INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THE BIBLE.

The friends of the Bible have never done
sll that might have been accomplished In
spreading it through the world, but it is graf
flying to know that there has been zeal in
its behalf such as the world has never wit
messed concerning any other book.
What a passion, as we may call it, for
translating this volume. By the middle of
the second century there we're three Greek
versions of the Old Testament, besides the
Septuagint. And earlier than these came the
PeshitO- Syriac, including the Old and New
Testaments about the same time appeared
the Latin, or the old Italic. By the end of
the fourth century the scriptures were trans
lated in whole or in part, into Coptic, Sahi-
die, Armenian, Ethiopic and Gothic. The
Bible now speaks about two hundred Ian
guages, and is daily learning to speak more.
It is not in bulk more than the three hum
dreth part of the extant Greek and Roman
literature, but there has been concentrated
upon it more thought, and it has probably
produced more works in its explanation and
defence, than all that literature put together.
Z" In walking through any great library
(ssys late and distinguished author Sin
any large catalogue (ss that of the
British Museum or the Bodleian) one is as
tonished at the immense bulk of literature
which, either directly or indirectly, owes its
origin to this book. 1t is surprising to see
how large portion of the huge London cat
alogue is made up of books which, had it not
been for this one, would never have had an
existence"
And not in translation only, but in its cir |
,ulstiOn also, has this zeal been manifested |
During the year 1872, 4,S14 works of all
kinds, (includiDg pamphlets, but not sermOns)
we're published in London. If We make
LIBERAL allowance of 1000 copies to each, then
he copies of this one blessed book issued in
London, exceeds the half of all these put TO-
the issues of the British and
Foreign Bible Society we're 1882, 1856 copies.
And the American Bible Society has also
performed similar work. Blessed be God
or an enterprise SO glorious Who would
lot rejoice in the privilege of aiding it in its
loly, heavenly mission OvERToN.

EVERYTHING BUT THE BIBLE 1t is re-
lated of Napoleon that when Marshall DurOc,
an avowed infdel, was once telling very
improbable story, giving his opinion that it
was true, the Emperor remarked: "There
are some men who are capable of believing
everything but the Bible" This remark
finds abundant illustrations in every age
There are men all about US, ct the present
day, who say they can not believe the Bible;
but their capacities for believing everything
that opposes the Bible are enormous.
The most fanciful speculstions that bear
against Gods word pass with them for de-
monstrated facts. The greediness with which
they devour the most far.fetched stories
the Aimsiest arguments, if they only appear
to initiate against the word of Gods as
tOnishing.

PASSING BY.
1im that Jesus Of Nazareth pass.

And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth pass
eth BY"
orieh man, from your happy door,
Seeirg the old, the sick, the poor,
Who ask for nothing, scarcely weep,
To whom even heaven means only sleep;
While you, given good things without measure,
Sometimes can hardly sleep for pleasure;
Let not the blessed moment fly;
Jesus Of Nazareth passes by.
Is there q sinner, tired of sin,
Longing q new life to begin?
But all the gates of help are shut,
And all the words of love are mute;
Esrth's best joys sere, like burnt-up grass,
And even the very heavens as brass;
Turn not away so pitilessly-
Jesus of Nazareth passes by.
selfhArdened man, of smooth, bland smile;
Woman, with hes.t like desert isle
Set in the sea Of household love,
Whom nothing save "the world can move;
At your white lie, your sneering speech,
Your backward thrust no sword can reach,
Look, your child lifts wondering eye
Jesus OF Nazareth passes py.
Oh, all ye foolish ones, who feel
sudden doubt, like piercing steel,
When your dead hearts within you burn,
And conscience sghs, Return, return"
Why let ye the sweet impulse feet,
Loves wave wash back from your tired feet
Knowing not Him who came so nigh
Jesus of Nazareth passing by?
he must not pass Hold Him secure;
In likeness of His helpless poor;
Of many q sick soul, sin-beguiled;
In innocent face of little child;
Clasp Him-quite certain it is He
In every form of misery;
And when thou meets Him up on high,
Be sure he will not pass thee by.
Good Words.

Per cent
of col. Ia

There can be no impropriety in calling at
tention to the fact&hat West Hanover is the
"banner Presbytery, as regards the mea-
sure of attention given to the collections re-
quired. The institution of comparison be-
tween the PresbyterieS as to the average
amount given per member, does injustice to
those whose congregations are financially
weak. But it is altogether fair to compare
the degrees of attention given to the matter
of afOrding the people an opportunity to
give; for in this respect all stand upon an
equality, both of opportunity and ability.
The number of churches contributing to
all six of the regular objects has more than
doubled within two years; and in this respect
every Presbytery has made an advance.
