THE NEW TESTAMENT REVISION.

The revised edition of the New
Testament was issued in New York
on the Goth of May. 1t was issued
in London on the same day. The
entire edition was telegraphed to one
or more of the Chicago papers op the
same day. There is hardly a doubt
that the revised edition of the Scrip
tur.s will replace the old one SO far
as the Protestant reading communii y
is concerned. Only the New Testa-
rnent is now ready. The Old Testa
ment Scriptures will not be ready for
some months. 1t is not yet certain
what may be the action of the Amer
can Mble Soaiety touching the re-
vision. That great and powerful so
ciety was organized to circulate the
Scriptures according to the King
James translation, or according to
tine version now in use among Protes-
tants. 1t has large amount of funds
From legacies and other sources held
III its corporate capacity for the one
purpose of printing and circulating
this specific version. Some twenty
years ago or more 1t was proposed by
number of scholars and critics to
strike out the readiness or table of
contents affixed to each chapter, be-
cause these lines were often mislcad-
ing, erroneous and even abfurd.
They formed no part OF the inspired
text. But the religious conservatism
of the times was shocked, and strong
remonstr went up TO the Bible
Society, which for many years there
after'continued to publish over each
chapter the absurd analysis of con-
tents, because many Bible readers
regarded these lines as sacred, and
even inspired, although they were
orl lglnally placed there hy some one
Eof very limited exegetical learning
Thus, we have in the Psalms of Da-
vid a prefaratoly declaration that
this and that one refer to Christ, or
the Messiah, and in the prophetic
parts of the Scriptures, as in Isaiah,
the headlines undertake 20 give an
Interpretation of passages about which
even the most critical scholars are
not agreed. These headlines Of
course stricken out, because they are
a mere human commentary, and
very erroneous one. The present di-
vision OF chapters and verses, which
was always an arbitrary one, discard

The New York Financial Chronicle

The New York Financial Chronicle
discusses the question Of the future
money supply at some length. 1t re.
fers to the fact that the call for the
coupon SIS matured on the 18th inst,
but adds that the bonds come in slowly,
and, moreover, do not come to the New
York subtreasurv. but are required to
be sent to Washington. The latest re-
port shows that only 100000 have
been surrendered, and a. the loan was
a large one, and as many Of the cou-
pom bonds are doubtless held abroad, it
is possible that some time will elapse
before all are surrendered. On the 1st
Of September, interest amounting to
s2,S12,500 will be due on the Il e
cents, and on the 1st Of October 81 :
3S6,939 interest will be payable on the
1 p cents, besides the principal OF the
registered 5 p cent. bonds, of which it
is estimated about s30,000,000 will be
paid altogether, and which have been
called for redemption on that date.
The pension payments, which aggre-
gate about s10,000,000 at the New
York office, will commence on Septem-
Der lst. but these are disbursed in
small amounts, so that the effect upon
the market would be scarcely percep-

ALPENA WEEKLY ARGUS.
Wednesday, Aug''st 81, 1881.

The latest news from the President
up to Yesterday seemed TO indicate that,
although he was very low, his symptoms
were no worse than they had been for
several DAYS, and yet the chances for
his recovery are daily growing more
gloomy. From the very first up to
within the past week, the attending
physicians and nurses have had, or
seemed TO have every confidence in the
ultimate recovery Of the President ;
but his condition is no better, and in
deed he is continually growing weaker,
dav by dav, until we may not be sur
prised 10 hear at any moment that the
end has come. His blood seems to be
poisoned, so that his whole system is
affected, and at last he has himself
become discouraged as TO the prospects
of ever recovering. There was slight
rally on Saturday evening last, but that
did not have the effect to encourage
any one. and ere morning he had again
grown worse, and at last the ever faith
full and watchful wife was forced to the
conviction that death must result IN at
most a few short days.

The Shore Road.

