The question now aeitating the Jewish world, o Earope as well as in America, is whether in recerving adult males as proselvtes into the Jewish congregation the ceremony of circum- ‘dsion may be dispensed with, and yet the con- versbe on an equal footing with the others who have complied with this requirement. The discussion of the question at the West srose from the following circumstance: M. -ggitz, Rabbi of a Jewish conereration at Milwankee, wrote to several Rabbis i other cities, and smong them Dr. - Felsenthal, of Chicago, asking their sdvice on a certain stateof facts. Some months efore, a _young man, the son of Christian pa- rents, but who rejected the Christlan religion in alits dogmas and forms, called on the Rabbi, sndold him that he accented as true the doz- msof Judaism, and stated that he was =bout . tomarry a Jewish girl of Milwaukee, and want- sdtbe Rabbito use his infinence to. facilitate emrying out bis wisbes. He had been for some time a visitor at the house of her parents, but . theyhad never suspected whatlus intentions were. Finally, when he acked their daughter’s wd, they, who were quite orthodox; refused thetr consent, and forbid him.the house. But thesoung people met. daily, and came o the determinstion to- marry under any circum- stances, even if they coald pot get the consent of the parents. Finally the latter yielded on condition that the youngz man would become a Jex. Therefore he went to the Rabbi, and uid he wanted to meke a pubdlic confession of Judsism; and he would promise, if it were de- sired, 10 bind himself in writing to educate in the Jewish .religion any issue of the mar- | vage: that is, to allow the male chil- “d&en to be circumcised, and that he would 20t interfere witn the wife in the performance o ber ovligations as 3 Jewess. He would him- £4lf join 8 Jewish congregation, be married by a Jewish priekt, ete., but Ec could not and would ot spbmit to circameisicn. The parents safd tlat they would consent to 2 marriaze under theabove conditlons, in case he could be re- - wived without ~arcumdsion. Therefore the Ratbi asks Dr. Felsentbal and Iis colleagues ‘whether, under these circnmstance, e can re- cdve the young man, .omitting cireumcision, 26 a Jewish proselvte; and. Ir so, in what way shall the admission taze place! Whether be wuld become a fall member of 8 dJewish con- erezation, aud whetber the Rabbi had the right loperform the marriage ceremony Dr. Felsentbal’s reply commences with a dis- @ssion of the question whether Judsism secks cowth through proselytes. Notwithstanding Lbe assertions of Max Mucller and some others, Le comes to the conzlusion, after an exhausting reviex of the subject, tbat the reception of woselstes is in no way contrary to the spirit or oty of theit. religion. Alfter comsidering va- Yins passages from the Talmud regarding re- opiion of proselytes and the neccssity of the Hreamcion, be says: We can therefore. after what has been said. 2ome only to the conclusion that mén who wish to e2taye from a religion which appears to them full of miernal cortracictions, untrue, and injurious, 0¢ who wish 10 cscape 10 8 religion of full truth, love, and perfect frecdum from dozmatism— 1 religion 1n which they will - find perfect and tme peace und gennine satisfaction—tbat such meashould be granted a dispensanon from cir- Gmeisjon. Naturally, before onc'lends a hand to Ttha conversion, one shouls be fally persunded that the step is takem homestly axd for parc Datives. Shonld there be any doubt, the prup- sbould be dixconraged. Yet there is one case in which it appears alvisa- Blenot 10 be go strict in the reccption of proselytes. Mited marriages oceur. pretty frequently in onr Uime. .

True, Judaism i3 sadly neglected and ignored by the young. The numbers of those who take o re- pard of its demands and claims are steadily in- creasing, while atheism and materinlism threaten with wholesale desertion. Indeed, the Jewisn religion, like any other at present, is in the midst of ‘s great crigis: its pulses ran very low. sut thes, will lemiency or weakness fn principle and an infusion of . foreign blood, 28 some theologions suggest, care- the enl?

No, 2nd a thousand times no. ~Let the dry leaves that are borne off by the wind_be_ever so many, if but the stem’ remains sound and strong. Judsism never did, nor will it ever care fora large number of its adbercats, if the soundness of its cardinal traths should be injured thereby. Whether upheld by mhany or by a few, it stands like Abraham for the unalloyed truth, though the whole world be on the other side. This is its mission for munkind, the very paroose of its existence. As & nation of priests, we have to impart our lofty traths sbout God and man to the wide world. but not to amal- gamate our blood with it. thereby jeopardizing our troet...

But then there i¢ no reason why he should be exempt from bearing the of Abraham's covenanton his flesh, as long a4 this is revarded as a token of consecration by the Jewish people in general. Yet, instead of facilitating and sanctioning conversions from mere sexual motlves, each_conscientious Raboi wil shrink from them.

