TILE UENTILE AND .1 LAV AFFAIR. Henry Marti Beceher on the llillon- Neligmtin All’ll Ir. New York, June 24. — TJev. Henry Ward Reedier ntmouneed from the pulpit to-day that bin discourse that evening would he in relation to Jews. The announce ment attracted a large congregation, and there were many unable to gain admit tance. He look for his text the34th verse, 11th of Acts. Mr. Boodier said that he became intimately acquainted with Mr. Seligman at the twin Mountain house and knew him well, lie knew him to be an estimable gentleman in every way, and sense of the word. The Jews formed a large portion of onr community, and wc must sav they were not only execl'ent and thrifty citizens, hut exceptionally law-aid ding people. lie considered that a great insult had been put upon them, but it had so shocked the intelligent and refined peo ple—those whose opinions were worthy of respect —that it led the Isrcalitcs of the country to believe they were bold in great respect by their Christian fellow-citizens. He further remarked that they had never stolen ten millions from the city, and en deavored to make terms in jail. Of all people, they were the last that should have been insulted, lie did not think it a good sign to see a man who had inherited his money cast an insult upon a man who made his estates by honest and honorable indus try'. In the end, he thought, good would come of (he insult, and lie would advise them not to hold a public meeting or put on armor to fight mosquitoes. A lie lie I Seoul'* Advent lire. Central McClellan in the I’hiladclpliia Timet. When the Federal army occupied Cul pepper Court Mouse, and the Confederate army lay in Orange county, Virginia, Gen eral l.ec desired certain information which it seemed could he best obtained by an in dividual scout, and Stringfellow was elect ed for the service. It was necessary that he should penetrate the enemy's camps, remaining concealed as long as possible, and return when he had collected the de sired information. His operations were to be conducted mostly at night, lie wished to be accompanied by two men. one of whom, Farrish by name, had bis home in the immediate vicinity of the enemy’s camps, and being intimately acquainted with all the country, could accurately guide him from place to place in the night ashy daylight. The expedition was un dertaken on foot, as the distance was not great and conccalmant was a prime impor tance. The men were clad in their own uniform as scouts, not.spies. The country was a difficult one for the operations of a scout. From the long and frequent occu fiation by both the contending armies, the and had been almost entirly denuded of its timber, and only hero and there a few thin clusters of trees remained standing. One day had passed since they had entered the enemy’s lines, ami with nightfall (bey com menced their wanderings among the hostile camps, mainly with the purpose of locating the different corps, and of ascertaining whether any troops had been detached from the army of the Potomac. The night had been nearly consumed in this way when, reaching one of the clusters of trees of which I have spoken, they laid themsel ves down to catch a few moments rest. A single blanket covered the three men. Treacherous, fatal sleep ! Their fatigue was great, and the night was further spent than they had supposed, and the sun was shining bright in tlieir eyes when a party of six Federal officers, with their muskets in their hands pulled away the blankets which covered them, amt saluted them with a harmonious “Good morning, John ny Reb ! wake up!” Stringfellow, lying upon bis back, was the first to arouse and to comprehend his situation. Knowing that an open attempt to seize his arms would draw upon himself instant death, he feigned to be only half awakened, and, much to the amusement of his tormentors, turned upon his side muttering and grum bling at being awakened, telling them to go away and let him alone. Hut by tuni ng upon his side lie gave to himself an op portunity of placing his hand unobserved, upon the handle of his pistol, and in an other second he sprang upon his feet and opened lire. Ilis companions joined in the attack, ; nd for a few moments the firing was rapid and fatal. The Federal soldiers stood their ground, but at such close quar ters the musket was no match for the re volver. There was no time to reload un der the quick eye of Stringfellow. and once discharged the muskets were useless. A few seconds terminated the encounter ; in which Stringfellow found himself the sole survivor of his party. Farrish was killed ; his other comrade had disappeared, he knew not how; four of the Federal soldiers lay dead at his feet, and the two others, having thrown down their empty guns, were running for their lives. But victor in this fight, perils multiplied themselves around him. The trees among which lie stood were surround ed on every side by open fields dotted thick with the enemies’ tents, some at a distance, and some close at hand. Concealment, was impossible, and lie must run for his life ; Uut run in what direction he might, enemies would be sure to intercept his course, for the adjacent camps bad been aroused by the firing, and the soldiers who had escaped would be sure to return with ■others to avenge the death of tlieir com rades. At a distance of a few hundred yards a little branch made its way through the open fields towards the river. Its banks were fringed with bushes, and while it offered only an utterly forlorn hope, Stringfellow turned towards it and ran. He was seen by those who had already started for his capture; seen to cross the open field ; seen to enter the brush on the bank of the stream. And now vindictive shouts announced that the enemy felt sc sure of their prey. But not so ! Entering tha bed of the stream, a kind Providence guided him to the spot where the waters had hollowed out for him a hiding place beneath the roots of an old stump. Under neath this bank and behind these roots he forced his body, having hastily collected what driftwood was within reach still fur ther to conceal his person ; and there he lay, half covered by the water and mud, and awaited the result. From every di rection men were hurrying to the spot, with the perfect assurarce that the daring enemy would soon be within their power! For Ion", long hours did scores of search ers continue to examine every foot of the brush that lined the stream. Many times ! did hustle feet pass directly over Stringfel- I low’s body, and once a man more inouisi ' live than the others stooped, while walking in the bed of the stream, to examine the very spot where he lay. But the drift wood which ho had .skillfully arranged for his concealment deceived the man, and he passed on without making the discovery. Toward afternoon the search was aban doned. But not until the noise of the camps was hushed in slumber did String fellow dare to leave his retreat. Then, following for some time the course of the little stream, he passed in safety out of the enemy’s line, swam the Kantefon be tween the pickets, and. thankful to God for his deliverance, found himself once more among his friends. At a Sunday school a teacher asked a little boy if he knew what the expression “Sowing tares ” meant. “Courlh I do,” said he pulling a part of his ( rowsers around in front. “ There’s a tear my ilia sewed ; I feared it when I was sliding down hill.” Mrs. Ilndlock, of Newport, Yt., met in the street a man who had circulated derog atory stories about her. She had prepared herself for the occasion. First, she took pepper from her pocket and threw it in his eyes; secondly, she took a rawhide from her bustle ami struck him several times with it; thirdly, she took a rotten egg from her hand bag and smashed it in his face. A young girl from the country, being on a visit to a Quaker, was prevailed on to accompany him to the meeting. It hap pened to he a silent one, none of the breth ren being moved to utter a syllable. When the Quaker left the meeting-house, with his young friend, he asked : “ How didst Ihee like the meeting?” To which she pet tishly replied: “Like it! Why, 1 can see no sense in it—to go and sit for whole houis together without speaking a word. It is enough to kill Satan himself!” “ Yes, my dear,” rejoined the Quaker ; “that is just what we want.” Grant’s distinguished reception by the royalty and nobility of England is very gratifying to him. His feelings and con duct on the occasion of his dining with the Prince of Wales were no doubt similar to those described by tbe New York Sun, on another grand occasion at Washington, some years ago: “ A pleasant lie nmole, A holy wink lie wunk ; <). it wan a glorious ihing to think Tlio generous llioe;;htnlie thunk.” TUTTfS_PILLS A Noted Divine says They are worth their tv eight in gold .

He has snccceded in combining In them the hcretoiore antagonistic qualities of a strengthen inrr. purgative,anJa pur • ijyiug tonic.

Thus the system is nour ished, and by their tonic action on the digestive or gans, regular and healthy evacuations are produced.
