The Syracuse IN. " Journal asserts that
the Jewish Reformer, in late issue, did
thing probably without parallel among re.
ligious journals. 1t published in full q
Christian sermon delivered in a Christian
pulpit, and this, not for the purpose of criti-
cism and censure, but for commendation
and praise. The preacher was the Rev.
Wilbur E. Crafts, of the First Union Pres
byterian Church, New York, and the
sermon was delivered in his OWE pulpit.
The text was from Esther, the fourth chap
ter and the last clause of the fourteenth
verse. The subject was the agreement of
the Jewish and Christian faith. A consid.
erable number of Jews heard the sermon
delivered, and a still larger number will
now have an opportunity of reading it.
The Manuscript of the sermon, which was
sympathetic in tone and friendly to the
Jews, was sent by the preacher to the editor
of the Reformer. The latter says: Ser
mons of this sort can only foster harmony
and good will among the adherents of var
ious sects, for over the differences of dogma
the hands and hearts must reach forth to.

New YORK, Dec, 2l.-The dudes and

severe setback, Inorder 10 be thorough.

The boars arrived yesterday, and the

but Henry Bergh comes out in the cold

emphatically that no pig.stiCking will be

This ia a terrible blow. Imagine q full

the case The dozen wild German boars
and soWs which arrived here yesterday on
the steamer Vera will never iul6ll the
purpose for which they were brought to
this country. When Henry BOrgh read
this mornings papers and learned how
the hogs were 10 be treated, he sent for
the Superintendent Of the Society for the
Prevention OF Cruelty to Animals, and
sent him TO Mr.. Herman Reiche, TO whom
the animals are assigned, with word that
any killing ai hogs with either spear or
sword would not be allowed. Mr.. Bergh
said that the sport would be stopped in
New York and lie would at once request
the societies in New Jersey to interfere
also. II the people at Tuxedo Park want
to kill any hogs they will be Obliged to
use the latest humane methods adopted

Bergh says that he will take such action
