The Jewish cemetery lies not far from the syna-
gogue in the sweep made by Kay street where it
joins Touro In this quiet spot twelve Jewish
families lie buried, and as we stood beneath tho
trees that spread protecting arms over the graves,
Longfellow's poem, written after visit 10 this
cemetery, came most vividly to mind One verse
especially, as we looked at the neatly kept flower
beds the turf SO soft and well cared for the buds
that bloomed above the dead, came to our lips:
Gone are the living, butthe dead remain
And not neglected, for hand unseen,
Scattering its bounty like summer rain,
Still keeps their graves and memory green.
In the inoosure are two graves so near each other
that as you stand by one your shadow falls upon
the other within them sleep two lovers, separated
Touro and Catherine Hays were cousins, and
among the Jews it is q crime for those so near of
kin to marry. True to the religion and traditions
OF their race, they separated never TO meet
ngain, although they lived to be old people.
Neither of them married, content with the mom-
ory of their love and the hearing of each others
welfare from mutual friends. They both died In
January, 1864, when he was 70 years Of age and
Catherine was n. His name was the last word she
uttered, and In his deirium before death called
him he talked of walking in beautiful garden
with Catherine Hays, his first and only love. Jn.
dah Tuoro, however, did not lot disappointment
embitcr his life for he spent it in active benevo-
lcnce, and from fund left by him the means are
provided to keep the cemetery in order. 1t is told
of him that he built churches In New Orleans for
all sects, oven contributing toward the erection OF

THE LETTER-oARRIERs
Reviewed and Instructed by city Pos
nnster Anger Yesterday.


City Postmaster Anger yesterday inspected tho
letter carriers, and delivered short but very
sensible address to them. Tho review was held
for the purpose Of informing the new men about
the system which goes into effect october 1, and
which will promote a much earlier delivery of the
mails throughout the city. The men were under
tho direction of Mr.. Rldgely, the acting superln-
tepdent of delivery, in the absence of Mr.. Bell.
The carriers, numbering seventy Ave. presented q
very fine appearance, Postmaster Ainger taking
much pride in the personnei of his force. Mr..
Ainger having been introduced by Mr.. Ridgely,
explained to the men the workings of the new sys-
tenn. He complimented them OH their appearance,
and told them that he was confident they could
accomplish the work required OF them, but at the
snlno time he reminded them that
II WAS A NEW AND DIFFICULT TASK.
To the new carriers he gave some special advice;
He gave them counsel as to their duties and
warned them not to drink TO excess. :" / am not,
he said, " temperance fanatic, but the character
| Of this service Ia such that no man can perform
| 1t with his brains muddled with drink. Drunk
enness in uniform, is, of course an objectionable
ofense." In concluding his remarks Mr.. Anger
thanked the carriers for their fidelity during the
past year, saying that 1t was hardly possible fol
the service 10 have been performed with less COM
plalnt, and expressing qualification at the passage
| of the law increasing the pay of carriers. Mr.
| Aingcr's remarks were received with demonstra-
| tive applause by tho carriers. When he closed
there was call for Mr.. George H. Plant, the chief
clerk of the oiice, who, in response, spoke briefly
advising the old carriers to extend aid to the
| ones. The assembly was then dismissed
