JEWISH PEB8BCUH05 I* RUSSIA. This evening the citizens of New York City, withost distinction of creed, will hold a meeting for the purpose of expressing their sympathy with the persecuted Hebrews in tbe Russian empire. The call for the meeting has been numerously signed by the leading men of the country. If all the accounts of persecution be true, and nose of them are contradicted, the sufferera are entitled to all the sympathy and assistance which can be extended to them by the civilised world. The brutality inflicted upon these defenceless people is almost beyond description. A gentleman just arrived in England from Smilla, in the province of Godorno, in Southern Russia, has furnished the London News a description of what he has seen. The monthly fairs are usually the occasions upon which the attacks are made. When the conntry people assemble in the town the fanatical populace encourage them to drink freely and then incite them to attack the Jews. In one instance referred to the first places broken into were the public houses kept by the Jews. The casks were rolled into the etreetB, some of them smashed and the contents drank out of the streets. Warehouses and places of business kept by Hebrews were broken open and wrecked, goods of all kinds being thrown into the streets and trampled upon. Furniture and cupboards were broken and ransacked, Oae merchant had spirits valued at $38,000 emptied ioto the street. Dwelling houses were broken into and plundered, in every instance grossly maltreating the inmates. Tbe witness says: "I speak from my own personal knowledge of these fxcts, and from what I know, and I solemnly declare that there were no less than fifty or sixty women and young fii1"!8 outraged by the mob. One girl whom I knew intimately died from the effects of this revolting treatment. It is impossible for me to give any idea of the number of Jews killed, br.t the whole of the 2,000 families were attacked and numbers killed, especially in those cases where there was any attempt made at defense. The reign of terror in Smilla lasted on one occasion for thirty hours, there being no attempt on tbe part of the military or police to quell the riot. In Warsaw 2,011 families, numbering about 10,000 souls, were ruined. They include 246 publicans, 281 tobacconists, and other retail shop keepers, 818 workmen, and 43 employes. During the riots 292 liquor shops were demolished, 603 eating houses, warehouses and synagogues, and 393 private houses, all the property of Jews.

These are but two instances. Many others might be cited, but these are a sufficiency of the kind.

Notwithstanding the brutality of the persecution the acts of the mob are not without defenders. It is stated that there are two classes of Jews in Russia, Talmudist and Karaite, and that the latter are never harmed in any way. The Talmudist is accrued of a love of money and hsBte to get rich. This is the only excuse offered for the persecution, and it is certainly none at all for outrages and murder. It is certainly time for the Russion authorities to put a stop to such scenes, which are insults to civilization, and as such should be denounced by the civilized communities of the world.

Cobb'a bill to restore the railroad lands has gone to the judiciary Committee, and nothing further is expected to be heard from it. Theee bills against railroad companies are principally introduced for buncombe. Their authors make some show to have them passed, and then quietly allow the matter to drop. Ii they make a little capital out of their project they are content to rest upon their laurels and go before their constituents in that shape. Most of the bills relating to tbe Pacific railroad lands are looked upon with suspicion. Generally they are intended to cripple the road they directly attack, while the roads already established and rich in government lands would be benefitted by their passage. The Central and Union Pacific railroads are wealthy and want to defeat all opposition, and they are expected to be at the bottom of all legislation adverse to the other roads which are endeavoring to reach the Pacific.

General Thomas, L. Cliugman.of North Carolina, ia thoroughl} dipgueted with the democratic mle in his state and is willing to form any alliance which will terminate it. He reprepented hie state in the United States stnate for several years immediately preceding the war, and has been an ardent democrat for over thirty yeras. He has arrived at the conclusion that the bourbon managers in North Carolina are as thoroughly corrupt as it is possible for them to be, and is outspoken in his desire to crush them.

The sub-committea to whom the matter was referred have agreed to a bill to revise the tariff. It provides for the appointment of a commission of nine persons from civil life, who are given a sort of roving commission to do as they please and report to congress the result of their investigations and deliberations. The passage of such a bill will threaten no serious results.

It is becoming evident that when the trouble between Chili and Peru is settled, the latter will be shorn of her principal sources of revenue. The war has cost Chili about $30,000,000, most of which was collected from Peru, and io payment of the remainder she proposes to annex property valued at not less than $1,600,000,000.

Congress is endeavoring to purchase a valuable collection of old law reports and parliamentary debates belonging to the estate of the late Matt. Carpenter. The senate committee and jadges of the supreme court value them at $8,000, but Mrs. Carpenter wants $10,000.

Bro, Gardner on Oharity.

