THE HEBREW YEAR ENDED LAST ETEyTS0

The Hebrew year 1864 closes at sunset tonight,
and the advent of the new year will be observed
by Hebrews the world over this evening and to-
morrow. While the Christian year begins with the
first month. that OF the Hebrews begins with the
first day Of the seventh month not because there
Is any Biblical reason for IL. but because In this
month occurs the harvest festival and because
the harvest Is typical OF the close OF the year
The day is mentioned In Scriptures as IA day Of
festive enjoyment" "a day OF divine judgment"
and "a day of memorial 10 mark the transition
of the season"
The New Years Day. or Rosh Hashonah. IL
observed by Hebrews generally more as a day Of
family reunion than one OF religious ceremony,
and the blowing of the trumpet in the temple. the
holy convocation. is emblematical OF this annual
reunion.
"It was the observance OF these days" said
rabbi, these festivals when children come from
afar to visit parents. ana when those who could
not come sent greetings-it was the observance OF
these days which held the Jews together during
the days OF persecution. and which counteractcd

Resolution for His Expulsion.

WASHINGTON. April 16.-Representa-
tive Breckenridge and his counsel were
engaged this, afternoon in preparing
their formal motion for new trial,
which will be presented to Judge Brad.
ley tomorrow. This motion is mere
formality in the way Of an appeal to
the district court of appeals, for no one
entertains the slightest idea that Judge
Bradley will override the decision and
grant the new trial.
The motion will be based upon the
usual grounds that the verdict was con.
trary to the law and was contrary TO the
evidence, ard that the damages were
excessive.
The counsel for the defense will press
for hearing on the motion at the ear
hest possible day as Attorney Stoll is
anxious to return to Kentucky. Setur-
day is motion day in Judge Bradley's
court, but the judge thinks Of taking
short vacation for rest from his labors Of
the past month, 80 thas the date for the
hearing is uncertain.
The docket Of the court of appe ais Is
80 crowded that it is quite probable the
appeal cannot be heard there before
next September, when the court meets
for its fall term. The cost of an ap-
peal to this court is 80 great that it
might we'll deter the defense. from
prosecuting the case further.
1t will be necessary to have printed
for the court at the expense of the ap-
pellant record OF the proceedings in
the circuit court, and this, considering
the length of suoh document, will be
heavy expense in itself.

sister of Colonel Bceokinridge's late

Representative Breckenridge proposes
to resume his Congressional duties to-
morrow. He is member OF the House
appropriations committee, and was an
active member in that body until called
from his legislative duties to the cele-
brated trial in which he WAS defendant
and ended on Saturday last. He was
about the House to-day for a few
minutes.
He was looking we'll, better than he
did before the trial began. The mem
bers OF tho House made no demonstra-
ton when he came In. While none of
the members were ELUSIVE in their
greetings, all whom he addressed re-
ceived his advances in an apparently
friendly spirit
II was reported to day that one of the
Nom bers Of the kentucky delegation
would offer resolution looking to Mr..
Breckinridge's expulsion from the
House. None of the memb ers of the
delegation could be found who had
heard anything definite regarding the
report, and it is generally discredited.
