leave no doubt that it is safe and re-

The RABBIs IN CLEVELAND. = At a
meeting of the Rabbis of various cities
of the Union held at Cleveland, Ohio,
last week and the present week, Mem
phis was represented by DR.. Trska.
Rev. DR.. Lilienthal, from Cincinnati
laid before them the following preamble
and resolutions, which were unanimously
adopted, and ordered to be engrossed
and signed by all the members present:
At meeting of the Rabbis of the va
rious cities of the Union held in the city
of Cleveland, Ohio, from and after July
l3, in consideration of the religious COM
motion now agitating the public mind in
both hemispheres, in accordance with
the principles of Judaism, be it unani-
mously declared:
|. Because, with mistaken faith and
frmness, we believe in one indivisible
and eternal God, we also believe in Che
common fatherhood of God and the COM
mon brotherhood of men.
2. We glory in the sublime doctrine of
our religion, which teaches that the
righteous of all nations, without distinc-
ton of creed, will enjoy eternal life and
everlasting happiness.
3. The divine command, the most SUI
blime passage in the Bible, Thou shalt
love thy neighbor as thyself," extends to
the entire human family, without dis
tinction of either race or creed.
4. Civil and religious liberty, and hence
the separation of Church and State, are
the inalienable rights of men, and the
brightest gems in the Constitution of the
United States.
5. We love and revere this country as
our home and fatherland for us and our
children, and, therefore, consider it our
paramount duty to sustain and support
the Government, and so favor by all
means the system of free education,
leaving religious instruction to the care
of the various denominations.
6. We expect the universal elevation
and determination of tho human family
to be achieved by the natural means of
science, morality freedom, justice and
truth. lSigned
