Jews figure prominently in the history
Of the discovery of America. The plans
aud calculations for Columbus expedition
was largely the work of Two Hebrew as
trOnomers and mathematicians. The
Jews were also employed as interpreters
by Columbus, and one of them. Luis de
Torres, was the first European TO set foot
In the new world. When Columbus
sighted the island of San Salvador he i'm
agined he was approaching a portion OF
the East Asiatic coast, and he sent Torres,
who was engaged for his knowledge of
Arabic, ashore to make inquiries OF the
natives. IL was probably this Torres who
was the Madrid jew 10 whom Columbus
bequeathed half a mark Of silver in his
viii. Another curious fact is that 1t has
been seriously SUCCESSFULLY Mr.. De-
litzsch, we believe-that Columbus him
self was a jew or Of Jewish birth. The
name Christopher was frequently adopted
by converts. while the surname Colon be-
longed to distinguished family of jew
lsh scholars. Christopher's father. Diego.
bore originally the Jewish name Jacob,
which sounds surprisingly like a Shem
kadosh. Perhaps during the coming cell
ebrations some Jewish scholars in Italy
will make inquiry into the validity of this

The Frodigal DAUGHTER.

From our first recollection we have al
ways heard a great deal of talk about the
return of the prodigal son. We have
heard that touching and instructive par
able read many times in churches. aud
heard many eloquent sermons preached
from the same. yet We cannot remember
Of a single instance either in sacred or
prOiane history where IA hurrah was made
over the return of the prodgal daughter
Many girls have wandered away from
home. fallen into dissipation and bad
ways. and occasionally have become so
heartSick. they have braved fathers
wrath and the contumely. reproach and
scorn of their female acquaintance. aud
sick and tired of life. have returned to the
home OF their life. have returned to the
home of their youth and innocence to die
We have never heard. however. of an in
stance where the father saw her afa' of
and ran Ia meet her. ordered the finest
apparel brought forth. the fatted calf
killed. and the neighborS invited &c re-
iOice over her return.
On the contrary. in the cases We ever
heard of. she was quietly slipped in the
back way and the matter kept as quiet as
possible. Instead of making IL matter
OF public rejoicing. the prodigal daughter
was made 10 take a back seat. Her fe-
male acquaintance. who met the prodigal
son with a hearty hand shake aud
wreath of smiles upon his return. seem
afraid to come near her. and generally
lift their dress skirts as she passes by.
Why this distinction?
We find no fault with the grand in
structiVe parable. nor with those who
preach from it. We think the old gentle
man did right. But the same principles
should apply TO woman.
While laboring day after day toreclaim
fallen men. While we make a hero Of the
reformed man; We should at least extend
the hand of friendship to the reformed
woman, and once moe give them tn,

from the reproach and contempt Of So
ciety.
Public sentiment should be educated to
regard woman's crimes. the same as il re-
CARDS those of man. Society should be
impressed with the fact that both are
equally guilty aud one entitled To for
giveneSs and reinstatement in society as
well as the other.-EX.

may get u few of the uninstructed

one between two western and two

a square issue between one from each
section, but combination is almost
certain to be made between two of
the candidates.
