Show Tub cruel persecution which the czar of Russia is waging against the Jews Is disappointing to thoso who had begun to hope that this autocrat was going to become nn enlightened ruler. Instead of this, ho is placing himself with such blind despots as Louis the Hth, who in bigoted zeal for a creed Inflicted an irreparable blow on the strength of his kingdom. We suspect however that the czar has not even the poor excuse of the fanatic, but is lafliiencod, solely by a mistaken, view of state policy. |
