Al tue present moment a Jew stdnOS al
the head of nearly every walk in life
throughout Europe. The Rothschilds
command the money market of Europe
some in Paris, some in Vienna, some in
London-and that family loaned immense
sums to both Russia on the one hand, and
tho Allies on the other, in the late war in
Europe. In literature, for centuries they
have produced the ablest scholars, the
subtlest of all thinkers, the foremost men
of each age. In the dark ages. and amid
the greatest persecution, they have pro-
duced lights whose lustre still shines and
now, in England, Jew, D'Israeli, leads
the House of Commons, and a Jew is Lord
Mayor of London. In Germany at least
halt dozen Of the most distinguished pro-
tessors are that race. The great Neander
himself was one of them, and Mendels.

power of language. In Spain, men of this
nation have, in former days, as professed
Jesuits, while secretly retaining their own
faith, obtained direction even OF the lnqui-
sition. In fact, there arc few hei ghtt Of
power to which they have not attained, as
there are no amounts of persecution they
have not endured. No matter, what they
undertake, they seem to push it through
with vigor and an enterprise that they
carry their point TO the furthest attainable
degree, and further than will be reached
by any other. The ablest musician in
London was Jew, Braham. who retained
his voice and his position till about eighty,
forming his name out Of Abraham, by the
simple expedient of dropping the 4, to dis
guise his origin. And so in like manner
the most distinguished actress of Paris, at
this moment, is Rachel, the Jewess. In
fact, no matter wha, they turn their hands
to, philosophy or in fine arts, money
changing or old clothes they uniformly
push their occupations to an extent, and
with a closeness of computation, that car
ries them beyond all competitors.

Very just and truthful remarks +; and JUS
tice is seldom meted out to this prescribed
and prosecuted race. There is large
population Of Jews in this city, and with
all our time .honored prejudices it is i'm
possible to deny that they are Industrious,
frugal, peaceable and law -obeying citizens.
We never hear of their collecting around
tho polls on election day, and assuming
the right Of preventing Americans from
casting their votes. They don't stab or
bruise the heads of their fellow.ci,izens in
the streets madden themselves with bad
whisky, assault their wives, or come up to
the Tombs, day after day, charged with
foul and brutal offcnses. They are con.
tent to mind their own business pursue
their own avocations, and generally con-
triye to keep out of the alms-houses and
prisons. There is another class of resi-
dents among US Tout in full force on Tues
day) who would become better citizens by
following the example Of the hated and
despieed descendants Of Father Abraham.

al American voter at the polls, attempting
to cast an illegal vote, or using pistols and
