American Bible Society.

We give space in u columns to
the following circular from the sccrc-
| taries of the above societies, to their
agents, with a view of showing its
| condition and wants. MIR. ii. IL. Dob
bins is the agent Of the society at this
place:
DEAR SIR-As the financial year
of our society is now drawing towards
o close, we deem it %expcdient to call
your attention, and through you that
Of tie Auxiliaries AMI friends of the
| Society, TO our pecuniary condition.
We are now in the tenth month Of
| the current year, and we are admon-
ished of the need of prompt liberality
| to prevent a very serious falling off
in our receipts. Up to the LIST inst.
the receipts are 500 ,483 10 behind
those of last year up to this time. The
deficiency is largely in our ordinary
income from sales of books and dOna-
lions. Auxiliaries have been less
punctual in settling their accounts,
| and the ordinary donations have been
smaller and fewer than in some years
past.
But while the receipts have fallen
of, it is pleasing to know that the
work of the Society, instead of dimin-
ishing, has increased. While the re-
ceipts of II treasury are less than
those Of last year to the amount above
mentioned, the issue of books is
| greater. Last year up to tins time
our issues amounted to 1872, 595 vol
umcs; the present year they have
been 74S,40l, being 1896 more than
those of last year, though the last
month, We regret to say, has shown a
falling off. Then it should be remem-
bered that we make no profit on our
books, which are sold to purchasers
at cost, while the Society makes a
discount to A~uxiliaries of five per
cent. to pay the expenses of transport-
alton, storage, etc. This, however,
is not SO much loss to the Society,
because what the Auxiliaries do not
pay on book account, they do pay as
donations. The discount, therefore,
while it diminishes their book ac-
count. increases their donations. To
wealthy societies this is but a small
matter, but to the feeble ones it is of
some consequence, as it makes their
book accounts small, and enables
them to purchase more, thus giving
the books a freer and wider circula-
tion. The object of the Society is to
spread the Holy Scriptures, and mon
ey is asked fer only in view of doing
this more ef~fectually.
Meantime the demand for the Scrip
lures is increasing, and promises to
increase nor and more. The wants

WITH reference to the charge made
bv DIR North Side cotemporary that
the County Court unjustly allowed a
bill presented by Mr.. Mirrors, County
Treasurer, we have to say that both
the members of the Court and Mr..
Majors undoubtedly acted in con-
formity with what they understood
to be the law. If it should happen to
be found to the contrary, they are per-
sonally liable for their official acts,
and we would insist on the rigid en-
forcement of the law. We will not
shield friend or foe from just respon-
ability for their official acts. We
have no "foster children" no pets;
and when we are convinced that any
officer has overstepped the bounds of
law for his own benefit, we will not
hesitate All instant to condemn the
act. Neither shall We make such
charge of official misconduct, as u
wayward contemporary has done, until
the facts shall amply sustain the
truth of the charge. We Uniformed
the County Court carefully consulted
the statutes in relation to their action
in the instance under consideration,
and fully concluded that the claimant
was lawfully and justly entitled to
the compensation asked. To satisfy
all doubts that might exist in the
premises, we would suggest that the
Prosecuting Attorney, or s commit
tee of several attorneys, investigate
the question and make a full report
in relation thereto. In justice to all
concerned, we ask that such action be
taken.
