Cruelty of Isabella.

The Jews were the favorite victims of
the InQuisition. When history $ hall
cease to ln as unreal as n fairy tale, and
when crime shall 40 longer find its de-
tenders, it will M related that "the
gentle and virtuons'' Isabella inflicted
heavier WOES upon the human race than
Mcsx.lina or Mary Tudor. In 1892, in
the dawn of new civilization that was
to overthrow Mt last the dark places of
cruelty, and crush popes and inquisitors
in general uprising Of the nation, Isa-
bella, the fo,n,lrcss Of the Spanish In
QUESTION, urged the expulsion Of the
Jews from Spain. No pity had shc for
the mothers who were to he torn
from their pr,~pcrousll"mcs to perish Of
hunger and thirst OH tho African shores,
who were to leap into the blue Mctlitcr-
rallcall to escape the insults Of their
cAptors, to scc their babes die in their
arms, their children sold into fatal
slavery no compassion for the throng
Of learned and famous mon who were to
founder in crowded sllip s or lang,lisll
with disease and starvation III foreign
land. 1t is not told that the bigotctl
queen ever felt any rcmorsc for her
cruel deeds, or was ever willing to soften
the woes she had inflicted nccdlcssly on
the most valuable portion Of her subjects.
At the famous meeting when Almrlmmcl,
the most eminent Of the Jews for sclol-
arship and virtue, begged on his knees
for pity for his people from the attentive
sovereign when he offered MI immense
ransom for their preservation, when
even Ferdinand hcsitatcd, it WAS the
queen who urged the relentless enforce
m"nt Of the decree, and tho stern Tor
qucr,atla flung Oh the table crucifix.
{" Sell him if you. will !" he cried, and
terrified the king into obedience t" tho

Russian s. Images,''

Turn in imagination, says the Church
of England Magazine, to those pictures
of the saints before which SO many Rus
Sims arc constantly bowling and crossing
themselves They hang in the corner of
every sitting room, whether of tho En-
pcror or of his poorest subjcct-some
times gaudy but smoke-dried; some
times brilliant with precious stones, sill
yer and gold. Often the background is
entirely covered with IN embossed sur
face of gold, leaving nothing to bc seen
but the face and hands of some angel OF
saint. The quantity of treasure lavish
c.l upon these "imagcs" is something
wonderful; it is not uncommon to see as
many ~ fifty diamonds set in one ctligy.

able, half starved and dirty as he was,
the beautiful Virgin took pity upon
him, and stretching out her hand and
arm she gave him II piccc Of bread from

A Pair Of Hands.
nv W1r.n FndRprsn~

Those gentle hands! All who can toll
What visions In my mem'ry dwell
While recall the magic spell
My happy boyhood knew 80 well?
Those fair, soft hands, all vcincd with blue,
And kissed by tho first breath drew,
Have t0iled for mo my whole life through,
And earth holds mono 80 good and true.
Dear hands! Whom youths best days arc told,
And love had boon betrayed for gold,
And friendships grasp grew weak and cold,
They gave the cl,angclcss clasp OF Old.
Those loving hands! 10 this late day
They hold some haunting gricfb al bay,
Aud scatter blessings round my way
Let me pursue what path may.
Those sacred hands! They guided mime
To fold themselves ia prayer divine,
They blessed me at the sacred sllriIe
And pointed where the bright stars Shine.
Those magic hands! When tears would drip
And hasty words my tongue let slip,
Ono gently Gliding fnscr-tip
Was laid upon my pouunS lip.
Ah had those hands been ever nigh
TO seal the lip and dry tho eye,
so many wrecks would not now lie
Along tho wasted years g0ue Ivy.
STILL blottcd though the record stands
or my career in many lands,
Time has but stronger wrought the bands
Which bind me to thot pair Of hands,
Whose hands! All! one az pure iii fana
As ever to Gods footstool came:
Yet question not. I'll ne'cr proclaim
10 Needless ears her holy name.
