THE JEWISH SABBATH-It is unlawful to
ride on horseback or in a carrlage-to walk
more than mile from their dwellings-to
transact business of any kind-to meddle with
any tool-to wrte-to play upon any musical
instrument-to Battle-Ground the halr-and
even to carry a pin in their clothes which is
unnecessary. These, and a great many others
are complied with by the most rigid. There
| is one command in the law of Moses to which
all Jews must scrupulousy adhere: aye shall
kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon
the Sabbath day" (Exod. xxxv., 8. )-Conse-
a candle on the sabbath day, nor eat food pre-
pared on that day-all must be done on FIJI
day As it is impossible to spend the sabbath
in cold climates without fire or light the Jew
ish families who keep servants make it point
to have Gentle in their service to do these
things; and among the humber classes num-
ber Of families generally unite in securing the
service of Gentle neghbor for the day.
Nothing could wound the conscience of a Jew
more than to be under the necessity of putting
fuel on the fire, OF snuhing his candles, on the
sabbath. The British Jews.
IMPLEMENTS OF DEsrRUcTroN.-Everyf few
days some new invention is announced, the
chief merit of which is its extraordinary abll-
ity to destroy human life. Men are earnestly
endeavoring to discover the best possible means
for slaughterng each other.
At Baltimore, an improvement IN artillery
is exhibited, called "Shaw Il Ames' patent
revolving battery" 1t Itconsists of a brass cy
Under, revolving horizontally, and containing
any number of chambers, with stationary
barrel. It is loaded, primed, fired and swab-
bed, all with one simple movement of a break,
which was repeated eighty times in one minute.
The whole operation can be performed by one
man.
AT Boston lately an experimental trial was
made with breach-loading carbine, patented
by col. j. D. Green, which was discharged hf-
teen times at target IT'S yards distant, but
one ball missing the mark. At 200 yards, go
shots hit out Of 80 The carbine weighs only
seven pounds and can easily be discharged ten
times per minute.
In this city a new "reyolving rifle has been
exhibited, which is claimed to possess many
| advantages over Colts invention. It contains
eight barrels. in separate pieces, to be detached
from the gun before loading. Two or more
sets of barrels may be used in connection with
the firing apparatus, and can easily be carried
in the pocket. By using three sets, twenty
four balls can be fred in minute

Since the passage Of the 'prohibitory law in
some of the New England States, it is found
that there are many evasions of the law, in
selling fancy drinks and medical prescriptions,
with all sorts of queer names and composed Of
all sorts of queer materials. The Canadian
parliament, which hasa prohibitory law under
discussion has referred it back TO the commit
see. to include provision which shall prevent
the law being thus evaded.

A prominent minister lately remarked that
the style of preaching in this country, and espe-.
cially in the northern and eastern sections OF
it, had greatly changed within twenty years;
then the criterion by which sermon was mea-
sured was its adaptation to bring sinners to the
Lord Jesus Christ; the style was bold, direct,
searching, scriptural, ''full Of Christ and him
crucifed;' but now another style, more suited
to literary taste, and more calculated to gath
er crowds than to convict sinners of sin, is pre-
yailinc. Presbyterian Her

A lieutenant in the royal navy had written
political pamphlet, but being called to his du-
ty, was not able 10 see it through the press.
He therefore placed it in the hands of book
seller, desiring that he would give it to some
literary man, who, for duly preparing it for
publication, should have half the profits. Tho
bookseller gave it to Mr.. Cooke, who soon dis
charged his duty. The work was published.
and the profits were thirty pounds. all of which
was given to Mr. Cooke, who took his portion.
and reserved the other half for the author
whenever he should call for it. Many years
elapsed, and he heard nothing Of him. Al
length gentleman called on him, told his
name, and declared himself to be the author Of
the pamphlet. telling him that he knew fifteen
pounds were due to him On account OF the
pamphlet, and adding that he was ashamed to
take it, but that f'his poverty and not his wll'
consented, as he had a wife and An increasing
family. Mo- Cooke had the money ready for
him, which the stranger took, and expressed
his gratitude at parting. This necessitous au-
thor, who afterwards went to the bar. was the
late lord Erskine.
