About the time of the commencement of the Revolutionary war a cannon wa- discovered on a hill, I think some where on the Island of lamaica, with an inscrip tion commencing thus—"RE VDEB, ere thou pass, contemplate this cannon, nor regardless be told that near its base was deposited the ashes of JOHN BRADSHAW, who, nobly superior to all selfish considerations, despising alike the pagean try of court- and the flatteiy of Princes, presided in that little band of Heroes, who fairly aud opca ly adjudged harles Stuart, Tyrant of England, to a just and exemplary death,” Ac. In the His tory of the Iudiau wars iu New England, from 1607 to 1677, by Rev. William Hubbard, about the year 1676, the author says: "And this year, died the Honorable JOSlAli WINSLOW, Gov ernor of Plymouth,” and, after praising the de rt-a-ed fioveruor, adds: “aud although it may seem foreign to our narrative, I would uot pass b> his totub without bestoaiug this honor upoo it.' And this relation of the massane of the Jews in Kableh, Poland, calls for our attention. What kind of Chri-tians they were that “massacred the Jews, burned ttieir synagogues aud destroyed the scrolls of the l»w, we are not intormad. The anniversary of the Boston massacre, of 1770, was observed for a hundred years or more, and is not y et forgotten; aud this inhuman ma-sacreof the Jews, may be remembered for a touch longer pe riod. The sufferings o! the Jews commenced ages ago. Their miseries during the siege of Jerusa lem by the Komans, under Y'espasiau aad Titus, were foretold by Moses. In the triumphal pro cessinn, afier the taking of the city, the last arti cle ot value borne in the piocessiou was me scroll ot the law, which the Emperor Vespasian kept in the Palace, while the golden candlestick and other articles were placed iu the Temple of Peace. So great regard did he manifest to their scroll of the law, while these enlightened “Christians in Kab leh” destroyed their scrolls. It is but, compara tively, a few years siuoe, that the civilized world wai called upon to aid distressed Poland, and the call w as geneiously responded to. I remember to have seeu a tubaci iption paper with the words, written by a foieigner, “friend of Poles,” and the amount subscribed appended but as for a sub scription, “friend of Jews,” 1 have no recollection of seeing any. It was ouce said by the Piestdent, Andrew Jackson, “It is time that this unequal state of things shouldctase.” In Kobert Fabian's t hiooicle, written in the reign of Hemy Y IP, iu his account of the coiouatiou of Kichard I., he says, “the Jews that dwelt near and about Lon don, pie»umed further than was required lor their HUtboiitv/’ aud thereupon a temble massacie followed and although the King sent, command iug them “to cease ef that not,” no regard was paid to bis command, uui were they ever called to “hearken to *u indictment found against them;” hut the record remaius m Faoiau't, Chronicle. Iu the time of the Commonwealth of England, a motion was made in the House of Common's for the temoval of the DLabilit ts of the Jews and to grant them the privileges of Englishmen. It was advocated by sevetal members, among whom was Major (iereial Ed waul VV bailey, one of the Judges of Chailes 1 Iu his speech in their be half, a-* a reason why they should be admitted, he said, “they prayed for us.” The motion, how ever, wan uegatived, and the disadvantages which atleuded them were nut removed. That any Christians on tne face of the fc.*rtn, at tlie pieseul tune, could he found engaged in such awful cruelly as related lu Poland, aeeuas beyond belief. The" massacre of the Christiana, within the past lew years, by the Turks, one would think equally incredible. The Turks have “barkeued to the'indictment found against them,'* given se curity for the hue imposed and coats, and are bound tor their good behavior, and lo keep the peace. Hut who considers the case aud complaint o! the Jews? In the year 17,->, while Boston, Mass was in possession of the British, the pulpit and pews were removed from the Old South Church, earth was placed ou the Moor and the building was used for a tiding school for Oen. liurguynet cavalry. A tew yrars since, a block of granite, bearing an in scription "Desecrated by the British, 1775,” was placed permanently in that tide of the tower far fug Washington Street, to be read by all persons pasting by the renowned and famous Old booth Church.

