For while Aristotle declared thut tiechantos should not be adjiitted to the rights of cltizenship iu his ido) ropublie, apd, Indeud, mualotulaed that on! slaves should practico Buudicraft, tho toxt-bool of Rabbinisin Sponks euthudiastionliy OF tho dige pity, oF enue ia or Grout i Works it beno hlin who: eu nt" Shove work, ‘Though’ ae famine Just goven you not enter the it will houge of d mechanic.” The Jowish sages declurod {ea auty inouinvent upon every futher to tick his aon & tneebanieal trade; and, with aumothing of Ortental byporbole, Huey, bo fall to teuch iis gon, it isus though be ene vorayed blu to robbery uch adinonitions had the desirod effect; for thera ts burdly one aye or tandicraft practiced Ia those days of whieh wo donot dnd able reprosentutivod auoug uur people, It would seem, also, as though thesu diferent tradvs ussociated themecives in guilds: for there oxtated iu Jerusulem a Syuuyoy oF the Coppursiuiths, a Streotot the Bakers, tho Gate of the Carpenters, 8 quarter of tho alty ez- clusivcly inhabited by potters, In the grand baalllea Bynazo of Aloxandria separate pore dons of the buitding were assigned vw the ullvur- smiths, Weaverd, and other trades, und woea a foreiguy vporative cauie to % city by seuted biwself uoxt the mowbers of hie crutt, aud was supported by them untll be bu continues Audit obtained employment.

Yet wo meet with no less striking, though perhaps less fa- mous, counterparts in tho records of abbintsm. When tho ‘Treasurer of tho ‘Temple went to ane nounce to Phineas that ho had been choses IHigh Priest, hu found him polishing stones, Wher Gamalte tho President of the Suntedrin, went to abhi Joshua to crave his, Barden for some slight that had been offered him, be found bim amid tho grimy surroundings of his smithy. Hence Josephus in bis treatise ngainst Aplon was able to say truly of hls contemporaries that thoy applied inomsolves exclusively to mechan- Jealoccupations, and to ting thy xoll of thelr fritltful country. Nor tn there any tracy In Ro- man Iitorature and in tho decrees of Bn Ora to show that the Jews in thoxe days follow commerce ‘or dovoted thomselycs to money Tending. History declares It as 0 positive fact, and Prof, DOtinger insistaan it with nll empha. als, “that tho Jews did not embrice trade and coinmerce until thoy were Aetnully competted to doso, untll thoy were excludod from followin mechanical occupations by the cetablishment. of sullds, and [twas made absolutoly finposalble for thom to practice upriculture, bocuuse thoy were not allowed ta hold land.” A very triatworthy evidence of tho fact that the Jews nro not by naturo averse to mechan feul labor is afforded by our knowledge ot the pursuits in which mnny thousands of the Jews in Russia are enynyed—o matter to whieh I apatl advert anon.

Paun, Minn, Dec. 2.—Last Sunday the ‘Villago of Durand, Wis., famous as tho econe of the lynching of Ed Maxwell, was visited by n terrible conflagration which swept nway tho ‘entire business portion of tho place. Situated twenty-two inites from a railroad or telegraph, it was not until Monday night that the news of tho firo reached the outside world.

A STRAGGLING NUCKET 1.1INE was formed from the river up to the Burton bullding, but it soon became apparent that the only reasonable hope was to savé tho contents of the building, for the fire was under auch headway that no bumnan means available in the place could check it. The scone was frightful. Sheets of flame were torn from tho seething masa and swept off high in tho alr, Bhingles and clapbonrds wero carried whirling away up tho street to fall on other buildings. Suddenly the fire leaped a Dluck's Jongth and across the street, and began hacking up ugainat tho wind, It was then clear enough that tho whole business part of the village must. go, and every effort was mudo to get a8 much as possibte of the stocks and gouds before the flames came along.

This fret recatted to the ininds of the people of Durand and vivinity the threatening letter to the Ploncer-P reas, slned “A Voice of Justice,” and a Ploncer-Preas rep- resentative made diligent {uquirics to learn who tho author of the threat could be.
