INTRODUCTION. PREVIOUS to the American Revolution this country was supplied with Bibles in the English language, chiefly from Great Britain. Publishers in the Plantations are represented as having been under the impression, that if they reprinted the work, they would be guilty of an infringement of the exclusive right possessed by certain parties in England, and expose themselves to prosecution. If we add to this, the abundant supply from abroad; the low price of English copies,' and, above all, the fashion which then gave, as it now gives, a preference to issues from the English press, we shall find the causes that prevented the publication of the Bible in the Old Colonies, as they are at present a bar to its publication in the remaining British Possessions on this Continent. We might, therefore, have come down to the era of American Independence without meeting an American Bible, had not an humble Indian Missionary, as devoted as he was disinterested, translated the sacred volume for his little flock. Thus, the first edition of the Bible " that was ever printed In a trial in England, between John Baskett, plaintiff, and Henry Pearson, defendant, the price of the Common English Nonpareil Bible, was stated to have been in 1690, 2s. 6d., and in 1720, 21d. It fell subsequently to a shilling. No American publisher could compete against such prices. Vi INTR O DU CTION. in all America since the very foundations of the world,"' came forth most appropriately in a purely American language, a monument of the patience, piety, and zeal of the venerable ELIOT. In 1678, A Harmony of the Gospels, by the same author, followed; in 1707 a portion, and in 1708 the whole, of The Gospel of St. John, was published at Boston, in Indian and English, and these are all that had been accomplished in this country in the field of Biblical literature, at the commencement of the eighteenth century, if we except some metrical versions of the Psalms and detached pieces of Scripture. COTTON MATHER was undoubtedly the first who projected the publication in America of an edition of the Bible in English. He commenced the preparation of what he called the Biblia Americana, about the year 1695, and having spent fifteen years in collecting and compiling notes, comments and expositions, announced, in 1710, the completion of his work, in an Advertisement at the end of one of his Tracts,2 hoping "that the Glorious head of the Church will stir up some generous minds to forward an undertaking so confessedly worthy to be prosecuted." But this hope was not realized. No printer could be found in the Colonies to hazard such an enterprise. Disappointed at home, Dr. Mather determined to make an appeal abroad, and in 1713 issued another Prospectus, addressed mainly to London publishers. As the matter of the Advertisement of 1710 is included in the Prospectus of' Mather's Magaclia, Book III, 197. 2 Bonifacius. An Essay upon the Good, that is to be Devised and Designed, by those Who Desire to Answer the Great End of Life, and to Do Good while they Live. BOSTON in N. England: Printed by B. Green, for Samuel Gerrish at his Shop in Corn Hill, 1710. 16mo. This rare tract is in the Library of the Massachusetts Historical Society. INTRODUCTION. vii 1713, we shall content ourselves with reproducing the latter only. It is entitled A I NEW OFFER I TO THE LOVERS OF I RELIGION AND LEARNING. | It is Agreed by all true Christians, and most Certain to them, That we are highly Favoured of Heaven, with a Divine Storehouse of Truth in our SACRED SCRIPTURES. The World has nothing in it comparable to this BOOK OF GOD, and of Life. A Book, which all the Learning under Heaven may be well employ'd, for the Illustration of; and is never so well employ'd, as when so employ'd. The Illustration of it, is indeed the most Serviceable and the most Entertaining Thing, that can be offered unto them that have any Value, and Relish or Concern for that Knowledge, which is of all the most valuable, and that would be Wise unto the best of Purposes. It is a passage of the Celebrated BOYL;'When I Consider, how much' more to the Advantage of the Sacred Writings, and of Christian Theology'in general, diverse Texts have been Explained, and Discoursed of, by the' Excellent Grotius, Masiits, Mede, and Sir Francis Bacon, and some other'late great Witts (to name now no Living ones,) in their several Kinds, than'the same Places have been handled by Vulgar Expositors, and other'Divines; And when I consider, that none of these Worthies, was at once'a great Philosopher and a great Critick; I cannot but hope, that when it'shall please God, to stir up Persons of a Philosophical Genius, well fur-' nished with Critical Learning, and the Principles of true Philosophy, and'shall give them an hearty Concern for the Advance of His Truths, these.'Men will make Explications and Discoveries that shall be Admirable. You'shall no more measure the Wisdom of God couched in the Bible by the'Glosses and Systems of common Expositors,l than aestimate the Wisdom'He has express'd in the Contrivance of the World, by Magirus's or Eusta-' chius's Physicks. This Wise Man was a Prophet, when he, wrote those Lines. An Age of Light comes on; Explications and Discoveries are continually growing; which all that will but shew themselves Men cannot but imbibe with Satisfaction. The Path of the Just One, in His gracious Approaches towards us, causes the Light which opens His Oracles unto us, to shine more and more towards the, perfect Day. Doubtless the Pagan Longinus pleased his Jewish Empress the brave Zenobia, when she read him admiring the High Style of Moses in that stately Stroke of the Creation; God said, Let there be Light; And there was Light! But how admirable is that great Work of the most High God, which has given effectual Order for His Church in our Day; Let there and Preachers. Advertisement of 1710. viii INTRODUCTION. be Light in it, and let my Oracles be Illustrated! And, Lo, there is Light, and the Illustrations of the Sacred Scriptures are carried on to Wonderment! The Instruments by whom this Light is brought down unto us, have of late been greatly Multiplied: God has given His Word for it, and Great has been the Army of those that have published it. Anon, We have the Admirable WITSIUS Comforting of us, with his Report,' of this Importance. Neq; profecto Officio hic suo defuerunt Illustres Animwe.' There have not been wanting those Illustrious Men, [And' Thou, my dear Witsius, not the least of them!] who have observed all the'Solid Discoveries in Philosophy, all the Curious Researches of Antiquity, or'that has occurred in Physick, or in Law, relating to the Sacred Scriptures,'and have applied it all with a signal Dexterity to the Illustration thereof:'And so'tis come to pass, that Theology, which had vast riches of its own'before, is now also enriched with foreign Spoils, and appears with those'Ornaments, which extort, even from them that are most of all disaffected'unto it, a Confession of its most Charming Majesty. The noble Service to Mankind, thus proposed, having been so far pursued, it is easy to imagine, that a Person of but common Abilities, [for He who now Writes may pretend unto no more;] applying himself unto it, may accomplish a very Rich Collection of Illustrations upon the Sacred Scriptures. An ADVERTISEMENT now comes forth, to Inform the Friends of Learning and Religion, that it is in some degree accomplished. An, Opus Ecclesine, is ready when it shall be call'd for. No little Part of what has been Written on the great Intention of Illustrating the Divine Oracles has been perused. Some Hundreds of the Latest as well as of the Oldest Writers that have had any thing looking that way, have been Consulted: If not for Number enough to have built an Egyptian Pyramid, yet so many, as to render the Extract alone which is now made from them, a sort of Library. Where small Pamphlets, as well as large Volumns, have made any valuable Offerings to the Service of the Sanctuary, they have not been wholly neglected. The Names of them, whose grateful Stores have been brought into this Common Hive, whether they be Dead or Living, are with all decent Ingenuity acknowledged and eternized. Not only the Rare Thoughts of the more Illustrious Literators, who are known for Stars of the first Magnitude in the Catalogue of them that have handled the Pen of the Writer, but also the Hints occurring in Books that have made no Profession of serving this Cause, and many of them very unsuspected ones, have been seized for it. Many Thousands of those Fine Thoughts, whereof sometimes One or Two, or a very Few, have enabled a Writer to find some Acceptance in setting up for Authorism, are here together set upon the Table, in order to a Feast of Fat Things full of Marrow, of Wines in the Lees well refined. It cannot be presumed that the INTRODUCTION. ix Eye of the poor Industry, which has laboured on this Design, has yet seen every precious Thing, yet in the more than three Lustres of years which have run since it began the Undertaking, it has often visited the Place of Sapphires, and found the Dust of Gold, which is here to be exposed unto the more Sensible and Ingenuous part of Mankind, when it shall be thought a time for it. And it may be easily supposed, that one of no more than a Common Reach, Conversing so much with such Things, may now and then also make a feeble Flight towards an Illustration of his own, that may deserve Attention. There is an American Plant, which alone, as Hernandez will with some Demonstration tell us, Quicquid vitae esse potest Necessarium, facile prestare potest; it will answer all the Necessities of Humane Life, yea, and supply the Delicacies of it also. It is possible, this American Work, may with as Universal an Accommodation, afford what may be Necessary, yea, and what may be likewise Delectable to them, who in acquainting themselves with the Best of Books, and Things, would have their Studies well accommodated. The Collection makes Two FOLIO'S of some considerable. Dimensions, which now lye ready for Publication: Hoping that Vossius's Complaint of another Country, will not always be true of Ours, That one can hardly get any thing Printed, but either Quarrels or Trifes; Eristica et Nugalia, quibus nihil vendibilius, ut ipsi non dissimulant Typographi. It has been studied, that this Work might not interfere with the large English Annotations, begun by the Excellent POOL, and finished by some of' his Brethren. Those Polan Annotations have been left almost wholly unconsulted, in the Composing of this Work, that their Value and Vending may not suffer the least measure of Depreciation from it. Nor will the inestimable Performances of such as Mr. Matthew lTHenry lose the least Grain of their Esteem with the Faithful, by having this Work to wait, (if the Public pleaseto have it so) as an Appendix upon them. These Composures will be singularly useful to one another. The Work is attempted by a Person so strictly adhering to the Principles of the Christian Religion, professed in the Reformed Churches, that the Reader is perfectly released and secured from all Fear of his finding here,. any dangerous Innovations in, or Deviations from, the Faith once delivered' unto the Saints. Instead of that, he will very frequently find, that the most important Articles of our most Holy Faith, are here defended with a New Force, by setting in a Clear Light such Texts, as have not been observed heretofore to carry such Assertions in them, or have been encumbred with the Glosses which Men of Corrupt Minds have put upon them. Nevertheless, the Attempt is carried on, with such a Catholick Spirit, that it may be hoped no Good Man, will have any Matter of just offence given unto him. It is not a Work animated with the Spirit of a Party; and it may be hoped, that B x INTRODUCTION. nothing but that ungenerous and comtemptible Spirit, will cast the disdainful Eye of the Scorner upon it. Accordingly it is already come to pass, that very Eminent Persons, Divines of great Note, in the Church by Law Established, having been apprised of the Work, have generously offered their best Encouragements unto it. Numbers of the best Men among the Dissenters have expressed their Wishes, not without some Impatience for it. Scotland also invites it, expects it, requires it. In America,'tis asked for, and waited for. And there may be some hope, That all-Impartial Christians, of whatever Denomination or Subdivision in Christianity, will reckon it, An useful Work. For indeed Common Sense will say, it must needs be so, if the Books, from which the Best Things are fetch'd, and laid here together, were so. And yet, there is more than this, to argue for it. Briefly, Men of every Religion, yea, and some of no Religion at all, have had Spoils taken from them, for the Enriching of this Work; And, why should not all good Men, who embrace the True Religion, tho' of different Perswasions in some lesser Points of it, Unite in the Enjoyment of the Riches? To bestow the Censure of Pride and Vanity, on the proposing of such a Work for Publication, would be therewith to Censure and Reproach all Attempts in such a way to serve the Public. Most certainly'tis no Trespass against the Rules of Modesty, to give the Public a Report and a Tender, of what has been thus prepared for it; but it would look like one against the Rules of Equity, to call it so. Most certainly, it is a Jilodest Thing, a Sober, a Proper, and a very Lawfitl One, for an Honest Mlan to desire, that so much of a short Life, as has been spent in such a Preparation, should not be spent in Vain. The Pen, which all along this Work, pays all due Acknowledgments unto those, whom the Sovereign GoD furnished and honoured with the Treasures, which are thro' their Hands come into it, seeks not its own Honour; And if even the small Reputation of a little Diligence and C(ontrivance be denied unto it, in this also it will Propound all imaginable Satisfaction. It would, if that had been possible, have kept the Authors Name under such a Reservation, that it must have been only a Retainer to Placcius's Treatise, De Scriptoribus Anonymis. It is content, that the Writer be Clouded with all possible Obscurity; and that it be left wholly unconsidered, whether he has ever given any Testimony of a tolerable Capacity for such a Work as this, by any other Performances; or, whether any considerable Societies in the World, have ever thought him worthy of being Theirs. It has nothing to object against as many Diminutions and Annihilations, as the superiour Part of Mankind may think agreeable for him. He only desires, that the Oblations which he brings from those that may be accounted Better than himself, (and which he might, if he had pleased, have made in the most common Methods, INTRODUCTION. xi to pass for, His own), may find Acceptance with the Church, to which we all owe our All: And that AMERICA may at length, with a Benign and Smiling Aspect of her Lady-Mother upon her, come in to do something, for an Interest that must have these uttermost Parts of the Earth for its Possession. Sometimes very mean Things, have on the score of their being Far-fetcht, had a value set upon them, and not been look'd upon as too Dear-bought, when a great Price has been given for them. If a Work, which is a Tree, that grew on the Western side of the Atlantic, may on that score hope to be valued by good Men, in the other Hemisphere, there will be an accession of this peculiar Circumstance, that, Gentlemen, the Fruits upon it, or at least, the Seeds that produced them, were most of them, Originally Your own: And it cannot but be a Pleasure, if not a Surprize unto you, to find that so many of your Best Things, have passed over the great and wide Sea unto the American Strand. Nor will it be New or Strange, if some Things happen to be Meliorated, and made more Sweet and Fine, by passing over this mighty Ocean. Or, to address you under another Figure; The Writers whom you made much of, while you had them at Home with you in a more separate Condition, certainly, will not lose your Favour, for having Travelled Abroad, and now Returned Home in Company; tho' with their Habit and Language having something of an American Change upon it. But, what brings this Promiser, that may be worthy of so much Expectation? THIS is the TITLE of it. These Promises may be made in the Title-Page of it. Behold here, a Communi Fax, unto it. [Here follows the Title, reprinted at page 19, post.] ~ The usual Method for the Publication of such a Work, has been, first of all to Publish PROPOSALS for SUBSCRIPTIONS: For who can Dream, that such Bulky & Costly Things, can unassisted, make their own way into the World? But in the present Case, the Distance of the Author from Europe, & the Abode of the Work in America till it may be sent over with some hopeful Encouragement, and the uncertainty of what may be the precise Number of Sheets which will be needful on the Occasion, will oblige to something a little Unusual in the way of Proceeding. Understanding that the Work will make Two Volumns in FOLIO, it is proposed, That it shall be afforded unto Subscribers, at the same Rate, that such Books, of the same Quantity, and in the same Character, have usually been afforded at: Which is a Rate so generally Agreed (and very seldom or little Varied,) that the venture of a more Indefinite Subscribing for it, need not be much scrupled at. xii INTRODUCTION. N, It shall also be insisted on, with the Booksellers, that whoever shall procure and send in Subscriptions for Nine Sets of this Work, shall have a Tenth Gratis. It is therefore PROPOSED, that the Persons who are Well-wishers to a Work of this Intention and Usefulness, would send in their Names, affixed unto the following Declaration. When it shall please GoD, that the Work Entituled, BIBLIA AMERICANA, whereof the Public has been Advertised, in the New Offer to the Lovers of Religion and Learning; shall be Published, (and if it be done without unnecessary Delays) the Subscriber will take off a Sett, (namely, The Two Volumns) at the Price assign'd by the Booksellers, with the Advice of Three unexceptionable Ministers of the City of London, within the general Rate which for a Work so Circumstanced has been formerly declared Reasonable.' This Appeal met with no better success than the first. A third attempt to obtain a publisher was made in 1728, but it likewise was unsuccessful; and the Manuscript, as it came one hundred and fifty years ago from the hands of the literary Giant of New England, now sleeps forgotten and almost unknown, amid the Collections of the Massachusetts Historical Society, a reproof to the wealth and a reproach to the enterprise of the present generation. Nearly half a century passed without a line of Scripture having been printed in this country, except, perhaps, in Psalters or Prayer Books. At length, what others with greater pretensions failed to accomplish, was effected by an humble, painstaking Immigrant, to whom the honor belongs of having given to America the first edition of the Bible in a European language. CHRISTOPHER SAUR was born in Germany in 1693; immigrated to this country in 1724, and settled permanently in Germantown, Pa., in 1731. Being of a religious temperament and of a reflecting turn of mind, his attention was di-' From the Tract in the Library of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Mass. INTRODUCTION. xiii rected to the destitute condition of his countrymen in respect to books, especially the Scriptures. He procured a printing press and types, and commenced the business of a publisher in 1738. In 1740 he began printing an edition of the Bible in German, and in 1743 completed the volume, which will be found fully described under that year. Mr. Saur died in 1758, before another edition of the Bible was called for. His son reprinted an edition of the work in 1763 consisting of two thousand copies, and another of three thousand copies in 1776;1 but most of the latter were seized in the war of the Revolution and used as cartridge paper or as litter for horses. Mr. Saur's daughter succeeded, however, in rescuing the sheets of ten complete copies which she caused to be bound.2 Meanwhile, KNEELAND & GREEN of Boston (it is alleged), printed principally for Daniel Henchman, an edition of the Bible in the English language, in small quarto. It was carried through the press as privately as possible, and had the London imprint of the copy from which it was reprinted, viz:' London: Printed by Mark Baskett, Printer to the King's Most Excellent Majesty," in order to prevent a prosecution from those, in England and Scotland, who published the Bible by a patent from the Crown; or Curm privilegio, as did the English Universities at Oxford and Cambridge. "When I was an apprentice (continues Mr. Thomas), I often heard those who had assisted at the case and press in printing this Bible, make mention of the fact. The late Gov. Hancock was related to Henchman, and knew the particulars of the transaction. He possessed a copy of this impression. As it had a London imprint, at this day it can be 1Simpson's Eminent Jien of Philadelphia. 2 The Rev Dr. Holmes says in his American Annals, II, 486 (note), that Saur's edition of 1776 " was the first quarto Bible, that ever issued from an American press." He apparently was ignorant of the editions of 1743 and 1763, and had forgotten Eliot's Indian Bibles. xiv INTRODUCTION. distinguished from an English edition of the same date, only by those who are acquainted with the niceties of typography. This Bible issued from the press about the time that the partnership of Kneeland & Green expired.l The edition was not large; I have been informed that it did not exceed seven or eight hundred copies. " Not long after the time that this impression of the Bible came from the press, an edition of the New Testament, in duodecimo, was printed by Rogers and Fowle, for those at whose expense the Bible issued. Both the Bible and the Testament were well executed.... The credit of this edition of the Testament was, for the reason I have mentioned, transferred to the King's printer, in London, by the insertion of his imprint."2 And, farther on, Mr. Thomas adds: " During the partnership of Rogers and Fowle they printed an edition of about two thousand copies of the New Testament, 12mo., for D. Henchman, and two or three other principal booksellers, as has been already observed. "' This impression of the Testament, the first in the English language printed in this country, was, as I have been informed, completed at the press before Kneeland and Green began the edition of the Bible which has been mentioned. " Zechariah Fowle, with whom I served my apprenticeship, as well as several others, repeatedly mentioned to me this edition of the Testament. He was at the time, a journeyman with Rogers and Fowle, and worked at the press. He informed me, that on account of the weakness of his constitution, he greatly injured his health by the performance. Privacy in the business was necessary; and as few hands were intrusted with the secret, the press work was, as he thought, very laborious. I mention these minute circumstances in proof that an edition of the Testament did issue 11752. 2 Thomas, History of Printing, I, 305, 306. INTRODUCTION. xv from the office of Rogers and Fowle, because I have heard that the fact has been disputed."' We have here given at length, in justice to Mr. Thomas, all he has stated on the subject of these editions, the printing of which has been not only disputed anew, but denied by Mr. Bancroft, who asserts that the Bible "was never printed here in English until the land became free," and then adds in a note: Thomas... repeats only what he heard. Himself a collector, he does not profess ever to have seen a copy of the alleged American edition of the English Bible. Search has repeatedly been made for a copy, and always. without success. Six or eight hundred Bibles in quarto could hardly have. been printed, bound and sold in Boston, then a small town, undiscovered. Nor would they all have disappeared. The most complete catalogues of English Bibles enumerate no one with the imprint, which was said to have been copied. Till a copy of the pretended American edition is produced, no credit can be given to the second-hand story, which is moreover at variance with the statement of Dr. Chauncey, the minister of the first Church of Boston, at the time of the pretended publication.2 The reader has here before him what has been said, on both sides, regarding the alleged Kneeland & Green (or Mark Baskett) Bible of 1752. Bibles near that year have been found with the following imprints: London: Printed by Thomas Baskett, Printer to the King's Most Excellent Majesty, and by the Assigns of Robert Barker. 1751. Folio.

