Tilo Bible contains, in all, sixty-six books,
written by forty different-writers. These
hooks weie written by different .writers, of
everv degree of cultivation, and of_-differeut
orders— priests, as Ezra; poets, as Solomon ;
nroffhots! as Isaiah; kings,as David; herdsmen,
Si Amos; statesmen, as-Daniel; scholars, as
Mot™ Luke and Paul; fishermen, “ un :
learned and ignorant men,” as Peter and John;
ind fn very different forms-in history,
of place and oondilion-in
of Asia, among the sands and cliffs
of Arabia, tbefields audio 11s of Palestine, in
the courts of the .Jewish Temple, in. the
schools of the prophets at Bethel and Jencho,
in the palace of Bhushan on the idolatrous
hanks of Chebar.-in the dungeons ot Rome,
and one of them in. a lonely, island of the
xLean Sea. They were written, moreover,
in very different circumstances—in venous
phases of joy, of sorrow, of affliction, and of
tribulation; and in very distant periods—the
first* l author,--Moses, having lived four hun
dred years before the siege of Troy, and nine
hundred years before the most ■ ancient sages
of Greece and Asia, Thales, Pythagoras and
Confucius ; and the last,John, fifteen hundred
J< NowffnhjokinSatttiis book, thus written.
It has to the fullest extent, that necessary
condition of any book which is to make a deep
inmressi-on upon the minds and hearts of ,
Jj lf n singleness of purpose, and that purjroso
kept in view throughout every page. The
OIS and the New Testament are undeniably
but different transcripts of the great and
elonoiis original. The one is a lock with
wards and interstices, and the other is the ex- |
ouisitely-cut key, which, applied to the lock,
completely unlocks it, and opens a door of
entrance to the bright vision and lnm
mortality. The one is the portrait seen by
moonlight; the other is the same portrait seen
bv sunlight ;-the one Aiazy and <Um,
"hut still real; the other bright apd
illuminated, like a noonday landscape,
on which the minutest and most
majestic features may be read and understood
bvnim that runs while he reads. As Cecil
savs • “ They contain but one scheme of re
iicioii. Neither can be understood without
toother. * * * They are like the rolls on
which they were anciently written. *
It is but one subject from beginning to end; but
the view which we obtain ot it grows clearer
and clearer as we unwind the roll that con
tains it-” And the single purpose which per
vades the Bible, it.should be noted, is a moral
one. It is the story of human beings in rela
tion to God; first-, of man as man; then of
families; then of a nation; then of the under
society of the Church. In a l other Pressed
revelations the writers dwell at length
on the- origin of the universe (as in
the Shastras of the Hindoos): or on
the physical, theory of another life (as-m
the pretended revelations of Mohammed),
or on topics which cannot even be imagined
to,, be of any practical importance (as in
ot the Talmud, the legends of
the Romish Church, and the visions of Swe
denborg). All that the Bible teaches, on the
other hand, refers to God as connected with
man, singly or socially, or to man as connected
with God—and is moral and practical. It
contains no cosmogony, no mythology, no
metaphvsics, no marvels which are not moral;
no ideal which is not also a reality. In its
histories, biographies, prophecies and
psalmody, it has but one aim ,—to knit to
gether the broken relations between God and
man, and between man and man-to redeem
and sanctify our race. It is a record of moral
Tuin and recovery. Itisahistory andadevelop
tnent of a great plan of salvation conceived in
the Infinite mind. It is a narrative of man s
spiritual position, present condition and future
possibilities, as a creature once formed in the
image of his Maker, and still capable, through
proffered strength, of regaining thatsimihtude.
TUib is the idea which pervades it from its be
ginning to its end.
Thus the book that was written by persons
of so widely variant professions, circum
stances, idiosvncracies, and trials, is always
consistent with itself. Truth is the great and
only instrumentality it makes use of in order
te transform, purify and elevate the human
character. No matter how its writ era teach—