"What I was gwine to remark." began Brother Gardner as the meeting opened, "was to say dat do season has now arrova when de cry fur charity am heard in de land, an' people who hev a dollar to spare am 'spected to pass it ober to de poor. Fur de convenience of people whose hearts ache to do sunthin,' I have compiled a list of patients and will furnish it free gratis on applioashnn. De man who loafs all summer an' begs his way frew de winter am on de list. Do woman who sells her clothing fur money to buy whisky am on de list. Do families which support two or three dogs, a pig an' a dozen hens on de pie an' swcet-cake begged by de chill'en am on de list. On dat list hev put down men who will hand a coat or a west ober do bar in exchange fur drink. I hev put down men who spent deir days in sleep and idleness when laborers were being paid twelve shilling a day. I hev put down families who sleep on straw an' live on bread an' water, an' yet, if dey should be handed a dollar in money would use it all in purvidin' an oyster supper. If I had time I could make a list which wouM prove dat nine-tenths of de charity subjects in Detroit am de basest frauds, an' dat ebery dollar placed in do hands of de Oberseer of de Poo' am blackmail on taxpayers. When de father of a family kin airn from a dollar to twelve shillin's per day, an' do mother from fifty cents to a dollar, what right hev dey to ask fur charity? If a man am old and poo' we hev a county house fur him. If a poo' man am sick we hev hospitals. Wliea a child am left an orphan we hev homes an' asylums. "De hull subject am a fraud on workin' people. We am simply offerin' a premium on loaferism, laziness and degradashun. Ebory time wo hev increased our poo' fund we hev increased de number of beggars. Ebery dollar bestowed upon a beggar makes him hate work so much de harder. A child who sees his parents live on fraud and beggary am sarlin to cotch do same ideas and practice de same principles.

Follor de people seen de oftenest at de Poo'master's an' you will find neighborhoods whar' do most petty thievin' am practiced an' do inos laziness am indulged in. "When death enters do family of a workin' man ho may want a loan. When a workin' man meets wid an accident his income stops, and to tide him ober de gap am a bounden^ dooty. When charity goes beyand dat it supports fraud and breeds vice."

Good-Night,

How tenderly and sweetly falls the gentlo "good-night" into loving hearts, as members of a family separate and retire for the night. What myriads of hasty words and thoughtless acts, engendered in the hurry and business of the day, nre forever blotted out by its benign influence. Small token, indeed, but it is the little, courtesies that make up the sum of a happy home. It is onlv the little courtesies that can so beautifully round off the square corners in the homes of the laboring men and women. The sftnplo "I thank you, for a favor received, will lill with happiness the heart of the giver. True wealth is not estimated by dollars and cents, but by tho grHtitude aud affection of tho heart. If a home be happy, it is of heaven the truest symbol. If a home be happy, whether the owner possesses a patch of ground or a thousand acres, they who live there are indeed wcalthv beyond mathematical calculations. Then how much more lovingly arc the sablo folds of night gathered around the happy home. How much more confidently do its members reposo their weary body in the .care of Divine Goodness, smoothing their over-taxed minds to tho living realities of beautiful dreamland.

A Man Mysteriously Struok Dead, A friend described to us a remarkable scene witnessed by him at a religious meeting on Whidbjr island, W. T. A member of the church, while talking, called upon God to strike him dead if a certain statement made by him, in the strongest and most unequivocal manner, was not literally and exactly true. He had barely uttered the last word when he fell dead. Coming as this did in the church, and upon the leading member, after the making of such a declaration, the effect upon the congregation can only be imagined. It was subduing, terrifying, awful. The witness of such a scene can never again doubt the omnipresence and omnipoteance of God.— Seattle Cal, Fwt.

Washington. LAND FRAUDS,

WASHINGTON, January 31.—Senator Van Wyck has been collecting evidence to substantiate his charge that the Government is being swindled in land surveys by a ring which includes most of the Surveyors General. He has obtained a good many facts, and will present them in a speech aB soon as he gets the floor. Among other things he will show that the cost of the survey in the Western States, and the receipts for Beveral years past have been enormously out of proportion with tbe sales of land. His charge made openly in the Senate has stirred up the Government land officers in the West considerably. Benson, who has been connected with land surveys and transactions in the West for several years, is here, and is giving dinners to which Western members of Congress are invited. It is asserted 'by Senator Van Wyck, and those who are sustaining him in bis effort to reform the abuses which are alleged to exist in the land department, that Benson is here in the interest of tbe ring and to defeat Van Wyck, if possible.

