Observed.
On Monday oveninc last becan the two
thousand and thirty-fourth anniversary of
uio labumuua among uie tiows oi mo reasi
of Chanukah, the meaning of which is the
rededication of the temple at Jerusalem to
the service ot the God of Israel, its clean
ing from pagan impurities and sacrilege,
and a period of joy athe deliverance from
oppression and persecution. The origin
and history of this festival is described in
the second book of Maccabees, one of the
apocryphal books, and also by Flavins Jo-
sephus, and may lo condensed as follows
Antiochns Lpiphanes, the illustrious
called by sonio, also, Epimanes, the mad
man, king of Syria who succeeded lus
cider brother on tho throne in the year 1
before Christ, had invaded and conquered
i.cypt, except tho city of Aloxandna, an
even captured the king of Egypt, Ttolemy
Pliilopater. Ho also sacked Jerusalem and
plundered tho temple. Ho was about to
annex Egypt to his Syrian kingdom, when
he was met by l'opilms, an emissary from
Rome, who, by command of tho Roman
Senate, ortlered him to evacuate tho con
quered kingdom of Egypt. Fearful of the
power and vengeance of Rome, he obeved
and retired with his forces. Being thus
prevented in Egypt, ho turned his wrath
against the Jews. In tho year ICS before
the Christian era, ho again fell npon
Palestine ami entered Jerusalem, and on
tho 2.1th day of tho month of Kislev,
tho 1 4.1th year, on tho 25th day of that
month, by us called Chasley, and by the
Macedonians Apollens, in tho hundred and
thirl y-lith Olympiad, as llavius Josephu?
gives it, Antiochns Epiphanes seized the
templo, despoiled it of everything valuable
that was in it. oven tho veils, which were
made of fino linen and scarlet, and all the
sacred troasure3. He also forbado the Jews
to offer their daily sacrifices, slow swin6 on
the altar, creeled a statue of Titus Olympv
ns in the temple, and compelled tho Jews
to lorsaco their worship and adore the
Groek gods, I mild temples and altars to
them and offer them swine in daily sacri
fice, and all who adhered to the rite of
circumcision wero cruelly put
death. This persecution lasted for
three years, and so cowed down
were a largo portion of tho ieople of Pales
tine liy the fear ol the king 8 vengeance,
that tho Samaritans humbly petitioned An
tiochns to have their templo on Mount
Gherizzim changed to the temple of Jupiter
Helleuius. But a revolt aroso. JUatathias,
a man of great popularity in Modin, called
his adherents together, and defeated the
kmc s forces sent against him in several en
gagements. Upon his death, his second
son, Judas jlaccaoeus, succeeded him as
leader of the revolution against Antiochus.
who sont several armies to crush the rebel
lion, raze tho whole rity of Jerusalem to
the ground, and destroy tho entire Jewish
nationality. But Judas Maccabeus was
victorious in every battle, and at the end of
tho tlurd year entered Jerusalem, and
freed his country from Syrian perse
cution. And it was again on tho 2.1th day
of tho month of Kisiso, in the 10.1th year
before Christ, exactly three years after the
desecration, that he proceeded to the
temple to purify it of tho pollution, brought
in new vessels, the candlesticks, tho table
and loaves of broad, tho altar of incenso,
which wero made of gold, and hung up the
veils at the gates and added doors to them,
and lighted tho candles and offered incense
and burnt offerings upon the new altar.
Thus, on tho third anniversary of its deso
lation, the temple was dedicated anew.
TliLs desertion of tho holy edifice by Anti
ochns was then and is even now claimed
by the orthodox Jews to have been in ful
filment of Daniel s prophecy : '"lea, ho
magnified himself even to the prince of the
host, and by him the daily sacrifice was
taken away, and the place of his sanctuary
was cast down.' ( Daniel viii. 1 1.)
Judas MaccalciiB celebrated the festival
of the restoration of the sacrifice at the
temple for eight days, and omitted no sort
of pleasures. And tho Jews were so de
lighted at the revival of their customs and
of the freedom of their worship that they
made it a law for their posterity to kcepjthe
festival of the restoration of the templo for
eight days, and this law has been obeyed
by all succeeding generations up to the
present timo.
I ho observances are somewhat in imita
tion ol the festivities directed by Judas
Maccabeus, and described in tho second
book of the Maccabees. In tho synagogues,
as well as in the dwellings, eight candle
sticks are placed in position, and one can
dle is lit tho first day, two on the second,
and so on, till on tho eighth day all the
eight candles liave been lighted, bread,
wine and other offerings are not omitted,
and hilarity and joyous gatherings of
friends and kindred, prayers, praises, and
thanks to God on every day during the con
tinuance of the festival are general. As
tho 2.1th day of the month of Kisley cor
responds this year with tho SOth of Novem
ber, and as tho Jowish day begins with the
preceding evening, this feast opened at
sundown uu Monday evening, und will
clo,e on Tuesday, Dee. 7, also at sunset.