On page xxi, post, will be found a letter from Dr. Chauncey on the lack of facilities for printing an edition of the Bible in Boston in 1782, but as Mr. Bancroft has omitted to indicate the source whence he derived the statement he attributes to that clergyman, we are unable to say whether the letter now published be that source. xvi INTRODUCTION.

But as yet all efforts to discover a copy corresponding with that mentioned by Mr. Thomas, have, as far as we are aware, been unsuccessful: the titles of both Bible and Testament are, therefore, omitted in the present List. Before taking leave of the subject it may not, perhaps, be out of place to notice a discrepancy in Mr. Thomas's account, in regard to the time that the New Testament was printed; that event having occurred, according to his statement in one place, c" Not long after the time that the impression of the Bible came from the press," whilst in another place he says, 1" This impression of the Testament.... was, as I have been informed, completed at the press before Kneeland and Green began the edition of the Bible which has been mentioned."l Whilst engaged in examining the several points connected with this matter, we were curious to know whether the Patent to Baskett did actually extend to, and include the Colonies. We accordingly endeavored to procure a copy of that to John Baskett under which we supposed that Mark Baskett held. The subjoined letters will show the result.

[Here follows a letter from "' The late Revd. and Pious Mr. Whitefield recommendatory of Dr. Clark's edition of the Bible.]' This project however, failed through want of encouragement; at so low an ebb, says Dr. Miller, was the book trade in our country;2 for books printed in London, however executed, sold better than those which were printed in America.3 The breaking out of the Revolution having, soon after, cut off the supply of " books printed in London," the scarcity of Bibles also came soon to be felt. Dr. PATRICK ALLISON, one of the Chaplains of Congress, and other gentlemen brought the subject before that body in a Memorial in which they urged the Printing of an edition of the Scriptures. On the 11th September, 1777, the Committee to whom that Memorial was referred, reported; From the Broad Sheet in possession of George Livermore, Esq., of Boston. 2 Brief Retrospect, I, 362. 3 History of Printing, I, 362, 363. xx INTRODUCTION. The Committee to whom the Memorial of Doctor Allison and others was referred, report, " that they have conferred fully with the printers, &c., in this city, and are of opinion that the proper types for printing the bible are not to be had in this country, and that the paper cannot be procured, but with such difficulties and subject to such casualities as to render any dependance on it altogether improper: that to import types for the purpose of setting up an entire edition of the bible, and to strike of 30,000 copies, with paper, binding, &c., will cost 10.2721. 10s. Od., which must be advanced by Congress to be reimbursed by the sale of the books: that in the opinion of the Committee considerable difficulties will attend the procuring the types and paper, that afterwards the risque of importing them will considerably enhance the cost, and that the calculations are subject to such uncertainty in the present state of affairs, that Congress cannot much rely on them: that the use of the bible is so universal, and its importance so great, that your Committee refer the above to the consideration of Congress, and if Congress shall not think it expedient to order the importation of types and paper, the Committee recommend that Congress will order the Committee of Congress to import 20,000 bibles from Holland, Scotland, or elsewhere, into the different ports of the States of the Union." Whereupon it was resolved accordingly to direct said Committee to import 20,000 copies of the bible. On this motion, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Georgia, voted in the affirmative; New York, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina in the negative.' The demand could not fail to stimulate American Publishers to increased exertion. Accordingly, ROBERT AITKEN, a native of Scotland, who, a few years previous, had become a printer in Philadelphia, issued in 1777 an edition of the New Testament, the first printed in English in this country, with an American imprint. Other editions followed in each of the years immediately succeeding, and on the 21st January, 1781, Mr. Aitken announced, in a petition to Congress, that he had undertaken to print an edition of the Bible entire. In the following year, the Rev. Dr. LYMAN, of Hatfield, Mass., addressed a letter to the Association of Congregational 1 Journal of Congress for 1777-78, p. 387. INTRODUCTION. Xxi Ministers in Boston, urging the necessity of publishing an edition of the Holy Scriptures. This Association did not feel warranted to move in the matter, as appears by the following answer: BOSTON, April 2, 1782. REV. SIR: I have communicated your letter to the Associated Ministers in this town, and they are unanimously of the opinion that the measure your Association have proposed for an impression of the Bible, will not answer, and for these reasons: All the printers in town put together have not types sufficient for such an impression; and if they had, proper paper, in quantity, is not to be procured but by sending for it to Europe. Besides, if there was a sufficiency both of type and paper, the Bibles could not possibly be sold so cheap as those that are imported from abroad. Moreover, an impression could not be completed within two years, as it must be a very large one, and would not be for the advantage either of the printers or buyers of the books, if the number was less than twenty or thirty thousand. Furthermore, there is not the least reasonable prospect the General Court would be at the expense of such an impression of the Bible, as they are so greatly in debt. I would yet add, I have spoken with some of our printers and booksellers, who concur with the Ministers in town in their opinions upon your proposed measure; and say further, that Bibles are now imported from Holland, and more may daily be expected. I should have written before now, but that I knew of no opportunity of sending to you, and I know of none at present, but think it proper to have a letter in readiness to be sent, whenever I can hear of a way to send it. I am in the name of our Association here, Your humble Servant, Rev. WM. JOSEPH LYMAN. CHARLES CHAUNCEY.' Meanwhile Mr. Aitken's petition to Congress was referred to a Committee consisting of Messrs. Duane, McKean and Witherspoon, who reported on the 21st September, 1782, That Mr. Aitken has at a great expense now finished an American edition of the Holy Scriptures in English; that the Committee have, from time to time, attended to his progress in the Work; that they also recommended it to the Two Chaplains of Congress to examine and give their opinion of the 1 Communicated by George Livermore, Esq. xxii INTRODUCTION. execution, who have accordingly reported thereon, the recommendation and report being as follows: PHILADELPHIA, September 1st, 1782. REVEREND GENTLEMEN: Our knowledge of your piety and public spirit leads us without apology to recommend to your particular attention the edition of the Holy Scriptures publishing by Mr. Aitken. He undertook this expensive work at a time when from the circumstances of the War, an English edition of the Bible could not be imported, nor any opinion formed how long -the obstruction might continue. On this account particularly he deserves applause and encouragement. We therefore wish you, reverend gentlemen, to examine the execution of the work, and if approved to give it the sanction of your judgment and the weight of your recommendation. We are, with very great respect, your most obedient humble servants, (Signed.) JAMES DITANE, Chairman, in behalf of a Committee of Congress, on Mr. Aitken's Memorial. Reverend Doctor WHITE and Reverend Mr. DUFFIELD, Chaplains of the United States in Congress Assembled. Report. GENTLEMEN: Agreeably to your desire, we have paid attention to Mr. Robert Aitken's impression of the Holy Scriptures, of the old and new testament. Having selected and examined a variety of passages throughout the work, we are of opinion that it is executed with great accuracy as to the sense, and with as few gramatical and typographical errors as could be expected in an undertaking of such magnitude. Being ourselves witnesses of the demand for this invaluable book, we rejoice in the present prospect of a supply, hoping that it will prove as advantageous as it is honorable to the gentleman, who has exerted himself to furnish it at the evident risk of his private fortune. We are, gentlemen, your very respectful and humble servants, (Signed.) WILLIAM WHITE, GEORGE DUFFIELD. Honorable JAMES DUANE, Esquire, Chairman, and the other honorable gentlemen of the Committee of Congress on Mr. Aitken's Memorial. Philadelphia, September 10, 1782. Whereupon, Resolved, That the United States in Congress assembled, highly approve the pious and laudable undertaking of Mr. Aitken, as subservient to the INTRODUCTION. XXiii interest of religion as well as an instance of the progress of arts in this country, and being satisfied from the above report, of his care and accuracy in the execution of the work, they recommend this edition of the bible to the inhabitants of the United States, and hereby authorize him to publish this recommendation in the manner he shall think proper.l This was the first Bible printed in this country in the English language having an American imprint. It was a small duodecimo, in two volumes, on a brevier type. The report of the Committee and of the resolution of Congress (sometimes called, in consequence, The Bible Congress2) are reprinted on a leaf immediately following the title page. The recommendation, however, bore no fruit. Immediately after the publication of the work, peace was proclaimed, when it was found that Bibles could be imported from Great Britain cheaper than it was possible to print them here. Mr, Aitken, therefore, not obtaining a ready sale for his edition, which had been carried on with great difficulty, was nearly ruined by the undertaking.3 It was in view of this event that the Philadelphia Synod, on the 24th May, 1783, Resolved, As Mr. Aitken, from laudable motives, and with great expense, hath undertaken and executed an elegant impression of the Holy Scriptures, which on account of the importation of Bibles from Europe, will be very injurious to his temporal circumstances, the Synod agree that the Committee to purchase Bibles for distribution among the Poor, purchase Aitken's Bibles and no other, and earnestly recommend it to all to purchase such in preference to any other.4 The habit of depending either directly or indirectly on Government or Government Agents, for a supply of the Scriptures, had hitherto served only to cripple the American 1 Journal of Congress, New York: Patterson, 1787, vII, 468, 469.. 2 Strickland's History of The American Bible Society. 3 Brief Retrospect, ii, 387, note. 4Records of the Presbyterian Church, 1758-1788, Philadelphia, 1841, 500. xxiv INTRODUCTION. press. The Germans, as we have seen, unaided by any such patronage or recommendations, had already published several editions of the Bible; William Woodhouse of Philadelphia, equally unaided, got out, in 1790, the Christian's Complete Family Bible; and in the same year the Catholics, succeeded in putting forth a Quarto edition of the Doway Bible. MATHEW CAREY, a native of Ireland, who, from political causes, was led to immigrate to this country, and who at this time was, we presume, the only Catholic in the Union extensively engaged in publishing, issued Proposals on the 26th January, 1789, for printing The Doway Bible by subscription, on the following CONDITIONS: 1. This Edition will follow verbatim the Translation executed at Doway. 2. It will be printed in large Quarto, on the same kind of Type, as fine Paper, and with the same number of Pages as in the Oxford Edition of the Bible. 3. The price to Subscribers will be Six Spanish Milled Dollars; one half to be paid at the time of Subscribing; the other on delivery of the Book neatly bound. 4. As soon as 400 copies are Subscribed for, it will be put to press and completed without delay. 5. The Subscribers' names will be prefixed as Patrons of the Work. Subscriptions received by the Rt. Rev. Dr. John Carroll, &c., &c. These conditions were modified from time to time. As several gentlemen, unacquainted with the nature of the printing business, objected to the price of the Volume, which they conceived ought to be only four dollars, the rate at which Mr. Collins proposed to publish a Church of England Bible of the same size and on the same kind of paper and types, Mr. Carey observed, that Mr. Collins stipulated for 3000 subscribers; independent of which number, the sale of his work would ever continue extensive; as it suited every denomination of Christians but one, who alone will be purchasers of the Doway translation. To those who know that the comparative ex INTRODUCTION. xxv pense of an edition is reduced in a ratio with the increase of number, more need not be said; those who do not, were referred to any candid printer to determine whether a Church of England Bible with a vast subscription and an almost unlimited sale, may not be published as advantageously (to say no more) at four dollars, as a Roman Catholic edition, with a very small subscription, and a very confined sale, at six dollars. But to obviate this objection, if eight hundred copies were subscribed for, at any time before the publication of the volume, the charge to subscribers was to be only five dollars, and only four, if twelve hundred. The following Clergymen were, in addition to the different booksellers, authorized to receive subscriptions for the work: The Right Rev. Dr. John Carroll and the Rev. Charles Sewall, in Baltimore; the Rev. John Ashton, Whitemarsh, and Revw Thos. Diggs, Mellwood, Prince George's county, Maryland; Rev. Robert Molyneux, Bohemia, Cecil county; Rev. L. Neale and Rev. Doyle, Port Tobacco; Rev. Ignatius Matthews, Rev. Augustus Jenkins, and Rev. John Boarman, Newtown,, Charles county; Rev. Henry Pile, Newport in said county;, Rev. James Walton, St. Inigo, St. Mary's county; Rev. Francis Beeston, Rev. Lawrence Graessel, and Rev. Thos. Keating, Philadelphia; Rev. James Pellentz, York county, Penna., and Rev. Mr. O'Brien, New York.' The Work was announced in press in October, and on Saturday the 12th of December, 1789, the following Advertisement appeared in the Pennsylvania Packet, notifying the Public of the issue of the first number. 1The above particulars are from various advertisements on the Covers of Carey's American Mutseum in possession of John McAllister, Esq., of Philadelphia, who most politely permitted copies and extracts to be made and transmitted to us through Edward Armstrong, Esq., of that city, to whom we acknowledge our indebtedness for much valuable assistance and information.

