Tho population of modern Jerusalem lmi
been V6ry tlillereiitly estimated ami no
doubt It Increases by some thousand at the
Benson of tho minimi rcllghtis feast but 18,
000 appear to to the most probable aver
ago population; and whllo tbo Mohnni
nuiliins aro tho mastcra, the Jews furm IhtV
decided majority, being, it Is lltcely not far
short of 8,000. They como in a constant
stream from every part of tho world, many
of thcirt On pilgrimages, by which they hopo
to acquiro a large fund of merit, and then
return again to their native country; the
greater number that thry may dto in the
city of their fathers, and obtain tho most
cherished wish of their heart by bcltig bu
rled on Mount Olivet, and It is rcmarka
bio that tbey cling with n strango preference
to that part of tho city which is nearest tho
site of their ancient Temple, as if they still
"took pleasure in it.s stones, and its very
dust wero dear to them." They aro fond
of inscribing touching passages from the
Old Testament upon the most conspicuous
places In their synagogue, such as that in
tho hundred and thirty-seventh IVlm : "By
the rlvors of Babylon, thero we sat down,
yea, wo wept yllen wo remembered 'Aon,
Wo hanged our harps upon the willows in
thu midst thereof. If I forget thee, O
.Tcrusnlciii, let my right hand forget her
cunning If I do not remember thee, let
my tonguo clcavo to tho roof of my mouth;
if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chlel
joy' Tho Jerusalem syiiag6gueJ, however
uro not adorned like many ot tlioso in our
European capitals, such as wo have seen at
Leghorn and Frankfort, probably in order
to avoid tempting tho cupidity ofunscrupu
lous Moslem rulers. It Is indeed rcmarka'
bto in how many ways tho Jews keep hold of
their country as with a trembling baud,
and aro reluctant to let go tho traces and
tho records of a glorious post. A n later
period wo visited with a learned Jew remote
mountain villages in Palestine, far out of
tho common track of travelers, which con
tained tho tombs of old rabbis and learned
men, some of them going back even beyond
tho Christian era, and1 we found that lamps
wero kept burning before thosq tombs night
and day. What an amazing tenacity of life
thero is aliko iu the people and their' faith !
We visited several of their synogogucs, and'
bad brief conversation with some of their
chief men; and threo things particularly
struck us shedding incidental light upon
tho Scriptures.
Thus, it was curious to notico the close
resemblance between the order of religious
iservico in those Jerusalem synagogues in
our own day and that which is described in
Luke's Go9pcl as having been observed in
the synagogue at Nazareth on that memora
ble occasion when our Lord was invited to
become the teacher. The correspondence
was, in fact, complete in every point, as if
the thing had remained stereotyped down
through all the eighteen centuries. A roll
of one of the books of the Old Testiment
was carried' by a servant from a recess in the
wall and put into the hands of the, presi
dent or reader, who was elevated on a plat
form in the centre of tho synagogue. While
the Scripture for tho day was being recited,
both tho reader himself and all thecongre
gation, stood up ; but at the close of the
reading all tho people took their scats, and
the reader, seated also, proceeded with his
mingled exposition and exhortation. It
was scarcely less interesting to observe that
the attendance of the Jews on tho different
synagogues was regulated by the countries
to which they owed their birth. Jews from
the coasts of Africa and from tho south of
Europe usuallyifrequented ono synagogue;
German and Polish Jews wero to be found
in another: and so it was with other nation
alities. But when wo turn to the narrative
iu the Acts of the Apostles, vc find tho
same state of things existing in Jerusalem
at the beginning of Christianity. Among
those who disputed with the youthful Steph
en, when "his face shono like the faco of an
angel," were some from tho synagogue of
Libertines that is, frecdmen from Borne
and other parts of Italy ; somo from the
synagogue of Cilicia and, thu neighboring
provinces that is, Asiatio Jews. Thonutn,

A French money lender complained to
Baron Rothschild that a nobleman to whom
he had loauedten thousand francs had gone
off and left no acknowledgement of the debt.
"Write him and ask him to send you imme
diately tho seventy thousand francs he owes
you," said ihe wily banker. "But he only
owes me ten thousand francs," said thu
money lender. "Precisely," rejoined the
Baron : "and he will write and tell you so,
and you will thus get his acknowledgment."
A class of ragged boys in a school had
learned to answer the question in tho cat

dust of the earth." "Oh no t" was the re
monstratiou: "God made you," "No," was
the response, "the boy that God made Isn't