Hobson of Wiscas set, and Horace Ingraham of \u justa, d *claring at the same time th it thev coul 1 not s *e the con sistency of supporting a Imiker for their candi date, and openly said that if such a person was nominated they would n it supp >rt him As so >u as the convention si* organized the music began by Mi. Ingraham taking the platform and telling them if they w« iv honest giecnbaekers what they should do. I' was at once plainly evident that his remarks were not palata^l** to those that had ar tanged thing**, and they were in earnest consulta tion. while great drops of sweat coul 1 be seen rolling down their faces. It was a critical mo ment. It is said th at th**re are times when the “voice of (iod to mortal ears sounds dreadful," so it was to those that had airanged everything foi the convention, and on their ears the honest, so ber words of Horace Ingraham fell like haish thunder. What was to be done, none hardly i knew hut the chairman after consultation with the committee of arrangements, brought hi** won derful pailiamentary ability up to the occasion, and informed Mr. Ingraham that this was a con vention for business and not lor speeches, not withstanding they had arranged to have a speech from Miller. Mr. Philbii-k’s name was presented as a candi- •late, aud a motion made to nominate him by arrlamati >n. Mr. Ingraham wanted the merits, of the diff erent candidate* discussed, an I again j the chairman was equal to the occasion and ruled that it was out of order to do so Then consid erable sparring ensucJ bet ween Ingrahonand the chairman, Iagruham accusing him of trying to i enforce gag law and the like. Finally the vote1 was taken on the motion to nominate Philbrick by 1 acclamation, hut some 8 or 10 voted against the motion. It was generally supposed that a nomin ation by acclamation must he unanimous; what was to be done Again the presiding office rose with the occasion, and declared Philbrick the nominee, who cam forward an I mad- his little speech. Then Ingraham wanted a chance to speak, and the leaders saw the only way out of the difficulty was to adjourn the convention and let the ex i pected speech of Miller waste itself on the desert air. A shade of sadness settled upon the counte nances of the member* of the convention as they left the hall. Ingraham requested those opposed j to gag-law and bauker* being n innnated for can didates to Congress, to remain and take forward seats, aud quite a number did so, and he ad dressed them anil said that he should fight against the nominee of the convention with all his ability and urged them to do the same. One of the lea ling Greenbackers of the convention was asked who this Ingraham was. and he replied that he was a “damned lunatic broke loose from the In sane Asylum," which was thought to be pretty harsh language to use about a person who was preaching Greet hack ism while all the leaders of to-day were with the old parties anxiously waiting for some office to fall to them. IvQOKBR ON. For the Kennebec Journal. (irecnlMck Ways ami Leader*. "For wavs that ate dark and tricks that are vain," democracy is peculiar. In a town in Lin coln countv, not long since, au ancient old apostle of democracy, might have been seen with horse and buggy, travelling through the rural districts, for what "Ye gods!" as I live, canvassing for the Advocate, the twenty-tire cent New Y’ork Greenback paper! We have taken pains to inquire upon whom he called, and every one was a repub lican; not a single democrat was approached. The rnoJut o/ierarnli was: The canvasser would say, "I am canvassiug fir a greenback paper, only twenty-five cents per annum, the cheapest paper iu the world; better take it, co.-ts hut little, Ac.” The party approached would inquire, "What, are you in this new party movement al ways thought nothing short of death would take democracy out of yon.” C'anvassei—"Well, it is funny, I have been a democrat nearly forty years; but, I am really thinking about this new partv. I tell you we must have a change; at anv rate, take the paper It can’t do any harm. The tanner takes the paper, ami otf drives the old in triguer, to chuckle over having sown the seeds of discoid among the republican voters. We are informed that this method is beiug pursued quite generally throughout the .State, and republicans need to be on guard against the wily seductions of their political opponents. In past times when you saw a democrat advocating anv measure, you were quite safe in shunning the proposition. Would not this be a good criterion for the present i Notices are posted in several of the towns of this vicinity, to choose delegates to attend the Greenback Congressional Convention at (iirdincr, to-raorrow, (Thursday 2.5th inst.) They hold their county convention here, August 7th. Mr. Hobson seems to be leading the move ment; but we do not believe there will beany uprising, or great stampeding fiom the oltl par ties to the new, especially when it is discovered that the leaders of the new party are ell chafed and the hair worn off by their prominence in the old partiea. The question at once arises, "are they doing ail this in the interest of the dear peo ple, for the pool man, or for their own personal interests Our impression is, that the masses of the people ranoot be worked up to any very great excitement, for the benefit of these