Those gentlemen to whose laudable exertions the printer is indebted for the encouragement he has already been honored with are respectfully requested once more to employ their zeal and industry to promote the further success of an attempt which they have sanctioned with their approbation and patronage. t t t The subscription still remains open on the original plan, viz: to pay three dollars at the time of subscribing and the same sum on the delivery of the volume.' 4ss.

Xxvii between 80 and 90 pages had been printed, when it was determined to publish the work in two volumes.' In September of that year the printers issued the following Addresses: To THE SUBSCRIBERS FOR THE DOWAY TRANSLATION OF THE VULGATE BIBLE. Ladies and Gentlemen: With unfeigned gratitude we return you our sincere thanks for the encouragement you have honored us with, in the prosecution of this important undertaking. The Delays though greater than were at first expected have not been greater than the extent of the work, and the tardiness of patronage at the first publication of the proposals and for a very long time afterwards, rendered inevitable. It at length draws to a conclusion, and will positively be published on the 12th day of November. Names of Subscribers will be received until the last day of October at which time the subscription list will be closed and put to press. These ladies and gentlemen therefore who are desirous to add their names to our respectable list as patrons of religion, are requested to favor us with them on or before that day. We hope and trust that every Roman Catholic family throughout the Union, who can afford the expense, will by their encouragement of this publication, at once evince their determination to shew their reverence for the Holy Scriptures-and to prove the futility of the charge, that they are forbidden the use of the Sacred Volume. TO THE PROTESTANTS OF THE UNITED STATES. Ladies and Gentlemen: We venture with some degree of confidence to solicit your patronage as well as that of the Roman Catholics for the first edition of the Doway translation of the Vulgate bible. Many of the most learned protestant divines have produced weighty objections to particular passages in the Common Church of England translation of the Scriptures. That there are various important errors in it, is too well known to admit of controversy. The frequent demands for a new translation, bear the strongest testimony to the truth of this observation: it is therefore worthy the attention of every candid Protestant to consider whether a comparison of the present translation with his own would not enable him to 1This conclusion is arrived at from the fact that "Vol. I" does not appear on any of the signatures preceding page 89; signature Aa. The previous pages would embrace a little more than three numbers. XXViii IN TRODUCTION. detect most, if not all of them-and thus to remove from his mind those doubts and difficulties which are fatal to true religion. Liberal minded Protestants who glory in the influence of the benign sun of toleration will probably be happy in an opportunity of uniting their names with those of the Roman Catholics who have supported this work-and thus evincing that they are superior to that wretched, that contemptible prejudice which confines its benevolence within the narrow pale of one religious denomination, as is the case with bigots of every persuasion. From persons of the latter class we expect no patronage. To encourage "a Popish Bible" would in their eyes be a heinous offense. But we fondly hope, that there are few of this description here-that persons of the former character abound-and that our subscription list, by uniting together the names of members of various and hitherto hostile denominations of Christians, will afford one proof-among many that might be produced-of the rapid advances that America has made in the divine principle of toleration. We are the public's devoted servants, Phil., Sept. 24, 1790. CAREY, STEWART & CO.1 This Work which is supposed to have been the first Quarto Bible published in English in the United States,2 finally appeared complete on the 1st of December, 1790, on type cast expressly for it by Messrs. Baine & Co.,3 but John Baine, the elder member of the firm, did not live to witness its final publication. He died in the preceding August.4 Meanwhile printers in other places were directing their attention to this department of literature. ISAAC COLLINS, a Member of the Society of Friends, originally from Delaware, but afterwards printer to the State of New Jersey and a resident of Trenton, published a New Testament in demiOctavo, as early as 1788. In 1789, appeared the following 1 Pennsylvania Packet, 3636, Sept. 25, 1790. E. A. 2 It is stated in Anderson's Annals of the English Bible, London, 1845, and in Rev.

WIL. LIVINGSTON. Trenton, 11th Sept., 1788. In consequence of subscriptions received, although far short of the number proposed, and the encouragement contained in the following extracts, the Editor has ventured to begin the Work, under a hope that many more citizens of America will patronize it, especially when they are informed Downame's Concordance, which is annexed to Eyre and Strahan's London quarto edition of 1772, will be added, without further expense to the Subscribers;-and he has determined to risk such a number of copies as he apprehends will be sufficient to cover all the subscriptions that may be obtained. Finding a variety of sentiments respecting the Apocrypha and Notes on the Text, the Editor informs the public, that he is desirous to comply with the wishes of every Subscriber, as well as with the directions of the Committees of different denominations on this head, Subscribers, therefore, upon timely notice, shall be supplied with books containing their Apocrypha, or Ostervald's Notes. or both, or neither-as they choose. In this situation the Editor is under the absolute necessity of throwing Ostervald's Notes at the end of the book, subject to such additional expense as shall be agreed upon by the Committee hereafter mentioned. xxx INTRODUCTION. Meeting for Sufferings, Philad., 19th Third Month, 1789. Proposals for printing, by subscription, an approved correct edition of the Old and New Testaments, with the Apocrypha and Marginal Notes in a neat Quarto Volume, being now submitted to the consideration of this meeting by the Printer Isaac Collins of Trenton: This undertaking being a matter of very interesting concernment, and such an edition as therein proposed appearing likely to be useful and much wanted; on a deliberate and weighty attention to these considerations, it is the united sense of the meeting, that it be recommended to the Quarterly and Monthly Meetings of Friends to encourage the Work, by appointing Committees to procure Subscriptions agreeably to the tenor of said proposals, and forwarding to this meeting lists of the Subscriptions obtained as early as may be, in order that a suitable appointment may be made for the assistance of the printer in attending to the correctness of the Work. The Clerk is directed to furnish the Printer with a copy of this minute, to be printed and distributed with the proposals. Extract from the Minutes, JOHN DRINKER, Clerk. Extract from the Minutes of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, Philad., May 25, 1789. The General Assembly considering the importance of preserving faithful and correct impressions of the Holy Scriptures; and as Mr. Collins, Printer to the State of New Jersey, proposes to make an impression of the Old and New Testaments, and wishes the countenance and support of all denominations of Christians, On motion, Resolved, That the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, in order to give effectual encouragement to this undertaking, do hereby appoint the Rev. Mir. Joshua Hart, Mr. Judd, Dr. Alexander Mc Whorter, Mr. James F. Armstrong, Dr. George Duffield,1 Mr. Thomas Reid, Dr. Matthew Wilson, Dr. Patrick Allison, Mr. Robert Cooper, Mr. James Finley, Mr. Moses Hoge, Mr. John Blair Smith, Mr. James McKee, Mr. Hezekiah Balch, Mr. Thomas McCaulle and Mr. David Rice, to lay Mr. Collins's proposals before their respective Presbyteries; and to recommend to them, bly order of the General Assembly, that a person or persons be appointed in every congregation, vacant or supplied, to procure subscriptions; and that the Presbyteries transmit by their Commissioners to the next General Assembly the number of Subscribers. This clergyman died in Philadelphia, on 2d February, 1790. He was Minister of the 3d Presbyterian Church in that city. He did not live to witness the publication of this work. INTRODUCTION. Xxxi The General Assembly also confirm the appointment made by the Synod of New York and New Jersey, that Dr. John Witherspoon, Dr. Samuel S. Smith, and Mr. James F. Armstrong be a Committee to confer with any such Committee as may be appointed, whether from any other denomination, or from any other Synod of our denomination, to revise and correct the proofsheets, and, if necessary, to fix upon the most correct edition of the Scriptures to be recommended to the printer from which to make his impression, and that the said Committee be ordered to agree with the printer, that Ostervald's Notes, if not inconsistent with the views of other denominations of Christians engaged in this undertaking, be printed with it, in such a manner as may best promote the publication. The General Assembly, desirous to spread the knowledge of eternal life contained in the Holy Scriptures, earnestly recommend to all the congregations. under their care to encourage this undertaking. JAMES F. ARMSTRONG, Clerk of the General Assembly. Extract from the Journal of the Convention of the Protestant Episcopat Church, held in Philadelphia, August 8, 1789. Proposals for an edition of the Holy Bible, by Ir. Isaac Collins, of Trenton, were laid before this Convention, and satisfactory information was given them as to the proposer's abilities for the execution of the work: Whereupon, Resolved on motion of Mr. Jones, That the members of this Convention will assist Mr. Collins in the procuring of subscriptions. Extract from the Minutes of the Baptist Association, held at Philadelphia, October 6, 1789. This Association taking under consideration the proposals of Mr. Isaac Collins, of Trenton, in New Jersey, to print an edition of the Holy Bible irn quarto after the Oxford edition; and his request to this Association to patronize the work-Being desirous to encourage so laudable a design, do appoint our brethren the Rev. Oliver Hart, Dr. Samuel Jones, Rev. Benjamin Foster. and Rev. Burgiss Allison, to concur with any Committee appointed by any other denomination to revise and correct the proof-sheets, and, if necessary, to fix upon the most correct edition of the Scriptures to be recommended to the Printer, from which to make his impression. And that the same Committee. be ordered to use their influence to prevent the Apocrypha, or any Notes of an~y kind, being printed and included in said edition, as having a dangerous tendency to corrupt the simplicity and truth of the sacred Scriptures, by being thus intimately associated with them; and, particularly, as being incompatible Xxxii INTRODUCTION. with the union of people of different religious sentiments in promoting the work. And, moreover, the Association recommend to all the churches and congregations in their bounds to encourage the undertaking. WILLIAM VAN HORNE, Clerk. The consideration, that no part of the money will be sent out of the country, it is hoped will be an additional inducement to subscribe, and of course promote the more frequent reading of this most valuable book in private families. The Editor therefore wishes to attract the attention, and obtain the countenance of people of ALL denominations in this arduous undertaking; not doubting but that, in the execution of the work, he will be able to give satisfaction, both as to its accuracy and neatness. The CONCORDANCE will be much more correct than the London Copy, the Editor having taken the pains to examine most of the references. *** A specimen of the type and paper may be seen by applying to Joseph Cruikshank, Printer and Bookseller, in Market-street, Philadelphia. Trenton, Twelfth Month, (Dec.) 19, 1789.1 At the meeting of the General Assembly, 22d May, 1790, the subject of aiding Mr. Collins's project was resumed, and every person of the Assembly was recommended to promote and encourage the business of subscription in the Presbytery to which he belonged; and on 24th May, 1791, Presbyteries and members were requested to return all subscriptions, "as the impression is nearly finished."2 Collins's Bible, which the Rev. Dr. Miller incorrectly calls the first Quarto edition printed in the United States,3 was published at Trenton soon after the passage of the above last mentioned resolution. In 1793, Mr. Collins issued at the same place an Octavo Bible, which Mr. Thomas pronounces to have been " a handsome and very correct edition," though he erroneously calls it the first printed at Trenton,4 and seems to have forgotten the edition in Quarto.

