Beef for Hebrew Consumers. There Is a Rtf-nt deal of meat killed hero for tlio consumption of tho Jewish popu lation, and tho method of killing is very ilffercnt fitmi thai adopted by tho Gen tiles. Tho cat 'Jo nro taken from tbo -italls. tiod by tho hlntl Iocs, ropes aro fastened around their heads, and the! ooscs thrown up bo that their throats aro iBXposed, and then their throats nro cut This operation Is nlways performed by an Jofficer of thy Jewish church, who alono Uiandlcs tho meat and prepares it for the market Uo must bo a skillful man, not tto say a courageous ono. for it is no small matter to hauulo tbeso big cattle and cut tneir lliroats. I Ins throat cuttintr Is to vol ting night, and tho animal expires in jrreat agony, falling In a pool or bloou. "Tho instrument used is a. loner knife with tho very keenest possible edrro. lis drawn onco across an animal's throat -.sinking deep into tho neck, which It some times nearly severs from tho body. Tho Jdlllnt? must bo dono at ono stroke Tw would bo regarded as n mutilation, and mutilated beasts will not bo eaten by tho -Jaws. After tho killing, tho knlfo Is cleaned until it Is absolutely spotless, and It Is then wrapped in eovcral layers of cloth and put away where no Gentile hands may touch It. All this killing and dress lng is dono according to tho laws of the Jowlsh church established and adhered to Xrom tlmo Immemorial. Tho person who iperforms tho olllco Is vested with tho au thority of tho Jowlsh church, and it Is for Jinn to sco that tho beast, In every part internal and external, Is In perfect conui tion, elso tho carcass must bo rejected lho meat, whou cleaned and dressed, 1 Jhung up In tho ordinary way. but each separate and distinct plcco must liavo tho seal or luo synoconuo allixcd to It. Tins ceremonial Is tiorformnd liv tho filauch tercr lighting a stick of scaling wax with a candlo, and then Impressing It with his -seal, which Is thou tied through a slit in "tho meat mado by another knife. Thus every Identical parcel of flesh Intended for Jewish consumption is dressed anusealou jind it may bo interesting to noto hero xuat mo Jews only uso tlio rorcquarter, Tojcctiug tlio iiiuuquarter altogether Iloston Herald. Tlio Accumulation of Mnnuscrlptf. Now, It will hardly bo said that thcro aro not mom than two hundred and fifty pcoplo in this ountry wiio cam their liv ing by their pens. I do not know tho ex- Act figures; nobody does; but 1 should not he surprised to learu that thero wero at least twenty times as many. And wliat becomes of all tho work that these pcoplo produce? A great deal Is taken up by tho -cheap and obscuro magazines, by tho weekly story papers, and bv tho daily papors wiiicli are readied by tlio compara tivelv now "svndlcato" svatcni. But all these aro not enough; and yet these are all tliero aro. J Hero still romam tuou wands of writers who havo no vchlclo for their productions, oven when these aro such as tho odltors of the magazines and papers would llko to print. Every editor will tell you (and tell you 'truly, in spite of tho skepticism of many or tlio reiectoii) tnat wliat is oiiercd would to gladly accepted, wero not tho number of accepted aud paid for contributions already In excess of what tho magazlno can over nopo to nso. tlio century ami Jlaipcr's, for example havo In tholr draw--era MSS. enough to fill at least two years' issues many of these MSS. havo been kont mvo years: somo louder yet; occasionally tlioy will return a paid for contribution to tho author of It, with permission to well It again. It might oven occur that a magazine would accept a lirst rate article, cacarcely expecting to bo ablo to uso It, but 3n order to provent a rival from publish ing it. I cannot assert that this has been louo; but It is by no means Impossible What is truo of the great magazines is truo in proportion of tho lesser ones. Tho supply exceeds tho demand; and If no author wero to wrlto a lino from now until 1801, the periodicals would still havo oarojy exhausted tiii'irovorniiundant Bur plus.

