A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE. Tihe 1Ierald is in the highest respect aFam- r ily.Newspaper, devoted to the material in. terests of the people of this County and the c State. It circulates extensively, and as an Advertisin-, medium offers unrivalled ad vantages. 'or Terms, see first page. The New Revised Testament. The publication of the new version of the Testament has been one of the notable events of the Nineteenth Century ; an event that touches the hearts and minds of Christian peo ple all over the world. This event is looked upon with mingled feel ings ; it is yet too new to judge what effect it will have on the popu lar mind. Even distinguished theo logians and religious leaders are in doubt whether to rejoice or to re gret. While they are fully satisfied that the revised version gives a more nearly correct translation of the original than was found in the former edition, they yet fear the effect on the public mind. The Bible has been looked upon by the multitude as sacred in every respect, and'this unsparing criticism, this changing and mutilating of many of the sweetest and most comfort ing passages in the Book, seems to the averaging mind to be degrading the Bible to the level of other books, and many tend to shake that unquestioning faith with which Christian people have heretofore regarded it. The Bible of their fathers and mothers, the Bible that they themselves have read and whose very language .they have treasured in their minds, the Bible of all Christian peoples for hundreds of years-this Bible is incorrect; it is not the true Bible, and we must give it up for a new one. This is the feeling of the average mind. Those who are scholars, who un derstand philology, translations, and all that sort of thing, can pro perly appreciate the new and re vised version, and will adopt it readily ; but the masses will, for a long time to come, prefer the old,i to which they have been accustom ed, and will have to be educated 'gradually up to a proper apprecia tion of the new. They are both merely translations from the' lan guage in which they were originally written into English. It is reason able to suppose that the later trans lation is more nearly correct ; for the revisers had not only all the facilities enjoyed by the earlier, or King James edition, but they had a great many more. The plan of revising the Bible was inaugurated in England in 1870. The best scholars of England and of America were assigned to this work. The plan was not to retranslate the Bible, but to revise it, and to correct any errors of translation that existed in the King James edition of 1611. Where theC sense and meaning of the original were clearly expressed in the for mer edition no change was to be made for the sake of better lan guage. The design was not to criti cize and improve the English of the former edition ; but only to correct the translation whenever incorrect. It is said, however, that the reviC sers have overstepped their boun daries and have made changes of anguage in many instances witht no other object than to express the same ideas in what they conside-edC more elegant English. After all the changes, the Bible remains, in all essential particulars, the same, and the ordinary reader might read I many chapter-s, or even books, with out knowing whether he is reading the old or the new version. One striking change in the new version is in the arrangement of paragraphs. The division in the former edition into chapters andt verses, as they were commonly called, was merly fictitious, and in tended simply for convenience of ~ reference. The new version is pre- r ferable in this respect, for the fre quent and sudden breaks in the former edition by this fictitious ar- 1 rangement of verses tended to con t fuse the mind of the reader. i TIhe responsibility, if we can be allowed to speak of it in that way, of introducing the new version 8 among the masses will fall princi- t pally upon the clergy. It will de volve upon them to explain to their a people just what the "new version" al is. Whenever they adopt it in the F pulpit the people will take it to0 their firesides. The ministers feel the responsibility of their position; E th will, as a gneal re,adopnt b [e new, and yet they feel that they n inst be very caiful not to jostle udelv the reverence for the old ible so deeply imbedded in the -art's Of the people. Many minis ers in New Yerk use(l the new T(s ainent the Sunday after it was aade public. Its adoption in the Mipit will be gradual, and will de >-Jid to a great extent upon the iews and wishes of the church go ng people in different sectious of he country. An excursion steamer, with six laudred people aboard, sank in the ['hames, near London. Ontario, the 4th ultimo. Over two hundred of he excursionists were drowoed. It is only the New Testament bat has been revised. The Re visers are at work on the Old Tes ament, but will not complete it for bree years. The election of U. S.

WENDSOR HOTEL, FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK, May 14, 1881. From time immemorial, the --merry Lonth of May" has been deemed the weason for rejoicing. and New York bas had, for once, her grand jubilee >er the return of spring, in the Mu.i. 3al Festival which took place last week. Noth.ing c>uld be happier than the thought of holding such a festival tt this time of the year. It was like ashering in the spring with a grand urst of melody. - The Festival was held in the Seventh Regiment Armory, whlich accommio jtes over twelve thousand people. Lhere were over two thousand miusi ians in the chorus ahd orchestra led my Dr. Damnrosch. Among thesc ere two hundred and fifty boys, whose sweet voices resembled the ;inging of seraphs in Paradise more :han anything else which fancy could suggest. The leading soloists were lime. Gerster, Miss Cary, Siguor Ja panani,and Herr Remmnertz. Eigh y thousand people attended the Fes ival, and the receipts were about ~90,000. THlE FASHIONABLE EXODUS.

Disraeli, like Thackeray, s sure to irtroduce you into good d ociety, and to keep you there until he end of the volume. Even his 'heavy villains" move in the first cir ,les and are apparently gentlemen of bigh degree. As for Carlyle, women md Americans have little reason to t] be charmed with his 'Reminiseences." The bitterness of the cynic is upon very page, and it might have been better, perhaps, for Carlyle, had some blundering housemaid stolen this MS. ilso, with which to light the kitchen ire, as did the damsel in John , Stuart Mills' houshold, who cooked the philcsophcr's breakfast with the 5rst MS. volume of Carlyle's "French Rev olution. Mr. Joiqum Miller, the "Poet of the Sierras," has settled down in New York, aud has recently published a novel entitled -The Shadows of Shasta," in whieh the cause of the poor Indian is warmly espoused, and the army handled without gloves.