ambitious men, who are misconstruing the fact*, making wild statements, and appealing to prejudices, simply to help them selves into position. For iustance we heard one of these Greenback advocates a few days since arguiug, that if their theory was adopted, and more money issued, the wheat at the West would bring higher prices, when in a few minutes later he said if their theoiy prevaded, the work ing man iu the East would purchase his dour very much cheapei if they can reconcile this, they cau do mote than I. Let the people investigate for themselves. H. Datnaiiscot'a, Julv 24, 1H7H. For the Journal. A Curious Mixture. We have hcaid not a little of late, in regard to the mixing lip of Free Masonry with tnoenback isrn, a* is doDe through the column* of the Advo cate. the New Voik Giecnback sheet. Being a membei of the masonic fraternity, and recollect ing that one of the fundamental piinciples of that order, is absolute and unqual.tied abstaining from all political and sectarian complications, I fad entirely to see the propriety of a paper using the fiatemity to advance its peculiar political uo tioM. We are informed that canvassers were »p pointed in the first place, to solicit patronage from ma«on», not telling them the political status of I the paper. We know of many masons who are indignant about the deception, and we trust im mediate steps will betaken to set the craft right 1 iu the premises. Masons may be (ireeuhackeis, as well as Republicans or Democrats; but no true mason will ever for one moment countenance any attempt to in the least degree all? the order with any political faith; hence the injustice of a pa per partly devoted to masonry, and partly to the interests ot a political parts. Let masons he on their guar I, and see that demagogues do their ord# r no hat m. X July 24, l*;s. Political.

P. li. 1‘iidenf Windham, C. L. Parker os Portland and II R. Millett of Gorham The chairman of the Committee on Resolution® l ead the following Resolved, That the fiiends of temperance in Maine have r inse for profound gratitude to God for the wonderful success which has hitherto ciowned their labors. In 1851, the year of the enactment of the Maine Law, liquoisof all sorts weie sold freely ami openly e\cry* here in the Statz*. wholesale and retail, to the annual amount of #10,000,000. But now, in 1878, there is not au open bar. as we believe, in Maine. Liquors arc sold secretly and with caution to a small extent, and a large pait of the clandestine sale continues partly by the complicity "f the otflceis of the law, •*w*pel, and the public press. They constitute different but harmonious divisions of the viand aimy, fighting under one flag to the same end, against the common enemy. Resolved,—That in any future act additional to the Maine Law provision should be made not ou* Iv for increased penalties of tine and imprisonment against violators of the law, but also, as of the ut most importar.ee, some provision for punishing any officers of the law, of whatever rank or title, who shill he false to their duty. Resolved, That the temperance people of Maine, having put their hands to the plough, will not look back, nor pause io their work, until the tratlic io iutoxicating drinks is utterly diiven from the State, and to this end they will use all the power l *>1 law, intensifying its penalties until the result shall have hern accomplished. Geu. Neal Dow was introduced as the first j speaker on the resolutions. He recalled the old I time when the politicians were opposed to the tem perance people. Rut now the Mairc Law is a great success. He said that a good man recently wrote a communication for the Christian Mirror condemning those who were not satisfied with the liquor law as ft is. The van it no doubt a good if.an but he ii a Coward and has no business to hinder the men who are in earnest ami mean bust ness. We have got to meet this rum fiend and de feat him. We once met one of his di-cipla- in Matket Square and shot him and wounded several of bia friends. W« will do it again if nectssaty. The rumseller is the murderer general, the poison er general and one of the chief aids of the gigantic crime of crimes. He related the cate of a woman arrested for rum selling who would not atop sell ing links- she whs filing and intimated that it would come to tt at bc»e if the traffi was not ►topped, lie -aid that th» re was more law needed and to that cud be ha 1 drawn up a petition to be presented to the nest l» gi»lature. He read the document and asked the audience to endorse it which the? did. Among die prominent sneakers at the meetings were ex Gov. I’eiham, It**v. A. t$. I.add, Judge Kingsbury and Rev. O. M Cousens. Witter In the I era. Take this along with you to the seashore. It may i>c of advantage to you. If you don’t wish to run the risk of becoming deaf nays an ex change, take a handful of cotton along with your thin clothe-, and when you go in bathing, put plugs of cotton in your ears, this may save you from earache and perhap&ssage§. l’eople who are blessed with very small openings to their cars run the least lisk in bathing. A man should never dive, says the doctor, if he wishes to pre serve his hearing. When in the surf, he should take the wave on his chest and hack, “closing his mouth and nostrils;” though how a man can close his nostrils the doctor does aot state.

