THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT.

Opening of the Parliament at Westminster
by the Queen In Person.
LONDON, January 21.-The new Parlia-
ment is at last in session, and the hands
upon the face of 'Big Benz in Wes!min-
ster Hall have begun to record the minutes
and hours Of what may prove to be one of
the most important legislatures which the
country has seen for many generation.
With pomp and ceremony, and the braying
of trumpets. the cIinkling OF the ACQUIRE
ments Of booted and spurred outriders. the
flashing of precious stones and the pic
turesque combination of crimson and ermine,
she, whom, by the grace of God, has the for
tune or misfortune to be at present Queen
Of Great Britain and Ireland and
Empress of India, has graciously conde-
scended to open in person Parliament,
which, il report speaks truly, will be called
upon to add another and still blacker chap
ter to the already bulky volume which
records tho history Of England's mis-
g0vernancs of the Emerald Isle.
Victoria opened parliament in person.
:
into power of the Disraeli administration,
and with the demise of that brilliant but
cratic '.Jingo." it was believed, and as
serted that Her Majesty, whose personal
antipathies to the grand old man are sell
dom disguised would nc'er again consent
to again appear before her faithful sub.
jects in the role of Parliament opener.
Certain it is that all the sessions during tho
administration Of Gladstone wore opened
by proxy. Bat times have changed. The
unexpected which always happens has
come to pass. Signs of q cyclone are in
the political horizon. A section of the EN-
pire, which for years has demanded indie
pendence, has at last reinforced its demand
through the ballot box, and solid phaIanx
of Irish patriots holds the balance Of power
between the representatives Of the two
great political parties. The situation is
critical, the exigencies Of the hour ara
many and great; hence it IS that the
Queen, emerging from her enforced re-
tirement, seeks to arouse the enthusiasm
and patriotism of her subjects by once more
presenting herself in public In the role Of
''touter" for Tory administration.

THE HANUKKAH SERMON


At The William Street Synagogue-A
 Lecture on ssrhe Maecabees."
 In the William street synagogue MT. Wolff Willner preached the Kanukkah sermon to his Sabbath school and their friends. The synagogue was filled even before the an- nounced time, but thei instruction of the Sabbath school went on undisturbed. The good work done by the teachers there was highly appreciated. After the close of the rscitations, the usual after noon service was read and MT. .Willner as- cended his fathers pulpit and lectured on the causes that led to the rise of the Macca- bees. He reeited the events of those times in an interesting manner and his descriptions were often very poetical and grand. From this recital he drew it's lessons and insisted on the fact that the stronghold of Judaism lies in the children and that it is of the utmost inn portance to train them in the way they should go. This is done by schools, but schools can do but poor work if they have not the cooperation of the parents. The speaker spoke in an earnest manner and showed him. self fully inspired by the conviction of the many truths he uttered. The lecture was one that will long be remembered by it's hear CTS, both for it's beauty, it's earnestness and timeliness. MT. Willner appealed to the par ents to do or say nothing in the presence of children that is contrary to the instruction of the school His zeal and devotion to every thing that appertains to religion in general and to Judaism in particular have made him one of the best of instructors of the Bible and in truths generally and other matters pertaining to religion.

A Great Mistake

has heretofore been made in the treatment of rheumatism, neuralgia and nervous or sick headache. This is evidenced by the failure on the part of thousands of sufferers to find relief, even though they have exhausted the skill of various physicians and tried numer- ous so-called remedies. To such Athlophor- os is offered a safe, sure, and quick cure. Its success has been phenomenal, and yet it is not surprising because it will do all that is claimed for it. The Athlophoros Co. will gladly refer any who desire to make an in- vestigation to reliable parties who have been cured by it.
 69 Ruggles St., Providence, R. I.
 There is no use of talking or complaining of having rheumatism. Just buy bottle or two of Athlophoros and you won't know what rheumatism IS after you take them. I was down with that disease fourteen weeks, had the doctor attending me, was helpless and suffered much pain; well, I was so low it was necessary to have two men to assist
 and move me in bed. I then, on the advice of a friend who had tried it, commenced us
 ing Athlophoros. Two hours after using it,
 why I could use my limbs around. The inn
 provement was so marked and quick we all
 had good laugh, so you may know there
 was change. Well I kept on taking the medicine till I used nearly three bottles. Yes sir, that stuff is the best thing in the coun- try for the cure of rheumatism. like it and could keep on taking it until the "cows come home." VIM. N. BROWN. Three doses of Athlophoros relieved me from very acute attack of inhammatoIy rheumatism in nine hours consider it an invaluable remedy for rheumatic affections, and esteem it pleasure to recommend Ath- lophoros. HENRY L. HALL, Editor Journal, Willimantic, Conn.
