Tho Now Yotk Sun, speaking of
probablo immigration, says: "This
promises to be the greatest year for
immigration wo have over kjown.
Tho arrivals for the first quarter are
far ahead of thoso for tho correspond
ing period of 1S80, and yet tho season
whou immigration is most active is
only just approaeiiing. indications are
that the number landed at Castle Gul
den for tho whole year will equal half
a million. In Germany thoro never
before has been so so indent and wide
spread a desire for emigration as now,
and extra steamers' have all their ac
commodations engaged far ahead."
When tho Democrats succeeded to a
majority in tho U. 8. Senate, they wore
not slow in ousting tho Republican of
ficers of tho SenUite. Union soldiers,
however meritorious, or maimed by
rebel bullets, had to got out, and at
once, to inal.o places for ex-roni"dor-ates.
Now the tables are ugain turned ;
Demoera'jy is in tho minority, and tho
Republicans demanding a reorganiza
tion of tho Scnato officials, and tho
submission of tho minority to tho ma
jority, tho Democrats resist, and by fil
ibustering prevent any business to bo
dono except what they choose to havo
done. Tho Republicans, assert' ng and
maintaining tho r'ght of majority rulo,
will not permit any confirmations or
other business until tho Sonato officers
aro elected. Tho Republicans aro
r'ght and their courso will bo Indorsed
by tho Republican puty. It would bo
humiliating indeed for tho majority
now to back down and permit a mi
nority to rulo.
Tho present Hiblo is regarded as
sacred down to tho last period by many
good people, and the army of enthus
iasts whoso knowlodgo is not to bo com
pared with thoir zeal will rise up in
arms. The changes aro so many that
scarcely a verso in tliu Now Testament
remains unaltered. In many Instances,
however, the alterations concern punc
tuations and minor words. Of courso
any alteration will arouse criticism, but
1 think wo can hold our own, and wo
aro prepared 10 do ualtlo lor what wo
havo dono and sanctioned. "NYo havo
worked between two fires, the radicals
wanting for more sweeping changes
that wo should sanction, and tho other
party rolling thoir oves in horror when
a comma was transformed or a small
letter replaced by a capital. Dr.
Schauf in iV. Y. 1'ost.
Yes, tho masses, who aro only par
tially educated, havo been taught from
tho Sunday school of thoir infruicy to
tho present time, what tiio Rook itself
seems to toach tho terriblo conso
quoncesof adding to or taking from
tho "word of God," and now for thorn
to learn "that scarcely a vorso in tho
Now Testamont remains unaltered,"
will bo a sad thing, ospco!nlly to tho
aged. It is truo that they aro in "tho
army of enthusiasts whoso knowlcdo
is not to bo compared with their zoal,"
but should they bo twitted for thoir
ignorance, for whilo they could not ac
quire tho knowlodgo to road tho old man
uscripts and determino what parts of
their hiblo wore spurious and what not,
havo tlioy not for "lo, thoso many
years" boon Bitting und or tho "drop
pings of tho sanctuary," hearing tho
scnptiiTS oxpoundod by tho expound
ers "called of God" and why aro they
not educated corroctly in tho scrip
tures? instead of being insulted, or at
least humiliated by boing told that
thoyarogojd peoplo but havo, more
zeal than senso. Rut wo forbear to
spread out on this matter at this time,
but givo our honest opinion that for
the present happiness of tho world tho
old hi bio should have been lot nlono.
Tho millions who have gone on before
who believed that every dot, coma, capi
tal loiter and all woro placed thoro by
tho will of the Lord, havo to nbido lry
tn.it law, and will in all probability boas
wel. off as tho millions who shall go, to
bo judged by thoso alleged improvomonts
on tho old law. And raoro than this
and tho wo-st of all, confidence as
to tho inspiration of tho Hiblo will bo
woahonod,is weakened, nn'd infidelity
