The Lost Tribes of Israel.

Vt the last meeting Of the British ASso-
cation for the Advancement oi Science, Mr..
Kennedy communicated the following aS the
result OF his researches into the interesting
and much cuntroyertcd question Of tie lost
tribes Of Israel:
That the number of those taken away in
the different captiyitcS had been much over
estimated, only the principal people having
been made captive as hostages, with the
men Of war and the others most available rs
slaves; that the main body of the ten tribes
was not taken away by the Assyrans, but
were left in their ancient possessions. when
they became again partially subjected to the
kings Of Judah; that the tribes that can be
supposed to have been really removed were
the Reubentes, the Gaddcs, with the half
tribe of Manassch, and that of Naphthali,
who, being placed on the Fast of Jordan
and ON the North, were most exposed to the
attacks Of the enemy; that the greatest part
Of those who had been taken away TO Baby
Ion, or their descendants aud the descend
ants Of those taken away by the Assyrians,
returned 10 this ancient land; that, while in
Babylonia, Assyria, and other countries ol
their conguefcfs, they could not be supposed
to have lived apart by their tribes, so that
in the space Of two hundred years and up
wards those taken away mHst have lost al
most every distinction Of tribes, and thus
have become prepared to form part Of that
restored nation which took the name Of
Jews from the principal tribe among them;
that the tribe Of Judah having been the
most numerous, ami their city Ol Jcrli'a'm
the centre round which the lsraclites con
grcgated, ii follows as a natural consequence
that their name would become the prcrallina
one, that the anna lgamatiOn or union into
one people Of all the lSraclitcs was in ac-
cordancc with the prediction Of the prophet;
that the remnant Of the INraeitcS left IN
liabylonia and issyra, though smaller in
number than that portion which was restored
to their ancient possessions, might yet have
increased to an INN usc multitude ~ the
SIX hundred years which have elapsed be
tween the restoration and the time OF Jose
phuS, but that the remnant left beyond the
Euphratcs cannot properly be considered 10
have been the representatives. Ot the ten
tribes, much less the entire body Of the ten
tribes; that in the time Of JOScphuS all dis
tlnctlOns of the other tribes having become
lost, except those Of Judah and Benjamin,
he enormously supposed they were the on
Iy tribes that had returned, aud that the
other ten tribes still remained beyond the
Euphratcs that in case the dream Of Esdras
respecting the ten tribe, having taken coun-
sci among themselves and gone into further
country where never mankind dwclt, Was a
mere dream or vision, as it in reality pro
iesscs to have been.
