The Day of Atanement.

Sunday eve at sunset was the commencement
of the Great Day of Atonement of Israel. 1t is
called "Ycm Kiber and is the great day of
humiliation and prayer before the Lord. Du-
ring the whole of its continuance, from sunset
till sunset, the Israelites abstain from food and
drink, and all earthly enjoyments, and perform no
manner of labor, just as on the weekly Sabbath.
The principal object of the day is, to think seri-
ously over their past conduct, and offer up to
God contrite spirit for their manifold trans
gressions. If they have offended their neigh
bors they shall satisfy him, before they ask
forgiveness of the Lord. 1t is founded ON the
passage in Lev. xvi, %, "a:
And this shall be q statute forever unto you,
that in the seventh month, on the tenth day OF
the month, we shall fast and do no work at all.
And this shall be an everlasting statute unto
you, to make atonement for the children of Is
rael, for all their sins, once year."
Divine service in accordance with the Jewish
rites, will be held at Turner'S Hall. Julius
Ochs, ESQ, will officiate as minister.

KukIux i'm Kentucky.

BY private letter from friend we learn that
much excitement has occurred at jamestown,
Kentucky, by the killing of one and the wound
ing of another United States regular. He tells
the story thus:
"a man by the name of Coffee was known as
Kuklux, together with others in the neghbor-
hood. Summons TO attend the United States
Court at Louisville were issued for n number of
them. The United States Assistant Marshal of
Kentucky having served some of the sum
mons on others, at night surrounded tie
house of Coffee with a posse Of regulars and ar
nounced his name, office and business, where
upon those in the house commenced firing with
the result as above stated. In the mean while,
Mrs. Coffee ran into the loft and gavethe alarm,
which was answered from the neghborhood.
The Marshal retired without returning the
fire, leaving the dead man behind.
Coffee has since been arrested and is in Gus
tody.
The people in Russell county do not deny the
existence o. KukluX.
