The Jews are treated outrageonsly in
Poland, country which was once most
favorable to them. The latest Russian
ukase in regard to them, forbids them
to wear the national Jewish costume.
(long gowns. caps and ringlets,) and even
contains prescriptions Of the costume
they must substitute for it, viz: long
coat, covering the knees, and loose
trowsers tucked inside the boots. II
free Jews prefer the German style oi
dress they may use it, but they must
shave their ohins quite bare. Imprisor-
ment is the penalty awaiting those who
disobey. Jewesses must cover their
heads with caps, and only such as ME
bald, or have cutaneons diseases may
wear perukes, and the police aro actually
empowered to examine Jewesses and see
whether..or not they wear false hair. The
reason Of this singular ukase. which re-
minds one of tue days of Richard I,
and John in England, and Of Ferdinand
and Isabella in Spain, is that German
EJews acted ;patriotically in the lnte
f'ranoo-Prnssian war, and the Russian
Emperor believes that the common cos.
tune OF Christians and Jews in Ger.
many led to this satisfactory result. Sc
he will have all persons dress alike in his
dominions, 80 that when war comes they
may act alike.
