The Jewish South. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1893-1899, 1898-08-12

ALEXANDER II. introduced trial by jury in Russia,
but the courts dispense with it much as possible,
and seek to abolish it altogether. The is not
that the authorities wish to curta the liberties OF
the people, for the most progressive and enlightened
judges among the opponents jury trials They
complain that it is difficult to muster intelligent
and impartial jury. The most incredible stories
told of Russian jurvmen. Thus the foreman of
jury declared he would not send poor fellow to
prison because it happened to be his (the urymans)
birthday. Another jury had agreed upon verdict
ofguty when the church bells began to ring. They
revised their verdict because holiday had begun
burglar allowed to go free because the man
whom he had robbed had refused to lend him money.
This, in the opinion of the jury direct incen-
tive to crime.

THE JEWISH SOUTH.

BastideC Clearance there have not been any Jews for
than century, but there still some ancient
cemeteries which are maintained by the Consstoire
of Bayonne. Thirty years ago Peryhorade still had
Jewish congregation, comprising forty fam
lies who gradually diminished until there did not
remain sufficient to form Minyan. Three months
ago the last Jewish male inhabitant died, and at
present there only six Jewish ladies in the town
The synagogue which had been closed several years,
fell into ruins The Consistore at Bayonne there
FORE decided to ALLEVIATE it from it's sacred purpose,
and it was formally closed a few weeks back. In the
course of the service an impressive sermon was
preached by the grand rabbi of Bayonne and at it's
close the worshippers visited the three Jewish
teries, the oldest of which contains tombs dating
from the middle of the sixteenth century. The Seph-
arm were removed to Bayonne, and were solemnly
received in the synagogue there the following Sab
bath.
Many are the synagogues destined to become
tombstones for their congregations unless the soul Of
Israel the spirit Of Jacob, asserts itself ere it is too

Only week ago lamen tations for the destruction
of the two temples Of Jerusalem uttered by Jews
OF every country So attached Israel it's sanctu
aries OF the satisfaction of seeing con
querors-Bahylon and Rome-vanish like the smoke
OF it's temples they destroyed notconsdered as any
redress, but anguish signs, lamentations and hopes
for a restoration manifested by loyal Jews the
world over But when 'milkdash-maat "a "sanc-
tuary small scae"-is turned into tombstone,
not sigh, not murnlur is uttered nor does serve
as lesson for Jews of other countries
An interesting ceremony took place recently at
Peryhorade (Landes), where for the last time ser
vice was held in the small synagogue in the presence
Of the grand rabbi Of Bayonne and several official
members Of the Jewish community in that city The
Jewish congregation at Peryhorade, like those at
Saint Esprit Bidache and La Bastide Clairance was
founded by fraction of the Jews who had been ban
shed from Spain in 1892 and received from them the
name of Bethel. The new arrivals who were re-
ceived with kindness by the Dues de Grammont SUI
zerans of those localities called new Christians
or Portuguese, and for upwards of a century were
obliged to practice openly the Christian religion 1t

and open synagogues On the whole they were in
Prosperous condition, and were distinguished by
