All aro free to attend who de sire to do so. The Day of Atonement is commanded to be observed in Exodus xxx, 1') and is rigorously observed by every Israelite in tho land by abstaining wholly from food and drink. The bodily privation is only a reminder to attune the mind to eouipre- heud the nothingness of all that is hu man, and to ask of God some portion of that holy spirit attainable only by devout communion with the source whence a'l blessings flow. By humbly asking forgiveuoss of God for laws violated, aud promising sincero abslineuce for tho future, the “seed of Abraham” believe that their sins will be come white as snow. Not so, howover, in wrongs done to fellow man. In all such c.ses restitution must be made wherever possible. Pardon asked and promises lcligiously made, theu and not till then, is tho Heavenly Father sought to seal the best efforts of weak humanity. When this is sought to bo accomplished, the resonant sounds of the closing service (NogelHh) pour fourth from thankful souls aud peace is mado with God. On the 2(»th and 27th the Feast of Tab ernacles occuis, which commemorates the ingathering of tho harvest and also the departure of I lie children of Israel out of Egypt, when they dwelt in booths. This feiist lasts eight days, with the ortho dox. In olden times tho people gave ex pression to their joy by binding together the j aim, the myrtle aud tho willow, aud took also the citron to iho temple. These represent four classes of mankind. The palm, tho rich and haughty, but doing uo good with his wealth ; the citron, the man of possessions, who, liko the frugrance of tho citron, which is enjoyable by all, uses them to blear mankind ; the myrtle, the modest man who gives of his means un ostentatiously ; tho willow, tho poor man who lives upon tho nourishment of hi-i neighbor. Moses thus enforced tho les- tlint in unity there is- strength ; that they would bo overcome, if divided ; that their religious worship must be observed collectively as a people, and bo responsi ble for tbo church to creator. Women and children, like tho citron, cannot bo bound with the others, but by good deeds can shed a fragrance on all that do good to tho human race—low and Christian. Tho command for tho observance of the Feast of Tabernacles can be found in Exodus xxiii, to, and Leviticus xxiii, 33. Service^at tho Syuagoguo comiuenco this evening at 7 o’clock.

Why is it that tho Charleston mer chants, and the Georgia, and Atlanta and West Point railroads do not enter this point as a competitor for tho cotton and other carrying trade of Columbus—a place that annually ships some 55,000 bales of cotton and rocoivos several million dollars worth of goods, besides sending out immense quantities of factory pro ducts ? This is a question daily propounded by tho morchauts aud cotton men of Columbus. They say it is be cause tho Western Railroad is not allowed to pro rate with them, but this does not answer. Consider tlio immense capital of the connecting roads, and tlio presont condition of tho Western. They own enough stock in tho Western ltuilroad to have a say-so about tho mat ter. So think over busi ness men. They might gain a largo car rying trado by adopting some mersuro by which to overcome tho local tariff be tween here and West Point.
