DEATH OF MOSES.

PLYMOUTH, Ind, July 3.-In your last weeks
issue Of Friday or Saturday noticed ques-
tion to the following effect, viz: If Moses was
the writer Of the first five Books OF the Blbie'
how happened the last chapter OF Deuteronomy
to contain al account Of his death and burial:
As the qucstioncr seemed candid, allow me
to suggest to his mind the fact that the Bible
was not originally divided into chapters and
verses, nor had each book a distinct heading or
title, Hence when the division was marie the
co1npilcrs very properly added the first chapter
Of Joshua to te last Of pen.er9nomy ,ns because
netrd his history. The same thing occurs i'll one
other Instance in the Bible, and also in many
books which have been written since that time
It IS an old objection, and originated with Paine
Whc,. he found al account OF an authors death
appended to his writings In any other instance,
he never thought of arguing thcreironl. that
those productions were not genuine. stu IN
his anxiety to 6nd something whth sya m'sn. e IN
scnts this with MANY other objections equally
absurd. Res especially, MRS. L. " hEED.

OF her high RINK and royalty
Looked she i Queen-aye, yes, QUEEN
Tut o 50 simple In her ways!
To YOU and ne, to all, spoke she
OF brighter lands and better days.

A Love that liyes-~a Love that gives

Then, pointing to her sister ofos'
Each one star OF brightest hue:
.sTheae arc nv iovet-tncse are my ao7es-
These are the friends forever true.
Thus did revel in sweet thought;
When looked ! into mine own heart,
The long lost years, the food OF teaIs
came rushing with torrents smart.
IlooScd beliind-the billowa passed;
l looked before-the tranquil sen;
looked abUre-and @ what love,
Diyinely sweet, looked down on me!
As II to lift an erring child,
and break the bonds OF Sin and Shame,
, And. like mother meek and mild,
To bring it back to whence It came-
So looked she then-Eo looks she now
So looks she ever, to invite
Both you and ne. and all. to see,

MOODY AND SANKEY.

A recent number OF the Standard criticised
the action of the pastorc Of this city for exclud
fnran invitation to:Alr. Moody to resume his re-
ylyal work in the fall, and protested against it
for the following reasons:
l. The results to the churches are undesirable
and unhappy lin their tendency to bfeak down
merge it in a broad and sentimental religositT.'
= s.T The work ~ deprectates the value OF church
relationships, and the efficiency Of church systems
OF spiritual labor.
8. it encourages "1isht and superficial views Of
1hc essentially grand ana earnest nature OF the
Christian life
The Interior categorically answers these OBJ
jections to the return OF Mr Moody, ana hatiy
ever. 1t says:
j. We hare never known any revival to make go
vivid the consciousness Of personal responsloii,
~ Every man responsible for his neighoor, and