wheither by historv, biography, song, allegory,
parable, argument, or dogmatic testimony
and affirmation— religious, truth forms the
great and essential element in all their in
structions. Whatever the subject is of which
they treat, they all speak the same tiling.
"Wkere there was no collusion there is perfect
harmony; where there wasno preeoncerttliere
is perfect concord. They may be compared
to a band of musicians playing a grand an
them without previous practice; or to a num
ber of laborers and masons, who, having
no idea of the completed appearance
of the edifice on which they are
.employed, lay stone upon stone in blind
obedience to the directing architect, until the
whole atari®"forth in sublimity and perfection.
The book which these inspired men wrote is
evidently £ whole ; it has a beginning, a mid
die, and an end ;it is the realization of one
- mind executed by a number of others. The
same spirit and feeling- pervade the volume.
Its ceremonies and dispensations arise
naturally from one another. The same golden
thread is to be seen running through all its
pages— beginning, as if does, with Paradise
which was lost-;-then stretching itself over
long ages, and at length bringing us back
again where we started—to the City of God
-with its Tree of Life. Let some evidence of
this unity be considered.
Of the great facts narrated in tlie Scriptures,
the sacred writers furnished a perfectly har
monious account The earliest of them wrote
at alater time than some ofthese events ; some
of them wrote after the occurrence of them all;
while most Of those who wrote subsequently
te.all, or a part of them, make frequent and
explicit reference to the whole. Whether
their statements be more or less full, or their
reference more or less incidental, there is no
positive discrepancy between them-. David
celebrates in poetry what Moses records as
a historian, while Stephen, Peter and Paul
urge in argument the same facts that are re
corded by tlie historian’s pen and sung by the
prophet’s lyre. The historical parts ot the
Slew Testament, as well as of tlie Old, are in
perfect coincidence with the more didactic and
doctrinal parts. The Epistles of Paul—
so full of minute specifications,
■o replete with allusions to times, places, per
sons and events, and written with all the free
dom of epistolary correspondence, and with
out any regard to the order of events—are
found to indicate a minute coincidence with
the more extended and'exact history given by
Luke in the “ Acts of the Apostles. So with
the four Evangelists. There is, indeed, a dif
ference in their narratives, but they differ
without being contradictory. Cue gives a
more full account than another; one writes in
chronological order; another interweavesfacts
as they suit his purpose, and without regard to
date; one writes to a different people, and
with a different object; from another,
and therefore presents the facts
with a different phase and complexion. Still
their statements, though at a great remove
from studied uniformity, are characterized by
entire oneness. The doctrine a, too, which the
volume inculcates, all agree with each other.
They have a mutual dependence and connec
tion ; they give one another a reciprocal sup
port. and influence; they grow out of each
other, and all hang together, alike deriving
their ripeness, freshness and flavor from the
same parent stock. Let a diligent student
take up a copy of tlie Scriptures.with copious
marginal references, and undertake to collate
their instructions upon any one doctrine or
moral duty, and he will be surprised at.the
uniformity of their teaching. They never
speak for, and against, the same doctrine; they
never bear witness on both sides of any ques
tion; nor is there an instance in which they
affirm and deny the same tiling. That which,
in reality, has any Scripture in its favor lias
no Scripture in its favor.
The same thing may vbe predicated of the
Bible in relation to the h'armony’ existing be
tween tlie Old and New Testament. They are
but different parts of one system. Judaism
was the stock,gradually growing and strength
ening, on ■-which the flower of Christianity,
’ “in tie fullness of time,” exhibited its hu'd,
unfolded its leaves and diffused its life-giving

