Esther Next Week.

The posters and small bills are out
for the cantata of Esther" to be given
in Music hall, next Tuesday, Thursday
and Friday evenings, May % and 81
and June | These and the advertise
ment in another column will give full
particulars. The scenery being paint
ed by Mr.. Daley represents the kings
gate, Haman's residence, and the inte-
rior of the palace and the throne. The
entertainment promises to be IL great
success, and to eclipse anything that
has been given on the local stage for
some time.
\ few facts connected with the his
tory of the book of Esther will not he
amiss in this connection. The book is
called "Megillah Esther" or "The Vol
ume of Esther" "A Persian word, being
that which was given at the Persian
court to Hadassah, the daughter of
Abihail, and it seems to mean the plan
ct Venus. The author of the book is
unknown, but, among others, it has
been ascribed to Ezra and to MOrdecai
himself. The evidences point strongly
to MOrdecai as the author, and that the
period was about the end of the reign
of Nerxes, who is supposed to he the
Ahasuerus of the book, or the begin
ming of that of his son, not long before
b. G.. 40. The time covered by the
narrative is about twenty years, from
465 to 40. The fact that the book
does not contain the name of God dis
tressed the Jews, which omission the
Jewish commentators accounted for by
saying that it was to he read by heath
Ell. The book, however, was highly
valued by the Jews, so much So that
Maimonides, one of the most famous OF
their learned men, said that in the days
of the Messiah all the books of the old
Testament would pass away except the
Pentateuch and Esther. The jew,
read the book through in the syna,
gogues at the great annual feast of tn,
Purim, which is said to have beeI
instituted in commemOra ton of tn,
events narrated III the book. Their,
were some curious Jewish customs re.
corded in the book. At the mention
of the name of Hannah, it used to b,

verses 70 of chapter tx, the Jewisl
scribes write the names of Hannah
luckless sons, not one after another
but in three perpendicular rows, tw,
of three and one of four, to intimat,
that they were hung upon three ropes
one above another. The celebration
of the feast of Purim to this day i

Farmers should be careful about investing their
money in experimenting with fertilizers a
certainty is always better than uncertainty and
the bsst is always cheapest in the end.
This Is the opinion entertained by o. y. Drew OF
North Danville, Vt. who writes follows
