The same course is pursued in Baltimore and other places. Now, what is a sectarian book ? Is it not one that teaches the pe- culiar doctrine, policy and forms of worship that distinguish a denomi- nation ? And is not this just what we, Protestants, say our Bible teaches, and are we not so confident of this, that we are willing to give up all comments and leave out altogether the traditions of the fathers? It may be true, that in all this it is faithful to the original, but that is not the quest...ion. It is our version and the use of it that distin- guishes us as Protestants, and this use makes it a sectarian book. Why, there was a time when a hat made a Quaker, and a coat a Methodist. They were sectarian badges. And was not our translation made by the special command of a Protestant King ? Was it not prepared and published professedly as "an antidote to Popery;" and is it not for this very reason, that Protestant Bible societies and missionaries are so anxious to get their translations into Catholic countries ?