fragrance:. Tho dno was tho dawn, the other
is the day; the * one was the infant, the other
is the fuU-grown man. The records of both
are the same in authority, substance ana mode
of communication. Tho same truth, only not
\v ; '*
villi tiie same fullile.su and dearness,was con
veyed in “sundry times” and “divers man
ners” by the Prophets,which was made known
by the Eternal Word when “He was made

all struck one grand key-note— Christ, aad

music there runs one idea, .worked out
I through all the changes of measure and of
i key—now almost hiddon,now breaking out in
rich, natural melody, whispered m tho treble,
murmured in the bass, dimly suggested in tho
prelude,but growing clearer andolearer as the
work proceeds, winding gradually back
until it ends in the key in which it began, and
closes in triumphant harmony—so, through
out the wholo Bible, there runsone grand
idea: man’s ruin by sin and his redemption
bv grace; in a word, Jesus (Jhrist, the Sa
viour Erom the dim promise at the fall to
the “ Lamb in tho midst of the throne” which
the Apostle saw from the rocky and barren
isle, Jesus is set forth as the burden of the
promises, tho medium of blessings, and the
object of saving faith.
» The Bilvor-Bounding instruments did meet
With tho base murmur of tho water h fall;
Tho water's fall with difforonco discreet,

How shall wo account for this unity ot the
Bible? Remember what kind of unity it is.
It is not, says one, that apparent unity which
might be produced by a language common to
all its parts, for the deepest possible gulf di
vides the two languages in which the Old ana
New Testament were written. Neither is it a
unity produced by likeness of form, for the
forms aTe various and diverse as can bo con
ceived ; new song, now history, now dialogue,
now narrative, now familiar letter, now pro
phetic vision. Neither is it a unity such as
might arise from all parts of the book being
the upgrowth of a single age, and so all
breathing alike the spirit of that age-tor no
single age beheld the birth ot this book, .which
was well nigh two thonsand years ere it was
fully formed, and had reached its final com
pletion. Nor yeJt.can this unity be accounted
for from its havth'g but ono class ot men for
its human authors, since men not of one class
alone, but* of many, and those the widest
apart, kings and herdsmen, warriors and I
fishermen, wise men and simple, were em
ployed in writing it. The truth is, that deeper
than all these outward eireomstances, and in
spite of them all, does the unity of the Scrip
tures lie, since .all these circumstances, in
their natural operation, would have tended to
an opposite result. _ ...
Suppose the Bible to be blotted out ot ex
istence, and some sixty or seventy persons,
scattered through different ages of the world,
had undertaken to write on religious subjects;’
and.their works were comprised in a volume.
Who does not see that such a work would
have been the merest theological jargon ? Bet
the wild, and incoherent speculations ot
heathen philosophy, and the thousand varie
ties of pagan religion, give the answer to this
demand. Who does not see, also, thatas soon
might wen of understanding be induced to
climb to tlie.stars as to hone that a new reli
gion, thus conceived and constructed at ran
dom, could, as Christianity has done, by the
force of its own evidence,win its way through
the world, overthrow every opposing system,
extend its triumphs, and finally establish itselt
in the most civilized nations, in spite of the
most learned, the most, determined, and the
most powerful adversaries ? The inviolable
uniformity ofithe Scriptures, therefore, is one
among the many and mighty indices of their
Divine origin. It cannot possibly ba other
wise regarded.
“ Whence, but from Heaven,could men unskilled in arts,
In several ngeßborn, in several parts,
Weaveauch agreeing truths? or how.orvrhy.
Should all conspiro to cheat ua,witli a lie ?
Ciiuak’d their pains, ungrateful their advice.
Starving their gain, any martyrdom their prico.
CITY BUjLJLETHN.
—The Colonnade Hotel, on Chestnut street,
above Fifteenth, has been completed, and is
now in operation. It is a very fine addition
to the hotel accommodations of Philadelphia.
It stands on the site of three of the dwellings
of “ Colonnade Kow,” and is owned by Mr.
John Crump, the builder, who commenced
the alterations about eighteen months ago.
The building is five stories in height, and its
exterior appearance is plain, but neat. Its in
terior arrangements are, perhaps, superior to
those of any hotel of its size in the country.
The ladies’and, gentlemen’s parlors are fur
nished in a sumptudus and costly style. The
house contains about eighty rooms. Of these,
lifty-two are sleeping apartments, and from
top to bottom all are furnished in a comfort
able manner. The suites of rooms are all pro
vided with stationary wash-stands,bath-rooms,
water-closets and other conveniences. Over
each bureau there are gas-burners, as an ad
ditional accommodation in making the toilet.
Every modern improvement has been intro
duced. The dining-halls are large, airy and
handsome. In the basement there is a billiard
salooD. The hotel has been open for a week,
and about one-fourth of the rooms are already
occupied. The cost of the structure and fitting
up was-about $225,000. It is proposed to
double its size and capacity in the course of a
year. Mr. Crump has secured the services of
>lr. Geo. Freeman as Superintendent and
Manager. Mr. Freeman is well and favorably
known to many of our citizens by his connee
tion-with hotels at Harrisburg and Atlantic
City. He has surrounded himself with compe
tent assistants, and being a thorough master
of his business, will undoubtedly make the
new enterprise a successful one.

