THE SCRIPTURE SELECTIONS. —A great
amount of talk is going on about a book
generally called the "Ross Bible." Rev.
Mr. Cook, of this plane, gave -a discourse
on this book last Sunday. As many
have never had an opportunity of seeing
the book it might not be amiss to offer
some explanation. About two. years
ago this book was prepared by the Edu-
cation Department and thus placed in
the hands of the teachers of this Pro-
vince, readings selected from the Bible
in convenient lessons. The book
divided -into five parts. The first gives
the history of the World from Adam to
Zedekath and describesasil the principal
events, including the flood, life of Noah,
Abraham, Isaac, Joseph, Moses, Joshua,
the principal Judges, the Kings from
Saul to Zedikiah, the bondage, the
exodus, the life in Canaan, and the
temple built and re -built, all put in
direct na3rative so that children may
follow the story through without a turn. -
The second part consists of devotional
exercises selected from the Psalms, Pro-
verbs, Job, Isaiah, Ezekiel,EcelesiaStes,
Micah, and Malichi. The third, part
contains -the life of Christ; the t four
CospeIsbeing combined and the events
given in historical order. The -fourth
contains the Acts of the Apostles and a
fail account of the Apostle Paul as far
as recorded in HOly Writ. The fifth
consists of thirty -selections from the
Epistles, including all the doctrines
held by the Protestant denominations.
Now, before this book was plaCed in the
schools, it was submitted to the princi-
pal Protestant bodies, and received their
approval Rev. Mr. Cook, of this place,
on Sunday evening last, repeated again
and again that this book was given by
the compilers as the WHOLE Bible, when
if he had taken the trouble to read .the
first paragraph of the preface he would
have seen this: "This volume of Scrip-
ture Readings has been prepared under
" the direction of the Education Depart-
ment, in order to place in the hands of
"every teacher, in convenient form
" anosa roaaloss of the Bible best
" adapted to the capacity of Public and
"High Schools pupils. It has been
" carefully revised by all the leading re-
" ligious denominations, and will be
"found to contain a course of lessons so
"arranged as to include the most in-
" structive portions of both the Old and
"New Testatment." The reverend
gentleman alsp said that Faith and Re-
pentance were not fully taught, but itis
clear to every one who has examined
this book, that a book which gives two
hundred proof texte of Faith and Re-
pentance, cannot be cendemned on that
head, and if Mr. Cook can produce 200
proofs against the " Ross Bible" and
forward them to Toronto (postpaid) the
Ontario Government, I have no doubt,
will withdraw the book,
