democratic paper in Ohio, alluding to this
expression in favor of Mr.. Douglas, SAYS very
pointedly: The Democrats of Ohio have
the sense to see that the only hone for the
Democratic party in the free States is an ad-
herence to the compact agreed upon bv the
representatives of both sections in the Nation.

compact was non-interference bv Congress

The jews NOT PoLITIcIANs-A Southern
delegate to the Jewish Conference lately held
in New York, says in a letter to the Herald
of that city:
"a writer has undertaken to inform the
public that the object of the meeting of
lsraelites which convened here this week was
for the purpose of interfering in politics, and
to form such body as has never been insti-
tuted among any other religious denomina-
tlon. 1t is scarcely necessary to inform you
that the writer could not have had any
knowledge of the character of the assembly
or else he could not have descended to such
vile and false insinuations as he has resorted
to. The Israelites never have had any re-
ligious union in this country, and the want of
concert of action has become daily more
apparent. The Israelites of New York have
heretofore, invited their brothers of other
cities to meet them in conference, in order to
form if possible such union as prevails among
other denominations, to promote their reli
gious and moral welfare In politics we new
er wish to form party with us religion is
too sacred a matter to be dragged into the
arena of politics. where the holiest thing can
only be touched by the finger of pollution"
