T11R FULJNE88 OF SCRIPTURE.
I have often taken occasion, writes Dr.
Hawker, to remark to the Lord's people. In the
course of my ministry, what a fulness may be
found, under the Lord's teaching from short
Bent nces, and even from einjjte words, in the
BcKplures of our Ood. It is astonishing to ob
eerre it, and, indeed, it becomes decisive of the
divine authority. Never, surely, can there be
found tuch a comprehension as God the Holy
Ghost useth In His Scriptures of Truth. A
word will often convey a volume of expression.
Here, therefore, we trace the Almighty writer;
here we recognize a Divine hand. Surely,
none but Ood could accomplish such a pur
pose. And it did seem that our translators had a
cleir apprehension of the Lord's design in this
particular, from the frequency of their marginal
notes and references; for when at any time they
felt themselves at a loss to convey the full sense
of aty passage or word in the body of the chap
ter or verse, they have substituted another word
by way of explanation in the margin; and most
sweet and ponderous these marginal notes are.
Our old Bibles abound with them; and our
old Bibles are like old gold on this account
they are true bullion and without alloy. And
next to the Scriptures themselves, that faithful
and correct translation which we have of those
divine record?, as established by law amongst us,
is the greatest blessing the Lord ever bestowed
upon our nation; and, however it may subject
me to the censure of certain modern writers,
who, either to support their several systems, or
to affect learning, are continually taking of
fa'se rendering a ad interpolations and the like in
this our present translation; yet sure I am that
all the wisdom of the several centuries which
tave succeeded that golden age of the Church
when ihe Bible was first translated never have
been or will be able to form an equal. The
, Lord's blessing has gone before it, and followed
it to thousands now in glory; and His blessing
will watch over it for good to the thousands
yet t) follow of the Church to the latest pos
terity. BUJII.MAKY OF CHURCH NEWS.

How the Gypelea Plllnccd a "Lady's Residence.
There bas been for some days past an encamp
ment of what may be called gypsies in Rut
land, their camping ground having been changed
from time to time, it not from day to day. On
Saturday last two of them called at the house of
Mrs. Hubbard, a widow lad' residing on the
corner of Wales and West streets, with some
baskets, which they offered for sale. Upon Mrs.
Hubbard's declining to purchase, they entered
into conversation with her, and one of them, ob
serving that she had a small bunch on her fore
head, proposed to remove it. Mrs. Hubbard in
formed her that it originated with an injury
which she had received some years ago,- and
that, as it had affected the bone, it could not be
remedied; whereupon one of the gypsies mar"e
a pretense of examining the bunch, aDd com
menced passing her hands over Mrs. Hubbard's
face. This is the loot nbe remembers of the
transaction at the time. On the next day, Sun
day, wishing to use some money, she went to
the place where she was in the habit of keeping
it, but could not find any, and upon further
search it was ascertained that a dozen silver
spoons and some other articles were missing.
Mrs. Hubbard then remembered that she was
unconscious at the time these two women left,
and that there had been during the rest of the
day a strange feeling of dizziness in her
head, and her suspicions were at once
aroused that she had been magnetized by these
women, and that, taking advantage of her
unconscious condition, they had taken the
money, silver, etc., with them. Procuring a
team she started in the direction of their en
campment, and taking advice proceeded to pro
cure a search warrant and an officer. While
doing this 8he was probably observed by the
women, for, on returning to her house to get
ready to go with the officer, and while up stairs,
the two women came into the house, left a bun
die on the table, and simply remarking that "it
was all right, they had only borrowed it," or
something to that effect, went away. Upon
opening the bundle all of the missing articles
as well as the money, with the exception of
some two or three dollars, which was in silver,
were found. It is supposed that the woman
noticed Mrs. Hubbard going to different places,
and thinking that she suspected them of the
theft, and not having had time to properly se
crete the articles, took this method to avoid a
prosecution. Rutland (Vt.') Herald.
BREAKING JAIL.
An Ingenious Escape Irem the Maryland Pent
lemlary.
The Baltimore Han of yesterday has the fol
lowing:
One of the most ingenious escapes on record
took place at the Maryland Penitentiary last
evening. The party who effected his escape is
named Adolph Lawrence, a Frenchman. His
cell was on the upper tier, and, being crippled
in tre leu nana, ne was not compelled to work.
