of this nature by the city, and believe
them right and just in accordance with
usage and presidents; provided there is an
urgent necessity for it and no lot specula-
tons and family preferences are INDUCED
in, and in this case in particular, since
your correspondent asserted, that the origi-
nal ground was granted to the Hebrews of
this city. Now, let us investigate little
and see if the writer of the 18th is entirely
correct
In the first place, when, in 1866, new
congregation was formed, who were also
Hebrews of this city, together with an
other and larger established one, they
were informed by the congregations pre-
tending to have control OF the ground,
and out of malicious motives, that after a
certain day and month in 1867 they
would no longer be permitted to enter this
ground, except by permission aud pay
ment Was this just? and did this not
entail hardship on their brethren -
Furthermore, by the exclusion of these
two congregations, numbering some sixty
or seventy families, ought it not to have
increased the chances of the ground hold
ing cut for an indefinite and long period
without an addition. But this could not
be- On saving and economizing they did
not think. They went Immediately to
work, divided the vacant ground into large
family lots, and enclosed them.
Is the city of Richmond able to give
away its land for family lots ? Further
more when Hebrews not belonging to these
congregations, and who have not had the
fortune to smuggle by appointment any OF
their members-and moreover such as be-
long to the committee of that getty of the
Dead" into the City Council-they are
charged the sum of twenty dollars for q
grave, if an antiquated notion of vene-
ration the relatives of the deceased prefer
to bury them in that consecrated spot.
While we maintain it just and right that
the ground should be placed at the dispo-
sal of the city when actually necessary for
such purposes, yet we think it wrong to
give it for speculation, or to the exclusion
of Others of the same faith.

what laudable strain 10 explaining, that in
1916 the present burying- ground was do
mated to the Hebrews of this city, and that
thirty years thereafter another congrega-
ton was formed with steady increase of
population since, and furthermore, that in
consequence of the rebellion the grounds
was considerably filed up, and particular
ly on account of the latter he justifies the
granting Of additional space.

The Gld.FashiOned Mother.

Thank God! some of us nave an
old-fashioned mother. Not woman
of the period, enamcled and painted,
with her great chignOn, her curI5 and
hustle; whose white, jeweled hands
never have felt the clasp OF baby fin
gers but a dear rold-fashioned, sweet
voiced mother, with eyes in whose
clear depths the love light shone,
and brown hair threaded with silver,
lying smooth upon her faded cheek.
Those dear hands worn with toll,
gently guided our totteriDg steps in
childhood, and smoOtheI our pillows
in sickness even reaching out TO us
in yeaTning tenderness, when her
spirit was baptized In the peariy
spray of the river. Blessed is the
memory of an oId-fashiOncd mother.
1t floats TO US now, like the beautiful
perfume of some woodland biOssC rs.
The music Of other voices may be
lost, but the enhancing memory Of
hers will echo in our souls forever.
Other faces will fade away and be
forgotten, but hers will shine on un-
til the light from heavens portals
shall glorlfy our own. " hen IN me
fitful paUses of busy life our feet
wander back to the old homestead,
and, crossing the weli-wOrn thrcsh-
old, stand once more in the low,
quaint room, 50 haiIowed by her
presence. how the feeling of childish
innocence ana dependence comes
over us, and we kneel down in the
molten sunshine. streaming through
the western wiudow-just where,
long years ago, we knelt by our
mothers knee, lispiug Our Father. ,
How many times when the tempteT
lures Us on has the memory Of those
sacred hours, that mothers words,
her faith and prayers, saved US frOm
plunging into the deep abyss Of sin /!
Years have filed great drifts between
her and us, but they have not hid
den from our sight the glory Of her
pure, unseish love.
