More conscious thought has been de- veloped, more money has been expended, more sacrifices have been made, more in dividual burdens have been by the British Government for the benefit oi these classes for their education and refinement than all the Statesand the United States Government put together. “No American citiz'n can review the Queen’s conduct toward, or the relations ot her Government with the United States, without recognizing eyerywhere the kindly and eracious sentiment_which bas invayab'y characterized her.

He caused to be aa- | dressed to the British Minister resident at | Washington communieation which roughly required the restoration to liberty and the return to the deck of the Trent, | the captuzed conlederate Commissioners, | and with them an ample and humble | apology.

It was precisely such a diplo- | matic paver, and was so intended 1o be, as would have brought on war between Eng- land and the United Siates as a necessary consequence. | “Itieft and was designed to open to the | 1atter no way of decent retreat from a false M | position save through the gates of National | fear.

Levy delivered a lecture at the Geary-strest Temple vesterday morn- ing on the condition of the Jew under the Victorian era. He began by stating tbat when the young girl first succeeded William IV the Jews were praciically ostracised throughout all the British provinces. They were not a'lowed to be- come members of Parliament unless they wou!d take the oath of a Christian, and the same disabilities applied to all other office. They could not even be attorneys orbarristers-at-law. Four years after the coronation of Victoria Sir Francis Gold- smith became a barrister, and for a iong series of vears ske and her friends lavored the removal of all civil disabilities from the race. The speaker touched feelinely on the fact that the Jews have never had a better friend any where than 1in Vicioria, a woman of whom all people are proud by reason of her rure character, her tender and exemplary motaerhood and her deep and_tender insight into buman nature.
