The recent meeting of The American-Jew.
ish Historical Society. in Philadelphia has
directed anew the attention of thoughtful
people to the pIft TIE dew has played in
shaping the destinfes and contributing
to the advancement and civilization OF the
New World aud mose especially the United
States. From the very discovery of the
Western continent to8he present day, Jews
have been among the most potent, ii silent,
factors in the events that make up its
history. IL may otsbe generally known
thatthree eminent Jews were with Columbus
on his first voyage, Two OF them physicians,
the third an official who went at Queen
1sabella's special request, and that it was
this third one who was the first to sight
land and to proclaimit.
Within n half century after Columbus
first voyage the first Jewish colony on
American soil took root i'll Brazil, and
about century later the first Jews came
to the United States, going first to New Am
sterdam aud thence TO Newport, L. /.
The freedom they enjoyed caused them 10
expand their energies, and when the colonies
aroused themselves 10 shake off the Eng
lish yoke, their Jewish citizens were among
the first 10 cast their fortunes with the
| cause Of liberty. They gave freely their
lives and their fortunes. One of Washing
tons most trusted aides-de-camp was Col.

Morris, the mau who advanced $3o0,0OO

The report tof the Engineer Commission on
the proposed route OF the Nicaragua canal
will probably put an end TO a plot to
make the United States responsible for
the bonds TO be f!oated in the interests OF
that scheme. Contrary 10 general Cxrecta-
tions, the plan of the canal is reported
feasible, but its immense cost viii prac-

ports that Sl32,472 ,933 will be required,
and that the project should not be under

to aid the revolution and never got his
money back, was Haym solomon, Phil
adelphia Jew.
From the day of the Declaration OF lnde-
pendence to the present the Jews have
been among the most valuable citizens
OF the republic. Their habits of industry
and thrift, their unbounded charity, their
abslemious habits, their almost religious
observance OF the obligations OF citizen
ship, their patriotism, their respect for the
law, their enterprise, their devotion to art,
literature and all ennobling pursuits have
upon every community where they have
been at all numerously represented. Tenn
pies, colleges, orphan asylums, hospitals,
homes for the aged aud charitable institu-
tions OF every kind have been reared by
them, and no worthy cause, no matter what
It's character, but has had Jews among
it's most liberal supporters. To the jew
the great Western republic has been the
promised land where he is destined to
find his fullest and best development.
As with the whole country, so with its
capital the Jews have been identified from
the very beginning, and here as elsewhere,
they have proved their worth in every re-
laiion OF life. Here, too, they are foremost
in everything that tends to the good of the
city, aud its welfare will find no more
earnest and ever ready promoters than the
children OF Israel.

Lincoln's Birthday.

The proposition crystallized by Senator

Abraham Lincoln's birthday national

NOUS Endorsement of the people of all the
States. No man. not even Washington
has more fully deserved canonization in the
heartsof eAmericanpe people thanthatslent
patient, perseyering statesman, who guided
the nation through the .stormiest, the
most perilous period of its existence, and
at the very end consecrated his work with
his life blood.
Here in Washington where the homcly
face, beaming with native gentieness and
kindness was a familiar sight, the gaunt,
ungainly figure a familiar picture, where
his infinite patience and forbearance under
trials that would have driven an ordinary
man to despair, were batter known than
