If there is any one reason which compels us to think and speak kindly of the Jews it is thatthey have suffered as no people have ever suffered.

Temple, the blood-red streets, the merciless | massacre of young and old without distinction | of sex, the extinction of the nation and the | expulsion of the people—no such story has The fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of the kingdom did not | mark the end of Jewish sorrow; they only | marked its commencement. Scattered abroad in all lands, compelled to straggle for exist- ence among all peoples, the J.wish people never unii! recent years found sympathy—they seldom found encouragement. Some of the grandest chaptets in that grandest of all his- tories—the history of the “Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire”—are devoted to the wan- derings and sorrows of the so-called murder- ers of the Son of God. The Roman empire, kind to all, generous to all, was cruel only to the Jew. When the old Roman empire fell Lovy, Chautanqua sympathiz23 so deeply aud so tenderly with New York. However, Winans came to the rescue, as, no doubt, the wise lobbyists knew he would, having by expe~ rience a keen sense of his lezislative wisdom. The one man power is curiousiy illustrated in this case. Tne physical power of James Irving brought the democratic party in the Assembly into a dilemma from which it seemed for a time almost impossible to extri- cate itself. The power of Winans, of Chautau- gua, soaring above all petty, party prejudices, obligations, pledges, round robins, and all those weaknesses of human nature, stepped in to relieve the democracy trom the imminent danger of going home without the means to pay all the office-holders and the host of claimants upon the treasury of this city and county, The name of Winans, therefore, and the Westera emp‘re, established by Char- lemagnoo and consolidated by the First Otho, became a fact, the conditioa of the Jew was worse than ever. To trample vpon him was aright; torob him was a duty; to spit upon him was every man’s privilege. When the Western empire went the way of its prede- cessors, and the modern States system took shape, the Jew felt that the bands of the tyrant were but multiplied, and taat his condition was more wretched than ever, In Italy, in Spain, in France, ia Germany, in England he raised his piteous cries to Heaven; but Heaven had no answer. The agony con- tinued; the wrong remained; the vials of wrath, apparently isexhaustible, still poured forth vengeance. If blood ever cried for vengeance, the blool of martyred Jews cries for vengeance to-day against the Holy Catholic Church. All through the Middle Axes, during the dominancy of Spain and up until the Reformation, the poor, wandering should henceforth be written in letters of gold—quo‘ation 110{—as the savior of the democratic party in the Legislature in its bour of trial, and the friend of New York ia its The Herald Inspiring Religious Thought. We have for a long time known and believed that the Heratp was leading and inspiring tho religious ideas and pulpit minis rations of the Christian ministers of this ciiy, but we have to-day an add.tional evidence of its worth in this regard to Israelites also. In the eloquent sermon delivered yesterday by Dr. Vidaver, and which appears in another col- umn, our readers may recognize certalo deprocated last Sunday, and the advocacy of @ pure life and a holy love, which we presented on Monday, fn the example of the Saviour, Jow, true to the instincts of his race, and | received a fiiting compliment in the carrying with him wherever be went wealth, | Pulpit of the ott FS street syna- industry and economy, looked to God and | @°@¥e yesterday. ‘There the ‘Golden Rule” ond the law of love were man in vain for mercy, Tae Reformation scarcely relieved him; for to the Jew Pro- testant Christianity baa‘ not until recent years been mors merciful than the Christianity of Rome or the Caristianity of Const sntinople. The wholesale massacres which have occurred in Spain, in Italy, 1a Germany, in France, in England, we care not to reproduce. The one marvellous fact which stands broadly out to- day and demands attention is that this people as earnestly enforced as they might be by any Christian minister in the land; and well might the Doctor point to the record of Judaism, which never erected a scaffold, lighted a fagot or organized an inquisition to silence inde- p:ndent thought and conscience. But it has glven martyrs by the thousands for iruth and for God. As we have on other occasions pointed out killed will be allowed to do what they please to them, With the abovo picture before us, showing determination on the part of the goverameat to force. the insurgenis to terms and equal determination oa tho part of the latter to res'st to the last, what hope is there that Paris will be spared other and more ¢errible secnes of bloodshed and desolation? It is evident that M. Thiers will not yield in any manner to those who have brought so much disgrace upon France since the war with Ger- many was ended, who have added so largely to the misery aud suffering entailed upon the French people, and in this determination we think he is pursuing the proper course. He has the strergih to carry out bis plans and is daily becoming stronger, while his opponents, with an energy worthy of a better couse, aro dai'y becoming weaker, without q chance even of strengthening their condition. The only hope of France now is in Thiers and his government, He and it must be maintaised, no matter what the cost. The insurrection must be put down, even if Paris has to be destroyed to accom- plish it. There is no other metiod that can be used, the day for coaciliation having passed. There must bo no sign of woak- ness, no wish to compromise; unconditional surrender must be the only terms given to those who now hold Paris, There is no other way in waich France can be saved, for a patched-up peace would only result in another revolution that would complete the ruin now 80 far advanced, Marshal MacMahon is evidently delaying the i final movement against the insurgents in order to have his command so uumerically strong as to render its advance irresistible. He is able to hold all the positions now occupied by his troops and to advance slowly. At the same time it is plain that he does not wish to destroy more property than the necessity of the day requires. His army is now being rapidly recruited by the returning veterans from Germany, and in a few days at tho utmost it will be in a condition to strike ‘a blow that, although costing the lives of tens of thousands, will restore order and tranquillit¥.o Paris and give a prospect of | better times for France. The advent of this period is now hoped for by every one, as it is, beyond all ques ion, the only method of ead- iog the present terrible condition of affairs in the great city. The necessity is a distressing one and the result of it borrible to think of; but desperate diseases require desperate reme- i dies, and there is no other method of reliey- ing France from her destroying malady than by adopting and carryins out the pian of Presi- | dent Thiers and Marshal MacMahon, That the | slaughter will be terrible if Paris has to bo carried by storm is certain; that an immense | amount of property will bs destroyed within the city ifthe bombardment continues much longer we all koow; but what of it? Why, it } Will be nothing in comparison to the good to be gain d by establishing the legitimate government firmly in power and restoring peace to the distracted, torn and bleeding country. But thero is another point to be considered, and the most imporiant one. What punish- ment is to be meted out to those who are re- sponsible for this terrible civil war? The tur- bulent spirits who aro always ready to apply the torch of discord, to fin the flame of revolu- | tion and plange their country into a state of | anarchy must not be lightly dealt with; they must be made an eximple of. There woald be no policy in being merciful to such wretebes ; nothing could be guined by passing over their | offence fn a lenient manner, No, on the con- to keep the city quiet for some time to come. No punishment can bo too great for those who have willingly and designedly caused the present civil war in Franoc, who have planned and carried out the events that have occurred since the city of Paris was evacuated | by a foreign for, and who bave causcd their | country to be plunged into the depths of dis- grace. We trust that their crime will be looked upon as unpardonable, as without pal- liation, and that their fate will be of a charac- ter to deter others from attempting like insur- { rectionary measures, and to strike terror Into | the bearts of those who may desire to further humiliate their country. The Reds of Paris must be kept under control by a sirong arm, America, for educational and disciplinary purposes and tho labor of pulpit propa- gandism. Tae agencies of the world move against all this. The opposing lay powers fiud expres- sion through the executive officers of the Italian government, ia a mongrel and effete Guaribaldianism, and the effusions of a news- paper press which endeavors to reconcile the eyes of the people of Rome to the flaunting dinginess of the stained binner of the Conti- nental “reds.” The Italian government seeks property and cash in Rome, The clerics de- fend the rigat of their successors. Church festival customs and services are interrupted designedly; and it is alleged that Garibaldi is consoled by the action. Gavaazi keeps quiet and decorous. Foreigners of distinc- tion seek Rome in crowds.

