Chief Justice ChaSe's Faith.

A Washington correspondent of the
Cleveland, (O,) Herald writes f" Judge
Miller to-day, told me an interesting
fact in relation to the late Chief Justice
Chase, In conversation with him, at
Edgewood, only ten days before his
death, the Chief Justice expressed him
self as a firm believer in the inspiration
of the Bible, and the plan of salvation
as taught by the Savior He said that
early in his manhood he had brought
to the examination of the Scriptures
all the powers of his mind, and care
fully read all the lending arguments for
and against the truth of those Scrip
lures; that he had deliberately made
up his mind that the Bible was the
word of God, a divine revelation to
man, and he had never in long life
wavered in his belief He treated the
subject as he would a question of law,
and having carefully and fully exam
ined the subject, and settled it in his
own mind, that part of the law became
to him rs an axiom not to be disputed
or departed from. was interested in
hearing Judge Miller detail at length
this conversation, as it confirmed in the
fullest manner what the Chief Justice
had often said and written to me.

feeling of enmity toward any man, and
in the confident hope of the Christians
