H U AT LAST.

So the enemy has surrendered. The
truth is admitted at last. The Nc.
Kinley bill is not a foreign instrument,
but a wedge by which American man
ufacturers aud Americans are enabled
to make a place for themselves among
the commercial nations.
England admits that the Mckinley
bill enables American manufacturers
and workingmen to supply their W.
wants and shut out pauper competi-
ton.
The st. James Gazette, Of London,
England, takes a very gloomy view Of
the condition of British trade aud
says the decline is due to the operation
of the Mckinley law in this county.
1t admits that the people of England
have been relying upon the Demo-
cratic hoax that the Mckinley law
would eventually prove a real mis-
fortune to the United States, but that
they now realize the truth-the imme-
diate object of McKinley's bill was to
hit foreign manufacturers. Conclud-
ing, the Gazette tearfully adds sit is
plainly evident that this object has
been attained"
The London Times, too, the organ
of the Government, is likewise sorrow
full aud says 1.-THE Mckinley law has
been the great cause of the disturb
ance."
o, if we were only close enough 10
Mckinley to give the hand that
drafted that law a congratulatory
shake
Squirm, We American copperheads,
and take your medicine.
Mckinley did it with his little pen
and there is no greater man in Amei
lea to-day than Mckinley.
What a glowing tribute the Gazette
and Times pay 10 him! How frankly
they admit that they were restiog
upon false hopes! And how effectively
do they stamp the Democrats of this
country as fajsiders!
. Cleyeland's fall aud the passage Of
the Mex Aley bill were two of The
greatest achievements made in thi.
country since the emancipation. Some
have been slow ia realizing this, but
the truth is gradually dawning and
ere many weeks those who still enter
tain any doubt will be thoroughly
convinced.
The condemnation of our tariff law
by the foreign press is a signal q
D success to all Republicans.

A BLACK DAY,
A Period of Mourning in the
SVnaQOpueS,

SyddSOS uOSs
Tomorrow is the black day in the He
brew calendar. 1t commemorate the
worst disasters that befell the Jewish ma
ton. On the oh day OF the month of All
the city of Jerusalem was pillaged by
Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, the
Holy Temple was burned to the ground,
and the inhabitants, comprising those who
had been governed by Zedekiah, the King
Of Judah, were CARVED into captivity,
where they remaioed until set free by
Cyrus, King of the Modes and Persisns,
who conquered Babylon and permitted the
exiled Jews TO return and rebuild their
temple, which event occu rfed about seventy
years later.
On the same ninth day of Alb, centuries
sf.er, Jerusalem was again laid vase by
the destroyer, its Temple RACED, tens of
thousands of its Inhabitants put TO the
sword or delivered over as a prey TO wild
beasts, and the remainder sent into cap.
t,vity among heather nations, by Titus,
ai-erward Emperor of Rome.
This evening the sv~nagogues will be open
and pious worsbippers will gather to hear
tie Lamentations of Jeremiah, the mourn
full e'eGies of religious poets, and other sor-
rowful compositions written for this occs-
sion.
The service tomorrow morning is of a
more extended character, some of the most
renowned Hebrew writer's having con-
ttibuted to the liturgy of the day. The
synagogues are heavily draped in black
The Ark containing the Scroll of the Law
is likewise covered; also, the reading desk
and a seperate table used instead at these
two services. The %synagogues are darkened
on the eve, and each congregsnt holds a
lighted candle. The scene is sombre and
impressive.
In this country the fast is, perhaps, most
marked among immigrants from Russia,
who think of their prosecuted brethren in
that modern Egypt, and lament national
Acknowledgement with tears coursing down
heir cheeks and prayers to the God OF
Israel for a restoration.
