A Jewish Rabbi on the War•
A sermon, transated from the German, delivered
ern Thanksgiving Day, by Dr. David Einhorn, Rabbi
of the Congregation Eeneseth Israel, in this city,
has just been p u blished in pamphlet form, the pro
eNtedigif which are to be given to the 17. S. Sanitary
Commission. The text on which the discourse is
Branded is contained in Genesis xicsii., 6,14, being
the narrative of Jacob's solicitude for the safety of his
tOlOOO, ahlidlen. and Rooks, on the eve of meeting his
,brother Esau, When displeasure ha had years before
incurred, Beat, by meanly extorting from him his
birthright, and secondly, by cheating him out of the
paternal blessing. The text .also contains this de
vout acknowledgment of Jehovah's goodness: "I
am not worthy of the least of all the mercies and of
all the truth which thou has chewed unto thy ser
vant, for with my staff I passed over this Jordan,
and now I am become two bands."
The learned Rabbi finds a similarity between the
present condition of our country , and Jacob's case, at
that juncture of his expenenee, neither having yet
reached the desired goal of peacefallermien, after a
.protraeted and bitter estrangement, as he also does
:between the nituveltous prosperity experienced by
Jacob during that interval of separation, and the
eiminiss growth in material wealth that has attend
ed us as a loyal people. As Jacob had viewed the
approach of Esau, with bis four hundred men, as
the spectre of a destroyer, so, at the outbreak of the
rebellhon, the threatening. of the seceded States
had presented to many the ghastly spectre of univer
sal impoverishment. But it was not long before the
then. preValent delusion, that the Northwas depend
ing on the South for a living, and that cotton was
king, was exploded, and, instead, the idea was gain
ing wound that God is king, and not cotton ; that He
makes 'rich, and makes., poor, and not human cun
ning.
Instead of seeing grass grow in our streets, as bad
been predicted by audacious rebels abroad and
cowardly traitors at home, magnificent palaces were
rising along our business avenues almost with the
Celerity of magic, and instead of trade and traffic
I nge , s lu ng , as was foretold, our merchants were
never so pressed with. business. Nor must it be
forgotten that while this was true at the North, the
South was suffering for the necessaries of life. This
marked contrast between the present condition of
the two sections of this country, the preacher
maintains, is directly attributable to the sovereign
Will and decree of Rim who declared to Israel, at
their national birth, "I am the Lord thy God, who
ban brought thee out of the laud of Egypt, out of
the house of bondage." • .
Doctor Ebben' next reviews the New York riots
and traces them to their pioper origin—the Copper
heads—adding that all that wickedness, arson, and
bloodshed had been perpetrated in the name of
peace, and for the sake of dowry. Which the "false
propheta," both Jew and Christian, bad announced as
a divine institution, But he tin .e cause for thank
fulness in the fact that those evil-spirits have at
length shrunk back to their caverns, giving no small
credit to the October election for the accomplish
ment of this happy result. Then, too, our great
victories of the past year, the unmasking and fru'.
%ration of the iniaisious deagins of that hellish
order know es the Golden Circle, the-gradual change
of European sentiment in favor of our Government,
the success here in our own State in driving back
the haughty invader and saving Washington, "the
Jerusalem of America," from desecration by
pions bands, are all enumerated and appropriately
commented upon as subjects for general gratitude to
God.
In the following extract., however, the author
Shows more forcibly how well he understand, the
merits of our great national question, and that he is
fully competent to lead that views and mould the
sentiments of his race in the emergency that is now
drawing aline between the true men and the false
in this land, irrespective of their creed, nationality,
or color. Dr. Einhorn pays :
"Exists there in the wide domain of the United
Staten an intelligent patriot who has not arrived at
the conviction that slavery has been the primary
cause of the nation's present troubles, and that only
in the ruins of this institution the Republic will be
enabled to rise to unprecedented splendor and ere:
cellenecl Has not this remarkable change of Opinion
already set the Border States at devising means
how to shake off this institution, which, like a
viper, fastens on the heels of liberty? Who ie now
shrieked at the sight of a negro regiment? And who
ought to rejoice more at this state of things than we,
the descendants of Abraham, of whom forty thou•
sand were carried away into slavery by Titus; Who
during the dark ages were bartered like chattle, and
whom the German emperors used to designate their
body. servants? There are some people who cannot
be moved if even the heavens fell, that cannot be
made to yield any of their inveterate notions. Per
sons of this stamp may yet dream of the possibility
of a rotten peace, which can only perpetuate the
bloody conflict. But God never subjects the world
to trevall without a purpose. In sorrow and in an
guish she brings forth new and shining lights of truth,
new and nobler sentiments washes and cleanses
them of old decaying prejneices, wipes away the
hood of tears, and dries up the streams of blood that
often took their rise in ancient days in order that
the earth may be renovated and made joyful. Peirce !
and who would not desire peace? But we ask for a
real, permanent peace, a peace of God in truth and
in justice. Jacob also wished to make peace with
his brother Esau, and to that end offered him droves
of sheep and cattlejor a present, but not his birth
right, which had caused the quarrel, for that would
have relinquished the high mission to which God
had appointed him and his offspring. And neither
will the American people sacrifice in this struggle
their birthright, the exalted mission of proclaiming
freedom to all the world, though many a precious
sacrifice it has already cost to bring thi4 war to a
happy issue in the interest and for the sake of the
nation's divine mission.
. .
A gloomy and anxious night is impending over
the nation, like the one in which Jacob wrestled
with the angel, when he contended, as explained by
the Mieleash, with the dark spirit of Esau. But on
the night follows a glorious morning, the spirit of
darkness bow. himself before the spirit of light,
and the vanquished brother, invoking a blessing,
lays his hand upon the head of the victor, and says :
Thou haat prevailed? It requires no ift of pro
phecy to predict a bright future for this country.
Look at the Old World ? Do you not observe how
the ancient throne of monarchs totter; how the na.
tiona rise against centuries of oppression I Behold the
gleaming countenance of young awakened Liberty,
at whose refulgence the trembling potentates cover
themselves againwithtbeir purple andlawn,andherd
together to take counsel of eaeh other, and to dazzle
the multitude by their false glare, but at which the
nations mock and cry out: 'Not your paint and tin
ad we have come to see, but the glorious dawn of
liberty, whose lovely rays come dancing toward, us
from the new world.' And we, the inhabitants of
this new world. shall we be afraid. or think it even
passible, that Esem, in his robe of purple, approaches
to smite the mother, our republic, with the children I
Never I The divine spirit that rules the events of
the world has ordered it otherwise. Liberty, an
emanation of this spirit, is designed to be purged
and purified of the dark spot that still mars her
heavenly countenance, that her light may shine
brighter and fuller, and gladden the whole earth
with her lustre. A brilliant throne shall be erected
for her in the new and in the old world, and when
the storms and violent commotion. shall have
ceased, she may exclaim: 'With`my pilgrim staff
have I crossed the sea to seek a place of refuge here,
and now I have become two bands; bearing here and
there the staff of rule and sway.' 3,

