Gin at Wholesale.

1t was one day last week that a die
niied person, with the air, bearing.
and general appearance of q country
merchant, stepped into a wholesale
store in this city, and in a blind tone
and insinuating manner, inquired of
the proprietor if he sold gin by the
barrel, at what price and if it was a
good article. He would like to see a
sample. The proprietor drew a large
size tumbler nearly full. Country mer.
chant tasted.
"Ah!' said he as he smacked his
lips, with just a suspicion of delight.
that is good Gin, what can you let me
have barrel of that for p
Proprietor gave him the price,
"Remarkable good gin" said he,
taking another sip. That reminds
me of some gin l bought in 1888
and he went on with long story about
that particular gin, stopping occasion
ally to try that sample, until it was
all gone but a swallow. The story
finished, he tossed off the balance of
it, and, rcmarking that he liked the
gin and would come in and leave his
order after making few purchases
elsewhere, left the store
An hour or two afterwards. while
the proprietor was waiting upon some
customers, the gin-buyer returned. and
this time tackled one of the clerks
with
II have got to buy some gin to-day,
and II you have got first rate article,
l would like to sec a sample of it,,
Another large sized tumbler full was
forthcoming, and the old fellow tasted
1t. Then he turned it round. held if
up to the light, and tasted it again.
Then he smacked his lips, inquired
the price, and took another sip. Then
he remarked that it was very cold
weather, aud took a good swallow
Then he commented on the gin. and
indaiged IN a few reflections upon how
much pore gin cost now than it did

kept on drinking, and the clerk kent

He was such dignified man, AID was

as he was taking down the last swaL

to be forgotten. We find these feel
ings extant scarcely anywhere else on
the continent-not in Rome, nor at
Frankfort, not at Hamburg, and not
in Vienna. In Prussia, where at one
time no Jew was allowed to sleep with
in the walls of a city, or to give evil
dence in a court of law, they are held
in high respect, and have won their
way to peace and liberty; but, as all

GRAFTON, the singularity of which it

As the Jewish maidens said when they
wept by the waters of Babel, so the
Jewish residents in Paris, in February

They remember the sabbaths of Shar.
on, and the land of brooks of water
and they go for counsel to the nephew
Of that cOnqueror whose generals, in
1899, gave the last memorial of blood
to those devoted plains The strange
part ofthe matter is the fearless con
fession, in our day, of this hope, which
had been long left unuttered. Not
many years ago thousands of the Jews
in Russia bound themselves to a com
pact by an oath, that as soon as the
way was open for them to 90 up to
Jerusalem, they would Immediately GO
thither, and there spend their time in
fasting praying until the Lord should
send the Messiah We believe that
to nearly every congregation in the
Eastern districts of Europe these idea,
arc continually preached. and here L.

synagogucs, no doubt it is excluded
but they form only a fraction; for the
rest, suffering, insult, poverty, torture
and death have not diminished the

their race in France, without ianati

the topic with the Emperor, as one
likely to engage the attention Of the
world sooner or later, as a question
Of political cxigency. We confess tc

Many a learned and piouS man, once

burned. The only persons present
at the time were two children, one six
