Burning the Bible Again.

News comes from Fiji that on one of the islands in that part of the South Pacific considerable excitement has been caused by the public burning of 300 Bibles by the Catholics. This sacrilegious act in the presence of converted and unconverted inhabitants of these islands is said to have caused much friction between the Catholics and Protestants. How can it be proved that Rome’s seeming encouragement of the reading of the Bible in America is more than a subterfuge when in the islands of the sea, in the presence of the heathen, the Bible is being burned as a dangerous book?
