A lew Stricture Upoa M. I.
Vonway.
There is a great deal of bluuder
ing talk and writing about the Jact
that the revisers of the 2Jew Testa-
ment have introduced Hades into
their version. Herejs a specimen,
from Moncure D. .Conway, a good
instance of his want of care and
conscientiousness in making his
points against the orthodox. Here
Is what he says: "The pit of hell,
which the new translators have
overlaid with the classic mythology
of Hades," etc., etc. Now where
people in general talk in this style,
we may reasonably ascribe it to an
innoceut ignorance. They know
nothing of Creek, and have no con
ception of simple questions of schol
arship. When they sec Hades here
and there in the New Testament
where they had been used to see
hell, they naturally imagine that the
change 5b induced by a doctrinal
iufluencc. But no Buch excuse can
be pleaded for Conway. In him it
must be either a-scandalous indiffer
ence to knowing the truth, or a
scandalous indifference to speaking
the truth.
Now what are the facts? The
English Concordance gives hell as
occurring in 23 passages. Of these,
a Greek Condordanco sHows that in
the original 11 have Hades, 1 Tar
tarus (implied in a verb) and 11
Geenna. Of these three terms Gcen
na, or Gehenna, was the Jewish
name of the place of torment ; Tar
tarus the Greek name of the same;
and Hades the Greek name (trans
lating the Hebrew Sheol) for the
placo of the dead, without regard to
character. Thus these two words
(throwing TartaruB in with Gehen
na) have two meanings, the one
comprehending both the righteous
and the wicked, the other restricted
to the wicked. What the revisers
have done is Bimply to distinguish
where the original has distinguish
ed ; which they haye done by giving
Hades where the Greek gives IladeH,
and using hell for Gehenna and the
once -used Tartarus, both which
moan what wo commonly mean by
hell, namely, the place of future
punishment. To charge upon the
doctrinal bias of our age something
which three glances into a Concord
ance immediately show to result
from simple fidelity to the original,
in a common man would be simple
ignorance, but in Moncure D. Con
way it can be only a prevarication.
But, it may be urged, the rich man
is said to have lifted up his eyes in
hell, being in torments, and that
here, too, the revisers have substi
tuted Hades. Very true. They have
given Hades here, simply because
the original has it here. The rich
man was in torments because he
was ovil, not because he was in
Hades. That word is used because
he is described as conversing with
Abraham and as seeing Lazarus.
They wore in Hades, but among the
blessed ; lie was in Hades, but among
the damned. Here, too, the revis
ers have done what fidelity bid them
do, rendered a neutral word by
transferring it, instead of allowing
it to remain mistranslated by a word
meaning what Hades does not mean,
though sometimes, as hero, the con
nection may add it.
Nor is this retrenchment of the
term hell to nearly half its former
frequency eveu, as some might
think, tho fruit of an effort (o bring
the translation up to an honesty
which it lacked before. Time had
made it misleading, 1C11 was as
honest in this point as 1SS1. The
truth is that hell was then a very
good rendering of Hades, for that is
all it originally meant, and it had
not yet confined itself to the darker
meaning. Hela, in our old mythol
ogy was the goddess of the Hollow
Place, the subterranean realm of the
dead. But as the TeutouB supposed
afl their heroes and heroines, and
not merely the very chief to escape
her dominion, leaving only the more
worthless souls, a subordinate idea
akin to the present sense of hell
came in. Thus this doubtful word
was very well suited 270 years ago
to its two-fold use, and its applica
tion to both Hades and Gehenna
was as honest then as its retention
for Hades would bo objectionable
now.
This ambiguous sense of hell, as
then used, is dhown by tho words in
the Creed, where it is said that
Christ "descended into hell," not
meaning Gehenna, but simply
Hades. In James I's day I do not
suppose that anybody was troubled
by these words; but now they make
people uneasy, because they are mis
understood. This misunderstanding
should be obviated by substituting
the original Hades in the Creed also.
If this wore done, Moncure D. Con
way would doubtless hail it as a
sign that orthodoxy was giving way
in its very strongholds. If he can
prevaricate once about the matter,
why not twice ?
But this prophet of unbelief some
times, like Balaam, bears witness
against himself. In this same pass
age he tells us that the pit of hell ib
now covered up by the flowers of
learning. We might remind him
that flowers may very well cover up
a pit, but that they do not render a
fall into it any less dreadful. To
save us from this dire danger, Mon
cure D. Conway offers us concealing
flowers ; our great Redeemer offers
us revealing and saving light, and
the powerful arms of His mercy.
Every one can make his choice, and
happily many millions have made a
better choice than to follow this
prophet of smooth things. Mr. Con
way may help England to turn
Atheist if 6hc will, but the stern yet
loving gospel of God was preached
before there was an England, and
will not ceaBe though Euglaud
should become heathen again.

