ELOQUENT LECTURE IN BALTIMORE ON
THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL. BY IION. ZB.
VANCE.
Tho 1 icture of Gov Vance in Baltimore
last Friday night, was attended by about
eleven hundred people. It was delivered
under the auspices of the Bryan, Stratton
and Saddler Business College. Present
a T> Oi... TJ
were oenaujr nansuui uttiiis ouiie, nuns.
R. B. Vance and W. M.Robbins of North
Carolina, members of Congress, and other
distinguished gentlemen. The Baltimoro
Sun 6ays:
Mr. Vance started out be saying that in
giving a lecture Under the auspices of a
business college, he thought a fitting subject
would be the greatest commercial
people in the world. There i> a river in
the ocean (the gulf stream) of large expanse,
whose waters ebb and flow all unaffected
by the turbulent billows and furious
waves around ; and so there is a river
among mankind which refuses to mingle
with surrounding waters, and whose own
characteristics can be discovered with the
naked eye. This river is the Jewish people.
The history of the Jews is the history
of our people. They were the faithful of
God, and their ideas still continue to fill
the world. Just as the sun which sets
behind the hills reflects its glorious rays,
the thoughts of Israel, no more a nation,
still remain. m
We admire the ancient Greek and Roman
nations, but reject their God as idolatry.
We despise the Jews but reverence
the religion which they founded. For
thousands of years they have preserved the
same customs, the same forms, and cherished
the same ideas and institutions.?
Their exile has made them a commercial
people, and though persecuted by Popes,
Emperors and nations, they remain the
same. Aye, what a persecution ! They
submitted to cruelty in the narno of their
own God, within hearing of the hymns
their psalmists had song. With all their
persecution, the Jewish people are still
standing, though the stones of their temple
have fallen. What is the line of the
Pontiffs, to that great and glorious line of
faaac and the rest J. Tfy first pontiff. aa<L
lor that, the" sartolf of the world wcrts
Jews. Every Christian church of to day
is a graft upon the Jewish church, and
y.V* IA ti ttAvrothiaiAU til* I /. 10 T ll*
j CttWU Vlil lObiau pui tuuvt.J vuv r/vn # a
lecturer hore entered into a clear and logical
review of facts, showing that the
Jewish nation was the first to recognise
j oue God, one great governing and directI
ing power, that wasunsubjectivc to kings.
| The beauties and riches of Palestine, and
the condition of the Jews in ancient time,
wero told of with glowing language and
thoughtful expression by the lecturer.
In spoaking of the perfect government
of each and all the tribes of Israel, he
said they were allowed to carry arms,
elected their own chiefs, and could secede
from other tribes in confederates of their
own whenever desirable. The chief*
served without pay?either back or front.
[Laughter and applause ] They exercised
the inalienability of property, and when
the day of jubilee came all property reverted
to the original owner. Every fifty
years God, the King, assumed the soil
and gave to the descendants of the first
nossessor of the soil the right of their in
I _
hcritance. Thi* constant recurrence to first
principles is seen among ourselves, for we
havo learned nothing of government during
the past century. The ancient tribes went
in and out of the Union whenever they
pleased, and they had their slaves. [Applause.]
Jerusalem, lie said, still sits in solitary
grandeur on JuJea's hills, and the stones
of its temple, though crumbled, are reverenced,
and just us thought is more lasting
than granite, will remain revered to the
end. [Applause.] The pyramids may
| fade and fall away, and no deep-seated
remembrance will romain, but Jerusalem
shall always stand a brighter and more
j glorious monument than the towering
spire of any church in Christendom. Tho
wanderings and sufferings of these people
during eighteen hundred years are not to
bo pursued, nor would he as us a Christian
man wish it, for it staggers human
credulity to believe H all. And what
does their religion convey in this particular
? That the wrath of a religious bigot
is worse than the crudest tortures of hull.
Mr. Vance bore describcdjhe peculiarities
of the various classes of Jewstin different
countries, putting those iu fSurope
and America among the most intelligent
and progressive* Their great longmity.
freedom from m:ilari6us diseases, and peculiarities
of form were also spoken of and
described. Mr. Vance said that as a man
who had givun the subject the greatest
otndv and utmost attention he would us
" ?J
sert that the Jews to-day are the soberest,
most industrious, and moral people on tbe
globe. [Applause.] He said that be
never knew yet of a Je|r being imprison- J
ed for anything above J? misdemeanour?
[Applause.] They contribute much in
charity to the Gentile^ but never ask
them for charity in retirn. [Applause.]
The most they have ever asked has been
to be let alone. [Apjlause If a Jew
breaks down in busiue? they get him up
again, and he never saw a Jew that could
not read, write, and cotnpute figures, especially
the figures. (Laughter and ap
plause.j They do not se ik political power,
and though the greatest in the extent of
tbeir business transact pns seldom own
ships or property. They are always ready
to pick np and starts when the 4*J
arrives. [Laughter.] j
Great credit was extended the Jews by
tbe lecturer for their having been tho
first to benefit tbe worli by introducing
the bill of exchange. Whenever, he said,
tbe iron hand was takeajfrom their throat
they advanced. It wusionly of late that
a Jew vas announced trt nave a lease on
the Persian nation, and no country to-day
could war against the pgvrer of the house
founded by the Rothschilds. Christian
men are taught by Jewish rabbis, the
world has listened with delight to Jewish
song, the voico of Jewish orators is heard
in the courts and Senate and if it be true,
or half way true, that the persecutions of
the notion have been unjust, what have
we to answer for ?
True, in this enlightened country all
the restrictions have been removed
from the Israelites, aud are only
fastened on those whose forefathers founded
the land and bled in its freedom. [Applause.]
But there is adU a statute in
the book that should be removed if Jews
aro to be judged by their merits like the
children of the civil right* bill [laughter,]
who have always been serfc. [Applause.]
Tlio lecturer admitted that Jews had
faults as eitit jns, and beKevod that there
were Jew swindlers, but not enough of
them to compare with Christian swindlers,
lie had found that a Jew could not make
a living in New England, for Jonathan
with his knife and ahiogle could whittle