In order in some measure to recompense the Reverend Clergy, and all others, whose piety, goodness of heart, and regard for the manufactures of their country, may induce them to help forward so great and useful an undertaking as the one now proposed, all who subscribe for twelve copies, or procure twelve copies to be subscribed for, and will be answerable, and make payment for them, agreeably to this proposal, shall be entitled to, and receive a thirteenth copy, handsomely bound, for their trouble. To CHRISTIANS of every Denomination. AT a time when all descriptions of men are united to promote the political welfare of our country, by the encouragement of Agriculture and all the Arts and Sciences, printing the Bible, that sacred Book which has a nobler object-the supreme and ultimate happiness of man-cannot be thought unimportant, or uninteresting, especially as it tends to promote that Morality without which Industry, Arts and Sciences are vain. The Proposal, therefore, to publish a large quarto Bible, must be pleasing to all, more especially to the christian citizen, to whom nothing need be said as a stimulus for him to promote the good work by subscribing for one or more copies, but his being assured that due care shall be taken to have it correct and well executed-that this shall be the case, no labour or cost, within the subscriber's reach, will be wanting; for it is his ambition, should he proceed with the work, to have it completed in such a manner as shall disgrace neither himself nor his country. It cannot be presumed that any thing need be said to recommend the BIBLE, that ground work of our holy Religion, to any class of citizens whatever — INTRODUCTION. xxxv if there should, nothing new can be given on the subject-we must republish the ideas of those who have gone before us.-Books are addressed to the Judgment or the Imagination-intended to touch the Passions, or please the Fancy.-The HOLY BIBLE addresses the Soul, directs to the paths of peace and happiness here, and brings to view a beautiful prospect of an hereafterin its pages may be viewed, with awful surprise, the great and glorious works of Creation-and with pleasing admiration may be seen the Rise and Fall of Empires-the Revolutions of Kingdoms and States-the various Vicissitudes of Life in all stations-the Depravity of Human Nature, when Man is forsaken by his God-the easy transitions from Innocence to Guilt, from Virtue to Vice —the Policy of Courts, and Simplicity of Cottages-the Rage of Lust-Folly of Pride-Fate of Tyranny, and Madness of Ambition. —Here may be found Patterns for all who wish to practice the Christian and Moral Duties. St. Gregory says, " From the Patriarchs we may take the model of all virtues-Abel teaches us Innocence-Enoch, Purity of Heart-Noah, a firm Perseverance in Righteousness-Abraham, the Perfection of Piety and Faithfulness-Joseph, Chastity-Jacob, Constancy in Labour-Moses, Meekness-and Job, invincible Patience.-Salvation, the most glorious prize that man can obtain, may be perused (sic) with pleasure, and it may with ease be acquired, if Piety is the guide, and Faith the intercessor-the mercy of God is greater than our delinquency, and happiness eternal within our reach, if we suppress the gratification of our passions to seek it: Read, therefore, and be informed-look for, and find." To the PUBLICK at large. AS it is presumed that every denomination of Christians will be pleased with the intention of the proposer, so he rests assured that all will cheerfully contribute in aiding him to carry on and complete this first American Edition of a Royal Quarto Bible.

No copy of the Scriptures was printed in NEW YORK previous to 1790.

The petition was presented in the New York Senate on the 18th of March, 1790, and referred to Messrs. Duane, L'hommedieu and Van Ness, who, on the 6th of April, recommended the passage of the following concurrent resolution: Resolved (if the House of Assembly concurr herein), That the Legislature highly approve the laudable exertions of Messrs. Hodge, Allen and Campbell, booksellers in New York, to promote the Industry and Manufactures of America by printing a correct and neat Edition of Doctor John 1New York Journal & Patriotic Register, August 3d, 1790. Xxxviii INTRODUCTION. Brown's Folio Family Bible; illustrated with short Notes and Annotations, so cautiously expressed as not to give offence to any denomination of Christians; and hope they may meet sufficient encouragement to complete their undertaking agreeably to their Memorial to the Legislature, whereby the people may be supplied with this edition much cheaper than can be imported. The House of Assembly concurred on the same day.' It is curious to remark the caution with which this resolution is drawn up. Justly doubtful of its constitutional power in the premises, the Legislature does not recommend the work, neither does it approve the project, in the words of the Old Congress, as "'a pious and laudable undertaking," but as a praiseworthy effort c" to promote the Industry and Manufactures of America." A singular sort of approbation, to say the least of it, when the character of the work is considered. The publication received the commendation of the Associate Reformed Synod, and a writer of the day, under the pseudonym of Philobiblicus,'" felicitates our Country on the undertaking of three printers of this city, who will not only have the applause of every true friend of Religion in America, but the very warm recommendation of those who know something more than common fame of the Venerable Old Man, Mr. John Brown, Minister of the Gospel of Haddington."2 Mr. Allen retired from the firm shortly after the passage of the above resolution, and his name is, in consequence, omitted in the imprint to the work, as it had already been dropped from the Prospectus. The issue of the above editions was completed in the spring of 1792. They are the first Bibles that were printed in New York. In August of the same year, Hugh Gaine issued a duodecimo Bible, but the types from which it was printed 1 Journals of the New York Senate and Assembly. 2 Swords' New York Magazine, I, 278. INTRODUCTION. xxxix were imported, it is said, from Scotland, already set up in pages; they were sold eventually in 1803 to Mathew Carey of Philadelphia for Seven thousand dollars. These were all the States in which editions of the Bible were published previous to 1809. A School Testament had been issued in New Haven in 1790, but as far as our enquiries have gone, no copy of the Bible was issued in Connecticut before that published by Hudson & Goodwin of Hartford, in the first mentioned year. The advertisements of these various editions, by irresponsible persons, for as yet they appear to have been mere printers' speculations, alarmed Theologians, who at length became aware of the necessity of some steps to ensure the purity and uniformity of the text. Accordingly the subject was brought before the Congregational Ministers of Massachusetts at their Annual Convention in Boston, who on the 27th May, 1790, voted That the Rev'd Doer. Willard, Doer. Howard, Mr. Morse, Mr. Payson and Mr. Thatcher, be a Committee, in the name and behalf of the Congregational Ministers of this Commonwealth, in convention assembled, to prepare, sign and transmit to the Congress of the United States a petition requesting the attention of that Hon'ble Body, to the subject of the several impressions of the Bible now making; representing the importance of accuracy in these impressions; and earnestly praying that they would take such measures, as. the Constitution may permit, that no Edition of the Bible, or its translation be published in America without its being carefully inspected and certified to be free from error. That the same persons be a Committee to apply to the representative Bodies of the other Denominations of Christians in America, and to request, their assistance and support, in accomplishing so important and desirable an, Object. The petition was presented in the Senate of the United States, on the 10th June following, when it was ordered to lie for consideration.l Agreeably to the second of the above votes, the Committee addressed a letter on the 24th June to Bishop Parker of 1 Senate Journal, 107. xl INTRODUCTION. Boston, setting forth, that it was "unquestionably of the highest importance that this acknowledged fountain of truth [the Bible] be preserved pure and uncorrupted, which will not probably be the case if the matter is left wholly to printers. We, therefore as friends and Brethren, united in promoting the same general Cause, and as jointly concerned in preserving the purity of the Holy Scriptures, do, in behalf of the Convention earnestly request the concurrence of the Episcopal clergy throughout the United States, or of their representative Body, in petitioning Congress that they would so far interpose their authority as to prevent inaccurate and spurious Editions of the Bible. It was the wish of the Convention to have written in the first instance to your Rev'd Body and the other representative Bodies of Christians in the several States, requesting that Committees might be appointed by each to confer and unite with us in one petition and thus to concentre the whole Christian Interest in America; But to accomplish this desirable object would have taken a long time, and it was thought, the Business was of immediate importance as proposals for several editions of the Bible are now in circulation. We take this opportunity to express our sincere desire to cultivate a friendly and christian intercourse with the ministers of your denomination, as we are firmly persuaded that such an intercourse between Christians of different Denominations and sentiments would have a happy tendency to harmonize them-to remove unreasonable prejudices-to promote a spirit of love and candour-and thus essentially serve the interest of our holy Religion. It might also have a beneficial influence on the civil affairs of our Country. We wish you, Sir, to communicate the foregoing to the largest representative Body of the Episcopal Church in America as soon as you have an Opportunity. Wishing prosperity to the peaceful Kingdom of our common Lord and Saviour, We are Rev'd Sir, your Brethren in Christ, JOSEPH WILLARD, PHILLIP PAYSON, SIMEON HOWARD, Committee.' Rev'd Dr. Parker, PETER THACHER, Boston. JED'H MORSE.'Letter presented by Joseph Willard, Esq., to the Massachusetts Historical Society, for copy of which we are indebted to George Livermore, Esq. INTRODUCTION. xli We do not find any response to this invitation in the Journal of the Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church. In January, 1791, the Baptist Associations of New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and Vermont renewed the application to Congress "to adopt measures to prevent the publication of any inaccurate editions of the Holy Bible.' An amendment had however been made to the Constitution in 1789, which enacted that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press;" and all these petitions were according ordered to lie on the table, as a compliance with their prayer would have undoubtedly been a violation of the above Article. The movement seems, however to have alarmed Mr. Thomas, who addressed a letter to the Congregational Convention at its next Annual Meeting, the tenor of which may be inferred from the following answer. BOSTON, May 26, 1791. SIR: Your letter addressed to the Rev'd Clergy of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in Convention assembled, was yesterday communicated, and I am directed to return the following answer: That the Convention highly approve of the care which you have exercisedr and of the anxious desires which you express, to have the editions which you are now printing of the Holy Bible perfectly correct. That the Convention are strongly impressed with the importance of having all the neweditions of the Bible which may be made in this country critically examined by persons duly qualified for that work; and accordingly at their last meeting they appointed a Committee to address the Honorable the Legislature of the United States on that interesting subject, and requested, that in their wisdom they would order such measures to be taken as should prevent any accidental or designed errors from being published together with the Oracles of God. Inasmuch as the Convention have requested the Legislature of the Union to interpose their wisdom and their authority for the purposes men1 Journal of House of Representatives, 29, 39. F xlii INTRODUCTION. tioned above, they conceive there would be an impropriety in their appointing a Committee of their own Body to supervise the editions of the Bible which you are now making. They most heartily wish you success in your laudable undertaking; but every kind of approbation of a work of this kind, from this body, must depend upon the accuracy and fidelity with which the work when completed shall appear to have been executed. In the name of the Convention, I am, Sir, Your most obed't, Mr. Isaiah Thomas. JOHN LATHROP.' Meanwhile Mathew Carey of Philadelphia, who had already issued the first quarto Doway Bible in this country, turned his attention to getting up a Quarto edition of King James's version. Having, himself, left us the particulars of the rise and progress of that enterprise: of the difficulties he encountered and overcame, and of the success he at length achieved with his celebrated "Standing" editions, nothing remains for us but to copy his interesting Narrative: In 1801, I published a quarto edition of the Bible (of three thousand copies,) with various additional references, for which I paid a clergyman one thousand dollars. Price ten dollars. I had eighteen various editions to collate in the reading of the proof sheets-four London, three Cambridge, three Oxford, six Edinburg, and two American,-those of Isaac Collins and Isaiah Thomas-and found a most extraordinary number of discrepancies, some of which are incredible. In one Edinburg edition, published by Mark and Charles Kerr, 1795, among the prohibitions of incestuous marriages, one was —" A man may not marry his wife's mother's brother." Feeling deeply solicitous for the success of this undertaking, the failure of which would have almost ruined me, and fearful lest some captious hypercritic should discover any errors, which might have escaped me, notwithstanding all the care I had taken in reading the proof sheets, I prefixed to the volume a deprecatory advertisement of which I annex some extracts. 1 From a copy politely communicated by S. F. Haven, Esq., of Worcester, Mass. INTRODUCTION. xliii "I present this edition of the BIBLE to the public, with a degree of solicitude proportioned to the magnitude of the undertaking. Having embarked therein a large property, and devoted my utmost care and attention to it, from its commencement to its completion, I find it impossible to assume that degree of stoicism necessary to regard with indifference its reception by my fellow-citizens. " That a rigorous and severe spirit of criticism may discover grounds of censure with respect to the paper, printing, engraving, &c., &c., is, I think, highly probable. It is a very easy matter to find fault. A poor sciolist, whose circle of sciences extends no farther than the Grammatical Institute, may discern that there is a want of uniformity in the paper-that the printing is far inferior to Baskerville's —that the engravings are not equal to those by Bartolozzi, or Heath-that there are typographical errors in the workand to show his taste and sagacity, may make various other objections. And when I consider the malignant pleasure many feel, in depreciating the labors, and counteracting the well founded hopes of others, I freely confess, I am disposed to approach the bar of the public with some awe and apprehension. " But from men of this obliquity of heart, I most cheerfully avert my eye. I turn to those of liberal minds-who find more pleasure in bestowing praise, than in dealing forth censure-who are as eager to discover merit, as the envious and malicious are to decry it-who are fully conscious of, and willing to make allowance for, human imperfection-who, knowing the infant state of the arts among us, do not expect that degree of elegance and beauty, for which older and more opulent nations afford such encouragement. When I look forward to a jury of such men, sitting in judgment on this volume, I feel my spirits revive.'" That this work is wholly free from inaccuracy, I cannot pretend. In fact, I will venture to say that no work, equally voluminous, ever was so. But that there are no material errors in it, and that it is as correct as those Bibles which are brought into this country from London, Cambridge, Oxford, and Edinburgh, I fondly believe. To remove any incredulity on this subject, and to induce the reader to forgive the few trivial errors which have escaped the vigilance of the correctors of the press, I annex a small number of errata, out of hundreds which I might have selected from different British editions.