At a recent convention held at
Council Bluffs to consider the im
provement of the Missouri river
Senators Saunders and Van Wyck
made the following ad drosses:.
SENATOR SAUXHEKS' ADDUESS.
Pending the reports of the com
mittees at the afternoon session,
IIou. Alvin Saunders, senator from
Nebraska, was called on to address
tho convention. Senator Saunders,
after some pleasantries between him
and Chairman Hogaj, said that he
was heart and soul in sympathy
with the objects of the convention,
a fact which no man kuowB better
than you, Mr. Chairman (addressing
Mr. Hogau). Turuiug to the dele
gates he said, I camo to hear you
talk and tell what you want me to
do, giving a full expression of your
views. Mine are pretty well known.
I took grounds in the senate iu Feb
ruary last, in a speech in the senate
for an appropriation of one million
dollars to bo expended between
Sioux City and the mouth of the
Missouri. The committee reported
in favor of $1,S00,000. We got only
$300,000. Congress is not informed
on this matter. I could name sena
tors who didn't know that a steamer
ever ran as high as this point. "How
do steamboats get to Nebraska?"
asked one. "Very easily," I replied,
"on the largest river in the world."
"But I thought," answered the sena
tor, "that the Missouri river was
back of Kansas." But ignorance
will be overcome. These rivers
must be opened. They are the only
free highways that the people own.
I am not prejudiced on this subject.
I am a railroad man as well as a
river man. We want all the rail
roads we can get and twice as many
as we now have. There is business
for all. There is too much talk
against the railroads. Wo go to
work and start railroads, and help
pay for them; we open them with
great enthusiasm, and the next day
we come out and denounce them as
monopolists. This is all wrong. If
therailroads abuse their powers and
their trusts we hav our remedy iu
the courts, and the legislatures and
in congress. But there are some
things whicli we of the west cannot
afford to demand of congress. We
only cut ourselves off from the ad
vantagas they give us when we ask
congress to pass a law establishing
mileage rates between our section
and the great markets. Such a pol
icy would isolate the west. But "it
is just what the cast wants. The
cast has water competition and low
rates, and we can have the same ad
vantages if we go to work, not fight
ing the railroads, and open the river
to cheap transportation, so as to en
able us to compete, not only with
the markets of the old world, but
with our own. Wc need to open
up communication with the south
and give them our grain and pork,
so that they may use their ground
for cotton. Wc are nothing if not
an agricultural region. If wo can
not find markot wc arc cut oil' and
must live in poverty, when we ought
to be the richest people in the world.
The place to begin is in local meet
ings, in boards of trade, and in
conventions. The senator then re
ferred to the market which should
be opened up in Brazil. We buy
fifty millions of that country and
6cll them but five million a year
not because wc do not raise wheat
they want, but because wc have no
ships. What wc do ship has mostly
to go no Europe. Now, start these
barge lines, and lay our products
alougside the sea vessels for Brazil,
and wc shall have one of the best
markets in the world, almost at out
doors. I did vote once, I believe,
for "monopoly ;" I voted iu favor of
granting a subsidy to Roach, to ena
ble him to open a line, from New
York and New Orleans to that
country. That was the only means
I could then see to give us of the
west this important advantage. Wo
want the privilege of doing the best
wc can with fair play. Delegates
of the convention, we of Nebraska
will give you a helping hand ; and
let us unite and show congress that
we can justly claim a fair Bhare of
the millions it spends, in aid of the
richest valley on earth, which only
needs an outlet and a market. Fol
low up your demands till you are
heard by congress. We have been
slow in Hub matter. I received
more thanks for the efforts I made
from St. Louis than from Iowa,
Kansas and Nebraska together.
Cease being slow in this thing.
Wake up and go to work, and your
object will soon be in a fair way of
accomplishment.
ADDRESS Br SENATOR VAX WTCK.
