Prosecutions of the Jews.

The powers of this world once more
turn their attention to the Jews. They
are to be re-regulated in Algeria e.,
their liberties, dne to NJ. Crimieux, are to
be restricted in Difference to the noble saw
age OF the country, to whom Jewish in
dustry and Jewish peacefulness are very
offensive. In a rather better spirit their
affairs are being taken up now in Prussia,
where, ever since 1S47, the cate of that
famous 'landtag," they have been divided
into synagogal communities with some
sort of shadowy autonomy. Several at
tempts to place their affairs on somewhat
more satisfactory basis have hitherto fail
ed under the auspices of the Cultus- Min
lister. This time, however, some recog-
nized authorities belonging to their own
body have been invited to report and to
propose plans for the amelioration of the
status qu0; and, as Herr Won Muhler will
probably require long rest after his re-
turn from the waters, some steps in adj
vance may probably be taken shortly. At
the same time Russian statesmen are de-
liberating on the future position of the
Jews in the Russian Empire Before 1851
no Jew was permitted to domicile in Cen
tral Russia, nor was he allowed to enter
Russian territory without a special per-
nit and whenever he wanted to stay
more than twenty-four hours at place,
he had to pay heavy price for the indul
gence. Since 1861 all Russia has been
opened to them, and the question of final
ly regulating their position in the Empire
proves to be one of no little difficulty. A
project of a law has already been laid be-
fore the Imperial Council, but no decis-
ion has been arrived at as yet The
Schleische Zeitung tells story appropos of
the debates there, which is not only apoc-
ryphal, but has done duty on at least a
dozen occasions, though it has never, per-
haps, been told so circumstantiallv.
When, in 1851, it became a question of
existence or non-eXistence with the Jews
in Poland, Count Bludow, the President
Of the Imperial Council, received, the day
before the question was to come on, dep
tatlon consisting of three Jewish bankers
from Warsaw. The Count had made it
condition that the deputation was to
speak as little as possible They arrived,
put small parcel upon the table, and de-
parted. Next day, at the Council, Blu
dow had the present Emperor at his
right hand. The councillors debated in
the warmest manner, but Bludow had not
spoken one word. His imperial neigh
Dor then said to him: well, Ivan Ivano-
wish, have you nothing to says" Where
upon Bludow rose, showed them the pack
ct, and pointed to an inscription upon it
to the following effect: ''15,000'' (rubles);
take and be silent" This" he said, 4
received that | should hold my tongue"
He then rose and pleaded their cause in
the warmest manner, and succeeded in
procuring facilities for them which they
had never even hoped for. The parcel,
however, went back, and formed the fund

lum at Warsaw-PaU 1lfaU Gazette.

When fortune seems our fos;
The better bred will push ahead

And those who shirk
Should not lament their doom,
But yield the play,
And clear the way,
That better men have room.

Grant as q Gentleman.

The article ssPolitics of Women" in
the August number of LippincoH has
this: i R1a ui
The best bred men in America are of
ficers int the regular army and navy
They have been taught to look up, to
reverence authority and to be respect
ful. It never leaves them; they be-
come the most dignified and the most
simple men in the community. Our
chief magistrate is very conspicuous
example of this. Bred asoldier, raised
by,a most aordinary series of events
to our Republican throne, and having
to contend with an invincible shyness,
it is only fair to say that our President
has the best manners in the world
Never too cordial, always sufficiently
so, never forgetting his station, and yet
never obtruding it, it would be difficult
to find man who has committed few
er solecisms, or who has, made more
people happy by his unaffected and
simple greeting than President Grant;
and yet heis man who has probably
never thought twice on the subject in
his life. His manners are the out-crop-
ping of training in school which
has produced the perfection of manners.

KeeD Straight Ahead

Pay no attention to slanderers and
gossip mongers. And let their back
billings die the death of neglect. What
is the use oflyins awake at nights, and
brooding over the remarks of some
false friend that run through your brain
like forked lightning? What's the use
of getting into a worry and a fret over
gossip that has been set atloat to your
disadvantage, by some meddlesome
busybody, who has more time than
character. These are things that can
not possibly injure you, unless indeed,
you take notice of them, and in COM
batting them give them character and
standing1-H what is said about you is
true, set yourself right at once. Ifit is
falseaet.it go for what it will fetch. II
a bee stfngs you, would you go to the
hive and destroy it? Would not u
thousand come upon you? 1t is wis
dom toSay little respecting the injuries
you have received. We are generally
losers in the end, if we stop to refute
all the backbitings we may hear by the
way. They are annoying, it is true,
but not dangerous, so long as we do
not stop to expostulate and scold. Our
characters are formed and sustained by
ourselves and hy our own actions and
purposes, and not by others. Let us
always bear in mind that calumniators
may usually be trusted to time, and
the slow but steady justice of public
opinion.