SHAKER WORSHIP. STRANGE ANTICS-OF A FANATICAL SECT. Thi: New-Forest Shaker Community of Hor- dle, Eng., numbering eizhty persons, were re- céntly ejected tmm/cheir flelds by the Sheriff, and left with their’ houschold goods homeless and destitute on the highway. A correspondent of the London Teegraph gives the following account of their worship as. witnessed . by him- self: g ¢ A hymn was being sung in fair harmony as I took wny seat, its subject, in common with that of others which followed, having reference to Divine protaction in. thme of trouble. At its close came a short period of silence, brokenonly by the self felicitation of a productive fowl out- side, and then Mrs. Girling resd oneof the Psalms. As she shut the book a young sister started anotuer bymn, and I imagined that no mors than. the . ordinary se- quence of prayer, praise, and exhortation Would characterize ‘the service. But, in a ferw. minutes, a little” 0ld' lady—as to figure, crool 8s to expression, denunciatory—rosc and siowly rotated toward tbe open space, with 2 motion of the arms like that'of *blind man’ in the parlor game, Sighing heavily, she: groped her way toward Mrs. Girling, led her out, and then feil prone at her fcet- For g wminute or two—the singing, gome on all the time—Mrs. Girling looked at the prostrate form, thep ob- serviug, ¢ You ought vot to fall.’ raised the old lady, who began tn.emit sounds like those of 1he hen outside, at the same time crossinz and waviug her arms with #low and solemn motion. Suddenly & vouthful sister started up and com- menced a vigorous dauce. in seemine ecstasy. ¢King Jesus is in our midst to-day !’ exclaimed Mrs. Girliog, whereupon the hymn, *‘All bail the power of Jesus’ name,’ was rolled out in gladsomestrains.

A minute later and 2 oung lndy—for so her appearance and manner ‘entitied her to be cailed—sitting at a table ucar me, jomed in the exercise, with an expression of ‘face inconceivably wlad.

Her io- articulate-nolse, after some time, gave way to telugible speech, and iz then became evident tha she had the bailiffs on her mind. It was even a moot point whether she did uob _comnect imvseli in some manner with the myrmidons of the law; else, how could I explain the amount of attention bestowed upou the locality in whicn Isat? Oopce the oid Jady put her skinny fist cloge to my face, and demanded, With & con- centration_of emphasts worthy of Mr. F.’s aunt, ©Who sheil stand¢’.

A NEW APOSTLE-SILLER IN A RELIGIOUS RIOTIN ITALY. o Disnateh to the London Times.

We reccived news on Tucsday of an encounter between: the -public force and David the Saintat thehead of from two to three ‘thonsand Lazzarists, yesulting in the death of the prophet and one of his follow- ers, the wounding more or luss sefiously of eight others, and of four’of the police.+ But “\Vho is tius mew one asked.

A decree has been received from Pope Leo 15 being mide the material for much political capital. The prophet had chosentwelve apostics and surronnded himself by a_ large number of proselytes, who had built for him kind of half. Dbermitage, half church, on the summit of Monte Labro; and, in addition to this, he had’ founded another at Mont? Oro, to which he sent n legate. Bis creed is an extended paraohrase of the Nicean with alterations, somein Protestant sense; for lustance, it forbade auricular con- fession. Other tenetsare of a Socialistiecharac- ter. According to the social statute of his sect, the believers conferred upon themselves the umversality of their worldly possessions, their wives, aod children. Tney were divided ioto threc classes—nobles, landed pro- prietors, and peasants, or workmen without property. Al were alike bound to serve the Saclety and work for thelr living, the Society uuderiaking to maintain and feed its members, care for the intirm, and educate the youog ac-- cording ‘to their respective positions. A, members seceding within three years forfelte all their property. Until the cstablishment of the seven hermitages to be bmit at Monte Labro, Mont’ Oro, Pirenci, Jabar, Golgotna, Corsica, and Sivai, the members might lve in their respective homes, but they were to depend uipon the Socicty, leaving in its hanas the. man- agement of their property and the cultivation of-their lands. - All the members were to wear 2 uniform dress. The-details of the conflict are briefly as fol- lows: On the morning of the 18th the prophet, at the head of between 2,000 and 8,000 followers, started from Monte Labro processionally for the Village of Arcidosso, for what purpose is not yet fally evideut; but it is said with designs of Saytiung bat a peaceful character. More than a hundred of the believers were dressed in white tunics, similar to those worn in ancient times by the Jewish priesthood. At their head walked «David the Saint,” as his followers _called him, attired in a kind of half regal, half pontifical costume, a red tunic, a disdem on bis bead, and an iron-studded club in his hand. - As they \wet, they sang a kiud of refraiu, “Loog live God, the Christian Republic, and praise be to Christ, come a second ' time on _earth,’—" Christ, of course, being David Lazzarett. The sutnorities having been informed of the intended imovement, the mob.was met half way by .a_delegate of bolice, accompanied by, nine Carabineers, ~certaioly o most isui- cient farce, who invited tocm to dispersc. Upon this-Dayid cried out, ** L am the Kinz!” and ordered his followers to disarm the soidiers. As hie soke a discharge of fircarmns was made upon the police from a shelter on oneside, and a £hower of stones thrown .at them. Again the delezate .zave the requisite iutimation, which was followed by the prophet aiming a blow ot Thiny with bis club, and_then the police, finding themselves surrounded, opened fire, first in the air. and. then upon the crowd. It may, per- haps, be cousidercd fortunate that among the first to: fall-was the prophet bimself, struck with o ball folt in the forebead, and his follow- ers, seeing, thor lender down, gave. way, though in gufliclent, order to carry David and the other Woundedyith them. Four of the police being badly woundgd, they were not in a coudition to attemot any ‘captures. According tothe reports, the prophet and one of his followers died the same night. .