This stern conquctvr's spirit was once, however, overcast v. ith deep melancholy, A woman's lovo vantiulahed him. a pas sion that exercised a great luflucnco over Juki future history r.'.d life. This was in perfect harmony with tho icsthotlcnl lawn or contrast aud with tho more human laws of contradiction. A lady of honor attached to tho court of his mother, tho lovely Eliza Uudzlwlll, enamored him to uch au extent that ho finally resolved to marry below his rank. This project caused great 6candal. Tlio old courtiers and the old roynllstu considered it un act of rebellion aud un outrage against tho ancient privileges of monarchical govern, mont. But somo there wero who found in tho quurterlugs of this lady ancient titles of nobility and In her genealogy ipuro blue blood, of tho genuineness of whoso bluencsa abundant proof existed. This marriage, nevertheless, would havo Tbceu undoubtedly a "mesalliance," aud 1'rlnco William would havo lost all right to tho throuo of his fathers. William's youuger brother, Charles, declared that lie would claim for his own sous the right to succeed to tho throne Instead of tho ons of his elder brother This bold threat decided William to relinquish all idea of wedding tho woman ho loved, In ordor to chooso ono of his own rank.

Tew portions of tho habitablo earth havo received moro attention during tho past threo centuries than the littlo island of St. Kilda. which lies off tho coast of Scotland No poirpio aro so strongly at t ached to their homo as tho inhabitants of this lonely place. Benovnlcnt persons In tii-eat Hritain havo repeatedly oilereu to move them all to Austml!a or Lanaua, and to provide for their wants till they could get established. I hoy have, how. over, always declined these propositions. Tho climatoof tho Island Is so severe that ttls scarcely endurable, tho sea about It Is so tempestuous at most times that vessels cannot approach It, while tho soil Is so sterilo that It will prouueo iituo out rrrass. potatooa and barley Tbo people suiTcr from cold, hunger and Isolation. It Is also allirmed that they suffer from tin) visits of strangers, oven those who como on errands of mercy. All writers on St. Hilda affirm that tho arrival of a vessel Is Immediately followed by a peculiar sort of liilliieiiza which ar forts all tho people Rev. Aulay Mac aitlay, great grandfather of tho distin guished historian, wroto a work on St. Kilda, in which ho speaks at length of this strange disease. Martin, who wroto au account of tho Island and Its inhabi tants nearly two hundred years ago, also refers to ft. In giving evidence before tho crofter commission, tho minister of tho island, who Is represented as a gen tleman of great learning, enumerated tho "Strancers' Cold" as among tho principal ullllctlons of tho people, and ono for which there was no relief Dr. Samuel Johnson, who was much In- tflPoDtn.! In tlm ill. . l.l.iti. tu .if iitt I. mil nt.fl tho uelirhhorinir islands, endeavored to dispone of tho "Strangers' Cold" by means of an argument. In an essay ho wroto now can there bo a physical oliect witn out a physical cause? Tho arrival of a shipful of strangers would kill them, for it ono straiurer trives them ono com, uvo strangors must give them two colds, and so on in proportion. llio lojric was ex cellent, hut it did not prevent tho poor pcoplo of bt. ivilda Iroin suilering lrom a bovoro cold for eight or ten days after tho arrival of everv vessel. A writer in a recent number of Chambers' Journal de clared that tho dlbeaso actually exists, and that It Is folly to attempt to deny tho fact, lie states that tliero Is a mass ot evidence to establish tho occurrenco of such a disease alter tho arrival of every vessel that cannot bo disposed of, es pecially when thero Is no contradictory testimony.

In regard to a small island on tho west coast of Africa, that "it is a singular fact that any vessel touching there from St. Helena Invariably brings with It a diseaso resembling Inllu- enza." The same story is told about an Island that lies east of New Zealand. Hero all the people begin to cough almost as soon as a vessel mmis.

Tho publication of theso statements, supported by many authorities, In n lead ing magazine lias called out many expres sions of opinion. All admit that It was Impossible for tho inhabitants of an Island near tho South Polo to obtain Information from thoso living on St. Kilda. Somo believe that tho natives of several islands havo killed tho crows of vessels becauso they contracted lho Influenza from stran gers who had previously landed, row havo attempted to solve the mystory. It has la.cly been tho fashion to deny any phenomena that could not bo explained by natural causes.
