PHILO-JUMEAN SOCIETY.

We on Thursday night attended a meeting of Us Society, whie
is formed for the purpose of discussing those prophecies that are con-
tained in the Bible relative to the Jewish nation. Mr. Selig New-
man, a professor of the Hebrew language, having challenged any
Jewish convert or learned Christian to dispute with him, from the
Bible, on those texts of Scripture relative to the Messiah, on which
Christians rely for proofs of Jesus being, the Messiah, the Rev. Jo-
&lib Wolff, the well-known Jewish convert, has undertaken to
meet Mr. Newman, and any other Jewish friends, and to dimwit
the subject with them.

Mr. NEWMAN selected several passages from Scripture, few
which he desired Mr. Wolff to explain bow they could be meant
to apply to a Messiah.
Mr. WOLFF immediately rose to give the required explanation,
and was enforcing his argument by reading from the Hebrew text
those parts which he conceived had been erroneously translated
into English ; but happening, in some points to touch rather
on the Jewish faith, an uproar was immediately raised among
the assembly, which was formed principally of Jews, and every
effort on the part of the Chairman to quell it was perfectly =a—
and, after some time, Mr. 'Wolff's voice again became audible*

time before the Chairman could obtain any order whatever. It was
then deemed advisable by the Chairman that the meeting should be
adjourned until yesterday evening. This proposal was met by many
others from the persons present, some proposing that the meeting
should be broken up altogether; others, that thanks should be
returned to the Chairman ; and another, that a prayer should be
offered up by all present that they might meet at the next meet-
ing with hearts not sn obstinately opposed to each other. Nome
of these proposals were agreed to, and the meeting was adjourbed
at about a quarter past nine o'clock.

Cooper, 93, Bishopsgate-street-Within, respectfully apprised the
Nobility and Gentry, that he continues to supply every doseriptiost
(.!* Upholstery and Cabinet Work, with Glasses of the most aa-
treme size as well as moderate dimensions, and every other artiste
connected with the furnishing of Houses in the most splendid as
well as the neatest style, combining elegance and simplicity with
true taste, thus obtaining, at a very moderate expeace, such a su-
perior general effect, which the most laboured and costly furniture
when not well arranged, ever fails to produce. Fenton's New
lintel, St. James's-street, which is considered one of the first in
Europe for elegance and convenience, was entirely fitted up from
this Establishment, and presents a handsome specimen of the style
adopted by li. L. C. to attain the desired effect. H. L. C. con-
siders he can compete for excellence of workmanship and quality of
materials with any other house in London, and at such reasonable
Prices as will ensure him the patronage and support he has so
long enjoyed of some of the most distinguished faiailiesi A that
kingdom.
