LETTERS TO THE EDITOE,

Christianity Among the Jews.

| Sim,—The seventy-seventh Annual Re- | port of the ‘‘London Society for promoting Christianity amongst the Jews’? has just come to hand. Its perusal reveals many encouraging features which have markd ‘the work of the mission during the year. There has been less opposit'on than former-

a dati 3 sanctions as all other missionary agencies, * and if there be a preference at all it would Somethi | omething Extra !

| seem to be for it,for while there ia *‘indig- | nation and wrath, tribulation and anguish i npon every soul of man that dveth evil, of the Gospel is declared to be the ‘‘power of God unto silvation to every ons that be-

Quarter-Pound lieverh to the Jew first, and also to the

Greek.”

Perhaps the Christian Church too much forgets that its stock is Jewish, and that once the branches were all Jewish—that some of the branches were broken off, and those of the wild olive grafted in amongst them. How often, when help is asked for this mission, ins'eac of meeting with a cheerful end liberal response, the idea of the conversion of the Jew is ridiculed. What is St. Paul’s assurance to the Church: ‘* God is able to graft them in again ; for if thou wast cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and wast grafted contrary to nature into a good clive tree, how much more shall these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree.”’ Few of the natural branches are as yet engrafted, but the continued existence of the Jews as a distinct nation, in spite of unparalleled persecution and ill-treatment— never lost, never merged, never trodden out—is a pledge that the day is coming when they shall be grafted into their own vine.

‘* Lost branches of the still loved vine,

Now withered, spent audwere ; See Israal’s sons like glowing brands Tossed wildly o’er a thousand lands

For twice a thousand year.”

Tossed wildly o’er a thousend lands, for twice a thousand years, yet still ‘beloved for the Father’s sake.” Never forgotten, never forsaken, that God’s promise of grace may be made good to them. ‘‘ There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer. He shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob and so al! Israel shall be saved.”

~

“ Poor nation whose sweet sap and jaice Our fathers have purloined, and left you dry; Oh, that my prayers, mine alas ! Oh, that some ange! might a trumpet sound, At which the Church, falling upon her face, Should cry so loud, until the trump were drowned, And by that ery of her dear Lord obtain, That your sweet sap might come again.” And such a ery and prayer shall go up from Christian hearts, and the sweet sap and jaice come into the withered branches once again. And “ If the casting away of them is the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be but life from ile dead?’ Maintaining his pre- eminence in art, in science, in letters, the Jew is yet to come to the fore front as a missionary of the cross, and with his commanding intellect, tenacity of purpose, and force of will consecrated to the service of God and used for the missionary work of the Church, what grand results may we not anticipate! Already nearly 200 ordained clergymen of the Church of England are converted Jews. There are 50,000 converts from Judaism to Christian- ity—and it is estimated that 1,509 every year leave the Jewish synagogue for the Christian Church.

Although the P. FE. Island branch of the Society has become almost extinct, there are a few amongst us who think upon Jerusalem, and while they pray for her, contribute also their mite to lead her chil- dren to the Messiah. The Secretary had the pleasure of remitting nearly $30 during the year, besides which the Good Friday collection in St. Paul's was forwarded by the Rev. Dr. Fitzgerald.

Some of our people have also been assist- ing the Rev. Jacob Freshman, (himself the son of a converted Jewish Rabbi) in his in teresting mission to the Jews in New York

The annual meetings of the Society in the olden times used to be amongst the most popular anniversaries beld in Char- lottetown. Could not something be done to revive the old interest, and at least one evening this winter be devoted to the

Jews. F, W. Moore.

The Teacher’s Convention.

Sir:-—I notice by the last issre of your Weekly that the Teacher's Convention comes of as usual, on Thursday and Friday. Iam sure the executive committee cannot be blind to the injustice thus done to the teachers of a large section of the Island, viz: Belfast, whose only means of travelling is by steamer Heather Belle, which makes her last trip for the week on Thursday, the day on which the Convention opens. Bel- fasters are thus deprived of the benefits accruing from attending its meetings.

When this Convention met last, I had personal experience of the fact that between forty and filty teachers, many of whom were employed in other parts of the Island, took passage for their homes, rather than be so inconvenienced. Would not Tuesday and Wednesday or Wednesday and Thurs-

ing. [tis to be hoped the committee will

A New Wor!d.

THE BIRTH OF & NEW STAR.

