Tho attention which has boon drawn
in tho nowstmpor to some remarks upon
tho uso or tho word " hell" in tho Eng
lish Bible, mado by a preacher of con
siderable reputation in a recent sermon
at Westminster, furnishes a remarkable
example of tho prevalent misconception
against which thoso remarks were di
rected. There appears to havo been a
good tlcal in Dr. Farrar's sermons to
cxclto controversy, but tho secular pa
pers havo plunged into tho discussion
with a zeal that is scarcely according to
knowledge, assuming that he had an
nounced some startling novelty of doc
trine, whereas, so far as concerns tho
passage especially untlor dispute, ho
simply said what cvory biblical student
knows ami has said again and again,
that the word "hell," in its modern pop
ular acceptation, doe not express tho
menningof tho words which it Is used
to tntnslato, or oven tho meaning that it
had in tho minds of the translators.
What is tbo "orthodox" doctrine upon
futuro punishment It Is nntourprovlnco
to discuss, but thero is nothing In litur.t
ry criticism more certain than that tiio
popular Idea now attached to the word
"hell" has little or no connection
with Its utvmoloiry. or with tho sonso
in which it is most frequently employ oil
in tho llible, this, llko many other old
words, having acquired in modem
times a special significance that did not
belong to it three centuries ago. Tho
word itself is Anglo-Saxon, and its as
sociated verb is helan, to cover or con
coal. Luther's Diblo haslloclle, which
is nearly the sumo as tho (Jerman
Uoehlc, a hollow; a dirk, hidden placo.
Hull, or Walhallii, is tho nhodo of de
parted heroes. In short, our English
word "hell" corresponds as nearly as
possible with tho Qreek Hades, tbo
Latin infer!, tiio obscure abode of de
parted spirits, tho unknown land be
yond tho grave, and this is precisely
tho sign! Heat ion of tho words which
nro (iommonly translated "hell" in tho
authorized version. Tho Hobrow Khool
is used very vaguely and in u varloty
of connections. It is doubtful if it ever
siguitles a placo of torment, and often
it is properly translated as tho gravo.
Jacob, for instance, says: " For I will
go uown into the gravo unto my sou
mourning." Here and In tho corres
ponding passage, " bring down my gray
hairs with sorrow to tho gravo" tho
Hebrew word ts preclnely tho samo
that is elsewhere translated hell, tho
Greek Hades. Sometimes it has very
plainly its etymological meaning, as
when Job says: '0 that thou wouldst
hide mo in tho grave (in hell); that thou
wouldst keep mo secret till thy wrath
bo past" It is doubtful, as has been
said, whother ijhoel, in the older books
nt least, over expresses a placo of tor
ment; it Is rather the pluco of detention,
tho intermediate stato between death
aud tho ilnul consummation nOili things.
It was after tho exile that tho idea was
formulated among the Jews which wo
find in the parable of Dives and Lam
ms, of n separation between tho "prison
house" of tho good nnd tho bad. In
tho Now Testament, (Jchonmi, tho
naiiio of tho placo where tho oll'ul and
rubbish of tho city wore cast, and whore
llres wero kept burning to purify tho
nir, and which was coiihc'iuontly em
ployed in popular motaphor, occurs fre
quently, but it Is translated in our ver
blon precisely as the still more frequent
word Hades, aud it Is to this promiscu
ous use of tho word "hell" that biblical
students like Dr. Farrar have long ob
jected. There aro still other words In
both the 02(1 and tho Now Testaments
which are rendered in Kiiglish alike,
to the evident confusion of tho popular
mind. Tho sense in which tbo word
was more commonly employed than In
any other by tho translators of tho Hi
bio is the same in which It Is used in
the kntiithcn en J lade; dexcenkil ml fi
Vr) "ho descended Into hell." As
tit. 1'aul expresses It: "Now that ho
m-ccmlcd, what is it but that ho tilM)
descended llrst into the lower parts of
the earth;" or, us wo havo it in the
1's.ilms and quoted more than once in
tho New ToMiunoJit, "that his Mini wus
not left In hell." It is very plain that
this Is an utterly dillcrciil meaning
fiom that which now iittnehuH lo the
word in popular use, ami that as a mat
ter of literary iiccur.tcy, apart from all
questions ol doctrine, our accepted
translation could bo improved upon re
vision. What Canon Farrar, or anybody
else, may cbooao or roluso to teach upon
this or any similar suljoct on which tho
Bible and tho ancient creeds aro alike
obscure, Is not u subject lor uiscumioii
hee; but arguments which aro based
upon Iiihlo texts ought to bo read with
ati understanding of lilblo words.

