A QUESTION ANswERED.-Maj. Noah, a learned lsraelite, is thus interrogated. "The second coming Of Christ is be- lieved by large portion Of Christians. Would the Jews believe in his spiritual and temporal Messiahship if he should again appear on earth 2" The Major, in his paper, the Sunday Times, thus answers: "He would, we think. be less wei come to the Christians than to the Jews. He could not, we think, recog- nize tho reformed religion which is car ried out in his name. He who preach ed against pride ostentation, and arro- gance-whO was the friend Of the poor and rebuked the rich and worldly-mind- ed-who preached ''peacc on earth and good will to men"-who ordained obe- dience to the laws and submissions to ruers-would not brook the desecration ofthe Christian pulpit. occupied by some men who endeavor to stir mp rebellion and division among the people-who falsely quote the scriptures to carry out their fanaticism on slavery-who open ly defy the laws, and wickediy recon mend opposition to them-who are SOW ing division and misery throughout the land. He would say, II had trouble with the Scribes and Pharisees who were my own people-thcy did not re. cognize my mission; but here are my followers--as they represent themselves to bc---who ought in my name to car. ry out my principles, but who do not who consider that there are Many OF my orders, directions and doctrines which they can not carry out, alleging that they do not conform to the spirit ofthe agew He would find his own people as he left them two thousand years ago, with one faith and one God; but the church which he established he would find divided into numerous sects, one ar rayed against the other, preaching all kinds o doctrines, and understanding better what he meant to establish than he did himself The question is not "How would the Jews receive him 2" but g How would he be received by those protesting to be Christians z" This is MT the age for such visitation.

New YORK sun. Sir Henry Thompson, the distinguish. ed English physician, writes thus con- cermng pure water: "All the great makers OF soda and potash waters have now their own arteslan wells, or other equally trustworthy sources, SO that En- glish aTated waters are unrivalled in eX- celence. On the other hand, the foreign siphon, made, as II often Is, at any chem lists shop and from the water Of the nearest source, Is a very uncertain pro- duction, Probably our travelling fellow countrymen owe attacks of fever more TO drinking water contaminated 10y sew age matter than TO the malanous in hucnces which pcrvadc certain districts of Southern Europe. The only water safe for the traveller TO drink is natural mineral water, and such is now always procurabc through )ut Europe, except in very remote or unfrequented places. In the latter circumstances no admlNture Of wine or spirit counteracts the poison in tainted water. and makes 1t safe to drink, as people often believe; but the simple process of boiling it renders IL perfectly harmless, and this result is readily attained in any locality by max ing weak tea, to be taken hot or cold, or III making toast water, barley water ana lemonade"

The condition of the nail trade ID an in teresting study. Last year prices sud den- ly went up, after most remarkable depression, to about four times the old figures, Then, like the French prince. they went down again. Josh Billings says that when man gets to going down hill everything seems to be creased for the occasion, The same thing seems to be true of nails, The nail makers. says the Des Moines, Iowa, Leader, have struggled manfully against their fate. They have net In solemn conclaye and talked over their impending woes, and amid signs & despair have concerted plans to head oil the price of nails in its mad career TO the demnition bow-wowe. They have unanl- mously agreed to shut eff the mills, now for three weeks and now for three more. In this way they have kept down the pro. duction to 1000. 900 kegs less than it was .ast year. But in vain. Down down, down go tho prices, until they have reach> ed $500 rates. All the makes are now running on full time, but many of them think this cannot last. There is one thing the nail makers have failed to take into account. They may meet and decide what is the least and lowest cent they will take for nails, but they can't decide how many nails the people shall buy at those but they can't hinder consumers from cutting down consumption still moro. This seems to be just about what has happened. people don't use as many nails 10 making wire fences as they did in making board fences few years ago. 1t don't take as many nails to build brick or stone house | as a frame one. The worst of it SO far as | the nail bakers are concerned, is that | this falling off of the use of naiIs;is likely to be perpetual and steady. Already in | ium Der supply. we arc SO near out of the woods, that a great many long headed persons think they can see through. The increasing cost OF lumber will throw US back on brick, and stone and wire, and we shall! have less aud less use for nails. Where i. will END no prophet Of this gen GRAFTON is wise enough