? . -m-. _
The Marvsls or the Ticiiborne
Case.?After the Tichbornc trials people
must overhaul and revise their ideas of
the impossible. Nothing has ever been
attempted so absurd, so insane one may
almost say, as the scheme of the Australian
butcher to make himself a baronot
and millionaire by simplo lying. He had
scarcely a single point to begin work
j upon. A young gcntlemnn had been
drowned at sea, who was heir to a title
and a great estate. His friends, convinced
of his death, gave his heritage to the next
of kin. His mother alone, refusing to
' despair, advertised for the uussing^one.
; The advertisement coming to the eyes of
a butcher in Australia, ho resolved to
personate the lost son. There was not
, one chance in a million -that he could sucJ
cced. There was no accidental re9emj
bianco of person, of manner or of character.
Mr. Nasby tried to get a drink at
! Willard's Hotel by saying he was Chas.
I Suunicr. But this attempt was no less
i ridiculous. The baronet was a little,
delicate, "scrubby" man. The claimant
was a man mountain, weighing three
hundred and sixty pounds. The baronet
spoke French more readily than English;
the claimant did not know one word of
the language. Sir Roger belonged to a
wide-spread family connectiun^of which
the claimant had never seen one member.
Vet he confidently sailed for England,
and for seven years fought the fight wtych
ended in his conviction as a Colon, with a
varying success which must always remain
u wonder to succeeding ages. Ilis
trial has changed men's opinions as to the
worth of human evidence. Dozens of
witnesses, among whom was Sir Roger's
mother, testified that this was the rightful
heir. Several members of Parliament
espoused his cause. Popular subscriptions
assisted him in his scheme. He was
defeated at last by two things?by his
own statement in regard to Mrs. Radcliffe,
which all England instinctively cried
could not have been made by a man born
u gentleman, and by the evidcnco of Lord
Bcllew, who said ho had tattooed Sir Ro
ger in his boyhood. Remove these two
comparatively unimportant incidents from
the case, and it is not impossible that the
craziest crime against rank and property
ever attempted might have succeeded, by
form of law, in the most aristocratic coun
try of earth.
"Anna, dear, if I should attempt to
apell 'cupid,' why could I not get beyond
tbe first syllable ?" Annie gave it up
and William said, "because I came to c-v,
of course, uud therefore I can not go any
furthor."
The Hampton Roads Conference.
General Hill in his speech before the
Southern Historical Society at Atlanta,
gave the following bit of history:
''The full history of the Hampton Roads
commission and conference has never been
written. I will not give that history now.
Much has been published and said upon
the subject which is cot truo. I know
why each member of that commission, on
our part, was elected. I received from
Mr.' Davis' own lips, a full account'of the
conversation, between himself and the
commissioners, before their departure from
r>:-i j
XVlUUUlUliU.
"You have heard it said that the President
embarrassed the commissioners, by
giving them positive instructions to make
the recognition of our independence an
ultimatum?a condition precedent to any
negotiations. This is not true. Mr. Davis
gave the commissioners no Written instruo,
tions, and no ultimatum. He gave them
in conversation, his views, but leaviug
much to their discretion. They could best
judge how to conduct the conference when
they met. His own opinion was, that it
would be most proper and wise, to conduct
tho conference, if possible, so as to receive
rather tham make prepositions. While he
did not feel authorized to yield our independence
in advance, and should not do
so, and while he did not desire them to
deceive Mr. Lincoln, or be responsible for
any false impressions Mr. Lincoln might
have, yet he was willing for them tp secure
an armistice, although they might be satisfiied,
that in agreeing to it Mr. Lincoln
did so under the belief that re-union as a
result must follow. I must add that Mr.
Davis had no hope of success, or of securing
an armistice, after he learned that Mr.
Seward was to accompany Mr. Lincoln ?
"xMr. Lincoln," he said, "is an honest,
well meaning man, but Seward is wily and
treachenJus."

