SWING ON THE BIBLE.
He wants 10 Suppress Part of the
Old Testament.

He wants 10 suppress Part of the
Old Testament.
The following remarkable proposition is
made by Rev. DIR. Swing, in the Chicago
Alliance:
Itso happens that all modern difficulties OF
any moment in the direction of the Holy
Scriptures are not difficulties with render
ing. but with the subject matter, however
interpreted. There should be in the new
versions eliminations of whole chapters and
whole books, on the grouod that they make
the sacred volume too large to be printed in
good type, and still be profitable. Asmsll
Bible means that the type is almost microt
scopic. A popular Bible should be at once
portable and of tsir, clear type, and to make
hi. possible large part of the Old Testa>
ment should be Omitted from the editions OF
the future.
Not only are the laws Of the Mosaic state
repealed and dead, and therefore unworthy
of q place 10 this guide Gf the public, but
they are the laws Of q semi~barDarous age.
and cast DO little Of their imperfection over
upon the fair pages of the New Testament.
The New Testament has suffered much from
thus being found in bad company. Those
treatises are valuable Is being part Of the
history of the Jewish state, but not rs

CrOD Prospects.

Washington, d. G., June l5.-The follow.
ing report, showing the condition Of cotton
and wheat. was issued by the department o!
agriculture to-dsy:
Cotton returns to this department show
the total increase of area planted in cotton
to be less than ! per cent more than last
year. Reports we're as follows: Forty-one
counties in North Carolina report an average
increase of four per cent; sixteen counties
in South Carolina report the
acreage the same as last year;
seventy counties in Georgia give an incrt ase
of 2 Der cent; five in Florida give decrease
of 3 per cent; fourteen in Alabama give q
decrease OF per cent; fortySone in Missis-
sippi give the same average acreage; fourteen
in Louisiana give an increase of 8 per cent;
sixty .nine in Texas give and increase OF per
cent; thirty two in Arkansas give an increase
of per cent; seventeen counties in TeDnesse
report an average of per cent. decrease
The condition is much lower, being 81 this
year against SO last year at the same time,
and SO in 1879. The weather is generally
reported ss too wet and cold, and the crop
consequently is very backward.
As to spring wheat the acreage of this crop
shows large decline since last year, and as
reported to this department is only SO per
cent of that down in 1881 The condition is
lower but fully equal to that of last year
at same time. AS to win
ter wheat the condition of this
crop is reported at an average for the whole
country of only 76 per cent. The principal
complaints are from Michigan, Indiana and
Illinois, where added To most unfavorabie
weather, there is great damage from chinch
bugs and the Hessisn fly. California reports
very low condition caused by cold weather
and drought.

THE BILL introduced in the
Senate yesterday by Mr. Garland
to provide against an interrexnum
in event of the death or disability
of both President and Vice.
President-there being NONRESIDENT
pro tenn. Of the Senate or Speaker
of the House,. may do as an lntro>
duction OF the subject Ito Congress,
but it scarcely seems to cover the
ground with proper adequaten ess.
According TO this bill the succession
will devolve upon the Secretary
Of State, the Secretary of the
Treasury, and the Secretary of War
in the order stated. A good deal
better provision.if for no other
reason than that 1t would be a
good deal surer one.-would be to
have the succession rest with the
Chief Justice OF the Supreme Court
and after him, with the Associate
Justices. In such a contingency as
would have occurred last summer
had Mr.. Arthur died, we are con-
fdent that the country would be
much better satisfied to have the
Chief Justiceswho is presumably
not an active party politician assume
charge of the Executive branch of
the Government until q new election
could be had, than it would to have
the office deyolve upon a Cabinet
officer.
