The Anglo Saxon Confederation
The Thirteen Tribes or Israel.

The following letter has been receiv-
ed by ex.City Treasurer Francis Vim
cent, from o prominent and educated
Wilmingtonian, belonging to one of our
first families. The views are ingenious
and unique. Mr.. Vincent, however,
as the editor Of the"Heir Of the World, /"
(the New York Magazine that copied
his memorial on this subject to Con-
gress) said F: advocates this measure
on purely political and commercial
grounds" He has not examined into
the religious idea ofthe matter. The
letter is as follows:
To FRANCIS VINCENT Dear sir:--I
have teen much interested in your
scheme for uniting the Anglo Saxon
Nations, and also the notices of the press
upon this subject, and especially by
the letter which saw in the REPuBLI-
CAN, and in which the writer ex-
presses his belief that the Anglo Sax
ons are the descendants ofthe lost tribes
of Israel.
Ibelieve also from prophecies and
passages of holy writ, that in this
country (the United States Israel Is to
be restored. The Scripture says Israel
10 to be restored in Gland Of unrival-
led villages" where the people will
dwell in safety. That this land lies
between the two great seas, wiz. the
Atlantic and the Pacifc.) That it
| is mountainous. That the people
Of this land Is made up Of all ma.
tions. In the land that has
been drought back with the
sword' viz: the Revolutionary War
believe this land is the 'WiIderness"
spoken of, to which the "woman who
was to be delivered of the "man
child" had to flee to escape from the
beasts or dragon. The woman repre-.
ssnting the church. The imam child
probably type of our Saviour, and
the beast the Roman church or Pope.
jAll this has to come to pass. The Pur'
itans, Quakers, etc, having to flee
| from oppression in Europe, found re-
| fuge In this promised land. Where is
there land that answers this descrip'
ton but the United States? Oar crea-
tor favors a Republican form Of govern.
ment. Before the Israelites clamored
for a king, their government was
similar to our present govern
ment looking to God as their
king, and Moses as President, certain
rulers from each tribe forming their
congregation similar to our Congress.
When they demanded King the bible
said "God was wrotk" and in his anger
gave them Saul for King. Another
similarity between the two Govern
ments was: There was IL tribes In
Israel, but Joseph's tribe was divided!
making Is. There was originally Il
colonies or states, but Delaware being
taken off Pennsylvania made thirteen
States which adopted the constitution!

Joseph having two portions. believe
that our Creator 10 opposed to mon
arches, and they will all experience 9
downfall before many dsys-befOre the
millennium at least. Then our Saviour
will reign over the earth.
Iwsuld like to know your opinion on
these subjects. l remain,

Garacld's msjorIty In Ohio.

Col. Tom Young, of Ohio, who IS now
in Washington, says that the Republi-
ian party in Ohio was never in finer
condition for campaign; that the dis
annointment whioh may have been felt
al frst amongst the friends Of Secretary
Sherman that he was not nominated,
has been forgotten and Garfield will re-
ceive a majority which will eclipse
ANYTHING since the war. He says the
enormous German element of Ohio will
nracticslly vote en- mssse for Garfield
and in formation received BY their rep
rassntstiye men shows that this feeling
nrevails almost universally amongst
the Western Germans.

TEXT BOOKS FOR SCHOOLS.
The state Board or Education Decides
To Make No Change.

We are in receipt of copy of the
report Of the State Board of Education
on the text book question, to the teach
ers and school officers Of the State,
which reads as follows:
The matter Of the proposed changes
in the text books at present used in the
public schools of the State, especially
as regards to the realers and arith-
metics, has been examined by che State
Board of Education with the utmost
care in all its bearings. It is not to be
denied that some of the books that we
have considered are superior TO those
of similar kind now in use; butwe have
been unable to devise any plan for the
introduction Of new books that will not
subject parents to such additional ex-
pense as they seem hardly able to afford
owing to the depressed condition of
business affairs throughout the State.
We feel confident, moreover, that our
efficient corps of teachers will employ
successfully in the future the readers
and arithrnctics that they have port
itably used during the last four years,
and that they will cheerfully await the
arrival OF more suspicious season for
making the changes desired.
In order to bridge over the gap be-
tween the small and large arithmetics Of
Robinson's series, Of which some teach
ers complain, we have recommended
Robinson's Rudiments, which may be
used together with the other two books
of the series, or to the exclusion OF the
first book, or not at all as may be
deemed best in the discretion of the
teacher.
The Rudiments will be retailed by
dealers at IS cents per copy The hrst
book OF Robinsons SEXES will be re-
tailed hereafter at 10 cents, and the
Complete Arithmetic at 81 l5-a re-
duesion on the former Of Fc cents, and
ON the latter OF Is cents. Ii will be
understood that no books have been
reazlopted, and that the text books now
in use in the public schools will be re-
tanned until otherwise ordered by the
Board.

A representative of the SILVER STATE

Indians say that species of cane, re-

where it grew lExuriantly. A sweet

lasses, exuded from the stalks and be-

Charley Thacker, the Piute inter-
prefer, is believer in Mormonism to the
extent of two wives. Charley is q
handsome young buck, yet the other
members of his tribe say his wives
think more Of other men than they do
of him. When the Princess Sallie re-
turned from her conference with Carl
Schurz, at Washington, she was in
vited by Charley to stop with him in
his tent, across the river from town.
Her Highness accepted the invitation,
and held court in the wickiup. OF
course three women could not live long
in a tent, without plotting some mis-
chief, SO the Princess arranged for a
trip TO Virginia City. He says they
got uproriously drunk, and were making
his wickiup too warm for him. He
tied his wife's hands behind her back
and attempted to gag the Princess to
keep her from talking, but, did not sue
coed in doing 50. Night before last one
of his wives left town, he thinks, for
Virginia City, and he has not seen
her since. He is very anxious to have
her return, as she was his first wife,
and the second one refuses to live
with him, unless wife No. returns.

EVENT and COMMENT.

All New York is stirred over the arrl-
val Of the splendid Egyptian obelisk,
known rs Clopatra's Needle. The ves-
eel on which it was shipped at Alexan-
sirla, arrived at Sandy Hook last Tues
day. The Needle was made In the Sth
year Of the reign Of Augustus Caesar 1860
years before the birth of Christ. So that
Americans can now read inscriptions
that were engraved before the Rcdemp-
ton Of Man. The Masonic Order can
now look on the curious records that are
said to prove that Masonry was mighty
and fourishcd before the shepherds
ran1ped beneath the blazing star OH the
plains Of Judea.