An Old Timer Here.
L. Powers, formeily an extensive clothier
of this city, lint for the last eight years a
resident ol Mobile, was in the city yester
day, circulating among his old friends.
Two little maiden sisters, named Polly
and Sally Read, aged 85 and R7 years, ic
spcntivwy, lived together, in scanty cir
rumstances in the. town of Brook Held,
Madison county, New inrk, and their
only recreation was quarreling wilh each
other regularly twice a week, on the most
trivial provocation. The neighbors be
came so accustomed to this continued
wrangling that they took no notice ot it
till i; ceased, which it did on the lsth
ult. One of tho iieighlmis on that day
entered the dwelling and found Polly
dead on the floor, weltering in gore, and
Sally lying on the bed in a dying condl-
lion. 130111 wero icrriniy uiuuiaieu auom
the head and shoulders. Just beforo rtie
died Sally said she had quarreled with her
sister; she had seized a stick of wood,
and Polly secured a pair of tongs, and
with the weapons they had belabored
each oilier as long as they could use their
hands. They were so poor that the coun
ty Commissioners had to provide burial
for the bodies. Neither could read nor
write, nor had they over attended church
or Sunday school, as far as was known.

began to noiso it abroad that Jennie was

SUFFERINGS OS1 A MATKIBIOSflAIj

Terrible 3IIstakc of a Tailor,
CHAPTER I.
A few evenings sinca there misht have
been seen in a room in Una city a young
man busy, not with the affairs of State, but
r Its ? . ..
ui Buineimng more important to mm at
that particular moment. It was about 7
o'clock when a negro boy entered his door
and delivered to bim a bundle which con
tained a new suit of clothes just from, the
tailor shop. Tho bundle was carelessly
deposited on the bed, and the negro took
his departure.
crtiTTEB n.
In another portion of the city, in the
mansion of a well known citizen, had as
sembled a large company of young folks,
who were waiting patiently tho arrival of a
young man, who at 8 o'clock that evening,
according to announcement, would lead to
the altar one of Nashvillo's most accom
plished daughters. The appointed hour
had arrived, the preacher was in attend
ance and everything in readiness for the
nuptials, but the bridegroom cometh not.
A half hbur elapsed, and still the expected
visitor came riot.
CHAPTER III.
We roturn acain to the hero of this story.
It is half-past 8 o'clock, and the gas is
burning brightly in his chamber, beveral
good friends are with him, and jocund
sounds proceed from the quarter of the
building in which tho young man ia lo
cated. But the young man himself is not
in a laughing vein, but on the contrary,
distress and disappointment is marked
upon a hitherto unclouded brow. He was
twenty-one years of age that night. He wa3
neither too tall, nor too short, but of respect
able size, say about one hundred and forty
pounds in weight, and his handsome figure
had often been the subject of remark. At
the hour above mentioned he was standing
in front of a mirror, arranging his toilet.
His boots were hietily polished, his white
neck-tie was properly adjusted, his coat
was a perfect fit, and a delicately figured
white satin vest was a prominent part of
his dress, but a little singular, he bad not
yet donned his pantaloons.
CHAPTER IV.
A few minutes after the loud laughing
that proceeded from that room, there was
a rap at the door, and in rushed a gentle
man who turned out to be the tailor. He
hsd a bundle under his arm, and his ap
pearance was evidently of groat relief to
the young man whose countenance seemed
for the moment to beam with delight.
"How is this," said tho young man, ad
dressing the tailor, "ihe pantaloons yon
sent mo are by far too large." "Oh yes,"
said the tailor, "it was one grand mis
take'" "Tho pantaloons I sent yon were
made for Sam Riddleberger, and in tying
nn the packages, the boy placed your pants
in the wrong bundle." The remainder pf
this liiohly thrilling narrative will bo pub
lished in tho next number of tho Battle
Axe tif Freedom and flmbbiiif! Hon of

