WILEY CONVICTED.

II will be learned with pleasure, BY every friend

companed their verdict with strong recommends

Imprisonment in the State Prison not exceeding five
years.

HEBREW BENEVOLENT SocIErY.-This society cell
ebraed rs nineteenth anniversary last evening when
upwards OF two hundred persons partook Of an ele-
giant dinner at The Washington Hotel Among the
guests his honor the Mayor and the president of
the Board Of Aldermen, the District Attorney Doc
tor Mott and number of Christian gentlemen of all
sects, together with goodly portion of the press
The room was handsomely decorated, a select band
of music performed several choice pieces from Mo
SEES in Egypt, and in the Of the evening exc
cuted some fine overtures. The report of the board
of directors, setting forth the condition of the So
cety, and the constant claims from immigration, was
read by Judge Noah and followed by an eloquent ap-
peal from the Reverend Mr.. Isaacs upward of rwo
THOUSAND DOLLARS were collected in aid of the funds
and offerings also made in the most liberal man
ner by gentlemen of other religious denominations.
IL was quite an interesting OCCASION and awakened
"reminiscences OF by gone days. Here were the pill
grim from the Holy land--the merchant from the Pa
cfc Ocean-the trader beyond the Cape of Good
Hope, and dwellers the borders of the Dneper the
Danube and Dneister representatives as il from
every quarter OF the globe, peaceably assembling un-
der our free nstitutions-e the protection of
equal laws, and IN common with their Christian
brethren, dispensing charity to the aged and needy
AT the lower end of the beautiful and spacious hall
between the American and English ships we saw the
banner of Judah, with Hebrew inscriptions in gold
letters. How strange That banner has not been
urled for 1900 years and was last seen floating on
the walls of Jerusalem when beseigcd by Titus Yes
pasanus
There are five or six synagogues now in this city.
The old congregation from Mill street which for one
hundred years was the only one in this city, and now
has elegant building ia Crosby street one in Elm

and new one in Attorney street; and the whole
number of Jewish residents. is not ort of eight or
ten thousand, nearly all doing good business, and
many already wealthy. They have Sunday schools
of their own, and some of their children attend our
public schools 1t is evident from the great resources
of this country, and the facilities of reaching our
shores, that vast immigration of these people will be
spread the whole Union in few wears. We
hear of them in all directions principally however,in
cities, few yet being agricuursls which once was

eff we investigate the proportion according to the
nature of the products in which the value of the inn
ports is distributed, shall ind referring to the
table No L that the articles necessary to trade &C.
are valued in the general commerce at 81 per cent
and in the special at 81 per cent; that the arti-
Giles of consumption valued therein al 81 and 25
per cent and the manufactured articles of consump-
ton at ID and Is per cent in fine, that the twofod
comparison shows an increase to have taken place in
the two first classes, and decrease in the third"
The particulars given in the extracts below re-
speeding the imports and exports of France for 1870
contain much interesting information
Passing on to examine what proportion each de-
scripton of mercha "dse has borne in the amount Of
imports, the following results will be observed
amongst others Cotton woods reckoned at Isl
900 GA per cent in the total value of the goods
imported and out of these 15l000000 9l,000,000
were entered for internal consumption. In compare
son with 1895, these sums show surplus difference
of g. and 80 per cent. The importation Of silks
which had given way in 1899, has again risen with
out, however, having reached so high amount as
in 1888 There has been decrease in the arrival Of
sugars from colonies, but an increase in the
amount cleared; the surplus difference is per cent
From 1885 to 1888 the value of the foreign grain en-
tered for home consumption did not exceed on the
average 100000 year; 1t rose in 1889 to 25 Co.,
900, and in 1910 to 47,0O0,000. Wools in general,
the importation of which gave way in 1885, have sus-
tanned further decrease regards the special com
merce. A firm increase may be remarked in the
gener al mportations of oeagnous fruits The value
scarcely amounted in 1895 to S,000,000. II was in
1885, 81 900 900, and in 1910 more than 81 100000
The increase took place in leaf tobacco the in
PRODUCTION of which for the account of the Reggie is
still ncreasng. The increase has amounted during
the year to more than 20 per cent. Since 1888 the
importations Of webs of flax and hemp destined for
the internal consumption Of the kingdom have been
annually decreasing. On the contrary, the amount
of the imports of spun yarn and hemp which scarce
y reached l0000OU0 in 1885, has risen from year TO
year to nearly 28000000 No sensible variation has
taken place in the importation Of barron and rough
cast-iron; there appears in the amounts relating to
the latter article tendency to decrease. Those of
coal have progressively increased since 1885 The
year 1910 presents the largest amount Of the whole
period 1s,O00,0 OO;) that Of 1895 was only 10000

the 18th inst. for Philadelphia, with acargo of cotton
rice &c, went ashore SinepuAent beach the eve
ming of the 10th inst, the wind blowing heavy at the

inst, and he states that when he left the beach the
cargo had all been landed, but in damaged state ;
the vessel had bilged, and il was supposed would be
a total wreck. The r. +. l.. was on the return of
her first voyage built at Wilmington Delaware
rated about 100 tons-lnd insured in two Of our Off

Young y Co., of Wilmington, Delaware, and Capt.
John DAILY, who had command Of her. Sinepuxent
inlet is about l25 miles southwark of Cape Henlo-
pen. Mr.. AUcHINLEoK informs that brig went
ashore in the gale about ten miles TO the south
ward Of them, said to be a Boston packet from the
Observation-Disclosures that she had not bilged.

Oh it was not the music, though richly its notes
Through the aisles of temple were pealing
As soft and as sweet the spirit that floats
From the heart full of passionate feeling
While the planets oftwght are sparkling half shown
Like the bright eyes of angels when lonely
They glitter above their blue-grdled throne
To gladden. the worshipper only
And II was not the glory which ever beams out,
Like seraph of light, ON devotion,
When our frail barques of Being long tossed about
Would glide to Etentys ocean,
Oh, no. twas not these which then rapturousy stole
Ger my heart with feeling so tender
And waited Oh pnons of lightning the soul
To the innermost source of ALL sPLENpoR.
Twas the light of thine eyes, where the rainbow Of

With the star-gush Of intellect burning,
Seem'd ever, as longing for Beauty above,
To its home in the amplitude turning
Thus, the priest Of the orient looks at his shrine
Where the rays of the Sun-God are streaming,
And drinks from the glory rapture divine
Which can only be caught from their BEAnINe.
