Tlie IVcw Hew Tcstuiucnt.
English and American scholars
have been spending the past ten
years in a revision of the New Tes
tament, which is now published. It
is understood that it affects no doc
trines of the sects, but cures defects
of translation iu the former editions.
The phrase Holy Spirit is used in
stead of Holy Ghost. Hades and
Gehenna, both formerly translated
"hell," are now. respectively, Hades
and hell. In I Thessalouiaus, iv, 15,
the old vcrsiou reads : "We which
are alive shall not prevent them that
are asleep." Prevent now means to
hinder; it formerly meant, to go be
fore. The new version says: "We
that are alive, that are loft unto the
coming of the Lord, shall in no wise
precede them that are fallen asleop."
In Romans i, 13: "Now, I would
not have you ignorant, brethren,
that oftentimes, I purposed to come
uuto you (but was let hitherto) that
I might havo bouio friend, &c."
"Let" is changed to "hinder," in the
new vorsion, the other no longer
expressing the meaning of the pas
sago. old.
Rev. xx, 14: "And death and hell
were cast into the lake of fire."
NEW.
"Aud death and hades were cast
into the lake of fire."
OLD.
Matt, xx, 23 : "But to sit on My
right baud and on My loft, is not
mine to give, but it shall be given to
them, for whom it is prepared of
My Father."
NEW.
"But to sit on my right hand and
on my left hand is not mine to give,
but it is for them for whom it hath
been prepared of my Fathor."
In 1 John chap. 5, the seventh
verse, reading as follows, is omit
ted: "For there are three that bear
record in heaven, the Father, the
Word and the Holy Ghost: and
these three are one."
iueuess of the latter
"The genu
part of this
verse, and the first clause of the
next," says a commentator, "it is
well known has divided the opin
ions of the learned men for nearly
four centuries," aud the translators
regard it as spurious.
In Hebrews, the well known first
verse of the eleventh chapter, "Now
faith is the substance of things hoped
for, the evidence of things not seen,"
is changed to read, "Now faith is
the assurauco of things hoped for,
the proving of things not seen."
In the thirteenth chapter of 1st
Corinthians, the word "love" is sub
stituted for "charity," the passage
opening in the new version thus:
"If I speak with the tongue of men
and of angels, but havo not love, I
am become sounding brass, or a
clanging cymbal," and closing, "hut
now abidcth faith, hope, love, these
three; aud the greatest of these is
love."
The first two verses of chapter v,
II Corinthians appear thus: "For
wc know that if the earthly house
of our tabernacle be dissolved, we
have a building from God, a house
not made with hands, eternal in the
heavens. For verily in this we
groan, longing to be clothed upon
with our habitation which is from
heaven."
Iu tho fourth chapter of John the
27th verse reads, "And upon this
came his disciples, and marvelled
that ho talked with tho woman."
The new version has it "and mar
velled that he talked with a womau,"
the idea being that it was rather
beneath dignity to hold conversa
tion with a woman.
Chap, vii, verse 17 reads, "If any
man willeth to do his will, he shall
know of tho teaching whether it he
of God, or whether I speak from
myself."
The words "For thine is the king
dom, and the power, and the glory
forever, amen," are expunged from
the text, as not being found in any
of the authoritative uncials.

