For those wishing to know: Slater was one of a group of scholars who were 
suggesting that the traditional English translation of the Bible, the King 
James, needed an update.  This is a scholarly pamphlet (1856) suggesting 
principles that would need to be considered.  It also contains a lot of 
parrallel passages contrasting the KJV against what he thought would be a 
better translation.

All the best,