For the benefit of the curious in such matters, we

Battle of New Orleans was celebrated yesterday in
the Suprime Oourt room, by the soldiers of the war
of 1812. Alderman Peter Hay presided.
The following expression of sentiments, under the
head of toasts, were read and unani mously ap•
proved :
1. The day we Celebrate—lt closed the moored war
of Independence in a blaze of glory.
2. General Andrew Jackson—The brave and un
--compromising friend of the Union, whether assailed
by foreign foes or factious demagogues at home.
8. General George Washington—The pure and
spotless patriot, "first in war, first in peace, arid
tint in the hearts of his countr ymen."
4. The soldier, and statemen of the Revolution.
They erected a temple sacred to Liberty and - ca.
bleated it with their blood. The curse of Oslo on
the wretch that would attempt to destroy it.
5. The gallant soldiers and statesmtin of the war
of 1812—most of them have descended to honored
graves. Never while memory holds its seat in Our
bosoms will we, their survivors, forget them.
6. The brave volunteers of the Mexican war—With
Scott as their leader, they planted the star spangled
banner in triumph on the halls of Montezuma.
7. The officers and soldiers of the

Captain George Emerlok, from the executive com
mittee, submitted the following preamble and reso
lutions
- Agreeably to a provision of our Constitution, the
Association of Defenders of the War of 1812 have
assembled to celebrate the anniversary , of the battle
of NeW Orleans, in 1818, when the proud veterans of
England were ingloriously vanquished by American
volunteers and militia, under the command of the
immortal Jackson. Since our last meeting, on the
4th of July, so far as can be ascertained, thirteen of
our member., and a mesh larger number of the old
soldiers of the war of 1812, not connected with this
association, have been removed from us by death.
Among them we recognize the name of Colonel
Lemuel Poynter, one of our early and active mem
ber,. A deputation of our number paid the lest
tribute of respect to his memory by following his
mortal remains to their final resting-place. Whilst
sincerely deploring the heavy losses we have thus
sustained, our grateful thanka are due to Almighty
God for sparing our lives, and permitting so many
of us to assemble, on this interesting occasion, in
the enjoyment of a good measure of health and
comfort, to commemorate the glorious victory, or
which thin is the forty-eighth anniversary, to keep
alive among ourselves the cherished recollections of
the past, and to utter words of cheer amid the gloom
of the present. We offer the following resolutions
as expressive of our sentiments on some points of
general interest:
Resolved, That whilst we deplore the long continu
ance of an unnatural rebellion against the Union,
the loss ol thousands of valuable lives, the un
paralleled sufferings, and the heavy pecuniary
burdens which have been its inevitable comm.
quence, the favorable turn of events, within the
last few months, encourages the hope that by the
adoption of a prudent yet energetic policy by our .
National Administration, a speedy restoration of
the Union in all its original force and vitality may
be reasonably expected—a consummation that would
cheer our declining years with a well grounded hope
that our children and our children's children will
continue to live under the protection of the Star
Spangled Banner, and enjoy all the benefits of the
free republican institutions framed by the patriots
of the Revolution.
Resolved, That all experience has proved the great
superiority of volunteers over citizens reluctantly
withdrawn from the pursuits of civil life, some of
them, from conscientious motives, natural timidity,
and other causes, opposed to bearing arms, and
forced into military service by draft or conscription;
and we are therefore gratified to learn that Bush a
modification of the conscription law will probably
be made by Congress, at its present session, as will
remove this and other objectionable features of the
law, sufficiently reward 'Volunteers, and thus greatly
promote the efficiency of the army.
Resolved, That we again invokerhe National Le•
gislature not to be unmindful of the claims of the
widows, orphans. and others of our gallant sol
diers who have lost their lives in the public ser
vice, on the justice as well as the gratitude of the
nation.
Resolved, That we sincerely regret that the polite
invitation extended by Governor Curtin to this As
