without the enameled headed Clown, the

The Herzegovinian Chief,

ICettinge, Nov. Is. correspondence OF the Lon
don Times.
1t would seem to be probable that the
Herzegovina insurrection has at length
found its head, and that man capable
of welding the hitherto disunited forces
has come to the front. The Chief of
Piva, Lazzaro Socica, has shown, in
various operations, an innate military
capacity and variety OF resources which,
together with what was already known
here Of his energy and devotion to the
liberation Of his country, as well as a
certain magnetic enthusiasm which gives
him absolute control over his followers !,
entitle him to the first place among all
the chiefs.
He is a young man of considerable
means for this country, almost the only
Chris istian landed proprietor Of the noun
tain country, about Dormitor, and for
several years exiied and a resident Of
Montenegro. His possession of real
thist section the Turks have never been
able to profit by rhattspeciesof property,
being unable to- collect their rents, so
that the lands Of Socica were not worth
taking.
He commenced his operations ON a.
small scale in the raids and attacks OF
the mountain country about .Piva, and
then attacked ana destroyed the smaller
blockhouses in that section, finally cap
turing all except the fortress OF Goran-
sko. which was artillery. The last ia.
ken, that Of Bezoue, was garrisoned by
one hundred and five men, and was
taken by bit Of native engineering

able to penetrate this logs-until it was
in contact with the wall of the block
house, when he began mining the wall
and the garrison Immediately surren'

to show them that the insurge nts were
capable of treating their adversaries
with humanity.

The Hebrew College.

ne, Executlve Board OF the Union OF
American Hebrew Congregations held
its regular meeting yesterday afternoon
in the vestry of the Temple, at the cor
ner of Mound and Eighth streets.
The following congregations have
Joined the Union since the last meeting
of the Board: Bnai Sholem, Chicago,
ILL.,; Progress Association, Oil City,
Penn; Bnai Zion, Titusville, Penn. /;
Beth I'll, Helena, Ark; Anshi Chesed,
Bay City, Missouri; Beth Israel, Peoria,
Ill. ......... .........
The following was read ana adopted:
To the Executive Board of the Union of
American Hebrew Congregations:
GENTLEMEN: l have the pleasure to
report to you that the sum OF $64. 900 thus
far has been obtained as donations to
the sinking fund OF the Hebrew Union
College, $l3, ,243 80 of which have already
been paid, and the balance is now avaii-
able. AS many Of the donations have
been made ON the condition that they
are only to be binding If the sum of $50,
600 is obtained, that sum being now Sc
cured, l beg you to instruct the Secretary
to make out the receipts tor the various
amounts as donated, and collect them as
speedily as possible, for the college hav-
| ing been opened in anticipation of the
above funds 1t Is essential that the
money should be Immediately sent In
and converted into fye-twenty United
States bonds In accordance with our
constitution. Besides the sum afore-
stated, the sum Of 1000 has been SUB
scribed as annual contributions, but
which ceases at the death or the donors,
and can therefore not be calculated up
on as a fixed annual income.
The trainers OF our Constitution have
thought that thesum of $160, ,0OU would be
ample for a sinking fund and a College
building, but experience shows that
that sum will not be sufficient. The sum
of at least 100000 is required in order
to make the Hebrew Union College what
it should be, and as money was never
lacking In Israel when the acts of chari-
ty and the requirements OF education
demanded it am very hopeful that that
sum, with proper exertion, will be OBJ
tanned within short space of time.
Requesting the continuance of your
active cooperation, and also the active
aid of every lsraeiite who desires to see
his race and mankind at large enlight-
sned in every science within the reach
OF the human intellect, l am, your obe-
dient servant, .s
