THE LOST TRIBES or ISRAEL.

Mr.. Kenncday communicated the fol.
lowing to the British Association for the
advancement Of Science, as the result, oil
his researches into the interesting and
much contrOverted question Of the lost
tribes of Israel:
That the number Of those taken away
in the different captivties, had been
much over estimated, only the principal
people having been made captive as hos
tages, with the men Of war, and others
most available as slaves that The main
body of the ten tribes were not taken
away by the Assyrians, but were left in
their ancient possessions, when they be-
came again partially subjected to the
king Of Judah that the tribes that can
be supposed to havosbeen really remov-
ed were the Reu5cnites. the Gadites,
with the half tribes of Manassah,. and
that of Naphthalia, who being placed on
the cast of Jordon and on the north
were most exposed to the attacks Of the
enemy: that the grcatestNpart of those
who had been taken away to Babylon, or
their descendants, and The descendants
Of those taken away by Assyriaus, return
cd to their ancient land that while in
Babylon, Assyria, and other countries of
their conquerors, they could not be sup
posed to have lived apart by their tribes,
so that in the space OF two hundred years
and upwards, those taken away must
have lost almost every distinction of
tribes, and thus have been prepared to
form part Of That restored nation which
took the name Jew from the principal
tribe among them that the tribe Of
Judah having been the moot numerous,
and their city of Jerusalem the centre
around which the IsracIile8 cOngrcgalcd,
1t follows as u natural consequence. that
their name would become Il prevailing
ono that the amalgamntion of union into
one people of al! The lsraclites was in ac-
cordAncc with the prcdictioAs Of the

elites left in Babylonia and Assyria,

possessions, Knight yet have incgcaScd to

years which elapsed between the first
restoration aNL tie time Of Joscphus
but that the remnant left beyond the Eu-
pirates cannot properly be:considcrcd to
have been the representatives of the
tribes thlt in the tim" ot Josephus, all
distinctions Of The other tribes having be-
come lost, except those Of Judah and
BenJlmin, he errnHeouslv supposed that
they were the ouly tribes tbnI had return
ed, and that the other ten tribes still re-
manned beyond the Euphrrtes that, in
-
.Ihe ten tribes having taken council among
themselves, and gone into q further coun-
try where never mankind dwelt. was q
mere dream Or vision, as it in reality pro-
lcSSes to have been.

Long before there was any word ot
disruption, and when the Church Of Scok-

from her communion as the glory Of ths
whole earth. the following conversation
ensued between his reverence, now in the
Free Church, and one of the hearers in a
rural parish, on a Sunday forenoon, i'm

BEYOND THE RIVER.


Time is river deep and wide;
And while along its banks we stay,
We see our loved ones DER its tide
Sail from our sight away, away.
Where arc they sped-thcy who return,
No more to glad our longing eyes?
They've passed from Iifcs contracted bourne
To land unseen, unknown, that lies
Beyond the river.
TITS hid from view but we may guess
How beautiful that realm must be
For glcamings of its lovelincss,
sIn Visions granted, oft We see.
The very clouds that over it throw
Their veil, unraiscd for mortal sight,
With gold and purple tintings glow,
Reflected from the glorious light
Beyond thoVriver.
And gentle airs, 80 sweet, so calm,
Steal sometimes from tho viowiess sphere
The mourner feels their breath of balm
And soothc1 sorrow dries the tear. .ss
And sometimes listning car may gain
Enhancing sound that higher floats
The echo of distant strain;
OF harps and voices blended notes,
Beyond the river.
THERE are our loved ones in their rest
They've crossed Times River-row no more
They heed the bubbles on its breast,
Nor feel the storms that sweep its shore.
But THERE Puro love can live, can last
They look for US their home to share
What joyful greeting wait us THERE
Beyond the river.