After that Miss Nilsson will spend the summer months with her friends at West Point, among the mountains of New England, Newport and other places of fashionable resort. Appre- ciating bighly our glorious country, she desires to se9 as much of it as possible and to mingle with American society. Asa proof of her appreciation of America and Americans she has invested larzely in property here, and wherever her professional interests may call her hereafter she appears disposed to identify herself with the future of the great republie, The musical world and all lovers of opera will learn with pleasure that we have such a brilliant prospect before us. No doubt the coming operatic season will be the theme of British Navy, with many of the officera of | conversation at the watering places during the Queen Victoria’s squadron of iron-clads, had reached the Holy City from Naples, Order and worth appear to be attracted toward the centre; disorder and demoralization repelled summer and that our fashionable society will make timely preparations for thisevent.

The manager properly insists alzo that the stockholders shall not sell or giveaway their seats, There are some otber conditioas with regard to the sale of libretios and other matters of less imporiacce, but which ought to be conceded to him. What is more reasonable? Wuiy should the stock- holders, like the dog in the manger, withbold these concessions to tho public and the manager for the sake of a trifling amount, when they can retain the rizht of holding their seats by only giving timely notice to thas effect? We can bardly believe they will be so selfish and show such disregard to the pub- lic, Let them come together and at once give cheerful assisiance to the establishment of against vice and iniquity, and yet onc of its most infamous forms has been uninterruptedly permitted to flourish in rank luxuriance. But Superintendent Kelso, like a municipal Her- cules, has set a good example in cleansing out the Augean stable of New York wickedness ; and lo! forthwith the scales of convenient blindness fall from the eyes of the Brooklyn authori.ies, and they bestir themselves to do good service ia the cause of virtue and inno- ecence—that is to say, virtue and innocence enirapped by the arts of siren Magdalens, It tensive or wide-reaching one, but we trusi it is but th» beginning of good things. There are many good, honest and plous people who think that panel houses should not be meddiled with, becauss they add another element of fear to the social evil, and because they serve as an additional warning to evildoers, ‘‘Serves him right,” say they, when the wild and dissolute firstborn of one of their church dacons is forced to come into a police court and appear against some Aspas'a or Lais, who bas robbed him of a sum which not even the terror of exposure can reconcile him to losing. To a man of the world no process of reasonig—sven among plous people, who are proverbiaily adlicted to in- correct and mischievous views about most things outside the pale of theology—caa be more absurdly ridicdlous, Dear, good people, don't you see that these paael houses thrive almost exclusivsly by the wealaess of Grat of- thoughts and ideas drawn from our editorials | tary, when Paris is once more in the hands of | fenders against puriiy—of groenhorns in vice? in the beginning of this woot.

Itis the quiet countryman or the virtuous, inexperienced child of religious parents, wo, having perbaps got his blood inflamed by a holiday and its spirituous adjuncts, boldly ventures {nto the den of these strange women, who, with smiles and soft words, lure men into nests of thievery. And in such a case as this the punishment is too terribly crael; it is alto- gether out of proportion to the offence. Nor has it any good results, The stinzs of con- science suffered by o realiy viriuous young man are keen cnough to alone deter him from farthcr indulgence in sensu- ality, So far as our experience goes, opera on the unpr-cedented seale promised. Let them remember it is the public in‘erest, the interest of our maznificeat metropolis and the cultivation of the high st musical taste for which we plead.
