Why the Bible was Revised.

Ia lG I a Puritan suggested TO King
James the need of new translation The
Bishop OF London objected King James
approving, shortly appointed filty-tour
translItors, recommended them TO 'ltv-
ings Of twenty pounds and upwards " and
work was begun IN 1907 by forty-sevcn
translators, working IN six companies,
each company taking IT. part of The work.
The final revision was made by delegates,
two from each Of the COMPANIES Work
was over in 1910 three years.
On MAY p 1870 the Church of Eng
land in C~onvocation Of Canterbury re
solved to revise again aot to make a
new trauslation-t0 revise the old trans
latIon, keeping as closely to the familiar
language and style Of the current version
as possible. Traneiators were named aud
formed into companies. The first meet
ing was held in the following June. In
july American cooperation was sought,
and two years later was got The first
American meeting was held In October
1872, and the work was finished 10 1854.
The English and American r~evisors
necess rlly worked apart and compar,d
results, the English having the higher
authority TO control the text, the Amen
cans having tue Tlgnt 10 record the +
criticisms in an appendix published in
both countries. The result II what was
aimed at, one version acceptable to the
scholars Of both halves OF the English
speaking world.
Errors Of translation have been r.
moved. The new learning of a Iarlc
number Of the most etplnent Iietraist-
and biblical scholars Of both countries
has shone 90 the text. The advance in
non-theologIcal science in the past two
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. years is such
as to give trauslators new hight on their
work.
The Bible translated by men who
knew little Of anything but language is
II thing their work revised with at
least an equal skill in language, and
with modern knowledge Of everything
else, may be quite another thing. Think
OF a treatise on physiology, written be
tore the discovery OF the circulation Of
the blood; on astronomy written when
the earth was believed to be the center
OF things; OF alchemy before the day Of
chemistry; on theology before RELIGIOUS
Liberty was understood.

We Call the Previous Question

and at last our friend Of the Farmer
and Mechanic has been affected by the
carpet Dagger custom and calls members
OF the Legislature Hon" Alas alas
- Wilmington Star.
Fallen at last?-Kinston Free Press.
Oh come now. Brethren, you ought'nt
to sit down upon US in such a precIpi-
tate and utterly regardless fashion. Dun
sin is neither Heinous nor Hangous; It
is only "Hon"-est.
Besides you must remember that ye
carping "Carpetbagger" hath carpet
bagged himself off from our Legislative
carpets; and Old King Commonwealth
hath come into his again.
True the misuse Of a title IS It's abuse;
but surely the elected Representative OF
a county is entitled to ONE distinction:
aud if the people clamor for the sub
division Of counties until each township
has a member OF the Legislature none
the less is he one OF the lawmakers Tor
the whole State. Further, the Farmer
and Mechanic is always anxious to save
type and time. 1t is certainly easier to
print Hon. Je Whilikeus OF Rham-
katie than to say-"Mr. Jehosaphat
Whilikens, member of the General As
semby from the county Of Rhamkatte. :
Indeed, the title Of Hon. OF Hon
orable, is the oldest and most legitimate
that can be used in this country. II our
memory be not at fault there was a biz
row on the question Of titles during tue
first month of the National Congress IN
1877. 1t took its rise in the tactIonal
fight between the observation-disclosures, -
and the States Rights men. Congress
appointed a Committee to arrange the
new titles, and they reported that the
| President ought TO be called-"HS
Hiqhness, tie President Of the United
States and Protector Of Their Ltber-
ties - and that Senators should be
dubbed Most H0norable;" while Rep
resentatives and all lesser public officers
including members of Cabinet should be
simply Honorable"
There was a very hot debate over the
matter,-which also set the whole coun-
try by the ears. We do not recall II
any decisive action was taken; but the
practice became fixed to use the title.
In an old book the other day w noticed
this sentence-"Mrs. Washington was
accompanied by the lady OF the Honor,
able Robert Morris, and also the Most
Honorable Philip Schuyler
SCHUYLER was Senator from New \ Ork.
But, Brethren, rest easy: we Will cal.

