... GEN. 41. 45. — And Pharoah called Joseph's name Zaphllath-paaneah, He gave liitn a new name, partly because he was a foreigner, and partly to honour him and yet to denote him to be his subject, though ruler of every body else.

... Mr Eneas Me. Donnell, a Roman Catholic, has addressed a long and forcible letter to the Times on the subject of the Roman Catholic Oath-upon which we have over and over again expressed our opinion. The letter is too long, important as it is, for insertion entire.
