Cape Coast (no name given).—As no revelation has been made to us in Holy Scripture as to the language of the blessed, when "in the Kingdom of their Father," how can you expect us to know anything about it? see St. Luke, ix., 30, 31, and 35 and 36. The Apostles heard and understood what was said; but we do not know in what language the words were spoken. There will be no stagnation, nor idleness in Heaven, and that there will be work of some kind unaccompanied by fatigue, or wear and tear; but certainly, no "doctors" will be needed, and no "engineers," nor teachers of "languages." If you study your Bible a little more carefully you will not send us such questions.

Biblio.—You do not say whether your old Bible be an illustrated one, nor do you give any particulars respecting it—even of its dimensions. A volume of the Authorised Version, London, by R. Barker, of 1611, folio, the value would be from £10 to £15. The Royal Version (by same publisher), of 1616, is valued only at a few shillings. The Genevan and Tomson (same publisher), London, of 1615, is valued at about 17s. There is another by Barker, of this date, worth only 12s.