"' As the proof sheets were compared with different editions, a discovery was early made, that numerous and very important variations existed between them. 1" It was found that in many instances, the Oxford and Cambridge editions agreed; that they differed from the Edinburgh and London; in others, that the London and Cambridge agreed, and differed from the Oxford and Edinburgh; in others, again, that the Edinburgh varied from all the rest. This occasioned considerable difficulty. In every case, recourse was had to as many copies as could be procured, and that reading was uniformly preferred, 1 London Folio, 1696. 6 London Folio, 1696. 2 Oxford Quarto, 1784. London Quarto, 1708. 3 Edinburgh Common Quarto, 1728. 8 London Quarto, 1782. 4 Oxford Quarto, 1784. 9 London Folio, 1696. 5 Cambridge Quarto, 1769 and 1770. INTRODUCTION. xlv which was sanctioned by the most numerous and best authorities, or which appeared most congruous with the context. " One or two examples will suffice to illustrate the plan pursued, which has been the result of the most mature deliberation, and which, I hope will meet the approbation of the public. " In all the Oxford, Cambridge, London, Trenton, and Worcester editions, Luke xxIII, 32, reads thus: — "And there were also two other malefactors led with him to be put to death." But five respectable Edinburgh copies read, — " And there were also two others, malefactors, led with him to be put to death." " This reading was readily preferred. It was impossible that the Apostle, in speaking of his beloved Master, should have styled him a malefactor, which is the only construction whereof the first reading is susceptible. Had one of Pilate's soldiers been writing on the subject, he would have expressed himself thus. The Greek xac srspo; &Bo, xaxipyol;, with a comma after 66o, admits the Edinburgh construction as perfectly correct. " It is to be further observed, that the Latin translation of Junius and Tremellius favors this reading:-" Ducebantur autem etiam alii duo, iipque facinorosi, cum eo, interimendi." Edit. in-fol. Hanovie, 1623. " As I have touched on the subject of variations, I beg the reader's attention, while I treat on it a little more at length. "' The variations are of five kinds. 1st. Of Punctuation; 2d. Of Orthography; 3d. Where words are in one edition in Italic, as suppletory, and in Roman in another, as if they were in the original; 4th. Where the difference is merely verbal, without affecting the sense; and 5th. Where there is a variation not only in the words but in the sense. " I. Variations in Punctuation. "The variations of this class are innumerable; generally however, they are unimportant. As far as I have been able to observe, there is no edition whatever of the Bible that has an uniform system of punctuation. The same sentence, occurring in different places, in the same Bible, is by no means always punctuated in the same manner. "' I shall mention but one example of variation of this class. Gen. xxvI, 8, has eight commas in the Edinburgh, six in the Oxford, and only three in the Cambridge and London editions. "II. Oirthographical Variations. "These are not so numerous as the former; but they are by no means inconsiderable. Among those that attracted most attention, in the progress of the work, were-besides, beside; towards, toward; among, amongst; xlvi INTRODUCTION. vallies, valleys; champian, champaign; subtil, subtile; divers, diverse; aught, ought; born, borne; &c., &c. " Diverse and divers are miserably confounded together. They appear to be regarded as synonymous, which is an egregious error. Divers signifies many; diverse, different. "III. Variations with respect to Suppletory Verbs. "Those who have ever paid attention to the perusal of the Bible, know that there are numberless instances wherein words, which are well understood, but not expressed, in the original, are introduced in the English translation; all such words are generally, in the correct editions, in the Italic character, by which the reader is given to understand that they are suppletory; in most instances, the sense is complete without them. Thus: " And they wrote letters by them after this manner." Acts xv, 23.1 Is in the original Greek, " And they wrote by them after this manner." Which conveys the same idea as the former line. "IV. Verbal variations, which do not affect the sense. " The variations of this class are incredibly numerous: and it is to be observed, that even the editions printed at any of the before-mentioned places, do not agree with each other. I subjoin some examples for the reader's inspection:" And Moses put of the blood "And Moses put of the blood upon the tip of their right ear." upon the tip of their right ears." Lev. VIII, 24.2 "' And all that have not fins and "' And all that have not fins nor scales in the sea." Lev. xi, 10.3 scales in the sea." "And ye shall not walk in the "And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nations which I cast manners of the nation which I cast out before you." Lev. xx, 23.' out before you." "V. Variations of meaning as well as words. " These variations are by no means numerous. Some of them, doubtless, have arisen from the carelessness of the printers, who published the early editions, and have been servilely copied by successive editors; but others'Edinburgh Quarto, 1695. 8 Oxford Quarto, 1784. 2 Edinburgh, 1728 and 1790. 4 Edinburgh, 1789, 1793 and 1795. INTRODUCTION. xlvii have most probably been the result of the liberty taken by editors, of innovating upon the original translation, executed in the time of King James. " To illustrate this idea, I shall select two examples. In many editions of the Bible, Lev. i, 6, reads"'And he shall fay the burnt offering.' "In other editions it isI"' And he shall flay the burnt offering.' " It is obvious that the similarity between jf and Jf may have led one editor into error; and that in subsequent editions the error may have been repeated. " But we cannot in the same way account for the.following variation: — " In the Oxford Quarto editions of 1784 and 1795, and the Cambridge of 1769 and 1770, Psalm cvii, 16, reads"' For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the gates of iron asunder.' " Whereas in nearly all the other editions it stands-' For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder.' " In the Cambridge Quartos of 1769 and 1770, the Octavo of 1767, and, the London Quarto of 1772, Leviticus vii, 13, stands"'Besides the cakes, he shall offer for his offering unleavened bread"' " Whereas in fourteen other editions which have been consulted, it is"' Besides the cakes, he shall offer for his offering leavened bread.' " It is highly probable that leavened bread is the correct reading; as the, marginal reference from this verse is to Amos iv, 5, which I here submit to, the reader: "' And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with leaven, and proclaim and publish the free offerings: for this liketh you, O children of Israel.'" Soon after the publication of this edition, the success of which fullyequaled my most sanguine expectations, I ventured on the publication of a standing edition of the Quarto Bible, a great undertaking for a man not long, in business, of whose means a large portion was absorbed in dead stock. It was the first standing edition of the English Quarto Bible ever published.. The Scotch, who had a most extensive sale for their Bibles, were wont, as r have been credibly informed, to set up about twenty or thirty sheets, and, print off twenty thousand copies-then distribute the types, and set up as; many more. Until lately, I believed that mine was the first standing Biblein Christendom. But I have recently learned that of Luther's Bible, in the: German, a Quarto, and perhaps a Folio edition, had been standing in some part of Germany for probably a century. About the time when I had the Quarto Bible set up, I purchased of Hugh xlviii IN TRODUCTION. Gaine of New-York, the School Bible, for, as far as I can recollect, seven thousand dollars.L In reviewing the rise and progress of Bible printing in this country, it is not our intention to trace each edition to its extinction, or to repeat here those which followed the first in rapid succession. Our design is merely to notice in this Introduction what may be called the "pioneer" editions, referring the reader to the text for fuller and more minute information on the progress of this branch of Bibliography. The Greek Testament was printed for the first time in these States in the year 1800. We have collected the titles of sixteen editions in the ancient and three in modern Greek, which have appeared from the American press. An effort was made in 1810 in New Haven to publish an edition of the Bible in Hebrew, but it failed, though the Psalms had already been published at Cambridge, Mass., in that language, in the course of the previous year. The first American edition of the Hebrew Bible did not appear until 1813-14. In 1810 the Scriptures began to be published among us in French; the first edition consisted of a Testament, with the approbation of Bishop Cheverus, of Boston. Editions in Spanish followed in 1819. In a Catalogue of books printed in America, it would not be fair to limit our researches to the United States. We accordingly endeavored to ascertain what progress has been made in the other parts of this Continent, in the department of Biblical literature. As there are not at present any Ministers at Washington, from the Republics of Chile and Peru, our enquiries, as regards these countries, have been necessarily restricted. Ludovicus de Vera, a native of Lima,'New England Magazize, vI, 230. INTRODUCTION. xlix wrote a Commentary on the Books of Kings, which was printed in that city in Folio, in 1635, and Ferdinand de Valverde, also a native of the same place, and of the Order of St. Augustine, wrote a Life of Christ, which was published in Lima, in Quarto, in 1657. Benedict Fernandez, a Spanish Dominican, and Vicar of Mixteca, in New Spain, translated the Epistles and Gospels into the dialect of that province. Didacus de Sta. Maria, another Dominican, and Vicar of the province of Mexico (who died in 1579), was the author of a translation of the Epistles and Gospels into the Mexican tongue, or general language of the country. The Proverbs of Solomon, and other fragments of the Scriptures were translated into the same language by a Franciscan named Louis Rodriguez, and the Epistles and Gospels appointed to be read for the whole year, were rendered into the idiom of the Western Indians by Arnold Bassaccio,, also a Franciscan; but the dates of these versions have not been ascertained.' The entire Bible is said to have been translated into the Brazilian language by an English minister, who accompanied the Dutch to the Reciff, when they acquired it from the Portuguese. This version has never been printed.2 A Quarto edition of Scios's Spanish Bible,, printed in Mexico in 1831-1835, will be found in this List. In 1835 or 1836, Mr. William L. Mackenzie purchased from the Bible Society at New York a sett of stereotype plates, and got new title pages cast for the Old and New Testaments, substituting Toronto and his own name for the Bible Society's imprint. But he did not print an edition from these plates; they passed eventually into the hands of a Mr. Eastwood, who published a Bible from them at Toronto, 1 Bibl;io. Scrip.

There was but one edition of this Eastwood Bible, after which the plates were resold in New York; it was the only Bible ever printed in Canada in the English language.' The issues in Canada East are limited to an edition of the New Testament in French, with Pere du Carriere's Notes.'As we have been unable, notwithstanding all our efforts, to find a copy of this Bible, and as its existence is already almost forgotten, we subjoin extracts from letters received on the subject.

