SATURDAY MORNING, OCT. 20, 1860
Dear Tom, my brave, free—hearted lad,
Where’er you go, God bless you;
You’d better speak than wish you hurl,
If love for me distress you.
To me, they say, your thoughts incline,
And possibly they may so ;
Then once for all, to quiet mine,
Tom, if you love me, say so.
On that sound heart and manly frame
Sits lightly sport or labor, '
vad-humured, frank, and still the same;
To parent, friend, or neighbor.
Then why postpone your love to own
For me, from day to day so,
And let. me whisper, still alone,
“Tom, if you love me, say so 2’"
flow off. when I was sick, or sad
With some remembered folly,
The sight. of you has made me glad,—
And zhen most melancholy!
Ah! why will thoughts of one so good
Upon my spirit prey so?
By you it. should be understood—-
“Tom, if you love me, say so."
Last. Monday, at the cricket-match,
No rival stood before you;
In harvest, time, for quick dispatch, .
The farmers :21! adore you:
And evermore your praise they sing,
Though one ching you delay so,
And I sleep nightly murmuring,
“Tom, if you love me, say so.”
Whnte’er of ours you chance to seek,
Almost before you breathe it,
I bring will] blurhes on my cheek,
And all my soul goes with it.
Why thank me, then, with voice so low,
And faltering turn away so?
When next. you come, before. you go,
Tom, if you love me, say so.
When Jasper Wild, beside the brook,
Resenll'ul I'ou:.d us lowered, '
I of: lecall that liomlook
That quelieo the savage coward.
Bold words and free you uttered then,—
Would they could find their way so,—
thn those moist eyes so plainly mean,
“Tom, if you love me, say so.”
My friends, ’tis true, are well to do,
And yours are poor and fricndleas;
Ah, no! for they are rich in you,
Their happiness is endless.
You never let them shed a tear,
Save that, on you they weigh so,-
There’s one might bring you better cheer,
Tom, if you love me, say so.
My uncle’s legacy is all
For you, Tom, when you choose it;
In homer hands it cannot fall,
Or better trained to use it.
I’ll wait. for yours, but let me not
Nor wooed nor plighted stay so;
Since wealth and worth make even lot,
Tom, if you love me, say so.

The Jewish year 5621 has just been ushered
in, and we have passed through its opening
solemnities. The Hebrews of the metropolis,
throwing aside for the moment all worldly
cures. josn faithfully in the ceremonies peculiar
to the people, which have been so perseveringly
celebrated and so carefully transmitted through
the many generations that have lived since the
destruction of Jerusalem and the banishment.
of its inhabitants. Not the least. Wonderful,
even of the many wonderful things at our day,
and a living proof of the truth of Christianity,
is the distinct and separate preservation, with
out the least shodow of a. national abode, of a
people numbering millions of individuals,
senttered throughout. erery division and district
of lhe world, possessing talent sufficient, not
only for self government, but for the general
advancement of civilizution, successful in any
branch of science or of art to which they devote
themselves, exhibiting a. fortitude in suti'cring
and an energy in favorable circumstances that
have excited the amazement, it’ not the admira
tion of all classes. They mingle continually
with the business men of difiercnt notions, aid
in the formation and support of various gov
ernments, render their assistance almost when~
ever and wherever required, and yet remain
completely isolated, maintaining a pride ofori
gin thatalmost forbids sympathy or pity. In this
city, and generally throughout this country,
where their rights are never invaded, they live
so quietly that unless one goes mto their
quarters, he seldom meets with them. Few of
our citizens know them socially, and all are too
willing to believe Shylock their true type. But
although, as ti. whole, the Jews have neglected
education, and comparatively few have accepted
the moons of mental improvement placed within
their reach by the governments under which
they live, some have stepped forth fromthe
ranks, and braving the Christian prejudices
that have been accumulating for ages, have
drawn the attention of mankind, and left their
names on the page of history. Such instances
are not very common, been-use the Jews, for
the most part, are so content to live quietly
and unostenteliously, and those who are re
markable for their intellectual powers are so
inclined to give their undivided attention to
the sludv of ancient records and commentaries.
