Henry Ward Beecher devoted his last Sun
day evenings sermon in Brooklyn to the
muss stirred up between A. T. Stewards exc.
cutor, Judge Hilton, and the Jews, and it
mus, be conceded that the noted Brooklyn d..
vine treated the case sensibly and judlclous-
ly. He is thus reported:
Mr.. Beecher said thst he became intimately
acquainted with Mr.. Seligman at the Twin
Mountain house, and knew him well, and
knew him to be an estimable gentlemen IN
every sense Of the word. The Jews" formed
large portion OF our community and he
must say they were not only excellent and
thrifty citizens but exceptionally law.abiding
people He considered that q great insult
had been put upon them, and it had shocked
intelligent and refined people, those whose
opinions were worthy of respect. The Is.
raelites of the country might rest assured
that they are held in great respect by their
Christian fellow-citlzens. He further re.
marked that they had never stolen $1,000,
coo from the city, and endeavored to make
terms in Jail. Of all people they were the
last that should have beer insulted. He did
no. think 1t good sign 70 see aman who had
inherited his money cast an insult upon O
man who had made his estates by honest and
honorable industry. In the end he thought
good would come of the insult and he would
advise them not to hold public meeting OF

An article in the Gdlary on dreams, by Mr.,

suits of great number of experiments are
held to sustain the following facts: Speak.

or playing or musical instruments induces
dreams OF dead friends, funerals, and the
like. WorrisOme dreams are often caused by
sleeping with the arms over the head. Mr..
Lewis does not believe that somnambulism is
often caused by weight of trouble on the
mind, and he cOmbats the idea that any great
proportion of dreams are the result OF making
trouble. He thus describes experiments show

"Addttion, Division and silence" Telling
f' Tales.


Mr.. w. II. Kenble, a famous Pennsy lvanla
political ring.master OF the republican per
suasion, has let loose his tongue upon Hayes S
policy of divorciag otfce.holders from party
politics. He tells in very plain terms what
Pennsylvania politicians did to save Ohio and
other states for Hayes. He says: "Ohio was
saved only by President Hayes and his friends
appealing TO us for money to put into the
contest. Secretary Sherman and Gov. DENIM.
son wrote the most importunate letters to US
for money. ** We made assess
ments here in Philadelphia on the Office
holders, every dollar Of which was sent to
Ohio, in addition to other large amounts sent
there, and some Of which was sent directly 10
President Hayes, himself"
Kemble supposes the money thus raised
and sent was used for political purposes, as
any other use of it would have been breach
of trust. He slso mentions former appeals
upon Pennsylvania TO pull Hayes through
elections in Ohio, and does not take kindly TO
the Presidents doctrines ana methods of civil
service reform. He regards the policy as an
afterthought which works particular dis
tress upon Pennsylvania republicans-espoc-
Tally as Pennsylvania money carried Ohio in
October, in which result everything was at
stake, as, had that state been lost in october,
"there would have been Tilden whirlwind
in November that would have swept not only
Ohio, but Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Nevada,
Oregon and California" Kemble was fainil-
iarly known in politics as the addition, d.
vision and silence" man. He has now for
feited his claim TO the virtue implied by the
last member of this political trinity. He has
spoken, and is apparently willing and anx-
nous to tell all he knows about pulling Hayes
through.-St. Louis Republican.

For many years to come most Americans must gain their chief knowledge of the masterpieces Of pMnting through engravings Many of tue most celebrated engrayings of great pictures have now becoule rare and cost iy, and are only to be seen in public gal tories and large private collections, Here tbe function of the iieiiotype Process begins: IL comes 10 ,he aid of srt, mul- pl;es l!,esc costly and beautiful works, and brings them within easy reach of the whole public.
 The publishers call these reproduc- Gions IIeliotype engravings, and they nroduce ihen on thick sheet of hand some paper of Il uniform size of nineteen by twenly four inches, and at uniform ories of ane dollar each. This low prlec is but one of the cardinal excclences of shis enterprise. These reproductions sustain most favorably the test of care fnl comparison with the original engra' wings from which they are copied. Of course accuracy of outline was to be eX pecled from he nature of the process, as well as n preservation of the general characteristics of the picture; but such perfection of work was hardly to be eX- pecLed 4S )s shown Tn the more delicate eontraSlS Of light apd shade which Coll siitpte so !ppch of tue expression and ef- feet of aa engraving. If one of these dollar heliptypes were framed and hasg upon the wall it would not be easy for an expert in engruving-- 1 to distinguish it from steel or copper ktlaie print.
 The publishers seem to be alive to the importance of this undertaking. They | have established special agencies in each large city and town in all the Northern aud Western states, every town with population ot over 10000 inhabitants be- ing provided with heliotype gallery, where the pictures can be seen and bought Theec arrangements are usual ly made with one of the most prominent I}ookstoFes in the town.
