At a late meeting of the officers and managers the Halcigh llible Society, taya the Register of the Cih an Agent was appointed to go through this County, for the purpose of in creatine: the circulation of the Bible. in oursuance of a Resolution pissed at the annual meeting in December last.

The Rev. Mr, Winston, an Agent of ther American Biblr Society, (of Which this Society la Auxiliary,) bring present, he was requested to give to ihe meeting such information -at he "had beeo'abW to eollect in thejur uey which he had lately taken through this" State, in order' to ascertain the state of the Bible cause. This request was cheerfully complied with, and the account proved very interesting to the is nf opinion, that there Ire in this State, ten thousand- families destitute of the Bible that tn one-half the Cooirtiea there are no Bible Societies that many of the Societies in existence are very inelEcient, some of them not hav. ing met for two, three or four years that in some portions of the State, the operations of Bible Societies are opposed, even by those who profess to be Christians. But though these facts wediscouraging, it is believed, that the Bible is gaining efficient, zealous friends and advocates, in many parts of the State.

The Iredell Bible So-ciety has resolved to supply the destitute io that county, nd the wotk is by this time probably effected. There were found in Iredell, more than 230 families without a Bible. This fact waa ascertained "by the Sheriff of the County, at the time he collected the taxes.

Wretched Depravity We reluctantly discharge duty which devolves on us as public journalists, io noticing what we believe to be an unprecedented instance of human depravity.

On Tuesday night, the. 13th inst. two girls, sitters, were apprehended ia Lincoln county, 6 or 7 miles cast tf the court-house, on suspicion of having morcTered a infant child, of which o7rrbf-lhcm'rw been delivered a short time previous auUjrftfeJfotf ncsday morning. On iis being ru-. mored that the brother of the girls was concerned its ihe foul trantauion Charged against them, the Sheriff of Lincoln, and others, went in pursuit of and overtook and arretted him iu Mecklenburg county; from whence he was taken to Lincoloton and lodged in jail on Sunday.

All three of the parties were examined before a special court of magistrates and the folio ving facts, among others, came out in evidence, or by the vol-uotary confession of the parties: The younger of the rslstcrs jrno was only between 13 and 14 -years Id, wasdtlivtred of a li ving child which her elder sister killed' and buried in thegarden thereto by the threats of her brother, who declared he would kill her if she did not do the girls say, is the father of the child Previous" to the arrest of the girls, their brother made bis iescapef went. into Vicckiecbur- -county, was married to a respectable yung lady on Thursday, aod was apprehended, as above stated, by the Sheriff of Lincoln, on Saturday night. We refrain from entering into further particulars of this unique and aoul-aickening transaction, or from indulging in such reflections as the occasion would seem to call for as, in due time, there will be a judicial investigation of the whole affair when justice will be meted to all the parties.
