RABBI RABBINO Desires to Correct Certain State ments Made by The Post- Brunswick, Ga., Aug. 6.—To The Post:—lu 4 an editorial of recent date viz:—“The Woes of Israel” you say, apparently to his credit, that Israel has originally been the most war like nation of the Orient. This, however, is not so, and may in my estimation lead to a misundertand ' ing of the true Hebrew character, a . misrepresentation,which you do not intend to make. Allow me therefore dear sir, to make the following cor rections: Israel has been from the very be ginning of his national life been the religeous teacher of the natives of the earth, the messenger of Jehovah to promulgate the cause of true civil ization, which consists in harmony, peace, liberty and freedom, nobility, purity and virtue and true piety. All the battles, which Israel fought since his settlement in Palastins were not prompted by the ambition for conquest or military glory; they were merely fought in self defense, and here it is true, that his armies proved themselves patriotic, enthu siastic and consequently courageous, heroic and victorious. Israel has lost his political independence, but never his patriotism. In America we are Americans in the full and truest sense of the word; in Ger many our brethren are true and genuine Germans, devoted sons of the fatherland, and in France, Eng land, Italy and Turkey they are no ' less faithful and self-sacrificing pa triots of their respective countries and governments. Still the memory of Jerusalem, of our ancient political glory and national giandure is as dear to every truly Israelitish heart as ever. Agriculture was, as you correctly state, the original and al most only pursuit of Israel. Yet the fanaticism, religeous bigotry and ignorance of the middle ages shut out the children of the patriarchs from all else, and forced them to be come traders. But also in this po sition they soon became useful mem bers of society, yea the most usefu 1 in those dark ages, when the church and the army were the only two rec ognized professions. They promoted commerce by the interchange of com modities, and they promoted civili zation by the constant communica tion sojkept up between .the East and the West. Though the Israelitish people have thus learned to handle their trades to their bownest and to the best of the community, in which they live, it is nevertheless erroneous to think, that they control com merce, or that their financial and commercial power holds the purse string of the world. There are poor Israelites enough even in cities, where other denominations count their millionarcs in whole groups. The great mistake, that all Jews have money, or that they are the richest among all other denomina tions arises perhaps from the fact that as a rule the Israelites take care of their own poor and do not allow them to become a burden upon the community at large, and thus they escape the notice of the public. Hoping that these lines will prove acceptable to you, I am, Yours Respectfully, B. Rabbino, Rabbi B. T. Cong. IN THE RING. A Pugilistic Contest near Brunswick this morning.

Real Estate Promises to Advance at an Early Date. 4—• I I 111 Prospectors Buying Options on City and Suburban Property.-The Building Permits Granted by . the Council Last Night- During this hot weather real es tate is not especially attractive, but the indications are favorable for a brisk movement within the next few weeks. There are probably more prospec tors in the vicinity of this city than ever befoie at this season of the year, and options are being taken on large tracts of city and suburban property. The building and loan associations and the real estate agents who han dle property paid for by install ments are doing a good business. People of limited means are realiz ing as never before that they can buy property by the payment of a small sum each month, and the su burbs are filling up very rapidly with this class of investors. They invest for the purpose of securing a home, and a great many very pretty cottages are being built in this city. Almost any man can obtain enough to make the first payment on a house and lot and when thio is made, he does not have to pay more than rent would cost him. These transfers generally appear only on the books of the building and loan associations and of the real estate agents, hence do not figure in the list as taken from the register’s books. The increase in this class has been very large during the past few months and the prospects are that it will be even greater in the' fu ture. The building boom is at its i height. The ring of the hammer, the buzz of the saw and the sharp click of the trowel, as it strikes against the bricks are heard on every hand. A building boom of large proportions is on. Handsomer private residences or public buil dings arc being erected on almost every street in the city A Post reporter talked to several architects this morning and found their, all busy and cheerful over the outlook. Just read the following building permits that were granted by the city council last night: C. Downing, Jr., & Co., to erect a frame warehouse on New Town lot, near cooper shop, fronting on A street. Walter C. Jones, for the Metho dist Episcopal church, to erect a church on New Town lots Nos. 1922 and 1923, fronting on E street. W. F. Barkuloo, to build a two story house cn Old Town lot No. 502 corner Albany ond Dartsmouth street. Julia W. Owens, to build a two storj dwelling house on New Town No. 1318, fronting on C street. William Knox, to build three one story frame dwelling houses Town Commons lots N 093 and 95, fronting on Johnson street; also one one-story frame dwelling on New Town lot No. 2523, fronting on Wolf street.

That’s Where Two Young Africans Spent Monday Night. They spent Monday night on Buz zard’s Island, not because they pre pared to enjoy an evening among carrion crows but because their boat drifted away and there was no other alternation. Last Monday Isom Green and Henry Bledsoe, two negro boys who live in the neighborhood of Faney Bluff, decided to explore the little island between Brunswick and South Brunswick, known as Buzzard’s Is land. After battling with the busy bil lows for fully three hours, ti e explor ers reached their destination, fast ened their boat to projecting snag and struck a bee line for the center of the isle. The boys found that their progress was as much impeded by underbrush as it had been by a a rough sea. Finally, however, they reached the camping grounds of the buzzards and carrion crows. Having satisfied their curiosities by a combat survey of the field, the boys turned their faces toward the spot where the boat had been been moored. On arriving there they were dumbfounded to find the boat loose and drifting in mid stream. There was no possible way to regain it and the yonng Africans gave forth the most lusty whoops, hoping to at tract some passing skiff. Suffice it to say, Green and Bledsoe spent that that night on Buzzard’s Island. And that was not all. They spent nearly the whole of yesterday on the same spot. About 11 o’clock Green’s father came to the rescue and carried the hungry “devils” to “home, sweet home.” -■ ■ ♦—♦ Her Dress Was Ablaze. There was considerable excitement on L street this morning about 6 o’clock, us residents in that vicinity can testify. Susan Myers, a young negro girl, was attending to the cul inary department of her mother’s household, when her dress caught fire from the open fire place. When Susan took in the situation she screamed like a maniac and rushed through the house out into the street. Her mother followed in close pursuit, overtook her and ex tinguished the flumes. It then de veloped that Susan was more fright ened than burnt. No shams, m. humbugs found in the goods in to day’e pa per. J. J. Co, BUSY SESSION. 1 _____ .

When the British occupied Philadel phia during the Revolutionary war with an army numbering nearly 20,000 men, there was a bitter enmity between the British drummer boys and the boys of the city. What aggravated this feud was the fact that there were sev eral conspicuous Tory families in the place, the boys of which made common cause with the English drummers. Be sides this there were nuinliem of cabin boys from the great English fleet of transports and merchant vessels in the river who often came on shore and gave aid and comfort to their drum ming friends. As a great many of the patriotic fam ilies were absent, and as Quaker boys are not allowed to fight, there was something like an equality of numtiers between the two {>artiee. The fights between them were of almost dailyoc curreuce. The town boys had their headquarters ui an old brewery a little way out of the city, the entnuioes and approaches to which they fortified as strongly as they could. In those fighting days scarcely any one had any serious objection to the fiercest conflicts between boys, provided they fought only with the weapons that nature had given them and youfonned | to tiie rulee of the ring But oue day . iui English druimuer boy was so lasdly hurt bi an encounter between tlie Au>er ican boys and tboee mlheriug to the lung tliat he died soon after.