TORONTO, Nov. 29, 1860. Dr. E. B. O'CALLAGIAN, Albany: DEAR SIR —.... I bought the plates from the Bible Society, at New York in 1835 or 1836, I think. I got a new title page for the Old and also for the New Testament, substituting my name and Toronto, for that of the Bible Society and New York. W. L. MACKENZIE. INTRODUCTION. li In the Gulf Provinces, a Catholic Testament has, it is said, been published in Halifax, N. S., but it has not been seen. The Catholic Bibles published in the United States, are, with the exceptions of Archbishop Kenrick's revised edition, and the Bible and Testament edited by the Rev. Mr. McMahon, reprints of those issued in England or Ireland. They all profess, on their title pages, to be translated from the Latin Vulgate, and, with one exception, to be copied from the Doway and Rheims Testaments. At the commencement of the Christian era, the Latin was gradually supplanting the Greek, as a general language, and, as a consequence, soon became that of the Western church, which at the first introduction of Christianity, possessed a very great number of versions of the Scriptures. One of these, known as the Old Italic, acquired a more extensive circulation on account of its clearness and fidelity. In progress of time, however, many alterations came to be made in the text by transcribers. St. Jerome, therefore, was requested by Pope Damasus, to revise it, and accordingly, towards the end of the fourth century first corrected the New Testament by the original Greek, and next translated into Latin, the books of Kings, Job, the Great and Minor Prophets, the Psalms, the books of Solomon, Esdras, Genesis, Josue, Judges, Ruth, Paralipomenon, and Esther from the Hebrew, and the books of Tobias and Judith from the Chaldaic. He did not translate the books of Wisdom, Ecclesiasticus, Maccabees I and II, Baruch, the Epistle of Jeremias, the Deuterocanonical portions of Esther and David. These were adopted from and remain precisely as in the old, or anti-Hieronymian Vulgate. Neither are the Psalms in the present Vulgate, St. Jerome's translation, but his second iin INTR ODUCTION. correction of the old version from the xoLvV of Lucian the martyr.' Thus formed, the Latin Vulgate was declared authentic in the year 1546, by the Council of Trent, which ordered a standard edition to be published. One so intended was issued in 1590, by authority of Sixtus V, and was corrected under Clement VIII, in 1592. Another edition was issued with some slight changes in 1593, and this is the only recognized standard in the Catholic Church,2 which never has made, and most probably never will make a vernacular standard. A translation of the New Testament into English was published at Rheims in 1582, and a translation of the Old Testament into the same language, at Doway, in 1609. The English version of the Latin Vulgate is hence called the Doway Bible. It is not, however, a strict translation of the Latin, as the King James's version is of the Hebrew and Greek, but resorts occasionally to the originals. In the course of the following century, the Doway translation was revised by Bishop Challoner of England, who issued one complete Bible and two Testaments, all differing from each other. These have been revised in turn by others, until now, in the words of Cardinal WISEMAN, C' To call it any longer the Doway or Rheinish version, is an abuse of terms. It has been altered and modified till scarce any verse remains as it was originally published; and so far as 1 St. Jerome made a translation of the Psalms from the Hebrew, but it was not adopted as the common version. He twice corrected the Psalters of the old Vulgate. The first edition is called the Roman Psaltery, the second the Gallican Psaltery. The latter is that printed in the Vulgate, and adopted by the church at Rome. A Genlrcl lttroduction to the Sacred Scriptures. By Rev. Joseph Dixon, D. D. Dublin, 1852. I, 159, 173, 174. 2 Dixon's Introduction, I, 156 et seq. INTRODUCTION. liii simplicity and energy of style are concerned, the changes are in general for the worse. New and often important modifications have been made in every edition, which has followed, till at length many may appear rather new versions than revisions of the old."' The annexed Table will show some of the systematic variations from the Vulgate, now-a-days. We have not room to enumerate all the texts wherein these modern editions vary, not only from the Vulgate, but from each other; the text of the New Testament of Dr. Troy's Bible of 1791, differing from that of Dr. Challoner, it is said, in at least seven or eight hundred places. These discrepancies, as well as the gross typographical errors which constantly recur, have justly excited attention, and there is, we are happy to see, every prospect that better editions will soon supersede those now issued. Dr. KENRICK, Archbishop of Baltimore, has already published an entirely new edition of the Doway Bible, and the Very Rev. Dr. NEWMAN, Superior of the Oratorians in England, has been selected, with the approbation of the Holy See, and at the request of many of the most distinguished among the Hierarchy of England and Ireland, to prepare a new English version of the Latin Vulgate. A work which has engaged whatever leisure we have had during the last three years, is now closed. It only remains for us to acknowledge the valuable assistance we have received, both in its preparation, and whilst it was passing through the press, from JAMES LENOX and JOHN G. SHEA, Esqrs., of New York; GEORGE LIVERMORE, Esq., of Boston; GEORGE BRINLEY, Esq., of Hartford; S. F. HAVEN, Esq., of Worcester, and many other kind friends. The volumes in the collections of these gentlemen are Dublin Review, II, 476, 477. liv INTROD U CTION. severally indicated in the List by the initials of their names, L. denoting those of the first named; J.

We have appended to the whole a full and carefully digested Index, containing the names of authors and of their works; of the place where the volume was published, and that of the first publisher mentioned in the imprint, so that whoever is desirous to find a particular edition of a Bible, Testament, or other work, can easily turn to it, if in this List, if he but know the name of the publisher, or the date or place of publication.

The text is in double columns, with marginal references at the sides, and headings in Indian at the top of the pages, but there is no summary at the beginning of the chapters. Mathew, John and the Acts commence, each,with an ornamental initial letter, but the initial N of the last mentioned Book is inverted, thus, I. In the first three of the Gospels the name of the Evangelist is at the top of the verso, and the chap. and its number, of the recto page of the text; but in John the name of the Evangelist and number, of the chapter are at the head of each page. Each verse forms a distinct paragraph until we come to Luke XV. (verso of K3); between that and the end of the Gospel, more than one, sometimes six verses are crowded occasionally into a paragraph, in order apparently to close that gospel and sig. L at the same time. The same crowding occurs again at the close of John. The 4th and 14th numbers to the chapters throughout this volume are generally, though printed IIII, not invariably, XIIII. On comparing this Translation with the edition of 1680, we find a number of omissions in the text. These, with other errors, are noted in the following table of ERRATA.

A writer in 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 34, states that 1 Cor. 15:31, as here translated, countenances swearing by a creature. On comparing the text with Hosea 4:2, and, Mat. 5:34, 36, it is observed that the word "protest" in that passage, is rendered into Indian by the same verb as " swear," in the last mentioned texts. In the running titles of the Books, Mark is printed " Marke" on the verso of E2, E3 and E4; John is printed " Iohn" above chapters 3, 19 and 20; the recto of L13 is II Corinthians, instead of Chap. 1; and on the 3d page of Rev. the word is "Revelations." Mr. ELIOT, pastor of Roxbury, Mass., commenced at the age of forty-two, the study of the Natick Indian dialect, in which this work is printed. In 1649, having made some proficiency, he expressed a desire to translate a portion of the Scriptures into that language* for the use of the Indians to whom he acted as a Missionary, and with the aid of an Indian, completed the translation of the entire Bible, including the Old and New Testament, in 1658, after a labor of eight years. This fact having been communicated to the Corporation established in London for the propagation of the Gospel among the Indians of New England,t that body expressed themselves, in a letter dated 7th May, 1659, on the subject of printing the work, in the following terms: "As to the printing of the Bible in the Indian language; mensioned in Mr. Endicott's * 3 Mass.

Writing in April, 1660, the Corporation add: "We haue out of our desire to further a worke of soe great consernment hauing hopes that somthinge wilbee collected in particulare with Relation to the printing of the ould Testament, agreed with an able Printer for three years."t Marmaduke Johnson accordingly arrived in this country to superintend the printing, and possibly his arrival subsequent to the commencement of the work by Green, may account for the Gospel of John beginning with Aa; for the crowding observed in the latter part of Luke, and for the arrangement of the running title of John being different from that of the preceding part of the work. Be this as it may, this translation of the New Testament was, in the words of Gookin, " finished, printed and set forth" on the 5th September, 1661. t The edition was, at first, to consist of 1000, but the Corporation recommended that it should be 1500 copies. Twenty of these were ordered to be sent to England; whereof one was to be presented " well bound vp," to the King; one to the Earl of Clarendon, then lord Chancellor, and one to each of the Vice Chancellors of the Universities, " whoe have greatly Incurraged the worke; "~ and " it is our desires," add the Commissioners, "' that you will take care for the printing of the preface before the New Testament with the title according to the coppies, as alsoe to send to Mr. ashurst and Mr. huchenson about twenty coppies of the New Testament to bee disposed of according to our directions and order.

At page 255 same vol., he states that the Psalms in Indian Metre, accompanied the New Testament; but there is no evidence in support of that statement, in the Minutes of the Commissioners; and there is no allusion to the Psalms in the order to Mr. Usher, directing the transmission of copies of the Testament to England. ~ Hazard, 1I., 459. -i66i.] AMERICAN BIBLES. 5 natural born Subjefcs, by the Favour and Grant of Your Royal Father and Grandfather of Famous Memory, put themfelves upon this great and hazardous Undertaking, of Planting themfelves at their own Charge in thefe remote ends of the Earth, that without offence or provocation to our dear Brethren and Countrymen, we might enjoy that liberty to Worfhip God, which our own Confcience informed us, was not onely our Right, but Duty: As alfo that we might (if it fo pleafed God) be inftrumental to fpread the light of the Gofpel, the knowledg of the Son of God our Saviour, to the poor barbarous.

With the exceptions of the first title page and Dedication, and the absence of the " Star " on the title to the New Testament, this volume is the same as No. 1 of this year. The errors already noted in the Old and New Testaments, are continued, but those in the running titles to Luke XXI and XXIV, having been discovered whilst the work was passing through the press, are here corrected. In working off the form, however, after making these corrections, the last letter of the catchword, "' waabeh," at Luke XXI, was shoved out into the margin and the word is printed'" waabe h "' on recto of L2 in this copy. Hence the curious bibliographer will understand that, irrespective of the difference in the title pages, there are two varieties of Eliot's Indian Testament of 1661: One, with the running titles to Luke XXI and XXIV incorrect, and the catchword on L2 correct; the other, vice versa. In the copies before us, the former variety has the " Star" on the title page. In connection with this subject, it is proper to bear in mind that there are copies of this Bible which vary from our present description in some particulars. In the volumes before us, the New Testament with the " Star " on the title page, accompanies the Old Testament with the Indian Title only, and no Dedication (supra No. 1, 1663); whilst there is no " Star " on the title page to the New Testament of the copy having the first title in English, and the Dedication, or (as it may be designated,) the " Royal " copy of the Eliot Bible. On the other hand, in the " Royal" copy belonging to JOHN ALLAN, Esq., of New York, the Bible with an English Title and Dedication, is accompanied by the New Testament with the " Star " title page. Again, the copy in the Library of the Brown University, R. I., differs from all these. It has the general title in English, (No. 2, 1663.) then the Dedication, and following that, the Indian title page (No. 1, 1663). What other varieties the binder has manufactured we know not. 2 10 AMERICAN BIBLES. [i663It has been already stated that Mr. ELIOT completed the immense labor of translating this Bible in 1658, but the printing of the Old Testament was not commenced until 1660. In September of that year, a sheet of Genesis was transmitted to England. " The printers doubt not but to print a sheet every weeke, and compute the whole to amount to a hundred and fifty sheets."* In September, 1661, the five books of Moses were printed;t in September, 1662, the work was about half done,$ and completed in September, 1663.~ Three years were thus occupied in the publication of the Old Testament. The Corporation had already ordered in April, 1663, "that the Psalmes of David, in meter, shalbee printed in the Indian language." On the 18th, Sept., following, twenty copies of the Bible were ordered to be sent to England, "and as many of the Psalmes, if printed of before the shippes departure from hence." The edition, including the Psalm books, consisted of upwards of 1000 copies.ll Three hundred and sixty-eight reams of paper were used in printing the Bible; the expence ranged from sixty to seventy shillings sterling a sheet. The cost of printing the Psalms was forty shillings a sheet, or ~26, in the whole; of printing the " Epistle dedicatory' to the Bible, ~1, and of c" binding and clasping," two shillings and sixpence per Copy.1 JOHN RATLIFE, the book-binder, objected to this low price, and avowed in a petition to the Commissioners, " that under 3s. 4d. or 3s. 6d. per book," he could not bind them and live comfortably, "' one Bible being as much as he could compleat in one day "' and find the materials.** When completed, twenty copies were ordered to be sent to the Corporation in England, with the following " Epistle Dedicatory:" To the High and Mighty PRINCE, CHARLES the SECOND, by the Grace of God, King of Great Britain, France and Ireland, Defender of the Faith, &c.

Though indeed, the prefent Poverty of thefe Plantations could not have Accomplifhed this Work, had not the forementioned Bounty of England lent Relief; Nor could that have Continued to ftand us in ftead, without the Influence of Your Royal Favour and Authority, whereby the Corporation there, For Propagating the Gofpel among there Natives, hath been Eftablifhed and Encouraged (whofe Labour of Love, Care, and Faithfulnefs in that Truft, muft ever be remembred with Honour.)

The Southern Colonies of the Spani/h Nation have fent home from this American Continent, much Gold and Silver, as the Fruit and End of their Difcoveries and Tranfplantations: That (we confers) is a fcarce Commodity in this Colder Climate. But (futable to the Ends of our Undertaking) we Prefent this, and other Concomitant Fruits of our poor Endeavours to Plant and Propagate the Gofpel here; which, upon a true account, is as much better than Gold, as the Souls of men are more worth then the whole World. This is a Nobler Fruit (and indeed in the Counfels of All-difpofing Providence, was an higher intended End) of Columbus his Adventure. And though by his Brother's being hindred from a feafonable Application, your Famous Predeceffour and Anceftor, King Henry the Seventh, miffed of being fole Owner of that firft Difcovery, and of the Riches thereof; yet, if the Honour of firft Difcovering the True and Saving Knowledge of the Gofpel unto the poor Americans, and of Erefting the Kingdome of 7 E S V S C HR IS T among them, be Referved for, and do' Redound unto your Majefty, and the Englifh Nation, After-ages will not reckon this Inferiour to the other.

