALL II was also
admitted that In tho starry heavens Satan organised
rebellion Of angels against God, and the speedy
fall OF this arch.robe the result. This was be-
fore the fall Of man. Il was long afterwards that
Christ Jesus fastened to the rescue Of taieu man,
and, by their own crucifxion, ntoned for his sins
Cain became the bead Of the opposing power to
God, and likewise the inventive branch Of mankind
Abel, who was tlain by his brother, represented,
through Seth. the God serving portion Of mankind
These facts the speaker mentioned to show that the
main elements Of mankind remained, as yet, the
same. DR.. Doynton 'next related tho fact that
Jesus reignsd personally over the Jews, a. their
king and law-giver. for q period Of one thousand
years. on the throne Of David, and on the cross on
which be was shamefuIly put to death were placed
the words King Of the Jews.' The subject was
handled 10 able manner, and was listened to with
profound attention and iStorest by the audience.

The AMERICAN BIBLE UNIoN-Yesterday
at O'Clock p. m, at the Calvary Baptist Church,
corner Of Eighth and II streets, Rev Dr. Westcott,
corresponding secretary Of the said Union, treated
on the Works and Wants" of the Union, and
dwelt at considerable length on the effort. now
being made and the expense being incurred, in re-.
rising the Scriptures, which have undergone con.
siderable revision since 1911. No time or expense
has been spared, the speaker said, in having the
Bible properly explained. It Is taken up BY tho
book, and each word and limo is carefully consid-
cred by men Of no moan intellect, who are we'll
yorsod, respectively, In Hebrew, Greek. Latin, 30
I'D the same work passed and fepossed through
thee learned divines' hands More than this, no
society could do more towards making perfect
revision % the Scriptures, and II Is impossible for
oil this time and expense to be expended without
shedding some nsw light. The Union has circu.
lated 40 900 900 pages Of the New Testament in the
last six years.
The Scriptures have been freely circulated in
Germany, France, Spain, China, and elsewhere,
printed In the languages Of those countries. To
the freedmen Of the South none there have been
issued 20, 900 copies Of the new testament, and
many more to the white families Of the came sec.
ton, they having sent many to the army with their
relatives that never returned, thus causing a
scarcity The learned Doctor represented the Union
in Hourisbing condition, being $l1 900 ahead of
the close Of last year and everything appeared to
encourage the association to renewed excrtions.

The JAIL GUARDS OUT IN THE CoLD.-The
Second Comptroller of the Treasury, we are in
formed, has notified the guards Of the District Jail
that, according to his construction of the law
granting the twenty per cent. to certain employees
Of the Government, and notwithstanding the fact
that they are connected with tho Interior Depart.
ment they are not entitled to toe twenty per cent
We are sorry these worthy officers Of tho Govern
ment have thus been deprived of the benefits of
this law. Their duties are severe and almost con-
tinuous. At best they are continued on duty for
long intervals and when one happens to bscnme
sick their duty Is almost unhearRble. Let Con-
gress not eight these worthy men while they are SO
lavish with the Government funds.
