person. Mr.. Carr, consul TO MoroccoD with sno-
rance. Great God A dissertation by Major Noah,
upon ignorance Why, will it be believed that the
Major is cruelty ignorant, that though tolerably
strict attendant at the Synagogue, he cannot name
the feasts and fast days.
Now all well read persons know that the Hebrews
pay strict observance their feass and fasts. The
principal are the following:-
TIE, % The day OF Atonement Ia fast.)
r1c1-w1 an Feast of Weeks.
NJ, w,c-17 Great Hosannah GLOWING Of trum-
pets and waving palm branches.
7:-;7 I'M New Year.
r7so Booths.
| -pc Passover.
IN 7ySi, Ninth day Of Alb Ia FAST in consequence
| of the destruction of jerusalem.
c,17c Purim (feast Of lots) found in Book Of Es-
| Their.
| ,1H-- H,r Great Sabbath. Shabbath. Shah
| bathon.
! They are 80 strict in observing these days that
they make an allowance for difference Of time,
cordng to a difference Of Longitude; Is degrees of
| longitude being equal to one hour in time. In Jeru-
salem, where they certain of having the right
and original time and day of "a hours they usually
apart but day of "a hours for the observance
of these feasts and fass but in America they appro
PIRATE AZ hours for the observance of each feast day.
Their great day the shobbah shab1athon, the sab
bath of sabbaths their next great day is the feast OF
trumpets, and particular are the Hebrews in OBJ
serving this, that Jerusalem they appropriate
AZ hours fer that psrpose.
And vet our learned Thebnn the Major, who lec-
lures Mr. Carr on his ignorance actually dated his
| "Grand Island Proclamation" on the very LIST day
of the Feast of Trumpets, ignorant was ne Of the
first principles of the religion in which he had been
reared. The consequence of this blunder was that
| the Hebrews exclaimed, GOOD God this man is
either an ignorant fool disappearing knave!-
And yet this learned Theban dares to talk Of igno-
rance. Eh? Major! Major!
think thou vruous there shall be
eyes, BY Anne and ginger shall be bot r,be mouth
With regard TO Mr.. Car-as we believe that It's
just give applause where ms deserved, we insert
the following from the Gazette
"Mr. Carr, who recently received the appointment
OF Consul 10 Morocco, and who was 50 brutally
abused on the occasion by an evening paper OF this
city, is, we understand, and from those who dislike
his politics as much as we do, very respectable
man. and quite competent discharge the duties of
the station 10 which he has been appointed He can
not, al all events be less capable than his mahgner,
who once tumbed accidentally into similar station
good on the part Of him who was tumbled out
Of that place much against his will ard SO morti-
flying TO his feelings, TO twlt Mr.. Carr with having
been a bookblnder." To be mechanic in this
country is not exactly disgacefal AT any
rate the trade Of bookbnder Is IS respectable as
that Of some Others.
! We endorse every word of the above. Mr.. Carr
we know well. He was one ofour Washington cor
respondents and deserves everlasting credit for raj
sing himself from the station of mechanic to that

AccIpESr.-We regret to learn from the New Or
leans Picay une that accident of very serious
ure occurred Mr. Jas. d. Anderson one of the pro-
pretors of the Commercial Herald of that city
Whilst returning from the lake. the 10th inst, his
horse took fright and started suddenly, by which he
was thrown 10 the ground, receiving severe frac-
ture in one of his ANGLES. He was kindly taken to
DR.. Luzenburgs Hospital, by some French gentle
men passing al the time in barouche. Every at
| tempt was made 10 save the limb, but without
cess, DR.. L. being compelled 10 amputae below the
knee. MIR. A. IS young man Of fine talents, prac-
teal printer, and formerly OF New York, where he
performed feat in setting type a few years since,
that astoRlshed the typos Of the whole world. We
do not rocollcct the exact amount, although present
at the time; but IL was between fifteen and siriee1
thousand ems IN ten successive hours Mr.. Anderson
universally admitted to be the fastest compositor
| in the world without any exception. He was a one
time reporter for the Transcript in this city, and was
| afterwards employed as a compositor on the New
York Evening Herald; thus proving the superiority
OF the Herald every other paper in the Union
when its composi;ors fit conduct the edi.
torial department OF any other paper Mr.. A. was
Of the many instances Of the superiority OF printers
over everyotherbody Of mechanics lie was we'll read
highly gifted by nature and will yet we trust live
many years TO prove along with franklin, Faust,
Woodwork Caxton, General Morris, Eli Moore,
Thomas S. Hamblin, Tyrone Power, and host Of
othe printers that the profession takes precedence of
all others. In addition TO his talents, Mr. Anderson

interesting relations Of domestic life; he has out Of

with him in his misfortune and to endeavor to sympa-
thize with and support him under his temporary Of.
