Correspondence Of the Democrat.
ScoTTsvILLE, May 6.--The atomic
law OF combination and harmony Of
physical elements is as equally APP
plicable to mind as it is to matter.
Dissimilar elements only unite by
affinity, and, in so doing, may change
their original power Of action and
appearances but still contain within
their bosoms the same natural essen
tial parts, imperceptible except BY
the closest scrutiny. just so with
ideas. The Jew naturally differs
from the gentle in physiognomy,
and as he has a strong Mosaic Anra-
hamic individuality running almost
as far back where the memory Of
man runeth not to the contrary his
operations Of mind leading to appre-
hension will also differ. The Jew,
unlike other national individuals,
has no amalgamation of ideas. What
one jew is the whole race is. The
chlorine zephyrs OF the Mediterra-
mean seem to have impregnated jew
isl actions and ideas into one polar
lied cohesive mass. Hebrew ideas
will never mix with ours. He is
among us because he has no govern
ment that he can call his own. He
obeys our laws, not because he thinks
they are right, but because it is a
moral duty resting upon him. He
reasons differently with us from the
same hypothesis. The Jew will
agree with the gentle that every
man should abide by rule Of hu-
man conduct commanding what is
right and prohibiting what is wrong,
but when the gentle looks no farther
than the supreme power of state, the
Jew will demnr To his premise be
cause lie claims that no law can he
good that does not cmanate from
God by direct inspiration. The He
brew has the pure Truth--thc glory
of God as beacon infalible, and
while the gentle dishonors Aristot-
les syllogisms with fallacy the jew
applies his "Dictum de omni ct
nulIo' with the profoundest truths.
He looks upon gentle governments
to-day as modified paganism.
Gods power and mans power do
not mix when they antagonize, there
fore, Thcocracy and Paganism do
not mix,-this accounts for the jews
unmcrciful treatment under pagan
Rome. The Jew was with the mi
norlty and the alien self aggrandiz-
ing envious princes soon reduced
him to slavery. Strange to cay that
the good (?) Christian Constantine
and the Crusaders treated him very
little better, and even our "high-
toned' Christian people of this pres
cnt day have held him as an object
of ridicule and envy. Why do we
harbor such inexpressible hatred for
the Jew? / will answer this ques.
tion by saying that it is his superior
intellect and sagaclty in financier-
ing. A fool and his failures in this
world is never hated, but our supe-
riors are stung from every quarter.
The jew has been despised, muir
dered, robbed, starved, imprisoned,
but like his ancestral Father who
died upon the cross, resigns himself
to his fate, bears the poisonous fangs
OF his gregarious vipers, and il he
survives the shock, will rise, greet
you with a smile and comes again.
He has scarcely been emancipated q
hundred years and we see what he
has done: In Russia there are 300,-
900 Jews who have impoverished
the whole population by foreclosing
mortgages. They, also. own seventy
three per cent. of immovable proper
ty in that country. Solomon Polia-
koff owns one fourth Of the railroads
in Russia and is the founder Of the
engineering and mining school OF
that country. 1000 jews in Prussia,
only l20 are daily laborers, the 9th
ers being engaged in commerce.
They only form two per cent Of the
population Of Prussia and out Of 642
bankers, 81 are Jews. In Berlin
their population are five per cent and
the jew forms fifty five per cent OF
the mercantile business. Austria
has 59.122 merchants OF which 30,-
0I2 are Jews. In 1879 Hungary had
$4,000 mortgage sales, and Algiers
5000, all, or about all. executed by
the Jews. University Of Berlin con-