Senator Van Wyck said he had'
come to the convention with the
view of listening and learning the
views of others, though on this sub
ject he has for years held definite
views of his own. The question of
the improvement of the river is year
by year becoming more and more
important to the dwellers in the
valley. There was a time, and that
not long distant, when the rivers
were the only openings with the
outside world. That was the day
preceding railroads. Now there are
four great roads which permeate the
country; and they have done good
service. But the people of these
mid-western states are growing, and
cultivation is extending; and those
who live here ten years hence will
find a population doubled, and pro
duction quadrupled, and the rail
roadB will also have to double their
rails or there will also have to be
double the number of railroads. In
this crisis, comes in the question of
a river improvement a question of
interest and importance, not only to
the people here resident, but to the
people of the whole world. It is a
question of reducing the cost of
transportation by legitimate meth
ods, and here is a convention which
can speak of it without being charg
ed with opposition to railroads or
with being grangers carrying hay
seed in their hair. There is nothing
to hinder the work, there is no good
reason why the government should
not undertake it. The people are
prepared for it, and all they require
is that there shall be honest expend
iture, and there will be no grudging
of the money, whether it be one
million, five millions or ten millions
of dollars. If the problem of cheap
transportation be solved then every
interest in this country will be pro
tected. What made tho south strong
in its day? The fact that the cotton
and slave iudustry was a uuit. To
day the policy of the south is the
policy of the manufacturing inter
ests, and the railroad interests, and
it is only the agricultural interest
whose members are isolated and
helpless in the presence of the other
interests. Let it bo rotnemberod
that our ultimate market is in Eu
rope. It is here we must get our
products, and the question of our
prosperity depends on the cheapness
with which the transportation is
eflected.
Here on the rivers is the way, and
a way which antagonizes none, for
he was glad to say that the wisest of
railroad men aro iu favor of this
great movemeut. In this great land
there will bo no opposition to the
movement to open these rivers so
that commerce may float on their
bosoms as easily and safely as on
the smooth canals of the cast or the
bosom of the ocean. The queBtiou
of the cost is nothiug. Ever' year
this country gives millions to the
iron industry, and millions to the
spindles ; but yet nothing has been
rendered to agriculture which is the
foundation of all. He repeated
there is no antagonism to railroads.
But all are aware that it ia tho trans
portation from tho west which
makes the millionaire fortunes of
Wall street, and it would be no in
jury to anybody to take a little
money to improve the river ways
which money will save great expen
ditures in the future. Tho time is
now for this great work; and there
is no reason why it should not at
once be accomplished. (Loud cheers.)
HOW IT WQRKS IN WYOMING.
Gov. Hoyt's Opinion of Woman
Suffrage
Territory of Wyoming,
iijcg, i
tmont,
y 21, '81.)
Executive Department
Cheyenne, May
Dear Madam : Availing myself
of my first leisure moment after my
return to the east, I now respond
with pleasure to your inquiry of
recent date concerning woman suff
rage. Perhaps I would sufficiently cover
the ground by saying that whereas
I came to Wyoming in considerable
doubt on the subject, three years of
close observation and inquiry have
established me in the conviction,
not only that woman suffrage is a
practical success in Wyoming, but
that its adoption throughout our
country is demanded by both jus
tice and the highest political wis
dom. While it has not accomplish
ed all that enthusiastic reformers
have fondly hoped, nor yet so much
for the moral elevation of society as
some have supposed there was rea
son to anticipate a fact easily ex
plained, in view of the peculiar
circumstances which attach to a new
community, composed iu large part
of young persons here for a definite
purpose, and without intention of
permanent residence still it is un
deniable. First, that it is accompanied by
no evil results which are now dis
coverable; and
Second, that wo have bettor laws,
"better men in office and a better so
cial order because of it.
The statement so often seen in
print that "none but vicious women
vote" is a gross libel, deserving of
tho highest commendation. The
womeu of Wyoming do "generally
vote" and it is due to them that I
say, they use the ballot with a large
degree of independence and with
more than the ordinary discrimina
tion as to social ends and tho moral
fitness of candidates.
I congratulate tho people of Ne
braska a state with so magnificent
a future clearly before it on the
liberality of their decision to take
the first step in a revolution which
for breadth and benificencc will
rank foremost in the records of po
litical history. Let us hope that the
second great step will be forward.
With great respect, your obedient
servant, Johv W. IIoyt.

Iiciplinc iu Childhood.
Young people who have been
habitually gratified in all their
desires will not only indnlgo more
in capricious desires, but will in
fallibly take it more amiss when the
feelings or happiness of others re
quire that they should be thwarted,
than those who have been practi
tically traiued to the habit of subdu
ingaud restraining them, and conse
quently will, in general, sacrifice
the happiness of others to their own
selfish indulgences. To what else
is the selfishness of princes aud
other great people to be attributed ?
It is vain to think of cultivating
principles of generosity and ben
eficence by mere extortion and reas
oning; nothing but the practica'
habit of overcoming our own sel
fishness, and of familiarly encoun
tering privations and discomforts
on account of others, will ever
enable us to do it when required.
Indulgence infallibly produces sel
fishness and hardness of heart, and
nothing but severe discipline and
control can lay the foundation of a
magnanimous character.
This isn't a menagerie,' sharply
observed an irascible deacon to a
man who was trying to force a pas
sage through a crowd at a church
doorway. 'No, I presume not,' re
turned the Btranger, 'or they
wouldn't leave any of the animals
to block up the entrance.'
