The Jewish Passover..—On Wednesday
evening Mat commenced the observance of the
Passover or Paschal Festival, also called the
Feast of Unleavened Bread, instituted to com
memorate the deliverance of Israel from the
bondage of Egypt. It is the first commandment
the Lord vouchsafed through Moses to the Isra
elites. Thus It is a rabbinical theory that the
twelfth chapter of Exodus, in which this has
been declared, is the commencement of the law
of Moses. In this chapter, in verses 14 and 20,
It is ordained' "Seven days shall ye eat unleav
ened bread, even the first day shall ye put leav
en out of your houses.• • • Seven days
shall there be no leavened bread found In
your houses, for whosoever eateth leavened
bread, that soul shall be cut off from IsraeL"
There is one necullar observance,. which, more
than anything else, distinguishes this festival
from all others in the Jewish Calendar, viz:
The observances in the family circle on the first
two evenings. On these evenings the Jewish
families assemble in their dwellings around a fes
tive board, on which are spread horse radish, to
commemorate the bitterness of bondage; en
esx, In commemoration of mourning for the de
stroyed temple; greens to commemmorate the
blessings of God; a mixture of apples, almonds
and cinnamon, resembling mortar, In remem
brance of the loam used by the Israelites in
their works during their bondage in Egypt; and
a bone from a lamb to indicate the Paschal sac
rifice. After blessing the wine,
the history of
the exodus from Egypt is related and hymns and
psalms recited in a joyful tone in honor of the
grand meaning of the dity. These gatherings are
carried on in every house, and are even strictly
observed by the less religiously inclined.
Fire on Penn Street.—Yesterday morn
ing, between one and two o'clock, the large one
story brick warehouse occupied by Mr. Daniel
Wallace and others, was discovered to be on
Are. The alarm was given by - the watchmen,
but although the firemen and steamers were
promq on the ground, all efforts at saving the
bull proved unavailing. However, much
valnab e property adjoining was saved from de
struction by the vigorous working of the fire
department.
Mr. Wallace was the lessee of the building,
In which he did a commission business. There
were stored in the house about 1,000 barrels of
flour, 500 barrels of whisky, 1,000 barrels of salt,
a large quantity of tobacco, over 3,000 empty
oil barrels, and a large quantity of other goods.
His loss le estimated at 410,000, upon which he
has an insurance of 400,000, divided between the
Arctic, Continental, People's and Monongahela
companies.
Mr. Peter C. Reneirs, marble cutter, occupied
a portion of the warehouse fronting on Penn
street. He had a large amount of finished
work on hand, and will lose heavily. He Is
partially insured.

pied ^ small building adjoining the warehouse
on Wayne street, lost about three thousand
dollars—no insurance. Mr. Colville commenc

large stock of flne marble on hand.
A Small portion of the building, adjoining
Seller's pork house, was occupied by a black

not ascertain. He lost everything. -
The warehouse belonged tote heirs of Dr.

ten years, which had nearly expired. The bull
