THE JEWS.

The New York Express has the follow
ing:
Hidden away, as it were. behind the
great mass Of our Christian Inhabitants,
there is very large population of Jews
people, shut up. almost in themselves,
preserving their own customs, practising
their own sublime and glorious religion
and keeping up quietly. but faithfully,
the ceremonies and traditions that have
come down to them from their forefathers.
Observing their Sabbath, when all the
rest of our population is busily engaged
in traffic and business; the Jews have
but few Christians as visitors to their
places of worship; and the syragogues
remaining closed on Sunday. when peo-
pie so disposed usually investigate the
religious ceremonies of their neighbors.
But small portion of our citizens, COM
paratively, know any thing about the
very interesting Jewish ceremonial law
and practises.
The number OF Jews in the United
States exceeds quarter of a million.
and 10 the State of New York there are
about forty thousand, of whom nearly
seven eights reside in the Empire City.
This estimate is arrived at, not by any
census-the taking of which is forbidden
by the Jewish law-but by the amount
of unleavened bread consumed at the
season of the Passover. At that time,
for one week, no Jew is permitted to eat
leavened bread. The Passover bread
is baked in large public ovens, and is
dealt out to all applying at the rate Of
FIVE pounds 10 every man, woman and
child. By the law they are all obliged
TO eat it, and we understand that but
very few perhaps not five hundred in
the whole country-neglect to fulfill
their obligations in this PARTICULAR
Therefore, by the amount Of Passover
bread consumed it is very easy to COM
puIe the number of the faithful children
of Israel in this country.

A POLITE JUDGE.

Governor Ford, Of Illinois, tells an an
ecdole of one Of the early judges OF that
Stat, but the Governor does not put up
on record the name of the considerate
magistrate.
At the court over which this Judge
presided, man by the name of Green,
was convicted of murder, and the Judge
was obliged 10 pass sentence Of death up
on the culprii. Calling on the prisoner
10 rise, tho judge said to him: "Mr.
Green, the jury say YOU are guilty OF
murder, and the law says you are 10 be

The clerk looked as he was directed
and reported that that day four weeks
came on Thursday.
"Then," said the judge, "Mr. Green
if you please, you will be hung this day
four weeks at l2 O'Clock"
The Attorney General, James Turney

SETTING OUT NEW ORCHARDS.

There is no greater truth than this-it
is the interest of every one who has a
farm or plantation without an orchard to
plant one; il adds TO the comforts Of home,
enhances the value Of The place, and, if
properly managed after being planted,
may result in being a great source Of
profit.
The ground intended for an orchard
should neither be subjected to being
flooded in times of heavy rains, nor natu-
rally wet in times of drouth. Ifnot natu-
rally dry, it should be under-drained. II
should be PlOBed deeply by irench-Plow-
ing, to al least 20 inches in depth, besides

abound in both the tree and its fruit.

HOW MURAT DIED.

The sentence Of the military commits
sion was read 10 him with due solemnity
He listened to it, az he would have lis
tened to the cannon of another battle
during his military life, without emotion
or bravado. He neither asked for par
don, for delay, nor for appeal. He had
advanced of his own accord toward the
door, as if to accelerate the catastrophe.
The door opened on a narrow esplanade,
lying between the towers Of the castle
and the outer walls. Twelve soldiers,
with loaded muskets, await him there
The narrow space did not premit him
to stand at sufficient distance to deprive
his death of part Of its horror.
Murat, in stepping over the threshold
Of the chamber, found himself face to
face with them. He refused to have his
eyes bandaged; and. looking at the SOL
diers with a firm and benevolent smile,
said: "My friends. 10 not make me suf-
fer by taking bad aim. The narrow
space compels you almost to rest the
muzzles of your musksts on my breast;
do not tremble do not strike me in the
face; aim at my beart-here it is"
As he spoke thus. he placed his right
hand upon his coat, to indicate the posi-
ton of his heart. In his left hand he
held small medallion. which contained
in one focus Of love, the image of his
wife and four children, as if he wished
thus to make them witnesses Of his last
look. He fixed his eyes on this portrait, |
and received his death blow in the con.
temptation Of all be loved on earth. His
body. pierced at so short distance with
twelve balls, fell, with his arms open and
his face toward the earth, as if still en-
brscing the kingdom he once possessed,
and which he had come to reconquer for
his tomb. st.
They threw his cloak upon his body.
which was buriedin The Cathedral of Pizzi.
Thus died the most cbivalrous soldier Of
the Imperial epoch-nOt the greatest,
but the most heroic figure among the
champions Of the new Alexander !
