Condition of the Tsraelites CT
Palestine.

To the Editor Of tho New York Times
A few days since thereappearsd par
agraph in your estimable Journal relating
| to Jewish Rabbi Rs having come sll the
way from Palestine TO lay the grievances
of his people, who are said to be euffsring Z
oppression at the hands Of the Ottoman
Government, and asking the aid and pro-
lection Of the United States. AS there is
an intimatiOn, also, that there might
possibly be- an organized effort on the
psrt of the Israelites in their country to
further the enterprise, will you permit
me to offer few remarks on the subject :?
Ever since the fret war Of Ihdepend-
ence, America has been regarded as the
champion OF liberty, and more than ever
since the guelling OF the recent rebellion.
Besce, even natioDalitigs on the other
side Of the globe sre longing to Eestle
under the wing of the eagle OF liberty,
which they imagine OveTshadows the re-
motest ends of the earth. Heretofore,
those who have been in state Of revo-
luton, like Greece, Poland, Hungary,
etc have looked Go America for aid and
sympathy; but now, because the lands
in which their lot has been cast are not
teeming With publ g enterprise and spid
prosperity ike Americ9, communities
who are suffering are induced to make
similar appeals. 0tTlE7U ntEFgH#f
The last application OF tie United
States Government is from a Jewish
r lbbi from jerusalem, who is anxious
to secure American protection OF the
Sultan in the Turkish dumInions, viz,
the Jews Of Palestine.
or late the question Of the oppression
of the subjects OF the Porte, civil and re.
ligious, has been thoroughly ventilated,
both in Europe and America, aud the
simple truth has repeatedly thWarted the
Vaccinations OF diplomRtists aud the
schemes of Individual speculation. We
need only refer to the recent expose In
the Cretan affair, which must be fresh
in the mind OF the public. The spirit Of
civilization and superiority of wealth
have imbued the hesrts OF the Chief
Magistrate Of the Uaited States and the
people with q generous sympathy. How
often have their loaded ships sailed from
these shores TO the relief OF the destitute
and suffsringl Bur for Jewish Rsbbi
OF any other delegate from foreign land
to ask the United States Government to
enthrone q Consul ss ruler over any por,
ton OF the subjects of the Sultan, or OF
any other sovereign, is simply preposter-
Gus. Fga
The Israelites OF Turkey should be the
last to murmur against the Government
under which they live for while the
other subjsc!s of thes Porte have been
conquered they have flsd TO Turkey and
there found refuge from prosecutions Ia q
Catholic land which threatened to Rnni-
hilate them.

liberty and equality which pervades the
world, and Jews and Gentiles, Turks and

these appeals to freedom are but the

Isrselites of Turkey Is the fault Of the

coo In Palestine and $50, 600 in the whole

rope and America, they are ignorant sDd
bigoted and treacberous. IL the friends,

people are truly desirous Of doing them
practical good, they should leave imsgin-
ary grievances aside, and st once en-

they will also second the efforts OF the

extends TO all the varied naiionslities
