The Revised Bible.

The Independent is strongly in favor
of using the revised version of the Bible
in the church, and puts the matter in
this way: "The proper question should
be whether minister has any right to
nse any other than the revised version of
the New Testament. We hold that he
has not. We hold that it is wrong to
use the common version, when the re-
yised version can be had for fifteen
cents. It is question simply of loyalty
and reverence for Gods inspired Word.
Here are two accessible versions, one
made from comparatively imperfect
text by the inexaet scholarship of over
two centuries ago; the other made from
a carefully studied text, by the much
nicer scholarship of to-day, and by q
more imposing body of scholars. Which
version best represents the inspired
original is not question in dispute. It
is agreed, by all whose opinion is worth
considering, that, barring some points
of mere English style, the new version is
very great advance on the old. That
being the case, one who uses in worship
the old does, to the extent of the differ
ences between the two, disguise and con-
cea1 the Bible from his congregation. He
reads what is not Gods Word when he
can read what is His Word. He reads
in many passages wrong sense Or nom
sense, in place Of good sense. He does
this because he gives King James revis-
ers the reverence which belongs only to
the Holy Spirit.

DIR. HENLEY'S TRIUMPH.
The Final Fruition OF Life OF scientlssc
Labor.
MIaD ovER MATrEK.

There is no man on the Pacific coast who has
established so widespread and honorable rep
utation as chemist and compounder of valuable
medic nes as DR.. Henley OF this city. Having
resided on the western slope of the contine MT tor
period OF thirty four years, twenty of which
have been passed in this city, DR.. Henley is en-
inently qualified by experience as well as scien-
tic attainments to understand the peculiarities
of this climate, the diseases most TO be guarded
against and the remedies for their cure. The
Doctor has put upon the market, in the past,
many medical preparations that have won world
wide fame for their excellence The people have
learned from experience to place implicit conf
dence in what he says, because he never has de-
ceived them. But his greatest triumph Is his
last, which is tonic just put on the market, be-
ing an extract of CELERY, BEEF and IRON. This
is compounded and put up in common sized bot
ties, diluted in pure condensed wine. A dose is
q wine gassful to be taken as often as the stom-
ach and sy stem seem to require the tonic and
nourishment. 1t is as delicious as it is nutri-
tious. One pound of the extract contains the en-
tire nutrment contained in forty pounds of the
finest of beef The medical qualities Of the cell
cry are well known as being terative, tonic and
sedative, while the purest aud best preparation
of iron added, forms combination of medical
properties never before equaied. This unequaled
discovery of DIR. Henley is now to be had at his
place of business on Morrison street, between
Fourth and Fifth, opposite Multnomah block. in

use and Its qualities and efficacy as an innocent
but certain builder up of debilltated
systems are becoming known to all who havs
tested its virtues

Seven Wonders Of Corea.

s'The seven wonders of Corea are as
follows, says an English traveller: "The
first is a certain hot mineral spring near
q place called Kin-shintao, the healing
properties of which are believed to be
miraculous. Its virtues are in constant
vigor, and 80 great are they that they
have never failed in efficacy within the
memory of man. No matter what dis
ease may afi1ict the patient, dip in
these healing waters will prove as sure q
cure as bath in Jordan did to leprous
Naamar. The second wonder is also
connected with water. There are two
springs situated at considerable dis
tance from each other-in fact, there is
The Douglas independent. [volume] (Roseburg, Or.) 187?-1885, 1883-05-26