sociation, to participate in the solemn services of
the dedication of the cemetery prepared for the re
ception of the bodies of the gallant soldiers who fell
in the sanguinary conflicts near Gettys urg in July
lad, did not reach us until it was too late even to
convene our Executive Committee but our thanks
are no leas due to Governor Cur tin.; and we are
pleased to learn that arespeetable deputation of the
old soldiers of Baltimore and the adjacent districts
were present, and that this Association was effi
ciently, though informally, represented' by our fel
low-member, Colonel Cl. G. Childs.
Resolved. That our thanks are tendered to the Go
vernors of the various States who have united with
our Governor in consecrating a cemetery and inter
ring the brave men who gallantly fell in defence of
their country at Gettysburg, and we trust that a na
tional monument will be erected on that sacred spot
that will stand ages after our mortal remains have
mouldered in their mother earth.
The resolutions were adopted unanimously.
Colonel Nelon, who participated in the battle of
New Orleans!, was called to deliver a seech
upon that battle, which, how ever, contained no p new
points Of interest than those with which the great
mass of the people are already familiar.
TRADESMEN'S STRIKES.--The present con
dition of the mechanical trades in this city is quite
placid, and nothing has occurred for many weeks
past to disturb the harmony which should always
exist between the employer and the employee. The
"Unions" have drawn in almost every artisan of
the various trades, and their prospects are reported
as quite flattering of success. The scarcity of labor
in all departments renders it quite easy for the em
ployee to enforce his claims and prices, and the em
ployer pays high in many cases because he cannot
help it. It is not exactly the " Union" which he at
all times fears, but the scarcity of hands—a circum
stance which always commands a high rate of wages.
There have been no new strikes lately, nor ate any
contemplated at present, so far as we know. No trade
is overstocked ; on the contrary, the orders' for ma
nufactured goods cannot be filled.
Man y 'workshops are compelled to cease work en
tirely, because there can be found no- laborers to
execute it. The loss to a number of firms by this
circumstance has been quite serious of late. We
know of one that took a contract for the building of
a large steamship, about two years ago, which was
to have been delivered in eighteen months, wider a
penal de l iver e d . 1000 for each day after that time, if not
then The profits expected to be made by
the contract were not only swallowed up, but a very
serious financial lom ensued. It was not on account
of any incompetency or defective management that
the ship was not delivered in the appointed time.
The highest wages were offered for machinist;
but, they were not to be had at double the
amount which even a Trade Union would de
mand. If a Union could have furnished men
in an instance like that, they would have been
doing a good, alike beneficial to employer and sem
ployee. The opposite effect will be witnessed when
the country is restored to peace. Thousand. of men
will be anxious to return to their old callings, the
markets will be overstocked, and it will require
more strenuous exertions than any of the Trade
Unionist!, have yet put forth, to keep prices to a
level that will secure the necessities of life far the
workmen in general. The stove and hollowware
moulders is the only body of men 141 W on a "strike"
in this city. They have been nearly a year engaged
in it, and have not succeeded in bringing the
"bosses" to reasonable terms. They allege that the
employers have more orders than they can fill, and
are willing to forego the profits which might accrue
from thiersource, in order to break down all combi•
- nations Of workmen.
There were about four hundred moulders thrown
mit of work by this strike, and none have goneback
to work. Many of them, however, have entered the
army, and are as good soldiers as the service can
boast of. There are six shops engaged in this busi
ness, only two ol which are in working order. The
remainder hold out against the strikers, from what
motive is best known to themselves. If they prefer
cessation of labor rather than employ workmen who
dictate their own rate of wages, which the latter
claim only as fair remuneration, it is a subject about
which none other. should complain.

