A JEWISH FEAST.
The feast Purim noted jewish festival
will be celebrated tomorrow by orthodox
Jews the world over. In speaking Of the
Specification of this feast Rabbi schel
letter, OF Las Vegas, says;
We keep Purim, the festival of Esther
and Mordecai,, on the fourteenth day o.
the twelfth month Adar, and in leap
wear on the thirteenth day Of the thir
teenth month, the second Adar. Its OBJ
iect is to thankfully remember Gods
kind providence in having saved the Is
raelites, in the Persian empire, through
Esther aud Mordecai. from utter destruc
ton, designed by the wicked Haman
the grand-vizer of King Ahasrert
Darius p. The name Purim, from thu
Persian "Pur" lot, originates from thu
fact that the superstitious Haman cast lot
to ascertain the day on which his WICKED
plan would best succeed. The history o
Purim must inspire us with the truth tina
the Eternal Is guardian and protector 0
mankind. "He slumbereth and sleepetl
not, the guardian of Israel, who is ais
the guardian of all mankind" 1t shoul
also teach us that in prosperity We shout
not be overbearing, and in adversely nc
despair, but try every reasonable and law
full means for our relief; and above all t
look I'D to Him from whom alone help
possible if all human assistance be Of Il
avail. ~
