The Jews IN RoME.-Among the
consequ nces of the annexation of
the Papal territory to the Kingdom
of Italy, is the elevation of the Jews
to the rank of citizens. By q decree
of Victor Emmanuel, all the inhabi-
tapts of this territory are now on an
equality with his other subjects. and
this has liberated the Jews from the
expressions to which they have always
been subjected in the Papal capital.
They were brought there in great
numbers after the destruction of Je-
ruselem, the days of the ancient Ro-
mans empire, and when the ascep-
dancy of the church began, they were
subjected to the most stringent regu-
lations and the severest privations.
They have still, however, remained
in the city. and in many instances
have become rich and prosperous,
they have ganerally presented the
the outward appearance only of pow
erty and wretchedness. They we're
compelled to live in q quarter of the
city specially designated for them,
and were locked up by the police in
their enclosure every night. They
were long deprived of nearly every
civil right and were for the most part
to be visited with every sort of cruel
ty which Christians might choose to
practice upon them. Their only se-
curity for centuries consisted in avoid
ing the notice alike of the authorities
and of the people of the city.

The Quitman Ga.) Banner tells
how "infants drowned a baby" in the
following manner: "a horrible affair
occurred on a plantation six miles
west of Quitman, on last Friday, by
which a colored infant, eighteen
months old, lost her life. The infant
aforesaid was left at the cabin, in
charge of an older sister, some FIVE
years of age, while the mother went
to work in a neighboring field. Soon
after the departure Of the mother, two
colored children, aged about six or
eight years, from another cabin on the
same plantation, put in an appearance,
and desired the little nurse to accom-
pany them in quest of blackberries
She told them she could not leave the
baby, but that if they (the visitors)
would take her (the baby to the well
and drown it, she would go with
them. They instantly seized the child,
one taking hold of its head and the
other its feet, carried it to the well
and gleefully cast it in. The mother
soon after received intelligence of the
affair, but, before she could extricate
the child from the water life was ex-
tinct. The children were arrested,
but Immediately discharged, as it was
evident, from their youth, that they
were not legally responsible for the
serious crime committed"