THOSE WESTEBN NOMINATIONS. Some Republican Senators are very much disappointed because the nominations they expected have not been sent in Several Western Senators who called upon the President again to-day, in regard to appointments were ence more told that they would have to wait a few days, and they left the White House in anything bat good humor. Impatience at the President's delay in this respect is begin ning to manifest itself quite freely. There is much speculation as to his motive for delaying nominations, but nobody seems able to explain it. It is evident that the President aoes not inform the Republican Senators of his reasons for postponing nominations which they think ought to be made at once.

AT SEA ON THE TARIFF.

The sub committee of the House com mittee on Ways and Means reported to the full committee the bill known as the Kasson bill providing for a commission of nine civilians to be known as the Tar iff Commission, and recommended that it be favorably reported to the House by the full committee as soon as practica ble.

The Ways and Means Committee are at sea on the tariff question apparently, and it is plain that the promise made by Haskell, that a bill would be reported this week, will not be kept.

NOMINATED.

The President nomiuated the follow ihg officers to-day: Postmasters—Charles S. Moss, Franklin, Tenn. Perry Moore, Areola, Ills. Charles F, Martin Sycamore, Ills. Fen wick Y. Hedley, Bunker Hill, Ills.: Alferd Dickey, Crawfordsville, Ind. Edward Brown, Mount Vernon, Ind. Henry I. Whitmore, Wabasha, Minn.

THE MEXICAN MI8SION.

The friends of Col. Pitkin, ex-Marshal of Louisiana, claim that he will get the Mexican mission. He was an applicant for it under Prrsident Gaifield, and had very strong backing. Grant appointed him United States Marshal and he still hs Grant's friendship. Cahill, of St Louis, ia also asking for the place,

A RUFFLED SENATOR.

During the debate this afternoon on the 3 per cent, funding bill, Senators Sherman and Ingalls had a passage at arms that at one time promised to become exciting. Sherman maintained that there was no fund kept at the Treasury for the specefic purpose of redeeming outstand ing leeal tender notes. Ingalls replied that $95,500,000 worth of bonds had been sold to raise a fund for this very purpose, and yet the Senator from Ohio, who was Secretary of the Treasury when that sale was made, stood up and told the country there was not a dollar of that fund in the Treasury. Sherman lost his temper for a moment and declared that Ingalls purposely misunderstood or misrepresented him. He maintained that there was no precise fond set apart for the specific purpose of redemption. Ingalls, with perfect self control, and in a somewhat cutting manner, repeated his -construction of Sherman's language, and declared there was no misunderstanding it. He then read from the report of Secretary Folger, to show that it was the policy of tbe Treasury, and had been for years, to keep on band a certain reserve fund for tbe redemption of legal tenders. Ingalls' self control seemed to have a cooling effect upon Senator Sherman, and before replying he regained his equanimity.

HATM AMD HIS SHIP CANAL. Captain Eads says tho trans-continental railroads are endeavoring to defeat his ship canal measure in Congrese, and that the rtilroads have active agents at work against it. He said to night that when Page, of California, was appointed chairman of the Committee on Commei ce, he knew the ship canal bill, which had been referred to that committee, would not have a fair show. Therefore he got Buckner to moTe to discharge the committee from tbe consideration 0f the bill, and that this motion was adopted in the House about two weefcs ago. Captain Eads states that, notwithstanding this, Page appointed a sab-committee, with himself as chairman, to consider the bill, and at a meeting of thia aub committeelast night an adverse report was adopted. This morning at the regular 'meeting of the Commerce committee,

when Page propoecd to eabmit his adverse report, Buckner interposed and informed the committee that they had nothing to do with the bill that it was neither before them nor the House, and the committee, could not take aetion with reference to it. "This," said Eads, in conclusion, "shows what methods are being resorted to to defeat the bill." THE NORFOLK NOMINATION WITHDRAWN.

The President has withdrawn the nomination of Henry B. Nichels for Postmaster at Norfolk, Virginia.

Mr. Summerville being out at the time, the two first villains presented a revolver at Mrs. Sum' merville and demanded to know where the money was. She answered that they had none, when the first man said he knew a G—d d—n sight better. With threats they compelled Mrs. Summerville to go ahead of them from room to room under the threat of her life, and show them with a light the inside of the room where Mr. Summerville and wife slept. They found about $31. They still asked for more, and when the lady told them that was all, they, not satisfied, tore up the carpets and broke open trunks, and ransacked the house from one room to tbe other, but found no more money. Mr. Summerville has been doing business for different parties, and collecting money, and is guardian for some children, and the supposition is that these robbers thought that he had a large amount of money with him.