A TRAMP THROUGH FRANKLIN CoUN-
TY.-Perhaps 10 people In the State are
more notable for their hospitality than
the true citizens of Franklin. 1t was my
pleasure to make a wandering survey Of
the northern part of the county from the
road leading to Louisburg to Cedar Rock.
My p~artiality certainly goes to this u
ty if it goes anywhere, though not a ma
tive OF the county my ancestry dates far
back into the early history Of it. | am
reminded Of the whole-souled hospitality
of MessrS. William J. King, Kicks Boon,
W. I. Collins, n. Gupton, Jack Brew
er, John A. May, Thomas Gill. A.
W. Pearce, John Allen, Mark STAN

could name but for fear Of your space.
1t is indeed a pleasure to be among
such people. Besides their industry
they are noted for intellectual traits.
and many oftheir homes are made bright
and charming by fairy queens. After
spending several days in the country. |
made my way to the country seat,
Louisburg. This is a beautiful and
pleasant place. and the same kind Of
hospitality is met with as in the country.

When there is any swindliug going
on the farmer is the first and the last to
suffer. He is regarded as legitimate

after all to learn that when the new com

agriculture went into office he found in
the treasury just $35 to the credit of his
bureau Statesville Landmark.

The LATE SAD EVENT. Being on the
point of going to press early on Wedues-
day last, we could only make a brief note
in relation to the death of Col. VIM. H.
Crow. His body vas not found 10 the
Confederate cemetery, but in alot a short
distance to the south west Of the Gene
terry gates. His wanderings extended to
the extreme northern suburbs of the city,
where he made inquiry for his son John
(who lives in Wilmington;) and showed
his bewildered mind in various ways.
His mental state has been unsettled for
several months; but it was not continu-
ously SO. and was due largely to physical
ailments and depression. which as is often
the case we're greatly increased BY the
excessive heat of the first hot DAYS in
spring, He had an high regard for his
wife, and kissed her affectionately before
goin G down town to purchase the fatal
pistol. In his pocket was fouod a note
dated a week before his death leaving all
his property in her hands. His life was
insured for SIS, 900 to $40, 900. The re
gretful sensation and sympathy of the
public was more manifest over the sad
affair than we have ever known in Raj
eigh. The funeral was largely attended
by all classes of citizens. and the floral
offerings were very profuse. The pail
bearers were the officers of the church:
Elders l.. E. Heartt, E. G. Reade, A. NJ.
McPhecters, w. s. Primrose, s. W.
Whiting; d~eacons, julius Lewis, W. G.
Stronach, Chas. W. Dabney, Jr., Eugene
L. Harris, B, R. Harding, A. Baumann,
l.. u, Heartt, and f R. Stamps. The
members Of the Raleigh Board of Under
writer's, Of which the deceased was Presi-
dent, attended the funeral 10 a BODY. led
by the vice president. Mr.. T. I. Hay.
This board sent as floral tokens of its
regard a star and cross of dollhouse flow
ers and elaborate in design. Many OF
State papers have alluded very kindly to
the deceased who had a wide scquaint-
ance.

INSANITY IN THE UNITED STATES
Twenty years ago the number of insane
persons in the United States was only
"a 042. In 1870 it had reached 37,432,
In 1886 treatment was required for 81, :
959 lunatics. From 1870 to 1880 the in
crease IN sanity was nearly $50 per cent,
while that of the whole population was
about rs. The figure do not. however,
represent actual increase, but during this
period a arge number of insane persons
previously concealed were brought to
public notice by more thorough ~investi
cation. ln America, a part from several
large county asylums, there are eighty
States and forty private institutions for
the care of the insane, and a proper ca
pacity for about 20, 900, but containing
53, 1872, thus leaving probably Is, 600 to
be cared for elsewhere. The proportion
of insane IN greater in New England,
while the increase has been most rapid
in the " estcrn States. In the State of
New ork there are thirty-hye iustltu-
ions tor the care OF those unfortunate
people, accommodating l., 343 patients,
while it Is SAID hat there are 4, 200 pro,
vided for at home.
