discharged in western city, for the purpose
Of having their grievances redrcssed, and
alleged that the postmaster opposed the Ad.

be true, as you state, that the incumbent op.
poses thepolicy of the administration, ttat he
has right to do, aud it is no cause of re.
moyal unless, in his zeal and activity, he sink
the postmaster in the politician. If any one,

tieian, or makes himself obnoxious by reason
Of inconsderato and foolish zeal, he ought to

in the Campus all applicants for admission to
the college, hooting at them and annoying
them in u variety Of ways. Several of the

entire class joining in offensive serenade of
the tutors and pursuing course of insubordi
nation, were suspended by the Faculty.

Tho Isrnalite, and Hotels.

! The latest sensation at Saratoga Springs,
I N. Y, is likely to be more than local sen
1 saton. The proprietor Of the Grand Union
| Hotel has decreed that no lsraelites shall be
| permitted in future to stop at that establish
Inent. This piece Of information was voueh-
safed to Joseph Seligmnn, we'll known
Jewish banker, Of New York, who, in aecoor'
dance with his custom, lately brought his
family to the parlors and went to the manager
to make arrangements for rooms. The hotel
was built by the late A. I. Stewart, and is
now in the control of Judge Hilton, who at
tempts to draw a distinction between what he
calls the Segman class Of Jews aud some
others, holding that the presence Of the form
cr Injuries the business OF the hotel.
Since the constitution Of the United States
was 20 amended that neither race, color nor
previous condition was to be permitted TO
shut out any man from public accommoda'
tons of any kind, nothing has occurred so
remarkable rs this Saratoga hotel exclusion
of Jews, coming us il does from q section
which insisted upon those amendments for
the purpose of permitting men OF color to
have the same privileges at hotels and on
board railroads and steamboats, as any other
element of the population. The distinction
which Judge Hilton attempts to make between
different classes of Israelites applies TO Gen
Allt0 ul1tf WIN IhNt AlAttA lull IibBpihAVh vs.
nashy, vulgar ill.bred people, who frequent
springs and watering places at the North and
make themselves just as absurd and preten
tious as is possible for men OF any other race
or color. Ills proposed to call a mass meet
ing of Israelites ia New York to protest
against the conduct of the Saratoga hotel
proprietor. The better course would be to
leave the whole affair to public sentiment,
which can take but one view Of such intOler.

that in this boosted era of civilization, en-,
lightenmcnt and lberality the bigoted and
heather spirit of the dark ages should be
manifested in n State which claims to be the
