The following letter from a Jew in Holland to a friend
in this country, who inquired into the condition of the Jews in the
kingdom of the Netherlands, will show, that in a country where the
Jews are much more numerous than ity are ever likely to become
here, there is To jealousy in admitting them to any employment
which they are fit to hold. The letter is from M. 'levee, of Am.l
sterdam, whose work on judicial institutions has given him a Eu.
ropean reputation, and ranked him in the first class of writers on ju-
risprudence e—
" AMSTERDAM, 31.tacu 29.---1 have received your kind letter
of the 26th ult. to which 1 have to reply, that, at the time of our
Revolution, in the year 1798, Mr. Lemon, a physician, and Mr.
Brunel, were members of the National Representation. Under
the French Government I was a Judge in the Tribunal de Pre.
mien Instance of An:mention, and a member of the Conseil (ie.
anal de Departement (being at that time the Provincial States).
M. C. Asset has been a Justice of the Peace at Amsterdam since
the Restoration of the House of Orange. 1 was Judge for three
years, until 1807, when I resigned. I was Secretary of the Com-
mission which framed the Constitution, and am at this time a Knight
of the Belgic Lion. hi. Auer, whom I just now named, has been
employed since the year 1807 in the office of the Minister of Justices,
or what the French call Chef de Division. He is a Iteferendary at
the Council of State (in French. Maine de Requetes), and a
Knight of the Order. So were Mr. Al. S. Amer (his father),
' Mr. Cappadose, and Mr. Davide, all eminent physicians here, and
at Rotterdam. Mr. T. Boas has been since the year 1824 a
Justice of the Peace Isere ; and Mr.; Joseph Yong, at present' re-
siding in Amsterdam. was a member of the High Court of Batavia,
and bas now a pension from Government. My brother is a lawyer,
and Major of the Militia here We have a many lawyers,
attorneys-at-kw, banisters, and eminent physgt, both here, at
the Hague, and Rotterdam, and a great many Jews are employed
in less important offices. Mr. Mender de Leon is a member of the
Common Council of this town; so is Mr. Ezekiel, in Rotterdam,
and Mr. Weil, a physician, at Amersfoort. In the army we had
Mr. L. S. Boas, a Captain, who was drowned in the shipwreck
of the Waterloo transport, with five other officers, bound for
the Indies. In the colony of Surinam, to which my friend klr.
Asset and I have caused the emancipation of the Jews to be ex-
tended, Mr. de Is Pena and Mr. Sashes are members of the Court
of Policy.
" It is impossible for use to enumerate all the Jews who hold
more or less important offices, much less to give you their:names
and the dates of their appointment ; but I hope this summery no-
tice will be sufficient. 1 have written several work, • and among
the other *whore I .may mention Mr. Housel, at Brussels, who
holds a situation in the Bank dine s he has published some works,
on account of which he has been crested a Doctor in Phtloophy by
the Academy of Laureint. kir. beryesolin, jou. has written a very
ingenious and learned Liitin Dissertation on the state of the Jews
under the Roman Emperors, down to the time of Justinian. In ge-
neral, I may say, Aston no account have the Jews to complain of the
behaviour towards them by the Government, and especially
of the King and his ministers, 110 T has government any rea-
son to complain of the behaviour of the Jews in office, who all of them
do not know a single exception) are highly valued and esteemed.
'or myself, I am quite out of having resigned my seat se a
Judge, and my appointment as Secretary to the Connaissiee of the
Constitution having been only for a temporary pumas ; but I have
hod other very great offers, and have the honour ban higlay
distinguished by his Majesty whatever I pay my respects st Coin."
