The occasion being of inore than usual significance, marking as it did the clese of the first half century of the society's oxist exist oxist tenco, inore than usual care was taken te mnke the event n literary epoch In Its his tory. The commlttce of arrangoments, consisting of A. L. Little, chairman, S. U. StolUet, liA. Buss, A. L. O. liny. W. R. Peters, .1. C.

The stage was very prettily decorated. Frem thoccntreof the proscenium arch weie hung long gar lands of laurel, looped up at either side el the stage, llelew the apex of the arch thus formed was suspended n great lleral horse herso horso shee, in the tee of which, In cut flewers wero the words "skmi-ci:nti:nniai" and under these the initials of the society, "G.

Te the left hung lleral flgures "35," and te the right "8," In the rear centre of the stage was n great mass or tropical plants, prettily arranged by Hehrer, tlie florist, whlle ubove thorn llamcd an arcli ' .of gas jets forming in O reek letters the motto et the society, "Oencithe IVtes." On the right front of the stage wero large vases filled with tropical plants having rich green foliage, whlle the base of the prosceiiiuiii arch was decorated with a profusion of plants, vines and messes, in smaller pets. Promptly at 7:15 o'clock, thefuculty of the collego followed by the orators orthe evening, entored the opera liouse und took their scats en sofas arranged upon the stage, the faculty te the right and the students te the left, the orchestra In the meantime, playing n lively march.

After stating that the society bad used Its best ollerts te prop erly colebrato its seml-centennlal, and ex tending a hearty wolcemo te the audlcnce ier their liberal attemlance and onceuragemont, and bespeaking for tlie young orators a frimdly criticism, the salutaterlau entered upon the subject of his oration, " The Ro Re Ro naissance." After referring te the growth and glory of Heme with her splendors of art and scholarship, and her llnal fall, en account of her vices and indolence, and of the dark centuries of ignorance nnd fanaticism which followed the triumph et the barbarians by whom she had been subdued, the young ora tor sketched the character of the great Charlc--magne, his unsuccessful ellbrs te lcbuild the lomple of learning which had been destroyed. Hut a spark of the ancient glory of literature and art yet remained in the inenasteilcs, and though obscured by clouds of fanaticism nd superstition It finally breke forth Inte 1IQ Ut under the Mcdicis and was fatmed into tlame by Angole.

After quoting the opening words ofthe Declaration of Independcnc that "all men are created ceuitI," imd endorsing the doctrine that equality bon.re the law is he foundation or liberty, he argued thatthere ever was nnd never ennld be eiiuality Ikv tween man and man.

Ills tliome was the motto of the society 'Gonesthe Flies" a motto than which there could be nene nebler. "Let there be light" was the dlvine Injunction In the dawn of creation, nnd the darkness at ence disappeared. After describing the proprieties nml uses of physical light the orator speke of the mere brilliant light of the human intellect, whereby man explores the Inflnltude of the hcavens, fathoms the deptlis et earth nnd ocean, unravels nature's secrets, nnd establishes tlie arts and sciences. Hut even the light of the Intellect has lis limits the marvels of llfe nnd immortality He beyond Its apprehension ; and then Is glven us the greater light the light of Christian faith. The medium through which this light is rovcaled Is Ged's holy word. The soveral orations wero well written nnd well spoken, the nudlouce manifesting their approval by loud applause, and the persenal friends of the orators testifying their regard by prcbenting each spoalter with books, flowers, fruits and ether articles.

It is announced from Louden that the reyised version of tlie Old Testament will Ik ready for distribution in this country en the Hist or the present month, but we de net dis cover any ovldcnce that the publication Is nwalted with great e.igerncss or curiosity, except, perhaps, by n coniparntlely small number or lllblle.il students. At any rale, thore Is no such wide-spread intorest with regard te it ns thore was con cerning the revised New Testament when it was made known that the commlttce or re vision were about te give te the public tlie results or their labors. Then the new orslen immediately attained a circulation among Knglish speaking people Hir greater than any ethei IkwiIc has reached in modern times. It was printed in many forms and bought by the million, nnd thousand of meu then read for the first thne the Testament upon which Is founded the faith of Christendom. Uut the Interest in the revised New Tosta Testa ment was short lived. Itbognnte diminish rapidly seen after the publication of the vol ume, and befere n year wns ever It had en tirely disappcaicd, nutslde of a small clrcle of theologians anil lllbllcal scholars. The old vcrsen continued te be used In the churches, in spitoer its acknowledged Inac curacies, which rclate chiefly te matters or miner consequence, and Christians revised te give te the new the enoratlen which the nlillmd wen from thein. And se It Is new. Se l.ir as the doctrines or the church In all Us branches are concerned, the revised New Testament has produced no change whatever, nnd It seems te have had llttle or no ell'cct in spreading the laltli in tlie religion it pro claims. Perhaps it has rather tended toln teln toln crcase the modern disposition te weigh and ciitlcise the teachings or Christ, net as the utterances of divinity, but ns the words of n religious enthusiast excited by the contem plation of the sorrows and inequalities of human oxistence and tlie awful mysteries of llfe and destiny. Tlie reader or tlie revised rsew Testament appreacueu u wim a vury dillercnt reeling from that with which he opened tlie pages or the old -crslen. Ills mood was no longer reverential, but rather critical, and probably lu ninety-nine ceses out or a hundred, devout believers failed te lind in it the satisfaction tliey had taken in tlie old Hible, w hese very w erds canto te them ns ifspokeu from the Heavenly Threne. Therelore it is that the new version of the Old Testament Is coldly regarded. Poeplo knew that they will be disappointed in it, that it can nover lia e for them the holy asso ciations or the ltlbloef their youth, mid that, whatever the changes, Improvements, clarifi cations, and excisions, It will never get a fast held en their affections and command their unquestioning veneration. Tliey knew, tee, Hint It will tin nnwnrlnss te modify in the, least the essence of tlie religion which Is their hope and their consolation. Net merely as n translation from ether tmifiiivu. lint in itself, the old Eiicllsh lllble Is the ene sacred book or English-speaking people, and Its very letter has become sedear te tlieni that It seems te many a sacrllege te alter it even for tint sake of greater accuracy or translation.