United States Commis sioner Rand of Portland and District Attorney Lunt arrived hero to-dav. A large number of p rsons were brought before the commissioner this afternoon, on complaints regularly made, chaining them with having sold manufactured tobacco w.thout Laviug paid the 1 S. internal revenue tax. The sales being proved, the paities were order ed to recognize for their appearance before the Cuited States District court, or were given the alternative to settle by the payment of the tax and costs. The tax is but five dollars, but the amount required to settle was fixed at |jl94 in several cases. Some of the paities recognized for their appear auce at the court, and the heating was adjourned till to-motrow morumg. Sales in all these cans wcie on the day of Bar Dtim’s circus, and the persons compluiued against in nearly every instance were only engaged iu peddling fiom booths or otherwise for the day and were unaware that they weie violating any law. The penalty imposed is looked upon as a great hardship, and the impression is getting abroad that the two young men who testified to to the sales aic informers tiavelling with the cir cus on purpose to entrap such uuwaty aud un conscious violators of the law, for their own profit, and great indignation was manifested against them. Early in the evening a crowd of several hun dred gathered around the hotel aud filled the office, and finally began hooting one of tbe-e ob noxious persous, aud would have iLtficted per sonal violente upon him had not the police pio tected him and got him off to his loom. The crowd remained in the viciolty of the hotel until a late hour in the evening, freely expressing their indignation against these obnoxious wit nesses. Commissioner Rand says the witnesses are act ing under the direction of iuttrual revenue otti ceis. but the popular fueling here is that, undei the circumstances, gteat injustice has been done by the means taken to enforce the law.

The first hou-e for public worship built in Salem in 10*2y, when the Worshipful Jobu Kndicott, 11»«? first Governor of Massachusetts, was in office, is now carelullv protected and preserved in Salem, wheia Governor Kndicott and his Council resided. But wbeie is the Tabernacle, erected in the Wild erness, when Moses was in office Where is the Temple of Solomon They have puaaed away; but "Moses is icad in the Synagogue every Sab bath day," and there is a tradition, that when the Temple was finished, King Solomon said—"liow beautiful is this house which 1 have budded of «edars, hot when the King Christ shall come he will build a more gloiious hou-e of the tiers of paiadise." Theie has been, from the time wbereoi the memotv ol man ruuneth not to the contrary," a prejudice iu the minds ot very many persons agaiust the Jews. Fabiau, iu his account of the maasarre, before mentioned, says of the rioters that they “hated" the Jews for their usury, JLc., and they suppos'd they were lavored or toleiated in their work of destruction. And the hatred or prejudice against the Jews has been Domisbcd and kept alive when it ought to have been dis couraged and allowed to die out. Nearly three bond red years ago toere lived one William Sbakspeare, who is the reputed author of a play entitled "The Merchant of Venice," in which a Jew, called Shylock, is compelled to figure, and is made to appear in the light and exact representation of a man, if such an one might be called a man, of not one spai k of human ity, or but little more than the rioters just uien tioned, and hated on account of his usury. It mav well be doubt- d whe’her any such Jew, from the time of Abraham down to the present clay was ever to be found or ever will be. If so, then the trial of his case before two or three women, self constituted Judge*, w.th all other of ficers and process belonging or appertaining to a Court of Justice, mav supposed to have have hap pened. together wiih the judgment of such a court and submission to that judgment by an in telligent man in an ancient and enlightened city, wbeie the art of piintmg had a settled home long before the great .Shakespeare saw the light of day. Can any man, poscssed of comrnou it*use, be 2 icve for a moment that a man of property aud capable of taking care ol himself, would uot have touud menu* by his attorney or otherwise to ex amine the records of the couits of Venice and dis cover ti e fraud that had been practiced; aud then a third Daniel might have “come to judgment." hut £shake*peaie “is um houoiahle man;" and the Couit seems to have beeu composed ot Qua kers, for “1 thank tKte Jew for teaching me mat word,* is a pait of the play. Bit the whole story, fiction or play, fiom beg inning to end, so far as the supposed Jew is represented, appears to tie au injuiious aud base tlandet against a nation of such a noble ancestry as no other natiou of the haith could or can boast; and to whom ail the other nations are under the giea'cst obligation; aud whose nook of the law is the only sure foundation of every civilized government; a nation that is to remain although au end is made of all the nations among which thev are scattered.