THE
Agricultural.
Tlioso who can grow milnccs vcll find
tli cm ono of tho most profitable of all fruit
crops, Unfortunately those who can grow
them well, seem to bo the very great exeep
lions to tho general rule. Tho agricultural
newspapers have, for several years past, told
Ii3 of one great ft nil grower, near Dayton,
Ohio, who grows pears, apples, cherries,
strawberries, raspberries, and other things,
but nono of them .aro so profllablo an Ills
orchard of quinces. How he grows them Is
glveu with theso accounts, hut It is tho rulo
with most fruits that a system of culturo for
fruit trees that would bo n success In any of
tho cstern Slates, would bo of no uso at
all in the districts readied by our pen
Lvery district of country has to find out for
Itself the best system of culture. In the
management of tho quince, there are threo
things to contend with. It is liable to tho
nttdeks of tho milnca borer, which enters
tho stem near the ground, And unless kept out
it ia of no uso to try to ralso quinces. Then
tho knot is very troublesome at times ; nud
again, nt times, a species of red rust injures
the leaves, when the wholo plant soon be
comes stunted, and grows slow. Good,
rich soil and a sheltered place, seem to bo
favorablo to tho quince ; but one can scarce
ly tell iu nil van co what is a good quince
soil. U would bo well for all who have
fruit farms to try a few qulnco plants; mid
having found out for certain that they will
do well, more can bo set out to any extent,
and to tho groat profit of tho owner. Mary
land Farmer,
1'OOT-Hot. When foDt-rot has for somo
weeks been neglected and the sheep rontln
uo on soft ground, which favors the supera
hundant growth of degenerate horn, It bo-
comes confirmed and difficult of cure. Tho
secreting textures persist in pouring out
lymph and weak, faulty horn instead cf the
healthy foot. Ono of tho chief difficulties
in tho way of euro Is to restoro tho secret
jug parts to their sound state. The first .step
must, however, bo with a strong, sharp
knife, while the hoofs aro soft, carefully to
cut away all loose unsound horn. Where the
hoof Is extensively affected, this cannot bo
done all at onca ; two or three operations
will bo necessary. Fungous, bad smelling
growths which appear in most troublesome
cases aro got rid of by any strong astring
ents. Butter of antimony is often used for
such purposes, and in cautious hands an
swers fairly. Somo shepherds uso it mixed
with about equal parts of impuro carbolic
acid. and diluted with two or threo parts of
oil. In some districts copper sulphate oint-
jnent, made in tho proportion of one to four
of fatty matter, is in good repute, and is
improved by tho addition of about ono part
of the antiseptic deodorizing carbolic acid.
Such treatment may be varied by dressings
of zincchlorido solution. It will always be
found that tho successful treatment of foot
rot depends not so much on tho particular
dressings employed as upon careful paring
away of faulty horn, examining and doctor
ing the foot at intervals of two or three days,
avoiding strong caustics, and placing tho
flock on dry, firm ground. Among sheep
on arable land foot-rot is usually cured
quicker than in those on grass.
Wmri-iKo Houses Dakog'rous. I
would caution those who train horses or use
them, upon another point, viz : that of ex
citing the ill-will of tho animal. Mauy
thlnk'they are doing finely, and are proud
of their success in horse training, by means
of severo whipping, or otherwise rousing
and stimulating tho passions, and then, from
necessity, crushing tho will through which
resistance is prompted. No mistake can bo
greater than this, and thero is nothing that
so fully exhibits tho ability, judgment and
skill of the real horseman, as tho care dis
played in winning instead of repelling the
action of tho mind. Although it mav bo
uecessary to uso tho whip sometimes, it
should be always applied judiciously, and
great care should be taken not to rouse tho
passions or excite the will to obstinacy.
The legitimate and proper use of tho whin
is calculated to operato upon tho sense of
fear almost entirely. Tho affectionate and
better nature must be appealed to in traili
ng a horse, as well as in training a child.
A reproof given may bo intended for the
good of the child, but if only the passions
are excited, the effect is depraving and in
jurious. This is a vital principle, and can
be disregarded in the management of sensa
tivo and courageous horses only at the risk
of spoiling them. I have known many
horses of a gentle character to bo spoiled by
whipping once, and ono horso that was
made vicious by being struck with a whip
whilo standing in his stall. Drqfcuor Fow

Don't Use the Hatchet or Saw. Of

do away with, as the practice of cutting off
lower limbs. All over the country nothing
is more common than to seo mutilated trees
on almost every farm. Hie limbs cutoff
near the body of tho tree, nrd of course rot
ting it to tho heart. This is a great sin
against nature. Tho very limbs necessary
to protect tho tree from tho wind and sun.
and just whero limbs aro needed most, they
are cut t way. But tho createBt iniurv is
the rotting that always takes placo when a
big limb is sawed off. Too big to heal over.
it must rot; and being kept moiat by being
on the tree, is in the right condition te rot ;
and being on the body, the rotting goes to
the heart, and hurts the whole tree. It is
nommon all over tho country to see, largo or
chards mutilated in this way. Wo often
seo holes in the trees whero squirrels and
even raccoons could crawl in. Perhaps tho
ouly reason these trimmers would give is
that the lower limbs wero easiest got at, and
some would say they wanted to raUo a crop
under the trees.
The CiiKRitY ron Shape. For omaraen
tat purposes and for shade, the cherry is
superior to almost any other fruit-bearing
tree. Its beautiful and graceful form ; its
early sheet of white blossoms covering it as
with a mantle of snow ; its dense green
foliage which soon follows tho full of thq
blossoms, and then its pendent fruit iu red
or jet clusters, nestled n delightful contrast
with tho emerald foliage, what can be more
charming to tho eyes or more provocative
of appetite? Had the forbidden fruit been
the cherry, I think Eve herself should be
forgiven for her transgression. What boy
or girl can resist the temptation to tako a
cherry as it hangs in all its beauty and glo
ry ? The question of ownership is forgot
ten in the presence of a cherry tree ladened
with Its ripe and luscious fruit. This very
temptation is used as an argument against
planting tho cherry as a shade tree along
our public road. Beauty so transcendent,
as iu human lorm, snouiu no its own pro
tector. I should like to seo cherry trees so
common that there would bo enough for
boys aud girls, birds and insects, and yet
leave ample for profitable marketing,