almost the breadth of the entire penin-
sula between them. These have two Pc
charlottesville one is full, the other is
empty; and the Coreans seem to believe
that somewhere deep in the bowels OF
the earth there is q mysterious tide,
which ebbs and flows with marvellous
rapidity at stated intervals of time, filling
one spring while it empties the other.
But the strangest part of the phenome-
non is that the water is 30 strongly sweet
that whatever is cooked Ill it, no matter
how bad it may be of itself, Immediately
acquires most delicious taste. The
third is called Gold Wind Cavern. There
is cave somewhere In the mountains,
in which mysterious wind blows per-
petually-a wind SO cold as to pierce to
the very bones, and so strong that the
most powerful man is unable to stand up
against it. The fourth wonder is the in
eradicable forest. There is large
grove of pine trees that sprout again di-
rectly they are cut down. It matters
| not what injury is done to the root
nothing will avail to destroy it, but mp
| it will sprout again in time, like phe-
nix from its own ashes. The fifth won-
der is still more wonderful still. This
| is floating stone; and temple has
been reared in its honor, called the Fou
Shih Mao. In front of the temple
stands, or appears to stand. the extra
ordinary stone. It is of great bulk, and
sort of irregular cube in shape. To all
appearance it is resting on the ground /,
and perfectly free from all support on
any side. But if two men, standing at
opposite ends of it, hold each the oppo-
site ends of thread they will find them
selves able to pass the thread under the
stone without encountering any obsta-
Gle. In other words, the stone is actu-
ally lowering little way above the
earth. The sixth wonder also consists
of a stone. but a stone of a more prac.
tically useful nature. 1t is called the
warm rock, and forms the summit of q
hill upon which there is pavilion, OF
klosque, for the benefit of travellers
Here they may rest and pass the night
However cold the weather may be, there
is no stove, nor any need for one; the
stone On which the resting-room stands
diffuses its wonderful and benigr
!, warmth through every room in it, ant
the poorest may bask in its comfort
i The seventh wonder is drop of tn,

graphic work. His gallery is large and con-
venienty arranged, and as far as beauty is con-
cerned, is one of the handsomest on the Pacific
coast The work done at Mr.. Towne's is unex-
celled anywhere, for he keeps abreast of the

1 MT, H. c. Pease and wife for1nerly Miss Young of Philadelphia have been passing several days at the old homestead. MT. Pease is native of this town and son of Deacon D. Cone Pease. A few years ago he went 10 Pennsylvania and r,ew J-r- sey, in which latter state he now lesides. MT. Pease is the repr- sentative jor his state of a large wholesale boot aud shoe house located in Phi ,adelphia. In addi- tion to his special vocation he has dvoted some time to agricultural pursuits, and has been very successful. The numerous vegetable products common to all sections he has brought to great perfection, but none more so than the esculent pea, wh ch is so delectabl to the epicure. His table is furnish. nearly all the year round with choic- variety of young Pease. Those who have been fortunate enough, as guests, to be seated around his table will, we are confident, gladly endorse this statement. The stay among us of MT. P, ase and his amiable wife has been all too short, and we trust that they will soon again favor their numerous friends here with their presence. l The entertainment on Friday evening, the l4th inst. in which Prof. Hubbard, the elocntlonis' made his first appearance in our village, was pronounced most de- lightful occasion by all present, and much regret is felt that more of our people could not have heard this genial gentleman's reading. Such opportunities are few in couniry places.

COVENTRY.
SOUTH COVENTRY.

A child of Aaron Wolfe of Rockville, and grand daughter of Mrs. Charlotte Hodgson, which died of diphtheria, was inferred in the cemetery here last week. Remember the Christmas concert at the Methodist church Monday evening. The ladies' aid society meets at Thos. M. Dunham's on Potash Hill this p. m, and evening.
 Three scholars from Dist. 1 attend school in Dist 2. We think it is about time for Dist. 2 to have an appropriation large enough to extend the school year about four weeks, as there are children at- teoding school there who are worthy of ex- ts4ded advantages.
 In the distance, that portion of the farm of Royal Rose, where the stone puller has been used, looks as the forest must have looked where the ten brothers of the legend cut up the Mishemokwa, and we doubt not the profit to those who tiled that land will be as great as that the ten brothers enjoyed.
 Mrs. Nancy P. Hutchinson is ill of typhoid fever.
 HI nry F. Parker has not b en able to work at his shop for several days, owing to wound on his hand, which was made by an OK.

Prof. K,on's familiarity with his subject aud easy conversational style make him very interesting speaker, and his black board ,llustl ations and large vari ty of specimens taken from the deep explain many things which language could not readily make plan. We hope the people of our nelghboring towns will have an op- portunity to hear the profee ssor and be- come acquainted with him.
 We understand MT. Pixley has bought the Zenas Loomis farm, and intends to cut off he timber. He has also bought 8 valuable timber lot of [. P. Gager, and will set up his ste4m saw mill on one of the two soon. This wi. make three steam saw mills in operation in this parish.
 Il. B. Royal is teaching the South school stead of A. W. Forb-s, who is en- saged in other business, and requested the district to release him.