Tlie London Time' (city article) of Nov. 17 sayi: !
According to recent statistics tlie United States
still continue by the remittance ol li:nls to pay for
an excess of importations from Europo at tho rale
of manv millions sterlimriier annum. The princi
pal financial writers of New York and Philadelphia
Irom time to time urge their reader to cniwider
how long this is to go on.
To merchants and capitalist on thu side the
question in rqualty mmtuittau. A transference of
several millions sterling of bonds Irom American to
European holders amounU simply to the fart that
for every future year the United States govern
ment must remit to Europe a proportionate sum in
Ihe chape of interest, which, If tho bonda had not
been sold, would have been payable to parties at
homo. Hence, although the national debt may be
stationary as regards its nominal amount, or may
even be steadily reduced, Its burden as a drain
npon the internal resources of the country munt
rapidly increase. Such increase, however, will of
course not be felt so long as the sale of bond con
tinues to be kept up in a more than proportionate
degree. But it does not follow that a eale of na
tional obligations to foreigners, and the conse
quent creation of an annual liability to remit an
amount of interest to them, must necessarily be
disadvantageous. The bonds sent to Europe are
sold, not given, to the takers, and the point is, do
tho Americans get a commodity in return that may
be equal in annual productive power to the amount
of interest they have agreed to pay In consideration
for it? If such be the case there is no injury- to
either party. Supposing they elected to receive
gold, and were to lock It up, there would be then a
dead annual loss of the interest they were
paying; or, supposing that instead they
were to receive consignments of silks, wines
or other perishable or consumable articles
of luxury, they would then be worse off, since they
would have through all time the dead weight of
annual interest in place of having gold or Its
equivalent in store, by parting with which
they might at any given period extinguish the
liability. On the other hand, if the money re
ceived from Europe for the bonds were expended
in improvements in land, in the construction of
'profitable railways or other public works, or In the
importation of labor, the result from augmented
production mlg.it not merely compensate for the
payments to be made, but yield a constantly in
creasing surplus. It is for those who are interest
ed, either as investors or otherwise, to form their
own opinion as to the degree in which theso sever
al modes prevail. At the same time it is always
necessary to recollect that people who are liable
for a debt are apt to complain of its burden while
they entirely forget the benefits it may have
brought to them, and that an annual heavy pay
, fl.,..n.m h.a a much more danfferous
element of unpopularity than would exist in the j
case of a liability held exclusively ai nome.

Tmrrm Floyd, CincinEati, 4 F. m.
The river at this point was rising last
evening, with, five feet large at Harpetli
Shoals. Weather clear and cold.
The 'Pmmn Floyd arrived last night
from Cincinnati, and Capts. Chenowith
and Wise reported immediately aftenvarda
at these headquartera.
Johnny Harper arrived in tho city last
evening by the Louisville train, and will
take bit place to-day aa clerk cf the Talis
man. Among the distinguished river notables
in the city wo notice W. B. Graceyand Bill
Baker, both of whom belong, to the' staff of
'the Alpha.
The charter of the John Lmnsden in tie
vansville and Cairo trade' has expired, and
that craft will proceed, to this point to take
her place in the packet .trade-between, here
and Cairo, leaving next Wednesday.
The fino display of meat at the store, of
Harrison & Son last evening is evidence
sufficient that Tip Jenkins is determined to
keep tho boats supplied during the season
with something extra. Ex-whar&aaster.
Tucker is Tip a chief of staff.
The fine passenger steamer Talisman is
the regular packet for Cairo at 4 r. sr. to
day, giving through tickets to St. Louis,
Memphis and New Orleans. The veteran
and experienced Capt. Strong commands,
with Johnny Ilarpor in the olBce.
The Emma Floyd returns to Cincinnati
to-day at 4 p. ir. She is commanded by
Capt. J. M. Chenoweth, and Capt. IU W.
Wise is at the head of the financial depart
ment.
Tho Dubuque Times of Saturday says:
"Although the whistle of some adventurous
steamer is now occasionally heard resound
ing over our blufls, yet navigation on the
upper river has practically closed for the
year 18C9. Lake Pepin has closed np for

The Cincinnati Ecening Chronicle ot ihe
.TOth ult., says the R. C. Grey is loading
for Nashville and all points on the Cum
berland river. She has had a full length
hurricane roof put on, and offers superior
accommodations for furniture, having wide
and roomy upper guards, all under cover
and protected from the weather. She has
entered the trado to stay in it, and asks a
share of the patronage. Her officers are
well-known as reliable and courteous gen
tlemen, and will soon be very popular in
the trade, dpt. I. N. Whittaker has com
mand. The Cairo Eiening Bulletin of the 20th
ult, says: "A report is in circulation at
various cities, that there is no coal at Cairo
for steamboats, and steamers have been
much inconvenienced by tilling out with
coal at places above and below, under the
impression that they could not supply
themselves here. This is a great mistake.
We havo at all times plenty of coal, from
tho Ohio river and also from tho Illinois
mines, and it is scarcely within the bounds
of possibility for Cairo to get out of coal.
Pittsburg coal sometimes becomes scarco
hero, as it does at Louisville and Cincin
nati, but tho Ohio river and Illinois coal
can always bo obtained here."
The Evan8vil!e Journal of Monday says:
Tho Lconidas achieved a great triumph
on her last trip down going out of the
river with COO tuns of freight on 31 inches
of water. Tho oldest stcamboatmen at
Cincinnati and Lonisvillo, and some fow
here, offered to Lot that she would not got
out of tins river. But Dan. Weaver, our
own pilot, was at tho wheel, with Frank
O. Carroll as bin partner, and they took
her through with scarco an hour's
detention. At Memphis she was pre
sented with the most beautiful
and remarkable pair of buck-horns we ever
saw. They are at least a foot long, not
over half an inch in diameter, and each
antler has a single prong at the same dis
tance from tho tips. Old hunters say they
never saw the like. Attached to them is
a card bearing the following inscription :
"Steamer Leonldas,
