The Persecution Of the Jews.

The Jews have been from all time an
exclusive people; pride of race and con-
tempt Of the Gentiles round about them
distinguished them already in the days
when they warred againstthe Amalekites.
They sincerely and truly believed that it
was not pleasing to Him that His children
should act like the peoples round about
them. Eighteen centuries of cruel, sense
less prosecutions, Of enforced exclusion
from intermixture with other nations, of
inter-marriage in small communities,
have intensified all the distinctive physi-
cal and mental features of the Jews, SO
that not only their good but their bad
qualities have become accentuated. Not
even the eighteenth century, SO ready to
coast on its enlightenment, had opened
the gates Of the Ghetto and accorded
civil liberties to people who, Of all peo-
pies, are peace-loying, law-abiding and
least likely to abuse these privileges.
The gates have now been thrown down,
the liberties freely granted, and it is
difficult to foretell what the Jew will be a
few centuries hence-indeed, if there will
be Jews left at all. They are far too as
similative, far too keen sighted, not to be
affected by and to recognize the propri-
ETY. inherent in, the cosmopolitan ten
denotes of the present day. For our
selves, we have no faith in the schemes
of enthusiasts portrayed by Daniel
Deronda and his friend Mordecai, in the
national restoration of the Jewish people,
and feel convinced that, were theattempt
made, it would result in mere exodus
of the scum of the population. What
has distinguished the Jewish people and
kept thea nation SO long is the fact
that thesg nationality is notrooted in the
land from which they have so long been
absent, but in the law, which they can
bear about with them everywhere. The
Jews are at present in transitional state.
It is commonly said it takes three gener-
ations to make a gentleman. It must
certainly take as long to obliterate all
the cruel memories of Christian oppress-
ion thatlinger among those whose grand
fathers remember the pressure Of disa.
bling laws.--ErcbG7age

A Queer Society.

Says a New York correspondent:
"Twelve members of the York Masonic
Lodge of this city organized last year
society which they styled The Mortal
Twelve of York. Its members are:
Frank J. Griffith, Assistant Superintend-
ent of the Delaware Lackawanna and
Western Railroad; William Scott,
Freight Agent of the New York and
New Haven Steamboat Company; Col.
]. B. Montgomery, Thomas Heating,
Harry Gurley, Edward Ganong, Robert
Wharton, Lewis w. Walton, Edwin A.
Quick, J. J. Shay, J. Hunt, and Fred
Kline. The initiatory fee is S., and the
annual dues are 81. No other members
can be admitted, and no person not
member can attend any of the meetings.
"There is to be a regular meeting of
the society every year on the evening
of the second Wednesday of October, at
which dinner is to be served. On the
death of any member, according to the
bylaws, special meeting must be
called, and the sole object shall be to
discuss the virtues of the deceased
member, be they many or few. Should
they be few, then each virtue is to be
discussed SO much the more thoroughly,
for his shortcomings are not to be men
toned. A rosewood case, divided into
twelve compartments, with cut glass
bottle in each compartment, containing
a quart Of sherry, and on the outside the
owners name, has been deposited in the
vault of safe deposit company, to be
fol of
tho society dies. On that occasion the
case is to be opened in the meeting, and
the wine in the bottle bearing the name
Of the departed member is to be drank
by the others in silence. Then the
bottle is to be returned to the case, to-
gether with the date of the owners
death and other information concerning
him.
"On each succeeding similar occasion
all of the bottles, the full and the empty,
are to be set before the surviving mem
bers, and the contents of the one bear
ing the name of the member last de-
ceased drunk in silence. It Is provided
in the bylaws that the last surviving
member, on the death of his solitary as
sociate, should discuss by himself the
virtues of the departed man, and drink
of the wine in the bottle bearing his
name, 'and he shall thereafter each sue
ceeding year, on the date set apart for
the annual meeting, have the box and
contents placed before him, and then
and there shall partake of the remaining
bottle or bottles as far as his Judgment
allows or dictates, until the same shall,
if possible, be disposed of.
"The twelfth man is enjoined, before
his death, to bequeathe the case, its con-
tents, copy of the society's bylaws,
and synopsis of its history, to his heir,
or any other person as he may feel dis
posed, enjoining him to guard and
hand down the same to succeeding gen
erationa."

Sleep.

There is no danger of wearing this
subject threadbare, for people are be
ginning to wake up to the fact that
plenty Of sleep is requisite to health,
particularly in the case Of brain workers.
The more sleep the brain gets the better
it does the brain work. All great brain
workers have been great sleepeTs. Sin
Walter Scott could never do with less
than ten hours. A fool may want eight
hours, as George III. said, but philos-
opher wants nine. The men who have
been the greatest generals are the men
who could sleep at viii. Thus it was
with both Wellington and Napoleon.
The greatest speakers IN the House Of
Commons have been the men who go to
sleep there as much as they like. This
explained the iuvenility Of the aged
Palmerston. Sleep is In many cases the
best of medicines. A friend told me
that he treated himself for fever. He
went to bed with large pitcher Of
lemonade by his side. He drank and
slept, slept and drank, till he drank and
slept himself well again. When you
take to your bed get all the sleep you