Astronomers have for the first time in the world’s history assisted at the birth of a new member of our stellar system. Dr. Harting. of the Dorpat University Obser- vatory in Russia, is the godfather of this by bo means little stranger, which may be thirty million times larger than our sun, and which by its mere birth threatens to upset many of our most cherished astro- nomical theories. |

|

ITS MOTHER

The nebula ot Andromeda is the mother of the new star. Between nine and ten o'clock on any clear evening the newly born imay be found in the eastern sky, well up from the horizon, as a glowing point of the eighth magnitude, surrounded by the cloud- like mist of the nebula from which it isprang. A good pair of opera glasses will | clearly ehow both the nebula and star. COMPUTATIONS AND GOSSIP. Our midwife astronomers are now hard at _work measuring, weighing and gossiping about the unexpected youngster, which has given them no cause tor complaint as regards either growth or ability to make a noise in the world. On Angust 10th the nebula was carefully scanned, but not the slightest signs of change were observed. The nebula, according tea photograph then taken, re- mained in its ordinary condition of a gigan- tic agglomeration of faintly glowing star mist, in which the most powerful telescopes could distinguish nothing except a faintly defined nucleus of nebula.

A POINT OF LIGHT.

On August 19th the new star was seen as a brilliant point near the nucleus, but the great importance of the discovery was not appreciated until this week. Since its sud- den birth the star has given constant cause for astronomical gossip on account of its irregular habits. Not only has it changed its position in the sky by ten seconds in one direction and two seconds in the other, but it also shines with an unsteady, flickering, orange-like light new to members of the staid star family

VAGARIFS.OF YOUTH.

These manifestations may be simply a species of stellar wild oats, from which the new star will emerge to be a credit to its mother, or they may portend a career as startling as its origin. Godfather Harting declines to predict his nursling’s future, and Mr. Richard A. Proctor, who has the reporter’s seat at all celestial events, is equally non-commital. Certain it is, at any rate, that by its birth, its life and per- haps its death, this dissolute star will teach astronomers many a valusble lesson con- cerning the universe. It may be that it will leave behind it, if it dies, a wreck of theories which will bring gray headed astronomers in sorrow to new beliefs.

NOT AN OLD SUN.

It is en odd fact that the variable stars which occasionally and unexpectedly appear in the heavens generally appear in the midst of gaseous nebule. This seems to emphasize still further the difference be- tween the new unknown and other new stars; for Andromeda is shown by the spectroscope to be a stellar, not a gaseous nebula. Moreover, all astronomers so far agree that the new star is nov 3 worn-out sun unexpectedly blazing into new life, but is, on the contrary, a new agglomeration of foree and matter suddenly created or brought together by laws not vet even to be guessed at by our science,

LAPLACE SHAKEN,

With its first flicker the new star shook Laplace’s nebular hypothesis until seams and flaws stand out all over this theoretical explanation of the creation; for a single “ catastrophic ” sun blazing out with full powers would utterly upset a theory which demands ages of slow accretion before such a sun could even be thought of. This star may prove also that onr universe is, after all, but ope system of stars, and that the theory of stellar systems, according to which ours is but one of many systems, is untrue.

THE KINSHIP OF WORLDS.

This new teacher seems to show that all the wonderful variety of suns—double, triple, and multiply, far distant sun clouds, and star dust and star vapor as well—are alike parts of our own system, not strangers subject to other laws and with other attri- butes. As this star by its birth has shown the universal kinship of worlds, may it not also enable astronowers to look forward to the end of all matter !

ITS TALE MUST TELL.

With the British Association discussing it from the Aberdeen point of view, with telescopes pointing from all the observa- tories of this hemisphere toward it, and with astronomical vicars writing letters to the Times about it, the new star must cer- tainly tell what it has to tell.

<->. -—

Onz of the grand sights at the Toronto Fair was a donkey race, and the ‘‘running, laughing and yelling crowd” are described as having ‘* endeavored by kicking, beating and dragging to fetch the donkeys around to the line.”” This was one of the wonder- ful sights on “‘ school children’s day.” It must have been highly intellectual sport, indeed, to witness ‘‘a yelling crowd” ‘* kicking, beating and dragging” the poor donkeys. A good bull-baiting scene, or a refreshing cock fight is, says an exchange, next in order for the youngsters. The ** attraction” business at some of the exhi- bitions appears to be carried a little too far.— Times.