Still the Jews in Europe frequently make
valuable contributions to literature and art,
and it is not unusual on the Continent to find
them holding prot’essorships. Such names as
Rothschild, Disraeli, Beethoven, Mendelssohn,
and Rachel, illustrate the variety of their
talents and the greatness of their capacity,
and there is no reason to douot that, under
favorable circumstances. and with such incen
lives as a. fixed national habitation only could
furnish, they would develop the some genius
that. was manifested by their early lawgivcl'fiy
generals, and historians.
In this city their number, at present, is about
43,000, of whom the majority are rather indi
gent, and either because they beg}? the battle
of life while very young, 01‘ are alrluclined to
social intercourse with others, _(having no dis
tinct literary institutions of teen own,) or both,
they remain uneducated. Theirnntioncl stu
dies. even if generally pursued, could not give
that, knowledge of the sciences without which
it is impoSSihle. tukeep pace with the rapid
strides of clvihzatlon in our day. The minds
of such students may be cultivated, but they
are not enlightened.
There are seventeen synagogues in New York.
The first was erected in Mill St., now South
William St, in 1729, where the congregation
worshiped for more than a century. Some
twenty-five years ago or more they removed to
Crosby St, and recently have dedicated a, new
synagogue in West Ninleenth Sn, said to be
more imposingin appearance than any other
in the United Stat‘es. IL isbuilt of Nova Scotia
stone, in a. style combining two orders of orchi
tecture—lhe lonic and Corinthian. The entire
cost of the structure and its site was about
$llO,OOO.
Thiscily, also, contains a. hospital, supported
at the expense of the Jews; and us a proof of
liberality really existing among them, for

which they are rarely credited, it may be men
tioned that. two years ago they raised $lO,OOO
as the net. proceeds of a. ball given to sustain it.
Preparations are making to repeat the experi
ment. Sim months ago $20,000 was raised by
the Jews or this country, numbering but
150,000. for their breihren in Morocco, who
were suffering from the war then raging.
In Philadelphia. 15,000 members have estab
lished seven Hebrew congregations, two edifca
tional and eleven charitable associations, and.
a. publication soiciely. '
The Jews are scattered over the whole coun
try, but are more numerous in cammercial
cities and towns. Throughout the West, es
pecially, Wherever there is a chance for profi
table trade, they have insinuated themselves.
Two synagogues were recently dedicated in
Cincinnati. Wherever they go, their institu—
tions accompany them as invariably as the
household gods went with the ancient Romans.
Since the commencement of the present.
month, the Jews in this city have been almost.
constantly occupied in the observance of various
solemnities. The Feast of Taber-uncles, the
Feast of Palms, and the Feast of the Low, have
followed each other in quick succession. In a.
few Weeks they will be called on to observe the
Feast of the Dedication of the Temple and then
a Fast commemorative of the Destruction of Jo
rusalem. What a world of emotion the celebra
tion of these revered ceremonies must. excite!
How must- the Jew mourn over the departed glo
ries of a nation once so powerful and renowned,
now weak and fallen! Is it alter all very
wonderful that men who can trace their lineage
to such an origin, should cling with tenacious
vigor to their rites and retuse to blend with
others of the race? Is it. strange that they
wish to preserve pure in their reins the blood
of Moses, of David, of Solomon, and the Pro~
ph'ets?
