A RHMARKABLE CoIyCIDEycE-if il real
" happened-is reported from Jersey City.
Two gentleman of that city exchanged over
coats by mistake, the other day. One of
them. MT. Martin, was confident he could
Identify his property, as he had a piece OF
Turkey rhubarb in one pocket, a pair OF
wooden gloves in another, and q pair of kid
gloves in still another. He met the other
gentleman, Mr.. Fielder, several days after,
In the Merchants hotel, New York, when
the latter said: "It is a little singular that
can't find my Turkey rhubarb that always
carry. / have piece here, but IL isn't the
one bought out in Ohio, several weeks
ago" Mr.. Martin asked to see IL, and then
exclaimed, "By Jove, that's my rhubarb; /
can tell the way / nibbled IL. You are the
man I've been looking for" and TO the as
constituent OF every one, they then and there
snapped coats. To complete the singular
condolences OF the affair, Mr.. Fielder also
had pair of kid and wooden gloves disposed
in his pockets as Mr.. Martins were. AMI
both coats were the same size, though not
alike Ia color or material. Mr.. Fielder re-
marked that his gloves came up more than
usual over his sleeves, and he thought his
arms must have shrunk. Mr.. Martins gloves
v ere larger than his.

A cURIous discussion ia now going on
in St. Louis between Presbyterian Cler-
gyman, aud Jewish Rabbi. One Of the
arguments of the Christian against the
Jew, is that his people have no history,
this to Say the least Of it. is untrue. The
Jews gave color and character to the So
cial and political history Of Asia Minor
for the first four hundred years of our era
Simeon bea Jochai. Akibhs, and Barchs
chebas, in the latter days Of the Roman
empire, occupied full share Of national
interest. The history OF Medecini, Philo-
sophy, Commerce, and Exchange, in the
medieval times, is inseperably connected
with the Jewish people, and cannot be di-
vorced from their being. In our day in
addition to those arts we have mentioned,
we NAV add Finance, and Music. 1t is high
time that the causeless and unchristian
prejudice against Jews should cease, they
are intended for some great people, else
their distinctive preservation among all
peo-'es, and every condition Of society,
and variation of climate would not be so
perfect.

THE Whisky RING PLAN.

From the first the Rings have been anx
ious to get Hayes in. Their first attemp
was to vote him in; the last to count him
n. They failed at the first, and now they
begin to see that they are likely to fail in
the second. The third plan is to filibuster
him in. That is to say, the Senate is to
talk against time, from the second We'd
nesday in February until the fourth Of
March, when the new House GENES into
being. This new House is to he called
together by the President, and the Repub-
icans claiming to control majority OF
the States will elect Governor HAYES
President. This is the plan now avowed
with some thin veil of words, by W. NJ
Grosvenor, editor OF the Anew York Pub.
lie" OF Mr.. Grosvenor himself, it is
scarcely necessary to say more than tha,
the evidence adduced in the whisky trials
At St. Louis, showed him to have received
money from members of the Ring, while
an editor there, and the only answer he
could make was, that he had given his note
for the money and expected to pay it! The
"Nation" made the caustic remark about
this, that ii showed how unfortunate i,
was ''for Reformers to have relations with
Rings"
1t is difficult to conceive Of more dan
gerous or dishonest scheme. 1t simply
means that the Republicans failing in ev-
cry other mode Of getting the Presidency,
shall steal it by means of Parliamentary
tilibustering. If Governor Hayes should
gain the Presidency in this way, would
there ever afterwards be any security OF
certainty about an election. Five times
during the last nine Presidential elections,
the Houses which were to count the cleo
toral vote have been of opposite politics.
Has it ever been proposed before tha,
either of them should, by tlibustering, re-.
verse the verdict Of the people when it did
not suit them? If this should be done once,
have We any guarantee that it will not be
done.again?Our Government will then be a,
the mercy Of either House of Congress
which chooses to cheat the people out of
their rights This idea is about as valua
BILE to society as the invention of a new
burglars jimmy, or Of a new style of brass
knuckles would be- 1t simply adds one to
the many known methods OF political ras-
cality. We wish Mr.. Grosvenor and his
Ring joy Of his scheme.