The proposition to print this second edition was submitted by Mr. ELIOT to the Commissioners of the New England Colonies on the 20th March, 1678-9; but after some debate, it was judged most expedient to refer the determination of the matter to the next meeting.* The printing was commenced, we presume, the following year, and, as in the instance of the first edition, with the New Testament; for we find Mr. Eliot informing Mr. Boyle, Nov. 4, 1680, that they were on the 19th chap. of the Acts, and he intended, when they had " impressed the New Testament," to proceed with * Hazard's State Papers, II, 539, 540. -I685] AMERICAN BIBLES. 17 the " preparing and impressing the Old." * The progress of the work seems, however, to have been slow. Writing in March 1681 Mr. Eliot says: We have but one man (viz. the Indian printer) that is able to compose the sheets, and correct the press, with understanding. One tenth part or near of the Bible work is done. We are in Leviticus. On the 22d April, 1684, he again writes: We have but few hands, one Englishman and a boy and one Indian. t The work was completed in October of the following year. The edition was 2000. Prince's copy of this Bible, in the New England Library, has on the second leaf the following Dedication, to which public attention has already been directed by GEo.

Though the purpose for which this Translation was originally undertaken has failed, and the immediate expectations of its patrons have been disappointed, the labors of the pious Missionary have answered an important end which he, perhaps, never anticipated. In connection with his Grammar, this rare volume affords invaluable aid in the study of Indian philology; and furnishes the means of acquiring an insight into the structure and character of the Algonquin language, which otherwise would have been forever lost to the learned.

In Two VOLUMES. In 1710, the Rev. Cotton Mather, author of the above Work, issued Proposals for its publication. These proposals are to be found, Mr. LIVERMORE informs me, at the end of one of Mr. Mather's Tracts, entitled, Bonifacius, or, Essays to do Good. Boston, 1710. Not meeting, then, with the desired encouragement, the author turned his attention again to the subject in 1713, as appears by his Diary, from which S. F. HAVEN, Esq. of New Haven, politely furnishes the following extract: "December. It seems now high time for me to come into action & do what my hand finds to do that ye Biblia Americana may be brought forth into the World. Let me therefore publish a sheet entitled.J New Offer to ye LTovers of Religion 4 Learning, therein giving an account of the work, & so an opportunity for subscriptions towards ye encouragement of it; and not only spread Copies of that Offer through this country but also send them to Europe." Proposals were issued a third time, after Mr. Mather's death, in 1728, but no printer could be found to hazard the undertaking; and the manuscript, as it came from the author's pen, is now in the Library of the Massachusetts Historical Society, in Six Volumes Folio.

The covers of the Volume are wood boards, each three-eighths of an inch thick, covered with calf; each board being further protected by five brass rivets and two clasps. The edition consisted of about 1000 copies, and the price of the Book was two dollars and a half. The types with which this Volume was printed, were imported from Germany. Twelve copies of the Volume were in return sent to Europe. Mr. Lenox saw, in 1856, what may have been one of those copies, in the City Library of Frankfort on the Main. It was as fresh and in as good order as if it had just left the hands of the binder, and was supposed to have been a present from Saur to Hainrich E-hrenfried Luther, from whom he had received or purchased the type. Mr. Luther presented it to the above library, as appears from an inscription pasted on the inside of the cover, and which is in these words: Sanctum Hunc Codicem in India Occidentali nullo plane Exemplo et Nec Anglico, nec Batavo, nec alio quovis idiomate antehac Nuper vero Germanico Primum Et quidem Typis Officinve sure favente numine Excusum Splendide Hujus Civitatis Bibliothecme Dono Dat H.

This is the first American edition of the Douay and Rheims versions of the Scriptures, and is supposed to be the first quarto Bible, published in English in the United States. It was originally advertised to be issued in 48 weekly numbers, the first of which appeared Dec. 19, 1789. About twenty sheets were issued in that form, when the plan -seems to have been abandoned and the work was finally published on the 1st of December, 1790. The types for the work.were cast in the foundry of John Baine, Philadelphia. The text is reprinted from Challoner's 2d edition of the Bible, 1763-4, 5 Vols. 12. The annotations are at the foot of the pages. 2. THE CHRISTIAN'S NEW AND COMPLETE FAMILY BIBLE. Philadelphia: Published by William Woodhouse. 1790. This edition has not been seen. It was published in numbers, and the above title is extracted from the advertisements in the Penn. Packet, Nov. 15, 1788, and Jan. 3, 1789, when Nos. 1 and 10 appeared (E..A.), and Penn. Gaz., May 26, 1790, which last is as follows: " This day is published, and to be sold by all the booksellers, The Christian's New and Complete Family Bible, No. 77. The Old and New Testaments being now entirely printed off, subscribers are requested to send for their numbers as quick as possible. The Apocrypha will soon be ready for delivery. Agreeable to the proposals the work was to be comprised in 75 numbers; however, it will considerably exceed that quantity; but all above No. 75 shall be delivered gratis to subscribers, the number of whom is nearly 1000." (Copied by Mr. McAllister.) Paul Wright, D. D., Vicar of Oakley, was the editor of a work bearing a somewhat similar title to this. 3. HOLY BIBLE: Philadelphia: I Printed by W.

Every sheet of the text, before its commitment to the press, was carefully examined by the clergymen of Worcester [the Rev. Aaron Bancroft, D. D., and the Rev. Samuel Austin, D. D.], and by other capable persons, and compared with not less than eight different copies. Each book commences with an ornamental Initial letter, and each of the chapters is preceded by a brief abstract of its contents. Other copies of the work have been issued in one volume, and with two title pages only, one to the Old and the other to the New Testament, and without any directions to the binder or list of plates. 42.

It has, also, marginal notes and references, " all examined and compared with the Text by the Minister of Holden,"-the Rev. Joseph Avery-and running head-lines of contents at the head of the columns. None of these are in the folio edition. On the other hand, this Quarto wants the woodcuts at the head of each of the divisions of the Volume, and has ornamental Initial letters at the beginning of these divisions only, instead of each book. According to Isaiah Thomas's Catalogue of Books for Sale at the Worcester Bookstore, 1801, in the possession of Mr. BRINLEY, this Bible was issued in three different styles, viz: with 48 copper plates and Concordance; without plates or Concordance; and with Concordance.

The words, " Together with the Apocrypha," follow " The Old Testament" on the title page to the latter, and there is no Imprint at the "End of the Prophets." The New Testament seems to have been originally a separate book, and many variations or modifications are observable in the typographical composition.

The first 80 pp. are from the edition of November 7th, 1803; the page is 9- by 6 1 inches, including the catchword but exclusive of the head lines and marginal references, and the columns are divided by double or parallel rules; the next sig., pp. 81-*92, is recomposed; the page is 9 in. in length by 64 in width, and the matter which is contained in a little more than 114 pp. of the ed. of Nov. 7, is made to cover 12 pp., the spacing at the heads of the chapters being in this, wider than in the part preceding it. From p. 81 (bis) to 176, agrees exactly with the Carey ed. of 1802; the page is 93 X 678 in.; the columns are separated by single rules, and the numerals marking the pages and verses, which are in small pica type in the previous part, are in this changed to type the face of which is long primer on a small pica body. From p. 177-216, the numerals are again small pica, though the size of the page and the single rule between the columns are continued. From p. 217 to the end of sig. 2F, the text is recomposed; the double or parallel rule is reintroduced; the length of the page varies from 9 to 7~ in.; its width is 61 in., and the heads of the chapters are " blanked out," so that the matter, which in the ed. of the 7th Nov., fills eight pages, is here spread over ten. The small pica numerals continue from p. 217 as far as p. 297, inc.; from p. 297-308, the smaller numerals are again used, but from 309 to the end of Malachi, they are in small pica. From p. 225 to the end of Mal., the p. is 94 by 65 in., and the columns are divided by the single rule. 3.

The catchword on recto of C3, is " 3" instead of " 7 "; the heading to recto of D7, reads: How we mints love our enemies; Acts 8: 9, sorcery is printed, " sorcercy "; sig. H2 is marked. 2 H; the catchword to recto of H4, is "James," instead of "Jews"; II Cor., 7: 8, reads: " for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you sorry, though it were but for a reason," instead of "season"; in v. 11 of the same chapter, the words, "yea, what fear," are omitted; Philippians 4: 15 reads: ~" in the begginning," and in the heading to the last column on the same page, the word " bounty " is left out. Besides these errors, a number of catchwords are omitted. On a close examination of the volume, it appears to have been set up from Hugh Gaine's Testament (supra, p. 36; No. 1, 1790), with which it agrees, with the exception of the title page and II Cor., 7: 11, and a few minor errors. 3.

Strange to tell, in the interval of two years, passing the same store, and chancing to look in, he then saw the remainder actually crying off for a few pence, and he bought it!

The Text is in paragraphs, without notes, but with an introduction to each book concluding with a pious aspiration. The version of the New Testament by Le Maistre de Sacy and others, appeared at Mons in 1667, but was condemned as containing the doctrines of the Jansenists. A corrected edition accordingly appeared the same year, and subsequent editions omitting or correcting the censured portions were well received. Le Maistre de Sacy, in 167295, published a version of the whole Bible, which was modified subsequently by Calmet and others. His edition of the New Testament published at Paris in 1759, with approbation, has been taken as a standard and was probably followed in this, -I8II.] AMERICAN BIBLES. 103 although we can not say so positively. Having been compared by Bishop CHEVERUS with the Vulgate and approved by him,'tis to be presumed that it is after the standard edition.-See further, Dictionnaire de Bibliographie Catholique, Ch.

But as he had in some of his reflections " studiously flattered his friends of PortRoyal" (the Jansenists) and been partially severe in others on the Dignitaries of the Church, and in many of his passages had given such a turn to the thought and expression of the Fathers, as was more calculated to support an enthusiastic system of Theology than to promote the interest of piety, an alteration was therefore judged expedient.

The Circular announcing the proposed publication of this Bible is dated " New York, First Month, 1815." To stereotype this work the publishers had employed John Watts, who introduced the art into the United States about the year 1813, after having received complete instruction in the business from his brother, Richard Watts, and from Andrew Wilson, of London. It is printed in small pica, and was issued on superfine, and on coarse paper, in the following styles: 1. The Old and New Testaments, alone; 2. The same, with Apocrypha; 3. With Apocrypha and Concordance; 4. With Concordance; 5. With Ostervald's Notes; 6. With Ostervald's Notes and Concordance; 7. With Ostervald's Notes, Apocrypha and Concordance. Any of the superfine copies could be furnished, with 12 maps and plates, for one dollar and fifty cents extra; and those on coarse paper, 17 130 AMERICAN BIBLES.

New Ipswich, N. H.: Printed and published by Simeon Ide. Date unknown. 12. Not seen. Mr. Ide, having purchased a small Ramage press and a font of bourgeois type which had already been pretty well worn on an edition of Shakespeare, placed them in the blacksmith's shop on his father's farm, and undertook to print an edition of the New Testament in duodecimo form. By the assistance of a sister, about twelve years old, in setting type, it was accomplished in about six months. That this, his first publication, might be as free from errors as possible, he engaged the Rev. Dr. Payson, of Rindge, to read the proof sheets. As there was only type enough to set twelve pages at a time, he walked to his house, a distance of four miles, twice a week, to read proofs with him; and to give greater currency to the edition, he prevailed on Dr. Payson to allow him to insert on the title page, " Revised and corrected by Rev. S. Payson, D. D." Some of the Doctor's friends having got the impression that he had been making a new Translation of the Testament, it gave him no little uneasiness. To relieve him of this, Mr. Ide printed the words " First New Ipswich edition," and pasted the slip over the obnoxious line. An edition of 5000 was worked off, and 1000 copies, in full binding, were sold to the New Hampshire Bible Society, for $280, which was less than cost, in order to raise money to purchase paper. The others were retailed at fifty cents a copy. Kidder and Gould's History of New Ipswich. Boston, 1852, p. 237. 1817. 1.

Though at first view this edition would seem to be a Carey's 12mo of 1808, with only new Title pages, yet the text has evidently been recomposed. Like the editions of 1812, 1814 and 1817, there are no head lines to the columns. In many places the short s is used where the long f is found in the other edition; and there are no signature figures to the edition of 1808. Again, the verso of the page bearing the signature mark has at foot figures which are wanting in the ed. of 1808; thus, the verso of sigs. B to G is marked at foot 78-6, the last mentioned sig. having in addition G2 on the verso; the verso of H has H2, and 78-6 is on foot of the following p.; the verso of I is marked 78-4; of K, 78-1; of L, 78-3; of M, 78-2; of N, 78-5; of 0, 02, 78-1; of P, p2 (78-2); of Q, 78-5; of R (78-1); of X, 78-2; of Y (87-5); of Z, 78-4; of Aa (78-3); of Bb (78-6); of Cc (78-2); at foot of the 1st p of Mat. is 78-5; on verso of Ee (78-1); of Ff 78-3; of Gg (78-4); of Ilh (78-3); of Ii (78-1); Kk (78-4), and of L1, 78-6.

About 100,000 of them contained the Apocrypha, and 14,750 had Brown's Concordance. Only 500 copies were printed in 1822, and 4,475 for the first half of 1848; this will show the ratio of increase from the beginning. The stereotype plates were made by LI. & E. P., at Cooperstown.

G. S.) It was published originally in 120 weekly numbers of 16 pages each, at twenty-five cents a number. The publication was commenced in 1823, (as I infer from the advertisement accompanying No. 20, which appeared at the close of that year) and was completed in 1825. The date on the back of the volume is: Philadelphia, 1826. The price of the work, bound, was $35, and the edition consisted of One thousand copies. It was not stereotyped. Other copies are without plates, or date on back. Plate No. 20 is found in many Bibles-as to design. 2.