It is suDPOsed that durinir the afternoon he muat
have visited his cell, where be made an etligy of
a man and placed it In position inside the cell
just as the convicts stand when the deputy
keeper makes his first eveniutr round aud re
ceives a check from each prisoner, as proof posi
tive oi uis preueuce m ins propar piace. me
elligvwas made of straw taken from his bed, and
Had lor a neaa a pretty good representation
made of papier macbe. He also had a haud
made of the same material, iu the finger of
which was held his ticket. As the deputy keeper
made his round he hurriedly gathered ia this
ticket with the rest, wuich was placed among
those taken from the prisoners, and on a count
it was found that ihe number of tickets tallied
with the number of prisoners. The first intima
tion of the escape came from a child on the
street running from the rear to the frout of
the prison aud informing the warden that a
prisoner was on the outside of the wall, aud had
made some threat to preveut informa
tion being glvtn. As inquiry was at once
made, when the facts detailed above were ascer
tained. It seems that Lawrence, after fixing the
effigy in position, hid himself iu the yard, and
securing a strong rope, made his escape over
the wall. He was seen to aliubl on the outside
by the child whom he threatened, and had it not
been for- this fact it is more thau probable that
his escape would not have, been found out until
this morning. Lawrence is atout thirty years of
age, five feet six Inches hiab, with dark sandy
bair, inclined to curl. He was convicted in the
City Criminal Court, in February last, of lar
ceny, atid sentenced to serve until the 4th of
Maicb, 1875. A reward of $100 is offered for ttie
captuie of Lawrence.

Tho Memphis Avalanche a good newspaper,
but none too loyal, and a noted sensationist
has the following in its issue of the ICth lost.:
There is trouble nt the "Point." The Point is
situated some five or six miles from town, be-tween-the
Wolf and Uatchie rivers. The colored
population out there have been disturbed to
their lowest depths. Some time ago Winfleld
Jerusalem was out there preaching a sort of re-liirlous-tolitical
sermon, exclusively colored in
its tote and air. Sentries were placed at proper
distances beyond the precincts of the church,
to keep away interloping whites. What trans
pired at the meeting was held secret until a Dr.
Winston cornered one of the colored cusses and
lorccd a confession from him. The colored man
said that "Uncle Smif was a talking to 'em
upon warious toothpicks, an' things in general,"
among which was the startling announcement
that the "kullud pussun" would pass away flike
the Indian of former days, and that now was
the time to make a stand now the time to get
on their legs and make a fight for their rights,
and do or die.
Their enthusiasm and their ire and their in
dignation were at once raised; even the sentries
that perambulated outside the church became
affected and sent up involuntary cheers. The
news spread abroad among the neighbors that
the colored man intended to stand up for his
rights, and that he considered now the accepted
time and that if he wouldn't strike boldly and
well he would be forever fallen. Yesterday
was the day set apart for the "rising." The
female portion of the community became im
bued with the idea that they couldn't stand it.
They took the youngsters under their arms and
under the protecting folds of their cloaks and
rushed into the city quite numerously.
The discourse of the patriotic Smith occurred
some five or six weeks ago. Since then the
negroes, who are making crops on shares, have
been growing discontented and careless daily,
abandoning their crops in some cases. Smith
is reported to have advised them to rise at once
or the whites would soon be too numerous for
them. When asked what about their crops
Smith's reply was that their crops were nothing
compared to their lives and liberties. Now was
the time to vindicate themselves or not at all.
A patrol of citizens were organized, and word
was sent to 8herlff Wright, coupled with a re
quest for aid. Further details are awaited with
anxiety.
A young girl named Gibhonse put a period
to her existence at St. Louis, a few nights 6ince,
in consequence of having received no communi
cation from her lover for several days. The ex
citement of watching the mail, day after day,
unseated her reason, and she swallowed aglarge
dose of morphine.
The examination in the case of the young
man Clapbam, who is in custody at Albany,
charged with robbing the United States mail,
is to be resumed soon. The evidence
already adduced goes to show that he had been
seen on one occasion destroying a number of
letters in a 6tove at his lodgings. '
