ham hmm urdcml into virtual exile. '■ VkMCitlag the Jews.The American Htkrrtr, a Jewish paperpublished in New York, says :—' 41 Not long ago the citie* of Roetow andTaganrog were annexed to a military die-trict in whkh Jeea were forbidden to dwell. As usual, a Senatorial Coinmiasion wm ap pointed to oonaider the contingency, and th 11 body ban rendered its decision tof the effect that the Jews should not or could not be permitted to remain in the newly created district, with the exception of merchant* of the first guild and those who have secured real estate. Thi* will enable some 4,000 wealthy Jew* to remain in poseeswioa oftheir bomas, whilt about I§,(lb0 nwr, help leas Jews will have to go forth upon the olden well-worn roei of exile.There may, however, yet remain a hope that that direful act may \m averted if the mice of civ dated humanity may be heard in .«pwl*ilnE- the dastardly act. In the long and terrible annals of political persecu itHWfnd racial oppressions, there is Dot another Instance m m cvdd blooded and wilfully atrocious an outrage a* this. There is not any pretence uf an accusation again*!these 10,000 outcast* ; not any intimation ofa popular desire for their expulsion ; not mlilsiks of an uprising among the against the Jrw ; not a whisper of chargee or conipiMxit* against them ; simply and solely for the topographical reason that the two id ties are to I* classed into a oar tain military 4h§rfet, where Jews are for bidden, and those 16,000 are fco.be driven forth to seek homes whithersoever theyMat. i %W# appeal, therefore, to the journalist* of America to ntter a brave ward in twhalf of these lfl.OUO who are threatened with expn trietfaa . We sppeal, therefore, to theministers of America, who preach with word and act ttic g*«pcl of peace and tirotherlv love and uiveraal charity, to lift op their voice* in elcsiuent and nersuaaive protestagainst this threatened desecration of all that religion teaches. lYees, pulpit, andany eerabbleptatfunn should speak the heart of America m reprobation of this heart less, godlessdeed.
