PATRIOTISM OF THE JEWS.

MT. Simon Wolf, of Washington. A personal friend of General Grant and General sherman, answers in the Post, published in that city, the statements, amounting to a denial of patriotism and courage of the Jews of the United States, made by J. NJ. Rogers in the North Americda ReuieW for December. and shows from the army records, from which he has extracted long list of names, that his co. religionists, in pro- portion to their numbers, were at least as patriotic and jealous for the Union cause as the men of other religious Creeds.
 MT. Wolf gives the names, of what seems to us without counting them. over 100 officers of all ranks, from subalterns to major-generals, all of them Jews, men who were distinguished. many of them, not only for courage. but for coolness and discretion in action. The Jewish cemeteries of Washing ton." concludes Mir. Wolf, land of every large city in the United States, contain the remains of brave men, and they are never forgotten on Decoration day by their loving comrades of Christian faith, and what these men recognize the great American people will, am sure, heartily endorse. The wars of every country prove the contrary.

ATTEMPTED OUTR AGE.
A St. Louis Girls Narrow Escape From
 Villains.

BIsMARE, Mo-, Dec. 2l.-Tbe authori- ties here have just learned of a most re- Voltlng outrage attempted in the rail- road yards last Monday night by lot oi hOodlums. A glrl about l5years old, who gave her name as Agnes O'Bryan, and claimed to live with her father, who IS boiler maker on Pine street, St. Louls, came in on one of the late trains oi the Belmont branch, of the St. Louis Iron Mountain and Southern railroad Monday night. She was alone, and when the train stopped at the water tank, on the south side of the town. she sad that she was told by some young fellows who were passengers on tine train that she would have to change cars there for St. Louis-and they offered to show her to the St. Louis train.
 She went with them and they took her in roundabout way to a caboose Tn the north end of the railroad yards and told her that was the train she must take. When she entered they locked the doors, darkened the windows and attempted by force and by threats with drawn pistols to accomplish their hellish purposes. Her cries and fierce resistance frightened the scoundrels so they opened the door and permitted her to escape without the accomplishment of their designs. She then made her