An Important Medical Question in
Court.
In a capital case lately tried before the
Supreme Court of Massachusetts, medical
!J ! _ .fl.
uviuenca was given uu una hub, luumug
that it was impossible to distinguish with
certainty, human blood from that of a
horse, and on the other side, eridence is
given showing that the difference between
the two kinds of blood is distinctly revealed
by the microscope. The remarkable
fact here involved presents itself in the
light of the investigates made by emi*
nent men of science in Europe, and with
concurrent results, showing that though
there are, beyond question differences of
size; determinable by careful micrometric
measurement?the human corpuscles thus
appearing to be on an average larger than
those of the horse?yet, even in fresh
blood, these differences have been found
so slight as to be recognised only with extreme
difficulty. In human blood the
corpuscles are seen to vary from 3005 to
5000 to an inch, the average being 3500.
In horse blood the same variations exist,
the average being 4600?so that very
1 small human corpuscles and very large
j horse corpuscles might be placed side by
i * ' "?j 1 :?: ipl!. !

fresh blood, in dried blood the differences
are almost blotted out, so that it has been
universally agreed, that when blood has
once become dried, it is not possible to
distinguish the blood of one mammal from
that of another.
A cross-eyed m?n cast a gloom over
Detroit street car last Wednesday, by asking
one of the seven men and strangers
on the opposite seat, if he had any chewing
tobacco bandy. First the seven
strangers looked at each other, the seven
hands went pockctward, aud observing
this motiou each of the seven supposed
his neighbor the ono spoken to. and the
seven hands roturned empty. The eroaa!

A marriage in a buggy lately took place
in Yirginia, but the vehicle soon afterwards
overturned, and the bride became a little

I
The combat Between prayer and whiskey
still rages. 'The hostilities in Ohio are
ceasing by the surrender of Bine host; but
a lurid flame still extends from San Fran*
cisco to Jersey City, and through the
smoke of battle may be heard the thunder
of the captains and the shouting. One
minister in Jersey City has dkganiied his
peaceful flock into an army, with banners
to the number of three hundred strong,
one hundred and fifty of whom are recruits
enlisted at? reoent revival. Iu Philadelphia,
however, the good work doss Mi
seem to prosper. The publican continues
to rend bis "disinfectants," and tbs horn
of the ungodly is exalted rsry frequently.
Worse still, thn wicked publioan plies his
unholy trafile on Sundays, and the shy
authorities declare themselves unable to
stOD it. Even manv of ths Dolioe have
? 0 m
been dismissed for imbibing the profhne
and worldly snifter. In Baltimore ws do
not hear of any organixed'plaa of battle,
bnt we know that good generals are always
reticent. And we warn the publioans
not to rest in fancied security. The
assault may come upon tbem like a thunderbolt.?Baltimore
Gazette.
How thk Indians Do It.?The Hartford
Courant evolves the following theory:
' There has been some philogical doubt as
to the origin of the phrase 'After him with
a sharp stick.' It may have ooenrred to
many that the 'sharp stick referred to is
the much-feared 'January bill.' And it
woold seem that there is some ground for
this. The Necsbehan Indians of California
have not the brutal and dieagreeable
habit prevalent among us
of sending dunning bills. When one
Indian owes another, it is considered bed
taste, as it is, for the oreditor to dnn the
debtor. He proceeds with more delicacy.
He procures a certain number of little
sticks, acoording to the amount of the
debt, and paints a ring around the end ol

confidential friend in the neighboring
State of Virginia, is in Washington, and
has been received at the Whits House
with the President's customary cordiality.
At one of these lata interviews, the polit
ical future of Virginia was talked of fully,
and the conclusion arrived at was thai
Mosby ought to go to ooogress. In accord,
ance with this agreement, Col. Mosbj will
within a week or two, address a circular
to hii fellowcitiMDi of Warrentoa Uistnet
announcing himself as a candidate foi
congress, and he will hare the aetiv#tup<
port of the President in his canvass.
Senor Aldama, agent of the Cohen Republic,
says the patriot foroes more than
hold tboir own. They namber abotti
twelve thousand armed men, and oould
put three times that number in the field
if they had arms and ammunition. Thi
native Cubans are all on their side. Near
ly half the area of the island is in their
possession. The Spanish troops in the
field number 25,000 regulars, and 25,00C
volunteers. They are asking for reinforce
menta, but are not likely to get them from
Spain.
Bitratal and Mdrdkr or Ckspidrs.?The
report of the killing of ez<
President Cespedes by some of the San
Quentine battalion, is confirmed. It appears
that on the 27th ultimo, some of the
troops captured a negro, and were ordered
by their commander to shoot him. Th?
negro promised that if his life was spared

Cespedes coold be found. This was assented
to and the ex-President was discovered
with a few friends, ire leagues from
Aserradoa. His oompanions suocceded ia
getting away but he oouid not escape, and
while closely pursued by a detachment of
troops led by a serge ant, he turned and
fired six shots from a revolver. This was
returned by the troops, and Cespedes received
bullets in the head and breast,
causing iostant death. His body was
brought to Santiago de Cuba aad buried
on the 1st inst.