ALEXANDER CAMPBELL, the editor and publisher of this Volume was originally a Presbyterian, but withdrew from that Church in 1812, and became a Baptist. He was finally excluded from the fellowship of the Baptist Churches, on account of his peculiar views on Baptismal Regeneration, and founded a religious sect called "Disciples of Christ "-popularly known as Campbellites.

There is a double set of sigs. in figures, but these run very irregularly. The irregularity in the paging and signatures of the Old Testament induces us to conclude that that portion of this Bible is made up of odd signatures of different editions. The type of the inserted leaves is greatly spread, or spaced very open. Though this professes to be a Translation from the Latin Vulgate, and therefore a Catholic Bible, it is only just to state that it does not contain the Ist and 2d Books of Maccabees, which accompany all Catholic Bibles, having been inserted in the List of Sacred Books by the Council of Trent. 1.

This translation is from the pen of the late Judge BENSON, whose principal object was to give the proper translation of the words charity and bishop, in accordance witlh the Dutch Version. This he does by substituting love for charity, and overseer for bishop wherever they occur. The pagination and signatures probably agreed with those of some copy of the Testament in general use, as the Judge did not extend his translation any further. J.

Mr. Cummiskey informs me that he sold the plates of his 12mo Testament (See supra, p. 199), to Mr. Lucas, in 1830 or 1831. I have not been able to find a copy of the Cummiskey 12mo, and am therefore unable to say how far that volume agrees with this; but on comparing it with the Devereux Testament of 1829 (supra, p. 198). the text of both appears to be identical; even the error in James, 5:17, is common to one and the other. The preliminary matter of the Devereux Testament, included on pp. ii-xi, is, in the Lucas edition, transferred to the end of the volume, where the " Table of Controversies " is entitled " Table of References." In consequence of this transfer, pp. iii-xii, are not enumerated in the Lucas Testament before the text, which begins immediately after the Title leaf and abruptly with p. 13. If, as is represented, this volume is printed from the plates of Cummiskey's 12mo Testament, then it and the Devereux Testament are from duplicate plates manufactured by James Conner, N. Y. 5.

Mr. Dickinson has reformed the titles of the several books of the New Testament, substituting for those generally received such as the following: History by Matthew; Luke's History of Apostolic and Ecclesiastical Transactions; John's General Address to Christians; John's Letter to an Eminent Christian Woman; John's Letters, Visions, and Prophecies. Whether there is not a ridiculous affectation in all this, let our readers judge. This work is announced on the title-page as a professed translation. By this we are, it is presumed, to understand, that it is not an actual translation, but a concoction of materials in the vernacular tongue, designed to pass as a new translation. And we are very willing to believe it a professed translation; for a pretty thorough examination has failed to shew us the faintest traces of a critic's hand. Where ill-chosen and ill-arranged phraseology has not made the work utterly unintelligible, the sense is generally the same with that of the received version, with here and there a modification borrowed from Campbell or Macknight...... Apart fromn its literary execution, this professed translation has no distinctive character: and, as the author (in his preface) places his chief reliance on the rhetorical embellishments with which he has adorned the sacred text, we are constrained to award a verdict of unqualified condemnation. The notes which form the Appendix to this volume, are principally selected from English and American writers. They are excerpted indifferently from writers of widely varying creeds...... He has introduced many annotations from works not professedly critical. He has elevated some men to the rank of commentators on Scripture, who surely never anticipated that honour. He gives us on the Logos a note from Jefferson, and several of the largest notes are credited to J. Q. Adams, Chancellor Kent and Wirt. The Free Enquirer, an infidel paper published at New York, furnishes several short remarks. And there are some original notes, tinged with the translator's usual grandiloquence." —Am. Monthly Review for March, 1833, iii, 221, 222, 223. A correspondent, who has examined this volume, declares it to be " one of the most absurd attempts to improve the authorized version that has ever been attempted." 29 226 AMERICAN BIBLES. [I833The following are some of the renderings: Luke 1: 31. And behold, you shall be in a state of gestation. 38. Behold the handmaid of the Lord; may it be to me in conformity to thy disclosure. 41. When Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the embryo was joyfully agitated.... and Elizabeth was pervaded by the Holy Spirit. 42. Blessed are you among women! and blessed is your incipient offspring I 44. When your salutation sounded in my ears, the embryo was enlivened with joy. John 3: 3. Except a man be reproduced, he cannot realize the reign of God. 4. Nicodemus says to him, How can a man be produced when he is mature? Can he again pass into a state of embryo, and be produced? &c. Acts 1:18. And (Judas) falling prostrate, a violent, internal spasm ensued, and all his viscera were emitted. 26: 24. Festus declared with a loud voice: Paul you are insane!

It was originally published in numbers, the first in 1848. It is embellished with nearly 150 fine woodcuts, to some of which Mr. Hewett's name is appended, who is stated to be " one of the best wood engravers that this country has produced." The engravings are copied from original masterpieces of the best artists. There are, in addition, marginal arabesque ornaments adapted to each page and also several hundred ornamental initial letters, one of which embellishes the head of each chapter. Mr. Shea says, this Testament was edited by the Rev. James McMahon of New York, who revised it by the Vulgate, and not only made it conform to the division of the verses in the Clementine edition, but in translating availed himself of the Greek, and in the Epistles of St. Paul, of the light which Hebrew throws on the Hebraisms of that Apostle. The edition was purchased in 1854 by John Murphy & Co., Baltimore, by whom the work has since been issued, and the copy before us, though retaining the imprint of Hewett & Spooner, has " Baltimore, Murphy & Co.," on the back of the cover. 3.

This is called, A New Edition of Haydock's Catholic Bible, to distinguish it from that published by Mr. Cummiskey in 1824. It was issued in 38 parts. The Rev. J. R. Bayley, now Bishop of Newark, N. J., edited a few sheets; the Rev. J. McMahon, the remainder. The latter gentleman made, says Mr. Shea, many corrections in the text and notes. Many errors in the Old Testament have been overlooked, notwithstanding, and a curious mistake is retained in the original note on Genesis, 1: 16, where light is said to "be nearly 3000 years in coming to us from the remotest star in our stratum;" 41 322 AMERICAN BIBLES. [I852a palpable misprint, for " system " says Archd. Cotton, which Mr. Haydock had himself detected and removed. The directions to the Binder, at the end of this volume, order " The Preface to the American edition to be inserted in the beginning, between pages 8 and 9." But there is no such preface in the copy before us, nor in any other edition of this Bible that we have seen. 2. HOLY BIBLE, translated from the Latin Vulgate: With Annotations by Dr. Challoner, &c.

Dr. Allioli the editor of the original edition of this work, is a canon of the Cathedral of Ratisbon. The American edition was published in two forms; one as above; another injumbers with an engraved title page and 16 plates. It was revised, and Dr. Allioli's notes abridged, by the Rev. Gabriel Rumpeler, one of the Redemptorist Fathers, of New York, who published an edition or two of it and then passed the plates to the -1I852.] AMERICAN BIBLES. 323 Messrs. Sadlier who sold about 2000 copies. The plates have since been sold to a house in Germany, whence this market is supplied, as there is no Catholic Bible published at present in German in the United States. The following is a Translation of the Preface prefixed, by Father Rumpeler, to the New Testament: The reading of the Bible has become, among the Catholic population of the United States of America, a general practice, by what authority we shall not stop to inquire. Suffice it, the universal practice hath created a habit which we do not praise, neither will we absolutely condemn. The actual want, universally perceptible, of a German Catholic Bible approved by the Holy See, up to this time a desideratum in this country, hath induced us rather to transplant into American soil this truly literal Translation of the Holy Scriptures by Dr. FRANZ ALLIOLI, which has been received with universal, undivided approbation, is widely dispersed and obtains at present in Germany an almost exclusive circulation, in order thereby to provide against the erroneous understanding of the word of God, often occasioned by the use of Protestant, as well as numerous corrupt Catholic, Bibles, especially that of Van Ess. To facilitate the purchase of this Book, the editor hath thought proper to abridge the often recurring, less necessary, and more abstruse notes in the original work which have been approved by several Bishops; yet so, that the sense thereof has now suffered a change in but very few instances which have been seen and approved by our Most Reverend Bishop Dr. John Hughes. The editor thus hopes to have supplied a pressing want, and to have merited the gratitude, of the public. The Editor, P. G. R. 4.

The object of the author of this edition has been (he says) to present the rising generation with the Holy Scriptures in an idiom with which they are familiar. Accordingly, the Gospel of St. Matthew (the only one contained in the volume) is entitled, " The Good News of Salvation according to Matthew;" The Acts of the Apostles-" The Doings of the Commissioners; " The Epistles-" The Letter of Paul (a Commissioner), to the Romans," or Corinthians &c. The word, Lord, is turned into " Sovereign; " the proper name of the Saviour is " The Anointed," and the Disciples are called, " Pupils." The following are specimens of the text: John the Baptist's "food was small animals and vegitable honey." Mat. 3: 4. Happy are they who hunger and thirst for correctness. Ibid 5: 6.

The plates were afterwards.imported into this country and the work is issued in New York in 36 numbers. In regard to the Notes, I am inclined to think (says Archd.Cotton) from an inspection of the first two chapters of Genesis only, that the " abridgment " has been made carelessly, and in a manner more calculated to obscure the sense than illustrate it. For instance, in a note on Genesis, 1:19, Haydock spoke of " the remotest star in our stratum " (a misprint for " system") "beyond which are others immensely distant," 42 330 AMERICAN BIBLES. [I853&c. Dr. Husenbeth leaves out the words, " in our stratum," and by doing so contrives to give the sentence rather an ambiguous turn, " the remotest star, beyond which are others " &c. Again, in a note on Genesis, 2: 2, Haydock speaking of the seventh day observed, " This day was commanded, Ex. xx, 8. to be kept holy by the Jews, as it had probably been from the beginning. Philo says, it is the festival of the Universe, and Josephus asserts, there is no town which does not acknowledge the religion of the sabbath. But this point is controverted " &c. Dr. Husenbeth omits the whole of the passage from'" Philo " to " Sabbath "' inclusive yet goes on, " But this point is controverted " &c. Apart from the Notes the text abounds with errors which we have no room to indicate. 3.

In style he has endeavored to adhere to that of the ordinary English Version, whilst he has taken so much care to avoid its faults, that this may be called a new Version especially as regards the Prophets, Psalms and Job. No individual has been questioned as to the meaning of any word, and Bagster's Bible is the only English book that has been consulted in the progress of the translation, which occupied occasionally more than fifteen years. 6.

Archbishop Kenrick's revision of the Douay Version is an immense labor, and one which has as yet been hardly appreciated according to its merits. It is a work on which has been bestowed a vast amount of rare and valuable learning, every text, every word seems to have been the object of diligent study, and of careful comparison with the original text.

The division into verses however, has been followed " at the urgent request of the publishers, though contrary to the preference of the editor." The doxology is retained, but in the note is said "to be rejected by many editors as an interpolation." Verses 13, 14, of Matthew, chap. 23; are transposed.

TEAL the publisher, came to America about the year 1820, as book agent for an English house, aid afterwards went into business on his own account, when he undertook to republish, by subscription, an English Family Bible, but whose edition is not stated. Calling on the Rev. JONATHAN HOMER, D. D., of Newtown, Mass., that clergyman learned that no person had been engaged to see to the correctness of the work, and thereupon undertook that responsibility. (Melvin Lord.) He accordingly revised the Practical Observations; condensed many of the Notes of the original edition, those especially from the commencement of the Prophets being new; almost wholly rewrote the Arguments prefixed to the Books from the beginning of Isaiah, and corrected the dates of writing those of the New Testament. (Preface.) The work was printed or set up in the establishment of Richardson & Lord, Boston, and on account of the conductor of the Office, J. H. A. Frost. (Mr. Lord.) Dr. Homer was a graduate of Harvard College; possessed a collection of rare Bibles and was quite a critic. He died 11th August, 1843, having been fifty years in the ministry. -1823.] AMERICAN BIBLES. 385 2. A Commentary on THE BOOK OF PSLAMS.

A Manuscript Translation of the Scriptures into the English Language, made by some former Member of Princeton College, N. J. n. d. fol. This title is taken from the Catalogue of Books contained in the Library of the American Bible Society. New York, 1855, p. At our request the manuscript has been examined by J. G. SHEA, Esq., the well known biblical scholar, who describes it as a set of foolscap sheets numbered from 33 to 306, of what is technically called copy, having the usual marks of the printer and having already passed through the press. It includes from Psalms 22: 20, to the end of that book, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Solomon's Song, Esaias, Jeremias, Jonas, Micha, Nahum, Habbakkuk, Sophonrias, Haggai, Zacharias and Malachi. On comparing it with CHARLES THOMSON'S edition of the Septuagint and with his handwriting, it is found to be undoubtedly a portion of the autograph translation of that work. The ascribed authorship in the Catalogue is therefore erroneous. 2. THE GOSPELS, written in the Negro Patois of English with Arabic characters, by London, a Mandingo Slave in Georgia. This manuscript is in the possession of W. B. Hodgson, Esq., of Savannah, into, whose hands it came some time after London's death. The manuscript has the vowel points correctly used. He apparently got some one to read the Bible for him and he wrote it phonetically, using Arabic letters. Mr. Hodgson in a paper on it read before the Ethnological Society in 1857, gave the following as a specimen: Fas chapta ab jon, Inde beginnen wasde wad; Ande Wad waswid Gad, Ande wad was Gad. J.
