El -1* JU-L ftBM.111 - THAT EBREW JEW. BY BRF.T 11 ARTE. Tliereonce was a tradesman renowned asa screw, Who sold pins and needles and calicoes too, Till he built up a fortune?tlie which .is it grew Just ruined small traders the wholcciiy throughVet one thing he knew, lletween me and you, There was a distinction 'Twixt Christian and Jew. Till he died in his mansion, a great millionaire? The owner of thousands?but nothing to spare For the needy and poor, who from hunger might drop, Ana only n pittance (o clerks in liis shop. But left it all to A Lawyer, who know A subtile distinction 'Twlxt Ebrcw and Jew. This man was no trader, but simply a friend t)l* this (lent who kept shop, and who, ncaring his end, Handed over a million?'twas only his due. Who discovered this contrast 'twixt Ebrcw and Jew For he said, "if you view This case as I do. There is a distinction 'Twixt Ebrcw and Jew. "For the Jew is a man who will make money through His skill, his Jinessc, and his capital, too, And an Ebrew's a man that we Gentiles can 'do,' So you see there's a contrast 'twixt Ebrcw and JewEbrcw and Jew, Jew and Ebrew, There's a subtile distinction 'Twixt Ebrew and Jew." So lie kept up his business of needles und pins, But always one day lie atoned for his sins, But never the same day (for that wouldn't do) That the Jew faced his God with the awful Ebrcw, For this man he knew, Between ine and j'ou, There was a distinction 'Twixt Ebrcw and Jew. So he sold soda-water, and shut up the fount Of a druggist whose creed was the Sneceli r.u tlie Mount, And lie trnflickcd in gaiters. and ruined the trade Of a German whose creed was b.v Great Luther made. Rut always lie know, Between me and you, A subtile distinction 'Twixt Ebrcw and Jew. Then he kept a hotel?here his trouble began? In a fashiou unknown to his primitive plan ; For the rule of his house to his manager ran, "Don't give entertainment to Israelite mail." Yet the manager kucw, Between me nud you, No other distinction 'Twixt Ebrcw and Jew. "You may give to John Morrisey supper and wine, And Madame N. N. to your care I'll resign ; You'il see that these Jenkins from Missouri Flat Aro properly cared for; but recollect that Never a .Tow Who'd not au Ebrcw Shall take up his lodgings llcre at the Grand U. wear : You'll pcriuil the Vau Dams at the waiters to swear; You'll allow Mis* Decollete to flirt on the stair; llut as to nu Israelite?pray have a care, For, between me and you, Though the doctrine is new. There's a business distinction "l'wixt Ebrew and Jew." Now, how shall we kuow ? Prophet, tell us, pray do, Whore the line of the Hebrew fades into the Jew ? Shall we keep out Disraeli and take Kothschild in ? Or snub Meyerbeer and think Vordi a sin ? What shall we do? Oh, give us a fow, Points to distinguish 'Twixt Ebrcw and Jew. There was One?Heaven help us !?who died in man's place, With thorns on his forehead, but Lovo iu his face, And when "foxes had holes" and the birds of the air Had their nosts in the trees, there was no spot to spare For this "King of the Jews." Did the Romans refuse This right to the Ebrcws Or only to Jews ? The Best Leuacy eoi^ Sons.? Every parent is anxious about the future of his children. This is u natural instinct. But in the days of luxury and speculation fathers make fatal mistakes in regard to their sons. Even self-made men who have won success through toil and hardship, by a mistaken affection, withhold the discipline that made thom what they are, and which is absolutely necessary to develop the manhood of their boys. It is well and wisely said that .the best legucy a man can loa-re his children is the ability to take care of themselves. Fit them for active business or useful labor and you secure them au income for all time to come. This income is as mnch greater in value than the same income derived from iuhcrituucc, as useful employment is better thau idleness. A practical knowledge of some useful business, art or trade, sceuis indcpensablc in these days of sharp competition and hardship. And in selecting employment for your sons, one thing should bo clearly understood?the market is largely overstocked with clerks and salesmen, who expect largo pay for little work. Success aud affluence must be looked for in other fields. And those most promising in good results are identified with the demands, growth and development of the country, where the profits may be small but sure. "Small, steady gains lead to com petence and peace of mind." Give a young mau good moral habits and a practical knowledge of some useful business, and the chance is that he will not be long in working his way iuto a position where lie will realize 81,000 a year?an amount about equal to the interest on 815,000. Now a young man who earns 81,000 a year is in a far better position than a thoughtless and idle young spendthrift who possesses 815000, because lie is more useful and is making himself happy instead of miserable. What He Would Like.?As Deacon A., on au extreme)} cold morning in the old times, Wis riding by the house of an Infidel neighbor, Mr. Potter, the latter was chopping wood. The usual salutations wore exchanged, tho severity of the weather briefly discussed, and tho horseman made demonstrations of passing on, when his noighbor detained him with? "Don't be in a hurry, Deacon ; would you not like a glass of Jamaica this morning ?" "Thank you kindly," said the old gcutlcinan, at the same time beginning to dismount witll Jill t.lin ilpliltornfinn KnnAtniim o ilnonAn "Don't care if 1 do." "Ah ! don't trouble yourself to get off, Deacon," said the neighbor.' "I merely asked for tbe information. We haven't a drop in the house." The Deacon sighed, mounted his horse and rode off. Tiiouoht.?If a reflective, aged man were to find at the bottom of an old chest ?where it had lain forgotten fifty years?a record which he had written of himself when ho was young, simply and vividly describing his whole heart and pursuits, and reciting, verbatim, many passages of the language which he sincerely uttered,, would he unt read it with more wonder than almost any other writer could at his ago inspire ? He would lose the assurance of his identity under the impression of his immense dissimilarity. It would secui as if it must be the tale of the juvenile days of some ancestor, with which he had no connection but that of name. The "cullod bred'ren and sistcrin" were in the full enjoyment of a rcdhot revival in Uullit county, wheu some sinner threw a ripe hornet's nest through the window and the uieetiug adjourned without taking up a collection or "singin' de las' two lines ob do sockdolager beginnin' wid?