Jerusalem was taken by Titus on the Bth of
Snitcmber‘ A. I). 70. Ninety-seven thousand
prisoners were captured during the siege. and
eleven thousand died of starvation. The loss
of the Jews in killed. wounded and missing,
during the war. is computer] in round numbers
at 1,400,000. The Emperor Verpnsinn disposed
of the Jewish lands for his own use. coni;.elled
the conquered people to pay into his treasury
the usual tribute ot the sanctuary, and cut 011'
the branches of the House of Judah that he
might foreter deprive them of the hope of de
livernnoe from a. coming Messiah. Broken
hearted, they left the land they loved so well,
never since to-rcturn. They have wandered
over Africa and settled on its Eastern and
Northern coasts, have traveled far into Asia,
within the walls of China, have sought the
frozen regions of Russia, the beautiful lands
of Spain and Italy, and the wild mountains of
Switzerland. have taken up their abode in Ger—
many aml Holland, in France, England, Swo—
den, Norway—in fact, in every land under the
sun—everywhere abused and persecuted with
a severity and malignity that know no parallel
in history. During the past century, however,
one government after another has made con
cessions in their favor. and under this milder
treatment they have rapidly increased in num~
bets and in influence. Even Russia has ac~
knowledged their importance as citizens. and
2,000,000 of them dwell within her empire.—
In Germany they are 'rery numerous; the chief
magistrate of Hamburg is a Jew. Poland 'is
th eir stronghold; within its formerlimits 1,000,-
000 of them may be counted. Nearly half a
million are in Morrocco; 90,000 in Constanti—
nople; 70.000 in Italy: 40,000 in England.-—~
The whole number on the globe is variously
estimated at from 6,000,000t9_12,000,000; the
probable number is 8,000,000.‘ Of course no
pretensions to accuracy can he made in such a.
computation. There are tribes said to be run—
ning wild in the interior of Africa.
'A movement has been initiated at Paris, with
the knowledge, and possibly at the instance of
the Emperor Napoleon, for the purpose of or
ganizing the wholepeopleinto associations. and.
establishing communication among them——
They have long cherished the expeclntion of

Tbe Turkish Empire is falling in pieces, and
the occupation of the ancient; Canaan by an
essentially trading people. when the Suez canal

A Pour}: Invrm'rloN Doorman—A contrib
utor to the Spirit oft/lie Times, thus describes a
scene at the Anthony House, Ark: .
Late one bitter-cold night. in December, some
eight or nine years ago, L. came into the bar
room, as usual, to take his part in whatever
was going out For some reasons the crowd
had dispersed sooner than was customary, and
but two or three of the towust'olks Were there,
together with a 'slrangrr, who had arrived a
half-hour or longer before. and who, tired, wet;
and muddy, from a long Arkansas stage ride,
his legs extended, and shoes off, was consoling
himself with two choirsnnd a nap. opposite the
centre of the blazing log fire. Any one who
has traveled until 10 o’clock, in a rough winter
night, over an Arkansas road, can appreciate
the comfort of the fruition before that fire
place.
The drowsy example of the stranger had ile
elfect on the others, and L., who took a. sentin
the corner, for lack of conversation was reduced
to the poker for amusement. lie poked the fire
vigorously for a. while, until it gut red hot, and
becoming disgusted, was about to drop it and
retire, when he observed the great too of the
stranger’s feet protruding through a. hole in
one of his socks. Here was a relief to L. He
placed the glowing poker within a foot of the
melancholy sleeper’s toe, and began slowly to
lessen the distance between them; one by one,
the others as they caught the joke begun to
open their eyes, and being whitened, mouths
expanded into grins, and grins into suppressed
giggles—and one incontinent t'ellow's into a.
broad laugh. Closer and closer the red hot
poker neared lOWnrcl the unfortunate tee. The
heat caused the sleeper restlessly to move his
hands. L. was just about to apply the poker,
when a. sound of click! clielm’.’ arrested his in
tention. He looked at. the stranger—the latter
with one eye open, had been watching his
proceedings, and silently brought a pistol to
bear upon L. In a. voice just audible he mut
tered, in n. tone of great. determination.
“Jest burn it! Burn it! Jest bum it! and
I’ll be d—d if I don’t stir you up with ten
thousand hot pokers in two seconds!” .
L. laid down the poker instant-er and re
marked:
“Stranger, let’s take a drink I—in fact gen
tlemen, all of you." _
L. afterwards said they were the cheapest
drinks he ever bought.
