A CunIosITY.--Dr. Sutton, of this city,
has shown us something very curious and
valuable, if genuine. 1t is an old looking
brown sheet of paper, with some writing
in German on each side, by Martin Luther
and Philip Mclanchton, with the sigma
lures of both affixed.
We give the translation Of each, as made
by Lutheran Clergyman in Louisville,
KY:

ISAIAH, 50.


"And mako this covenant with thee,
saith the Lord, my spirit that is with thee,
and my words which have put in thy
mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth,
nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor
out of the mouth of thy seeds seed, saith
the Lord from hencuforth and forever"
This word we must consider well, that
tho everlasting God is in the midst Of his
Church to cnlighten it. We are we'll pro-
tected against Turks and other tyrants in
so far as VIC love and confess the word Of
God. PnILIr MELAYcuroy.
1913.
All VIC can learn Of this curiosity is
this: II was given to Airs. Sutton by o
poor German in Louisville, in return for
some acts of kindness on her part, with
the statement that it had been handed
down in his family from the first holder,
who was q ootemporary Of Luther nni a
believer in his doctrines. We are inclin-
ed TO think it must be copy, but, if it is,
the copy must be very old. Anyhow, it is
we'll worth looking at.
