An Interesting Cerem oniaI at the Will
 liam Street Synagogue.

A ceremony of unusual interest took place in the William street synagogue Sunday afternoon, the dedication of q scroll of thelaw which pre- sentod to the synagogue by MT. s. Fleischner in memory of his deceased wife. According to tom the scroll was brought into the synagogue not completely written but every of the guests wroto letter two in the ante-room, it being
 ldered an honorary and good deed to write letter
 into the scroll When the writing finished 1t was brought into the synagogue with suitable mony undor canopy; here all the scrolls of the synagogue were taken out of the arc to meet it. As the door opened, Rabbi Willner and a chorus recited the last part of Psalm xxiv.. then followed an original Hebrew and German welcome poem by tie rabbi. The last fifteen verses of the Penta- Leuch read from the new scroll and 1t was put into the with the other scrolls under imposing ceremonies. The dedication sermon was preached IraeI by water, fire and in the wilderness In early times men lived in desert where water is to oe found, they thirsted for God and in error bowed to their own handiwork Then was the law given water and it's running stream has Irrigated the whole world, and all nations have drunk from fire; it was kept Tor us by fathers who gladly went into the fire for the law. Yea, we went into ly the law was given in a wilderness, mo one's land,'' and yet every ones land. No one need keep yet every ones property who takes the pains to go we'll and learn it's contents and be inspired has given the solid foundations to the religions of the world It is enough to see how our Gentle neighbors honor and extol this very Pentateuch. Many battles had to be fought for it against foes outside and many now battling against it in the midst of Judaism, but the word of God will remain SteadfaSt forever.
 This was followed by the afternoon prayer. after which MT. N. Herz addressed the attendance re- marking mainly the necessity of upholding the full the occasion, and the celebrant MT Flelsch- ner, invited all present to a collation..
