BERNARD.' WILMINGTON, IT. C. Saturday Evening, Aug, 16,' 18S4. EVENING EDITION. CONCERNING THE REVISION OF THE SCRIPTURES. i The rftvisers of the Old Testament have completed their labors, j Next spring the result will be laid before the Christian world.! The British Committee becan tneir labors in a Westminster Abbey 22nd June, 180. The American Committee, of which Rev. Dr. Philip Schaff is the Presi dent, began their work 4th October, 1872. ; In all eighty-two scholars have been engaged upon thisgreat undertaking. On the New Testa- ment there were 'twenty-five British ,f and fifteen American ' scholars em 7 ployed representing several Christian bodies. They were all reputed to be men of learning, of ability, of rare Biblical knowledge. They were at work for more than ten years on the New Testament. Men who were not of the committee, and some of whom doubtless thought themselves slight ed, haVe been very severely , criti cising the New Testament revision. The opinion has : grown that . the work is too imperfect to supersede the translation" made ia King James I. time over ; 270 years ago. If ' this bo so, it is not. .,, credita ble - to , modern . scholarship and critical insight. eighty-two had devoted learned men who their lives to the studv of the Holy Scriptures, after ten years -of icon? scientious and close, labor upon the New Testament, can not improve upon the revision or, translation if you please, of King James's scholars a revision or version that ten thou-' sand scholars have corrected here and. there as the occasion demanded, and that contains errors of an im portant character as all learned Bib lical scholars of all churches acknowl edge, then it' is ' not creditable, we ! repeat, to their literary skill, their critical ability, their erudition. v But is the criticism true? ' - : -The Westminster; revisers have al t together an advantage ver.f the James revisers in the j progress . that has been made, in a; more critical knowledge: of the Greek, in a com ; pleter apparatus every way "for" un derstanding the original text and in a purer and better Greek text. Among the British . and Ameriean revisers ib mcu wiiu DLuiiu at mc very front in both countries ' for profound scholarship and superior abilities, .And still numerous critics, have de i clared that their work is a complete failure ; and can - never come into general use . We do not undertake to deliver judgment as to the justice and ? accuracy 7of their criticism. None of the critics is superior to sev : eral of the revisers in genuine learn ing ana familiarity with the Scrip turesjof -Inspiration, j y. Vuueve that the revision of the New Testament, despite )ts errors .wuoni, is of - get value and will assist-any careful reader ltr '.the better undersUnUing oi iuo I tWordJv We have'- read? the newre 1 vision some five .or eit 4ita8V-4nd have been aided ,by i in ,the,stndx of tho New Testameut.-.- V e Deiievo It, ' 1 Jl 1.;IVo ift that tno revisers uauftjt ; Miin- . 9nfrzn(, lancruaffQ jn - many blades Wtter'e it have been kptertS have ? retain UlSthmi pewer w uayv af J. nal flow of the exqUlSlte'EnffltSh Of , I, " ' . : A 11 ala inO; 'J ames ixusmiiyu;f r errors ought to have been corrected it M.A. lint thair KkvA; Mnndered ut kuuioc. vuvkuvi -t-. ; in substituting the English of our day in many places for that ; of the seventeenth ceptury, .when it was the constituent element i of, writers to be almost as, musical and , flpwipg in prose as poeis iu um verse. . : . .

The- High Tariff Wall keeps out the goods: but lets in the.men who make them. The Labor Convention can not see wisdom and fairness in this. The Republicana have been strong on the goods ques tion but weak on the labor question John Roach and other Protectionists have not hesitated to import cheap labor whenever home labor was high er than they were willing in their, greed to pay. The Labor1 Convention fsks for practical protection." The Kew "SjorlrTfms atfe: o k ' y j "The Labor Convention has concluded hat the time is ripe for applying the same sauce to. the. Caucasian goose that iias hus J nas resoivea to recommena me passage oi a law increasing the head mosey tax on all immigrants to $10 per head so, as to stop tho influx of paupers into this country. The Convention does not, it is true, put its re Commendation to exclude the European pauper 'on protective gnwrods, , any more than Bismarck pretends tpxexclude the American pig on rrotective.groiunda. The Convention suggests -that itbe- money so raised br tax shall be 'made las A fund for the care and beiffiflt Of aaMmmigraptat'' All the same the tax would operate as an addi tion of about one-third to the passage money irom .Europe to our shores, not only to the; distressed European laborer himself, but toi every.oneof his dependents." . ' ;: -' Blaine in his letter, of. acceptance takes the ground that it may become; necessary to xctud cheap foreign 1 labor. In i his former editorials he was strong in that direction. As far back as 1855, he said in- bis paper, the Kennebec 'Journal, n" his com" ment on the Know 'Nothing- Crorem ors messaga to b Legislature: -'.j 1 ' We need atrlnTOnt' T4ra tn vtmilAt fit immigration ( fr0x& Jitropet$ officers to administer them.

I In another, editorial, Blaine ex pressed himself aa being very hopeful. that the next Presidential; election-(in 1856) would turn on the question of regulating foreign immigrants. He wrote: . ' ' . i "The issue of the next Presidential ejec tion is to be determined by the political movements of this vearr If Ihev be w!aTv and honestly made, the friehds of freedon ana American rtgiasmil certainly triumph t and the great result will be the checking of the growth of the slave power and judi cious settlement of the basis of citizenship by reform in our laws of naturalization." f We have one more ' precious' edit; tonal opinion, of editor Blaine's, now candidate Blaine'sto lay before' the intelligent readers " of , the Stab Gardner, a Know Npthingj was Gov: ernor oi jiiassacnusetts in 1855 "He had disbanded .' some military, copi- panies oecame they were Icoposed OF POBEIGN,.
