JEWISH EMIGRATION FROM
RUSSIA.


A meeting of the "Alliance lsrGelite
Unionists," held at Berlin, under the
presidency of Mr. A. Cremieux, of Paris,
took into consideration the distress now
prevailing among the Israelites of western
Russia. 1t was proposed to provide means
for their removal to America, and reHO-
luton was adopted expressing the hope
that the Hebrews in America would Co
operate with their brethren in Europe,
with their accustomed hberality, in reliev-
inc this distress. The Jewish papers dis
courage the project. One of them says
that emigration will not subserve the
cause the benevolent have IN view. That
can best be served by sending them the
means to exist for a short time through
the assistance afforded them, and in the
ensuing spring, they will be able to take
| care of themselves.
The Israelite, of Mayence, has letter
from DR.. Ruff, chairman of the relief
committee, at Memem, stating that the
| famine itself has ceased, but it has left
great number of widows and orphans,
whose cases will be best met by immedt
ate relief where they are until they car
support themselves. DR.. Ruff observes
at is a remarkable fact that death com
mitted the greatest ravages among thu
adult male population, arising, in grea
measure, from their beholding their wiye
and children crying for food, which they
could not supply. This, in many cases
produced typhoid form of disease, which
deprived them of life, leaving hundreds o
widows and orphans"

WhaI,S wanted

ST. PAUL, Dec. Late Red River ad-
vices says the Convention assembled at
Fort Garry on Nov. 1G, to discuss
the following propositions. First, to com
promise with Gov. McDOugall; second,
on independent republic; third, annexa-
ton to the United State fourth, a colony
under Great Britain; fifth, a return to the
Hudson Bay company rule.
SO far the French half breeds only
have taken up arms; the English and
Scotch half breeds are yet undecided
4 Separate Government or Annexa-
ton TO the United states.
A letter from Winnipeg to the st. Paul
Pioneer, dated Nov. 10, says it was be
lieved that nothing would be agreed upon
at the convention the next day. Mean
time. the French half-breeds are masters OF
the situation, and more numerous than all
others combined, and have number of more
than ordinary ability. The French and
Scotch would probably agree TO unite with
the French half-breeds in establishing 6
colony under England, while the French
half-breeds at present seem determined tc
have separate government or annexation
TO the United States, or as the last resort
a compromise with McDougall. The Penn
bino road is guarded by large number o
men.
Indian AuxiIiarics wanted.
1t was said that if war takes place, boil
parties talk of calling aid from the north
western Indian tribes, even the Sioux
which would demoralize all parties.