From nu nddress by Lconnrd Deano,
Esq., boforo tho Kontucky Wool Grow
ers' Association, wo mnko tho follow
ing extract:
Tito valuo of nil kiuds of wool is de
termined by its strength, lustre, work
lug qualities and shrinkage. Wool if
divided by governments for tnrlfT, antl
wool merchants, into tlneo classes:
Clothing, combing aud carpet, und in
produced in quantity in this ordor.
Kentucky wool should bo classed as
combing, delaine, medium coarse and
blnek. Wool morchnnts separate each
division into as many classss as thoro
aro distinct qualities or staples In each
division, to Hit It, tho purchaser. Manu
facturers take tho ileecos, putting tbnm
Into iiH many classes as thoro nro dis
tinct qualities In each llcecc, according
to Its length, color, lustre, etc., except
tho gummy locks, which they will not
hoy unwashed, Clothing wool Is gen
erally divided into three classes lino,
medium aud coarse. The average prlco
forllfty three years, slnco 1821, for each
class per washed pound, is for linn, GIJ
cents: medium, fill) cents: coarse, ol
. . . - . . i -
corns; or neany oj cents per pounci ies
on each class as It grown coarser. Aver- .
ago price per wasliod pound Australian
in London, for 187; J to 1807, inclusive,
is estimated by Mr. Hood, MJ conts
gold. Counting freights, commission,
etc., for samo period, the average prlco
In currency for washed Australian,
would bu HO cents per pound In Now
York, or 10 ronts more than jtny of our
clothing wools, and 129 cents moro than
any of our coarso wools. Card or X
wools aro required to bo lino, short In
staple, " full of spiral curls and snrmt
uros." Combing wool consists in draw
ing out tho fibres straight and parallel;
thou twisted into yarn, called worsted,
" tho ends in spinning boing covered,
mnko tho yarn smooth and lustrous."
Tho staple should bo generally tlvo or
olght Inches lbng, having it fow " Bplral
curls and scrratures," with distinct
lustre.
Tho qualities nro found in tho Eng
lish in tholr order of perfection, as fol
lows: The Lincolnshire, Leicester nnd
Uotswold breeds. Delaine wools nro
shorter and liner, antl can bo tisod an
short us 2j Inches, but It must bo very
tlno and nice. Tho coarser tho staple
longer It must bo. Thoso aro not class
ed In tho trade as combing wools. Thoro
aro line, medium and coarso combing
wools. Tho duty on this wool will
equal 11 cents por pound, and 10 per
cent, ad vutoruin. 1'oorly bred wooIh
aro very objectionable, with n lino
downy bottom and coarso uneven fibres.
Those aro generally sold for carpot
wools. I need only say lo tho wool
growers of this Htnte, that there Is u
wider Held In tho expansion of growing
wool fabrics than your Imagination can
take In.
Ili(Jit-iutni) A.NIMAI.H. High-bred
animals aro rarely nrolltablo for tho
farmer, except for tho propagation of
Improved grades by crossing on natlvcH
or common stock; honco a armor who
has at largo expense procured a herd
or flock or pure bred stock, finds them,
deteriorating In condition aud appear
ance, and lo-s productive than ho ex
pucted. This has boon tho almost uni
versal experience of farmers. In select
ing animals for purchase, thoso that
have tho most attractive appearance
aro noimrally choson, with little regard
to anything else than to please the eye.
The largest and bent proportioned, or
thoso of tho most fancied colors, nro
profored, because theso aro tho most
conspicuous points, und they appeal to
tho sight rather than to an expert Judg
ment. Tho points which mako a ptirt
hi'cd animal valuable to a farmer as it
moans ol Improving his herd aro not
these, hut such as llo deeper and require
(xporlouco und Judgment to detect.
Tho lino bono, small ollid, quality of
llesh, vigorous constitution, and hored
llary excellence, do not id ways In fact
rarely accompany oxcesslvo slzoor at

to make up the true value of an animal

his stock rather than tho latter. Ar. Y.