Improve upon theoriginal; and that in so doing he has
aimed not «o much to imitate other makes of sauce as to
excel them. That hehas6uecofded in this he has the as
surance of many competoht judges; and ho can refer
with satisfaction to the qualities of proper body, fine
bright color, appetizing odor and superior flavor which
he has succeeded in attaining to iu the preparation of

of its ingredients are pure and wholesome.
The favorable judgment pronounced upon the Sauce
bv the proprietors of many of the leading hotels and
restaurants oftliis city, who have been for some time

merits will thereby becamo more apoedily known, and
insure for it that wide demand which h* has now pre

Ijaht evening at sunset began the Jewish
Beast of the Passover, sunset of the 15th day.
of April being the beginning of the 14th day
of the Hebrew month Nissan. The feast was
instituted by Moses, the law-giver, in com
memoration of the fact that while the Des
troying Angel was passing over the land of
Egypt for the destruction of the first-born, he
spared the children of the Israelites.
The Rev. K. H. Allen, D. D., pastor of the
Old l’ine Street Church, recently preached
bis third anniversary Bermon. Duriug the
three years 289 persons have united with the
church, 205 of them on profession of faith. Re
movals by dismiwion and death, l'.'A ; contri
butions for causes "outside of the congrega
tion, the third year, were 48,57f1, a sum over
three times the amount contributed the first
year.
The revival which has been progressing the
past winter at the Bethel African M. E.
Church, Sixth and Bombard streets, has re
snlted in the addition of three hundred con
verts. It is proposed that a new church or
ganization be formed at once, and a colony
sent to work where they will have room. Bcv.
Mr. Williams, the pastor, has labored effi
ciently, and it is suggested that the new move
ment lake the name of “ Williams’ Chapel.”
To-day is the last day of Lent. Glancing
at the manner in which the season was ob
served in ancient times, and reviewing the
way we of later days have modernized it, one
mav perceive a vast difference. Sack-cloth
and ashes; humility almost divine ; helping
each other as spiritual means to gain eternal,
happy homes, was the order then. Now, the
formerly rigorous time is hardly more than a
simple relaxation of festivities, pleasures, &c.
However, many can congratulate themselves
upon having spent the time beneficially, and
can enter anew upon worldly duties and cares
with rejuvenerated spirits and happy con
sciences.
The first anniversary ef the Young People’s
Association of the Green Street M. E. Church,
Green street, above Tenth, was held op Thurs
day evening last. The report .showed that
50,000 pages of tracts had been distributed dur
ing the year, and prayer-meetings have been
held in private honses, halls, ete.' A mission
school has recently been established at Elev
enth street and Ridge avenue, with encourag
ing prospects. The Association has also en
gaged in various other good works, showing
that it is in a prosperous condition. Ad
dresses were delivered- by Rev. James Efeill
and Rev. J. AY. Jackson. The exercises were
enlivened by choice selections of mtisic from
the choir.
Tm Dunkards in this eountry date back to
1720, when a small colony settled in German
town, near this city. They believe in the doc
trine of the Trinity, the inspiration of the
Scriptures, and the evangelical view, of the
Atonement. - Their distinguishing tenets are
triune immersion, and tho ordinance of feel
washing. They will not bear arms or appeal
to civil courts in matters of dispnte. Their
preachers are chosen by lot, and receive no
pay for their services. Not a few of them hold
to the final restoration of all mankind. They
keep no church records, so that their exact
membership is unknown. They probably rep
resent a population of 150,000. They are es
pecially strong in tho interior of this (State,
where they are knowu/or their simplicity of
manners and correct deportment. Their an
nual meetings, or “ lebesmahls,” are attended
by delegates from all parts of the United States.
There are thirteen different branches of the
Presbyterian Church in this country. They
are distinguished as the Reunited Presbyte
rian Church, the Cumberland Presbyterians,
the Southern Presbyterians and the United
Presbyterians. These are all large bodies.
The smaller ones, chiefly of Scotch origin, ars

which has been split in two by the expulsion
of Mr. George H. Stuart; the Associate Re r
formed Synod of the South, with 68 ministers;

13 ministers, and the Associate Synod of Nenf