lady stood by the bedside of soldier

Wounded, pallid, grim and gaunt,
the tears chased each other over his
face, as he gave to her the messages OF

father, his brave womanly wife, his
boys, and the little brown home in the
green mountains.

said. Don't you feel as if all your suf-

A little white rose bloOmed all by her
self in nook in the hedge.

I pray, sir, you will leave me as lam.
/ breathe well enough, said the rose.
Iknow better, said the wind, and
rent the hedge as he passed on, and the
BOYS rushed through and made her
tremble with fear.
You are not well placed there, he
said, as he came by again, will give
you a better berth than that.
/ beg you will leave me as 1 am. ]
like my place we'll enough, if it were
not for the gap you made, said the rose.
But the wind would not listen; he
brcke her stem, and she fell to the
ground. Alel
Oh, you mustn't lie therel he cried, !
will carry you to the spot that will suit
you exactly. std
Nay, I entreat you to let me lie and
fade in this pleasant grass, said the rose,
beseechingly; but he caughther up and
whirled her on few yards, when her
petals were scattered and her leafless
steam was cast on the hedge.
How is this? exclaimed the wind.
How is it? This Is how lis, replied
the hedge; there are some folks that
! are never satisfied but when they are
meddling with other folks affairs; they
think nobody can be happy except In
their way; and you are one of them,
and this bare stem is specimen of your
work.

A member of the Yellowstone ex-
ploring expedition writes as follows
in private letter printed by the Cleve-
land Herald.
Up in the heart of the continent,
$500 feet above the sea, lies one Of the
loveliest bodies of cold blue water that
can be found in the world. Hemmed
in on every side by lava peaks and
long rolling benches densely covered
with fine timber, it stretches out its
fair bosom twenty-five miles to view
north and south, and varies in length
from five to fifteen miles. 1t is really,
/ presume. one of the most perfect
pieces of water composition. that the
earth affords. Below this lake, on the
river are two falls, one over 400 feet in
height, and the other some 1904 sheer
fanItleSs fall in the first case, unbroken
to its bottom. The canon below it,
over 1000 feet in depth, will always
be wonder to those who may have
the good fortune to follow in my steps.
The descent into this canon was made
by myself after it had been pronounc-
ed impossible"

Gen. Boynton,s Dnrky.

When Gen. Boynton was in the
South, a swarthy, good natured darky
became quite attached to that jolly sor
OF Mars and quill driver. The Gener
al, IN course of time, sent him to father
in Ohio. The old gent asked Sam if he
knew anything about horses and car
riages. Spec does, massa; was mas
sa-s ole coaceman.. dis chile was!'' He
was told to go to the barn and ''grease
up" the buggy, which he did. The
old gent then got in, but thought the
dasher rather sticky as he laid his hand
on it to assist him in getting in. But
what was his horror to find that Sam
had literally Hgreased up the buegy;''
for he had applied the wheel grease to
every part of 1.-THE wheels, the top,
sides, dasher and, shafts. His rage was
not cooled much by Sans remarking.
as he scra mbled out of the sticky con-
cern, "Golly massa, couldn't grease
dis yere harness, cause de grease it's
all done gonep' -N1T 5r,..
The same darkey was afterward ta-
ken to the village by Mrs. B., who
wishing to leave short message with
a lady friend, land not desiring to get
out of the carriage, told Sam to get out
and ring the bell. Sam got out and
stood in the road, peering and gazing
up into the air and all around the sides
of the house, with his great hands stuck
in his trowser's pockets. Mrs. B. ask
ed him what he was looking after.
Fob der Lord, missus; Idon't see no
bell. Reckon dey hasn't got any hands
on d s yere plantation" He was look
ing for a Southern plantation bell of
two-darkey power in Ohio! Mrs. B.
saw the joke, and directed him to take
hold of the little silver bell handle on
the side of the door, and pull it out.
Sam went right for it, got hold of it,
held on to it, put his big right foot
against the door post, gave it a tremen-
dous pull-when something broke, and
Sam landed in the middle Of, the dusty
road, excIaiming: "By Goliy! reckon
