Essays on the Superstitions of the Highlanders. By Mrs. Grant. RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE. FOREIGN. WE commence this department of our work, by giving a view of the different recent religious institutions of Great-Britain. We could wish it were in our power to give some authentick account of the Danish missions: but in the absence of data whereon to frame information, we must with regret pass by this interesting subject, with an assurance to our readers, that we shall hereafter use our endeavours to lay before them whatever can be obtained. Denmark, we believe, was the first who led the way in the glorious work of giving to the Heathen the word of God, as set forth in the Holy Scripture: an honour more to be desired than the triumphs of power, or the acquisitions of the conqueror. Except the exertions of Great Britain and Denmark, a few partial ones in Sweden, and one Bible Society in Germany, we look in vain over Europe for institutions such as those which are happily flourishing in our own country for circulating the Bible among the poor and the dissolute, and sending forth the servants of Christ into foreign lands to labour among those who know not God. We commence with an account of what in England is called "The Parent Institution." BRITISH AND FOREIGN BIBLE SOCIETY. THIS Society, whose name gives information relative to its views, was esta blished in the British capital about nine years ago. We may form an opinion of the vigour with which its objects are pursued, and the liberality with which it is supported, by observing, from the publication of its transactions at its eighth anniversary meeting in May last, that between two and three thousand persons assembled. That many hundreds, among whom were several of the nobility, and members of parliament, could not obtain admission, although a very spacious suite of apartments in the Freemason's Tavern in London, was thrown open to receive them. This Society is now printing, or has completed the translation of the scriptures into twenty-eight different languages and dialects in Asia, including the Arabick, Persick, and Chinese. The publication of the sacred volume is also undertaken by it in the Finnish and Icelandick languages, and in the dialect of the Lithuanians. It has already completed, and is circulating the Scriptures in the different languages and dialects of the countries of Swedish, Danish, and Russian Lapland; Poland, Bohemia, Livonia, and Esthonia; Sweden, Hungary, Italy, Greece, and Germany; and in France, among the French protestants and British prisoners of war. Among the Esquimaux in Labrador, also, the bible has been distributed, and received with tears of joy and gratitude. We have not the means of ascertaining whether this be a full statement of the number of languages and countries to which that Society has extended the possession of the bible. These data we gather from its last annual report; but we presume its benevolent exertions are still more extensive. In the united kingdom alone we observe it had distributed 106,423 bibles and testaments, in the space of eleven months. Its receipts for the past year, amounted to $193,333 33: its payments to $144,444 44: the balance in its treasury being 48,888 89: but against this it had already made engagements amounting to $62,222 22. From this view of its labours we may cordially join with the Society in the language of its report, that "like the little cloud which the Prophet's watchman saw from Carmel, rise out of the sea, and spread by degrees over the face of the heavens, cheering the Israelites with the prospect of fertilizing showers, the British and Fo reign Bible Society, small in its origin, has attained a conspicuous elevation and |
