CURED at Pressburg and Blumenthal, in
Hungary, where the rioters after being
dispersed by the military boosted that their
next attack upon the Hebrews would be
more effective and memorable. The Queen
ofSpain ought to send to Pressburg and
Bluementhal some copies of King Alfonso's
address offering welcome and an asylum
in Spain to prescribed Hebrews from other
lands. When that country prosecuted Its
Jewish population in centuries gone by, it
banished its own commercial enterprise.

LATE writer, in one of our popular
musical magazines strongly advocates con
gregational singing in the churches, as
contradistinguisheds from high, artistic
choral melody. He enjoins, singing 'swith
the spirit and tae understanding" rether
than in the high, artistic strains of modern
musical cultivation. He asks, what do we
want to express by music in Worship, and
how should we express it? And answers:
1--WE should express all the emotions of
our hearts towards our heavenly Father,
our 8 gratitude, our alteration, our
solemn exultation in him and his
relation to US, our contrition and
our faith. We should SO express these sol
emn thoughts that all who might hear, of
whatever nation, however ignorant, of our
words, should feel them and should realize
their import and our earnestness. Nothing
is too good, too beautiful,too noble for our
worship. We should have our hearts
silently lifted up in the utterance of the
gifted singer, in the splendid voices of the
choir, in the solemn roll of the organ. But,
above all, we should lift up our own voices,
and in mighty tones utter our own praise
and ever. How shall we do it? Shall we
sit in our seats and glance over tie hymn,
and hum the tune with our half-closed lips,
or trust to vague idea of harmony and
make up an alto, or tenor, Or bass to suit
OUT own conception, regardless of what
the organ and choir may be doing? No
body should be prohibited from doing
their part. We want their best. More
than that, God wants their best. There
are scarcely any, old or young. who can

sure never ceases. The prominent objects
and men of to-day are jostled aside to-
morrow. A. T. Stewart, the great New
York merchant, with his wealth Of seventy
or hundred million dollars, for number
of years filed large space in the public
eye. But he passed away, leaving his
wealth to others, and was not permitted
even the peaceful quietude of the tomb, his
accumulated wealth left behind offering a
temptation to thieves and robbers. The
firm of A. T. Stewart & Co. has gone out of
existence, and his wealth has passed into
other hands. The great buildings erected by
him have been changed in their internal
structure, and devoted to other purposes
than those for which they were originally
designed, other signs with other names ap-
pear upon them, and A. T. Stewart & Co.
will no longer be known in the marts of
trade. How forcibly this illustrates the in
stability Of human affairs, and what pass
ing shadows are all human existences, and
how soon colossal, accumulated fortunes
crumble away, and leave the hands of the
successful accumulators to go into the po
session of others. How forcible the assertion,
in view of earth's constant Kaleidoscope
transformations that ''there is nothing
sta BILE but change" This is at once a tru-
ism and solecism, emphasizing the emp
tiness of all sublunary affairs, and leading
the mind on to a contemplation of
that realm beyond, not SUBJ
iect to the fortuitous transformations,
Of passing, short-lived human earthly ex-
istence. The greatest good which A. T.
Stewart has done by life of toll, and the
accumulation of millions is, in his remark
able and short lived career, to furnish
both text and a sermon for the consider
alton of the thoughtful.
EARTHLY care, heavenly blessing"
was the theme of consolatory
disquisition some years ago by Christian
author. Sentiment and thought are akin in
persons of various religiot views, but a
high sense Of morality often makes them,
at least correlated in ethical sentiment
and feeling. Recently the Rev. Arnold
Levy. Rabbi of the Congregation Beth
Israel Bikur Cholim, worshiping on
Chrystie street in New York city, preached
on the inner and outer world of mar
founding his discourse on the twenty
fourth chapter of the third book of Moses,
according to the Hebrew Bible. He
brought out the thought that
the WEAKNESS of the spirit
superinduced by earthly cares,
alone influence some minds to indulge in
national reflections upon the great futur-
ity before Us. Said the preacher: ''With
the most unsentimental of us-those who
care but little for the practice of religious
exercises and who are by nature indisposed
to serious contemplation presume, nay,
know, there comes time when the tired
