The Huron Expositor, 1872-07-19, Page 6.,THE '1ITTRODM. POSIT.0-11. • Prospect of Bad CroPs m' Europe From Austfo-Hungary comes in- telligence which renders it probable that a great demand will be•macle upon the wheat crop of America for this year. In. various -parts of the monarchy, the prospect of the crops has been completely destroyed. -Hungary liaS been termed the gran- ary of the world; the black fertile' soil of the Banat is so well ada,pted to raising wheat that frequently, from. 30 to 40 bushels of choice wheat have been raised to the acre. Now this region is completely inun- dated with water. Over a wide ex- ,. tent of territory_mothing can be dis- covered but fish ponds and .raarsheS ; the eye of the railroad traveler meets - with water on all sides. More than 4,000,000 of acres are now under water. _ Somewhat similar has been theex- perience of Bohemia. Toward ,the end of )118:37•there were heavy falls of rain accompanied with water- spouts, so that the rivers Etbe, Mol- dau- Eger and Beraun overflowed their banks and inundated the coun- try with such .fearfui rapidity that in most of the flooded districts the waters rose fourarid five feet in a minute. Great _disaster 'Vas the re- sult, more than 200 peisons were drowned, and an immense number of houses have been destroyed; in some places whole •villages are in • ruins while, to use the language of official report -- "Millions' worth of property have been destroyed, whole tracts of cultivat- ed. land have been converted into a des- „ ert and covered with sa.nd and mud to a depth of from two to threefeet, in ad- dition td the property destroyed. in crops, houses, roads, -bridges and stored goods. it will not be possible to cultivate any of that land this year, portions of it not _even in the next ; and many acres will be utterly lost for agricultural purposes, the expense of restoration being•too great to be borne by the poor people.” , A direct consequence of this fail- ure of the marketiwhich have sup- plied a great portion of Europe with grain -would appear, to be the neces- * Bier of drawing large supplies from other countries. With a favorable crop in America, considerable ex- portation of grain may be required to supply the deficiency.----ttlrew York Tribune; f • The Turf Disgraced. Hamilton Racing Park has sunk- ' en into the pithole of disgraceful corruption. Disreputable 'pool -sell- ers gain the control; and, like all gamblers, they hung out a big bait. • Like "ropers in for skin game gambling dens, they published "$8,- 000. in purses," set up the races.to sell their customers) and have made the meeting the most flagrant dis- grace that ever settled over a Cana- dian racing course. What could be expected of men who have been identified with running away from a race meeting with pool boxes and their contents ? The meeting. was a foregone disgrace from the day Quimby, Forbes and Co. pushed their • names before the public. While the standard of races is being elevated in the -United States, it appears that a set of comptemptible gamblers and welchers, less honorable even than a thieving gambler, have hold over our Canadian race tracks. You can see corruptiou and dishonesty' in the very - face's of the horsejoekeys and gamblers of the Canadian turf, and not until its leaders are changect for an occasional honest maw will there-, be any reform. Brantford Daily Hews. Peculiarities of the Jew. • The Jews are a peculiar people, and there are some peculiarities that in our opiniou might be safely imi- tated by Christians. Who ever saw • a Jew begging bread, or found one in an alms -house ? How rarely do Jews intermarry with outsiders. How proud"' are Jewish women to have children. How 1111 frequent are divorces s What a very •uriusual' thing it is to see a Jewish prostitute. Who knows of a Jew firrraer, Cr a Jew farm laborer 2 Who ever heard of an Israelite livina in. the co-untur 2 j6ws deal in clothes, but are rarely manufacturing tailors, they sell jewelry, but do not inake it; they are merchants, but seldom own ships; they are scattered throughout the world, but are sel- dom pioneers, and never explorers, they deal in Coln, but are never miners, they are industrious, but are seldon found at a vocation re_ Turing hard labor. Look through the foundries, machine shops-rjo Jews ; no Jew sailors, 'soldiers or day 'laborefs at hard work. AS bankers they rank first in the world; as artists, in music, paint- ing, Sculpture, and all the imitative arts, they are superior.. Poor in real esta te, they are rich in personal property ; a. diamond is to the - Hebrew the embodi- ment of *real -wealth. With- out nationality, their ties of race are stronger than those of any other people-. Speaking nearly all the languages of the world, they have nearly lost their own scattered throughout the world, jerusalem-is a ruin and a desolation. Intermar- rying only with each other their race hacv not degenerated. Half the Jewish ris in America, are broth. ers; bus ess continues in a family and des ends from generaticn to generation, careful and prudent as are the Jews, they are great specu- lators and gamblers. In the family, the father is king and the mother is queen; the government is patra- . archal ; a bad, ungrateful son is al- most unknown ; It disobedient err-, ing daughter, is rarely heard of. The religious duties are performed • With zeal; no food or drink passes the Jewish lips on the day of atone- ment. Yet, they never proselytize ; never get excited; never parade their piety. Their synagogues are out of debt; their preachers never go into politics nor attend civic, banquets. A Jew is never asham- ed of his religion, and never denies his faith; an apostate Jew is as rare as a white, blackbird. While they keep their 'Own Saturday they re- spect everybody's Sunday.

Governor Vance of North Caro- , line, in a recent speech humorously described the position of the Demo- crats in reference to Mr. Greeley, as their candidate for the Presidency. He hoped there would be unanimity at Baltimore, and was sure Noieth Carolina would give Greeley and Brown a large majority, if endorsed there by the Democrats, and illus- trated his position by a ' humorous story of an old.preacher into whose hymn -book some bad boy had pasted the old song : Old Grimes is dead; That good old man, We ne'er shall see him more. On opening his book one day be- fore a sermon his eyes fell on this hymn. He read the first verse and stopped with surprise. He wiped his specs and read it again, and said, "Brethren, I have been singing out of this book ,for 40 'ears, I have never recognized this as a` hymn be- fore, but it's here, and I ain't agveine to go back on my book now, So please 'raise the tune, and we'll sing it through if it kills us." "Now," said the Governor, "we have been singing Democratic hyinns for 40 years down here, and we have never recognized Greeleyas a Demoerat before, but if the Baltimore Conxten- tion puts hun in our hymn-bOok We'll sing hiin through if it kills us." This was received with prolonged applause. idolatry in New York. Your readers know that the 'Heathen. Clainee,' 'Ah Sin,' who plisyed that 'little game with Bill Nye,' possesses m this country the pr vileges and benefits of his religi- o4 worship, and has his native tem- pi and Jess house to go to and his id1s to bow down before but per has it is not known to any of them that in New York city there is a heathen temple da stranger idol- atiy than that of the Chinese. This teriaple is dedicated to,the Egyptian worship of crocodiles, cats, dogs and other deities of the land of the pyra- mids and sphyni. The gods -wor- shiped•under these animal and rep- tile forms are Osiris, Isis, floras Typhon, Seraphis, Anabis and pocrates, and On account of the en- tire exclusion of unbelievers from a presence at these heathen ceremon- ies, your readers must draw upon their imagination and knowledge of Egyptian antiquities for their_ ideas of how the worship is conducted. > - Perhaps they have a sacred font fill- ed With crocodile tears for baptism- al piirposes, as those tears are sup- pose to be, quite common now a, days,and many persons in the hol- low, fashionable world receive the bapt sm of the marble, heart in them.