The new railroad law which goes
into effect in Nebraska to-day pro
vides, in brief, that every railroad
corporation shall give all persons
reasonable and equal terms, facilities
and accommodations for the trans
portation of any merchandise or
other property; that tho rates as
published and in force Nov. 1, 1880,
shall be the maximum less may be
charged, but not more, and "no rail
road company shall demand, charge
collect or receive for such transpor
tation for special distances a greater
sum than it demands, charges, col
lects or receives for a greater dis
tance;" that there shall be no secret
rate, rebate, drawback, uor any
undue advantage. The penally, in
addition to liability for damages sus
tained, is a fine of $500 for each
offence. There has been considera
ble comment upon the law, and an
endeavor on the part of some news
papers to show that it will work
adversely to the interests of the
State, but so far we have failed to
sec a single good reason advanced
against it. Will these journalists
point out a Bingle provision that is
unfair, unjust, or injurious to the
public welfare? If the law is so
freighted with ills as they would
have us believe, they surely could
cite one of its provisions that out
rages the equal rights of citizens.
If laws were self-executing we
might know by experience during
the next year, just how good or bad
this law is; and herein lies the
trouble there is and that there will
be with all legislation designed to
hold the scales of justice level be
tween the people and the corpora
tions, the laws will not be executed
until the public miud is deeply,
thoroughly roused, aud ever ou the
alert, and then iudividuals will uot
seek the protection of the law until
its outrage has become unendurable.
Herd JLuw.
Ed. Journal: There seem3 to be
a difference of opinion among law
yers and laymen concerning the
attitude of our supreme court ou the
above subject, with reaped to dam
age by stock ou uncultivated lauds.
In tho case reported iu the tenth
volume Nebraska Supreme Court
ReportB, page 492, the court decided
in effect that as regards wild prairie
lands cattle are free commoners, and
that no action can be maintained for
trespass of stock thereon when
such stock strays upon lauds of that
description. A re-hearing has been
ordered in the above case, and, as I
understand, the court still adheres
to its former decision, but will fur
ther hold that where the trespass
resulted from the wilful act of the
owner of, or the party having the
property iu charge, then an action
will lie for damages, whether the
alleged trespass be committed on
either wild or cultivated lands.
The law of 18S1, iutroduced by
Senator Turner, found in the session
laws of Nebraska for that year, page
05, which will take effect on the
first day of June, and which defines
cultivated lauds to include forest
trees, fruit trees, hedge rows planted
on said lauds, also those surrouuded
by a plowed strip at least a rod in
width, plowed ouco a year, will un
doubtedly beau adequate protection
to farmers for the coming two years.

Worthy ol Mention.
The triumphs of modern printers'
art are simply marvelous ; Chicago
takes tho lead, as usual, and the
Times, as usual leads Chicago by a
loug way. Think of it, space an
nihilated, time almost annihilated,
and the entire Nev Testament re
vised, sold for five cents, wherever
the 1'imcs is sold. That wonderful
paper has this to say of a job of
priuting "in advance of any other
newspaper in the world :''
"The work done for the Times by
the Western Union Telegraph com
pany on Friday night, in bringing
from New York to Chicago the re
vised vorsion of the Four Gospels,
has never been equaled in the his
tory of telegraphy. No less than
twenty-one wires were employed in
this labor, and to obtain this num
ber not only were all the direct
lines pressed into service, but cir
cuits were made through Cauada,by
way of the Ohio valley, and even
further south. One of tho benefi
cial results of the recent consolida
tion was seen in this work, the wires
of the American Union line con
tributing to its success. The time
occupied in transmission was from
5 to 11 :30 o'clock p. m., nineteen
wires being in use up to 9 o'clock,
and twenty-one after that hour. The
reader may form some idea of the
vast amount of telegraphic labor ac
complished when he is told that the
number of words actually trausmit
ted was 83,715."
The commissioners of Harlan Co.
havo impeached James Billings,
county treasurer, finding him guilty
of habitual and wilful neglect of
duty, aud also of extortion. The
Enterprise says it was proven he
had collected excessivo fees ; failed
to keep a warrant-book ; would not
keep a fee-book; sold lands aud
made their sale illegal by charging
$1 on each sale more than provided
by law. The Enterprise charges
their county clerk with wrong
doing and calls for his impeachment.
Among other things, it mentions
that he refuses to keep a fee-hook,
and pay into the county treasury an
excess of fees over $1500.
Recent advicos from London
show that thore never was such ex

Wallen, being held iu $200 each to
appear aud answer with the others
arrested. Warrants were issued for
another batch. Stanton has not
dared return to Jefferson precinct
since tho arrests were made.
Recent ucwb from Leavenworth,
Kansas, reports a test case regarding
the prohibition law in the district
county court, Judge Crosier decid
ing that the legislature, under the
constitution, cannot prohibit but
only regulate the sale of liquor for
mechanical, scientific or medical
purposes ; that inasmuch as tho law
undertook to prohibit the sale of
articles which under the amendment
it could only regulate, it was uncon
stitutional. Captain A. J. Fitz, of San Fran
cisco, chairman of the Democratic
County Committee, and a prominent
leader of the democratic party, sui
cided the other night by hanging.
No cause discovered for the act.
His family affairs were pleasant and

Lincoln's public library costs her
citizens about $1,300 a year a small

such an institution is far behind the
times.
