4 Re reporter m a graphic description makes us Requatnted with the dramatis persone. They are im the whole about halfa dozen, Four of them are acting; onc is introduced for scenery’s sake, and tastly there is one, Who apparently has nothing to ao with the main crimical action “Sheeny Billy” ts mentioned only on account of bis, by no means , iaison with the foriora vicum in this . Now, isit not very curious in your re- r, that, Whilst as to the chiof actors in this Play not the stightest allusion ts made as to what religion they belong, this last one, who plays comparatively innocent part among the reat, is ttroduced to the public with the very improper vemark, “The fellow is a Jew!” If } was to draw from this very remark of your reporter a conciu- wien on the influence of the diflerent denomina- tions on criminal statistics, the result would evi- dently be favorable to Judaism; but far from me and from any sensible person to judge of the value ‘of religion by the misdeeds of those who go ast from it. Intolerance is little in accordance wit ‘the enlightened spirit of your journal. The more we are surprised when we meet in it narrow-minded ‘Sapegemons as the above, and the mote we feel called upon to censure them emphatically. Re- spectfuily yours, Rev. Dr. A. HUKBSCH. Diabolism in Nevada, To Tne Epitor oF THE HERALD:— You published in your last Sunday’s issue afew words from the Freeman's Journal concerning tne spirit manifestations im Nevada, The writer desig- mates the whole affair as ‘‘anmistakably diaboli- tal.” Now the Freeman's Journal commits a fla- frant impropriety, to put it in the mildest manner, im giving expression to any such opinion. It ill becomes the writer to give his humble opinion in the way he does when the Rev. Father Monague, Vicar-General of his diocese, who with one of two other priests was present when the above manifes- ns took place, deemed them worthy of hia most serious attention. He has since committed an account of the facts to writing, which he has presented to his bishop for his consideration. Be- Sides, there is not a single answer given in reply toany one question which is not in accordance with the Catholic faith, and to stigmatize the oc- vurrence as being ‘unmistakably diabolical” shows & want of sense and no lack of presumption. Trusting that the Freeman’s writer will be more cautious for the future, and will think before he teaps again, | remain yours, M.A. L. Ministerial Movements.

At Oberlin, where the fall term scarcely ever passes without more or less revival interest, there have been this season about @ hundred con- versions among the students, FORTY-FOURTH STREET SYNAGOGUE. iin Are Women Inferior to Men 1—Testimony of the Bible and of Modern Socicty= Sermon by Rev. Mr. Isaacs. The reconciliation of Esau and Jacob on the lat- ter’s return from his father-in-law’s house, as re. corded in Genesis, Xxxil, and xxxiil., was the sub- ject of the lesson read yesterday in this synagogue. Subsequently Rev. Mr. Isaacs preached on the death of Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, who was buried beneath Bethel under an oak, and the name of it was called Allon-bachuth—that is, the oak of weep- ing. (See Genesis, xxxv., 8.) It is tobe deplored, said Mr, Isaace, that this age requires something new every day, 80 that the minister must set him- self to think constantly. We have to-day the death of a nurse—Rebekah’s nurse. She died and was buried under the oak, as above recorded, Is it not strange that this story should find a place in the Bible, and is it not strange that it should be where it is in this book? Jacob had just left Sheckem and was on his journey to Canaan, He bad buta short time before WRESTLED WITH THE ANGEL and triumphed; he had met bis brother tn friend- ship and they had been reconciled, and now he stops on the way to bury his mother’s old nurse. orah must have been very old, as she was Re~ bekab's nurse in the days of her early life before she left ner father’s household, Tradition says that Rebekab ‘was: lonely in Canaan and had sent to Padov-aram fos her Saithfw) old uurge, why was LOW going with Jacob and his family to that land. But death cut her journey short, Nothing gives us 80 much pleasure in our loneliness as the sight of the old arm-chair or some such familiar object. And We all know what affection exisws between a faith- ful nurse and a child. And -we may judge that the tenderest affection existed between this venerable nurse and Jacob’s family. He calla the place where she was buried the oak of weepings—putting the word in the plural to show the great grief they felt at her death. This incident is here to show us that our religion 18 not pec in respect to the position that women occupy, We are sometimes charged with placing our women in inferior posi~ tions, he said; but we don't find it so in the sacred record. We have here an Sanne. and in the days of Abraham, too, we read o! telling that patri- arch to be governed by what Sarah uld say to him in regard to sending away Hagar and Ishmael. WOMEN ARE OUR SUPERIORS in many thi said Mr. Jsaacs. When Aaron asked for the earrings of the people in the wilder- ness, to the credit of the women, be it said that they did not part with a ae piece of jewelry, nor had they any hand in making the molten call which caused Israel to sin, Mr. Isaacs then re- ferred to Mirtam’s prawience in the camp of Israel and to the opi ication of the daughters of Zelophehad for a division of lands to them, to prove that women were held in equal esteem and posi ~ tion with men in the times of old. These and other illustrations that might be given showed that ition of importance in society in wat, the boarding house keeper, took care of the spies who came into her city an preserved their lives, It was @ woman who Watched over the seven sons of Saul when their re- mains lay decaying in the sun, so that the birds were not allowed to come near them betore they had been buried. Women were the means of pre- serving Israel a@ nation when the wicked King of Egypt gave an order to kill the male children that were born, And, indeed, the women of Isracl have been THE PRESARVERS OF OUR HOLY RELIGION, said the preacher, Women are our equals in many things and our superiors in many more. Let us look at them to-day, Are they inferior to men? Bier are above us in the synagogue—a sign of their equality at least, if not superiority. ‘They talk sometimes, and so do men. They are our equals when they respect God’s house and the sab- bath day. They are our inferiors when they clean house on Saturday to prepare for Sunday. ‘They are our inferiors when they forget their origin and their destiny. They are our superiors when they train up their children in the fear of the Lord, but they are inferiors when they forget God and His laws. Let, therefore, these words be impressed upon our souls, he said, and may all sin be erased from Israel. Amen and amen. “OUR OATHOLIO YOUNG MEN.” The Dominican Orator at the Brooklyn Academy. Having nailed every ‘thumping English lie” that popped up in the famous controversy concerning England’s right to govern Ireland, the Rev. Father Tom Burke has now turned his attention toward matters more congenial to him and less irritating to his countrymen. For the benefit of the Youn; Men’s Catholic Association, of Jay streét Cathedral, Brooklyn, created and fostered by Father Kiely, of that parish, the great monk will speak to-night at the Academy. His reputation a8 an orator, his high name as a historian and as & man will doubt- eal all the Academy to overflowing, “rain or shine, NEWARK FINANOES, The anxiety of the citizens of Newark over the state of city finances still continues, and has im- pelled the City Fathers to make several quieting statements. At the last meeting of the Common Council President Baker and Alderman Stansby made explanatory statements of the actual state of affairs, being simply elaborations of what was stated in the HERALD last Sunday. The city is anything but on the brink of bank- ruptcy, and if the taxes and assessments owing it were paid there would be no trouble. Mr. Baker said, after laying before the Council some figures prepared froin the City Auditor's book, that no merchant was better secured than the city. Both he and Mr. Stansby expressed themselves strongly in favor of improving the outskirts of the city, but not a word was spoken about the villanous cobble stones of Broad and Market street: GOVERNOR PAUKER INSPEOTS THE NEW “>.