A hearing took place yesterday afternoon, in

Four colored persons, two men and two women,

of robberies at the residence of Mx. John Livezy,

Which may be condensed as fellows a lie testified
that his auspicious were aroused against these par

tain blue flannel wrapper, and this was also missing;
he did not know what bad been stolen ; he did
know that the closets, trunks, chests, bureaus',
wardrobes, Were pecked with clothing of various
kinds, much of it costly; and he also knew that a
very large amount of these things had been stolen.
Some articles that had been recovered byDeteotivea
Henderson and Carlin at the residence of one of the
parties, 217 .Prospwous alley, were displayed. Mr.
Livery identified two pairs of worked slippers
which he knew belonged to his wife, and were La
his house within the last three months—he also re
cognized some garments that belonged to his wife
and mothevindaw.
Detective Hehdereon testified as to the recovery
otthe goods, among which were a lot Of silver
spoons, sayer butter knives, sugar tongs, gold
pencil, &c. The - latter was inseribed J. Ely to Ann
Ely. It was stated that one of the parties lived at
one time in the family of Mr. Ely.
Chief Franklin at great length detailed his plan of
Operation to find out the partial. It seems thee
letter addressedto the gook enarly• ed in the house
of Mr. Livezy got into his poen on. It was writ
ten by parties in 'Stanford, Connecticut, and set forth
that the cook need not give herself any uneasiness
About the things she had sent there. It was on this
letter that the Chief based his .operations. He dlr.
gulsed himself as a military man, and, passing him
self off as Adjutant General Pontine, of New Jer
sey, went on a tour to procure the services of first
class cooks. By- this means he finally had a talk
with defendants, separately and collectively.; then
had one or two arrested suddenly by a detective ;
still he pretended to be Adjutant Perrino; visited
the prisoners in the station, and thus, by continued
efforts, found out something which seemed to au
thorize him to search, the house at 217 Prosperous
alley. The Chief further stated that he had . de
spatched Detective Carlin to Stanford, to search for
supposed stolen goods. The detective telegraphedthat
no goods were found, and that he would return in the
next train. The parties were held to nominal bail
to a await further hearing. SO far, there does not
seem to be any evidence implicating the defendants
in this robbery at Mr. Livezy's house. The de
fendants allege that all the things recovered at the
house in Prosperous alley were given to them by
their owners, with whom some of the defendants
had lived in a domestic capacity. The whole affair
is very strange.
Discharged.
The young man, Keepers, who had been under
arrest for some time, on the charge of the larceny o f
$ll6 or 118 the property of Mr. Putnam, the particu
lars of which have already been published, was yes
terday discharged, there not being, in the opinion of
the Alderman, sufficient legal evidence to warrant
his detention.

Restoration of a Kidnapped Child.
On Monday last, a little boy, 6 years old, son of
Mr. M. Abrams, of Philadelphia, suddenly disappear
ed. It has b een ascertained eines the abduction
that a - man named Smith took the child to New
York and put np at the Market House, No. 146

to make hie appearance, and on Wednesday, the
proprietor, find in g that the boy had been kidnapped
from his home, notified the detective police of the
facto, and was advised to take the boy to the Cen
tral office. In the meantime, Mr. Abrams, the fa
ther, arrived in New York, and applied to Inspector
Carpenter for assistance in hie search for . hie child.
He was directed to the detective office, and on in
quiry there, he was overjoyed to find Ms son await
ing him. The meeting between the father and child
was very affecting. It is alleged that Smith VIM
prompted by malice to steal the child away.