A gentleman in this city, who had
recently conversed with parties engaged
in the Shore Railroad project, informed
the railroad commissioner Of The Cour-
Ter. that a survey Of the road had been
made to Freeland, and those interested
whom he conversed stated that they did
not believe that it was the intention to
stop at Standish. The road from STAN
dish to Freeland will run through n
fine country, and nothing would be
gained by stopping at Standish, rs
freight would have to run over the
Central to Bay City, whereas, by run
ming the road to Freeland, and then to
East Saginaw this city would be the
terminal point, an advantage not to be
moderated. IF an independent line
was built from Standish to Bay City it
would cost as much as to run the line
to Freeland, and Bay City would con-
tribute nothing substantial to the con-
struction of the road TO that point.
What is desired by those interested in
the project is an independent line to
the Saginaw river, and they are salts
fed that by running to East Saginaw
they will not only secure substantial
aid in the construction of the road,
but greater benefits in the way Of trade
and connections with other roads. At
East Saginaw, the gentlemen argued,
they could not only connect with the
different divisions of the Michigan
Central, but obtain direct connection
with both divisions of the Flint d Pere
Marquette, the Saginaw Valley q St.
Louis road and its western connections,
but the Saginaw, Huron d Tuscola,
and Port Huron q Northwestern roads.
If the people of East Saginaw do their
share they can secure the terminal
point of this road, and there is no
doubt but the moment the time arrives
that they will step TO the front with
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Courier.

Tie Electric Light in saw Mills.

The lighting OF saw mills with the
electric light is now being tried IN
various parts of the country, under
different conditions. and lis utility and
economy will be fully tested. That
the light in itself is adopted to the pur-
pose, there can be no doubt, and when
i. hall be fairly demonstrated that the
machinery for its production can be
pun by the mill machinery and produce
a steadv light at less cost than Is in
volvtl in the Use Of other means Of
lighting, or that the reduction in the
fire risk or the amount Of additional
work accomplished shall be sufficient
TO offset any increase in the expense,
the electric light will eventually come
into general use. The light is used in
the NcGraw mill, in this city, and in
some Of the larger mills in the west
and Canada. with fairly satisfactory re-
suits
The experiment Of running the mill
machinery is being tried at Alpena, in
the bay .hore mill Of Fletcher, Pack
IL Co., which was lighted for the first
time ON The 18th inst. The light is
furnished by Maxim generator, run
by the mill machinery. The mill Is
one Of the best saw mills in the state
and contains the latest improvements
steam feed for the circular saws,
cant turner's, live rollers, patent edgers
and every modern appliance. The up
+ per story of the mill has three electric
lights. which. it is said by the local
papers illuminate the large room al
most equal to the light of day. Each
lamp ha: an Illuminating power equal
to that Of two hundred candles. The
Argus says. There Is a slight flicker
TO the lights, which Is caused by the
mill machinery running a little faster
at some times than at others. When
the saws are cutting logs there is a
slight check on the motion Of the en-
CINE, and the machinery works some
what slower than when the saws are
not cutting. rs the same power that
drives the mill machinery also drives
the electrical machine-the result is
that the electric machine is run at
different yelocities, and thus occasions

Saws the Lansing Journal: Two
facts worth remembering are One, that
when in North Carolina the Democratic
party divided on the temperance ques-
ton, the Republicans went nearly solid
with the whisky faction, and buried
prohibition under an immense major

The Republican Split in virginia.

The situation of the Republicans IN
Virginia is thus summed up:
The Republicans Of Virginia, after
stormy convention split in two fac
tons over the question as TO whether
they should nominate a straight ticket
or support the Malone party. The
Malone men. by the aid Of the Nd
mini,tration at Washington, prevailed.
and the Convention voted no, to NOM
mate State ticket. The minority
b1lted. and held another convention,
which selected a Straight-out Republic
can ticket, headed by Gen. W. G.,
Wickham for Governor, Gen. WICK
ham made a speech bitterly dcuouucing
the coalition with Malone, but declined
to lead the straight Republicans. The
Straight-outs thereupou voted TO leave
the question Of nomination to the State
Committee, and adjourned. 1t Is said
that il is probable that many of them
will support Mr.. Daniel, the Democrat
ic nominee. The political observer
outside of Virginia will almost despair
Of getting a clear idea of the situation
in that State, with Resd-justers and
Funders and Coalitionists and Deb
PAYERS and Straight-outs vociterating
their claims to popular support. Ii
will simplify the situation to bear il
mind that the Administration at Wash
ington is trying to make Virginia Re
publican by dividing the opposition
and that for this purpose it is using
Malone. AT the election for Presiden
last year the combined Malone anC
Republican vote was 1915, while
the Debt-Paying Democrats polled 50,
/ 40
