Among the engagements Of our foreign
trade just announced, is the sailing from the
Delaware river Of the bark OF Matthew Baird,
loaded Mt Wilmington with cars for a railroad
IN Brazil, which were manufactured at the
Harlan d Hollingsworth COmpany's Works
at that city. Although she is a vessel of
probably 600 tons capacity, yet we are told
she was unable to carry the whole Of the
consignment, and that another vessel will
also be loaded with them. 1t is not very long
ago that Brazil got all of her railway supplies
in England. Then she began buying locomo.
tiycs in this country, and recently a Pennsy.
vania firm carried off the successful bid for
railway iron for Brazilian railway. Now
she is buying our ears. 1t is quite probable
that Brazil will thus be soon running com
pletely American railway. -Phiid. Ledger.

Postmaster General Key was recently yisi.
ted by some postotlicc clerks who had been
discharged in western city, for the purpose
of having their grievances redrcsscd, and
alleged that the postmaster opposed the Ad.
ministration. Mr.. Key said to them The
postoilico is not u political institution. If it
be true, as you state, that the incumbent OPP.
poses thepoiicy OF the administration, itpt he
has right to do, and it is no cause Of re.
moyal unless, in his zeal and activity, he sink
the postmaster in the politician, II any one
whether he support or oppose the adminstrl
ton, uGglects his duty by being busy poll
tcian, or makes himself obnoxious by reason
of inconsideratc and foolish zeal, he ought to
be removed but if he attends faithfully to
his duties and makes good and acceptable
postmaster, he should not be removed, though
he see fit to oppose the administration.

The Israolites and Hotels.

The latest sensation at Saratoga Springs,
n. Y, is likely TO be more than local sen
saiion The proprietor Of the Grand Union
Hotel has decreed that no lsraelites shall be
permitted in future to stop at that establish
ment. This piece of information was vouch'
safed to Joseph Seligman, a well-known
Jewish banker, of New York, who, in accor'
dance with his custom, lately brought his
innily 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
tcmpts to draw distinction between what he
calls the Seligman class Of Jews and some
others, holding that the presence Of the form
err Injuries the business Of the hotel
Since the constitution Of the United States
was so 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 as it does from section
which insisted upon those amendments Tor
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 10 Gen
tiles also, who have their full proportion OF
lashy, vulgar III 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. 1t is proposed to call mass meet
ing of lsraclites IN 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-
nnce. 1t is strange and Notifying enough
that in this boosted era of civilization, en-.
lghtcnmcnt and iberality the bigoted and
heather spirit Of the dark ages should be
manifested in State which claims to be the
first in the Union towards the lsraelites, II
class of the community which has been char
acierized by intelligence and public spirit and
domestic virtues, and some Of whose leading
