JEWISH.

The Jewish Sabbath and Lord S
Day question is up before the Supe-
rior Criminal Court of Massachusetts,
the counsel for the Jew taking the
ground that as long as the Jew kept
what he conscientiously believed was
the Sabbath, which was from twelve
o'clock Friday night until the same
hour on Saturday night, he could not
be fined or imprisoned for keeping
open his shop on the day set apart. for
worship by the Christians-to-wit,
Sunday.
The New York correspondent of
the Boston Journal writes: "Some
time since / heard DR.. Raphael, the
leading Rabbi of this city, declaim to
his charge on the modern innovations
that were disturbing the peace. of
Israel. These innovations are taking
definite shape. An elegant Syna-
gogue is going up in this city that
will exceed all the temples of the
Jews in America 1t is to cost $780,
900, and will contain all the modern
improvements. The orthodox music
in the Synagogue is a rams horn. An
elegant organ, of great size and power,
is to lead the devotions in the new
temple. In the old, the men sit be-
low and the women in the gallery. In
the new, families are to sit together in
pews. The new repudiate the sani-
tary portion of Moses law The hog

poisonous. Not so a Cincinnati ham.

tend that had the Jews lived in Rus
STA instead of in Syria, the law about
making a fire on the Sabbath day
would not have existed. This new
reform society embraces some of
the most influential and wealthy of
the Jews in this city. Nor are the
orthodox Jews without their troubles.
In our missionary schools a great
many Jewish children are to be found
The library, the papers and the music
are too attractive, and their parents
cannot keep them away So Sabbath
schools on the Lords day are actually
kept in the Jewish synagogues and
taught by the rabbis, to keep the little
ones from being instructed about
Christ in the lessons of the new Tes-
lament"

PRESBYTERIAN.

Services at the Walnut Street Pres
byterian Church tomorrow at the
usual hours, 103 o'clock A., NJ, and Z
o'clockfP. NJ. 1,-'i 20 -
We understand that Prof. Beckel,
the distinguished organist of Phila-
delphia, has consented to preside at
the organ at the morning service of
the Walnut Street Church. The or
gan of this church is the finest in
strument in the city. Lovers of
sacred music will therefore take
notice.
The notice in our Thursday morn
ing's issue, concerning the annual
rentage of the pews in the above
church, was thought to have created
o wrong impression. It was said that
the amount of rentage was about the
same as last year. That was true so
far as the proceedings of that day
were concerned, but quite a large
number of persons were not present
then, some of whom have since taken,
and others who will yet rent pews.
The prospects of this church were
never more encouraging.
Among other things worthy of no
tice is that the ladies of the church
met this week, and resolved to fur
nish the parlors of the church. Their
expectation is to hold " sociables in
them, with the view of becoming bet
ter acquainted with each other, and
cultivating good will and christian
fellowship among themselves, and
such persons as may be pleased to
meet with them. AS the rooms will
belong to the church, no one but
member will feel free to attend these
sociables whenever held. b
UNION MovEMENT.-The two Pres
byterian Churches (New and Old
School in Manchester, Ohio, have
merged their organizations. Both
were feeble. The New School was
the Aseongest, but unable of itself to
sustain Gospel ministrations. The
. united Church sunders itself tempo
rarily from any higher ecclesiastical
relation until after the meeting of the
Assemblies of 1868. After that, it
will attach itself to whatever Presby-
terry may be chosen by a tWo-thirds
vote. Rev. Mr.. Tenny, of the New
School, and Rev. Mr.. Tolman, of the
Old, were present and advisory to the
measure. We learn from the Presby-
ter that Rev. VIM. Coleman, o. S.,
takes the pastoral charge.
DIR. Thomas, of Dayton, is spoken
of as the probable successor of the
late DIR. McMaster in the chair of
Didactic and Polemical Theology in
the Presbyterian Theological Semi
nary of the Northwest, at Chicago.

Mrs. Bennett was formerly resident in this vii

united with the church here in 1927. Having re,
moved from this place to Burlington, she united with

But all herr suilerings found at length their mp

The President Al 10 o'clock Monday
a NJ, 18th inst. sent communication
TO Secretary Stanton suspending, him
hon the Office Of Secretary Of War and
instructing him TO transfer all the
records books, &c. in his custody to
Gen. Grant The Secretary was at the
same time informed that Gen. Grant
had been empowered to act as Secreta-
nv Of War ad interim. A communica-
WAS at the same hour sent to Gen
Grant authorizing him to act as Score
tary Of War ad interim, and directing
him at once to enter upon the discharge
81 the duties Of that office. Shortly
after noon Mr.. Stanton sent q reply to
President, in which he denied that,
without bis consent, and without legal
oause, the Executive had any right un-
der the constitution and laws to sus-
pend him from Office Inasmnch, how
ever az the General commanding the
armies OF the United States had notified
him that he had accepted tho appoint
ment Of Secretary Of War ad interim,
the Secretary concluded by saying he
had no alternative but to submit, under
protest, TO superior force. Gen. Grant
has therefore assumed charge Of the
War Department and appeared at the
meeting Of the Cabinet on Monday, for
the purpose ofconsidering certain ques-
tons connected with the territory re-
Gently acquired from Russia.
The United States government paid
out. in the year 1864, $25,O00,00O for
the support Of our western military
posts, and in the year following the
amount was increased to $57 100000.
According TO present estimates the ex-
pcnses for the past year will reach the
sum of$l50,000, 600. This will doubtless
surprise many, for there are but few
who have given attention to the subject
OF an Indian war. Politicians are talk
ing loudly for determination, and the
burden Of taxation is being laid still
heavier on the people through their eff
forts.
