tho two parties were balanced Mt the ma
tional capital. In 1881 the Republicans
were ostcnsibly ahead in tho Califor-
MIA Legislature. but the Democrats. not

and to retain It for some years. Tho outcome
OF the Presidential election OF 1884 was on the

obtained a majority OF the Legislature and five

1887 brought to the executive Office II. W.
Waterman. whose popularity had obtained for
him the Lieutenant-Go vernorship on tho
Republican ticket. Five OF the Congressman
were likewise Republicans. but in the Legisla-
ture the Democrats were dominant. The Ad-
ministrntion Of Gov, Waterman gave satisfac-.
ton to the community. and many OF his sug-
gestions were adopted by the Legislature and
took the form OF laws. Among these may be
mentioned certain acts amending the irriga-
tion laws and others for improving the Civil
Code OF Procedure. for establishing reformed
school and school Of industry. and for aiding
public institutions and improvements. No
action was taken. however. on the Governors
recommendation that measures should be
taken to suppress the tramp nuisance. which
is growing with every year more serious in
California, and calling forth urgent requests
for it's abolition from all sections OF the State.

remains that In 1876. after a successful cam
paign against Salvador and Honduras. when
he had these two republics at his mercy. he
treated them with generosity. Another fact
should be mentioned to his credit. For many

HI,

Brugsch seems to have no doubt that tho
Pharaoh who knew Joseph and made him
his principal official was one OF the Hyksos
rulers. He examines with much care the
| chronological relation Of the era OF the Shop
herd Kings to the migration OF Israel into the
land Of Egypt According to the statement in
the Bible the Hebrews. from the immigration
of Jacob into Egypt until the exodus. remained
430 years in the Milo country. Since tho cxo-
dus took place in the time Of Meneptah H.. the
son of Rameses 1.-the Pharaoh OF tho op-
preston It tho year B c. 1900 may be &C.
ccpted as an approximate date for that
event II We add to this 430 years as
expressing tho duration Of the sojourners in
Egypt, VIC arrive ut tho year Ii. c. 1870 as the
probable date for tho immigration Of Jacob
and for tho period OF the official career OF Jo-
seph Mt tho court OF Pharaoh. In other words.
the time Of Joseph must have fallen in the
era OF the Hyksos domination. about the reign
OF tho foreign prince Nub. who. according to
memorial stone erected under Rameses H..
was ruling four hundred years before. that is
to say. in b. &. 1850. The suppositon that it
was during tho Hyksos era that Joseph was
sold into Egypt finds confirmation In the writ
ings Of Goorgius Syncelus who states that
Joseph ruled the land In tho reign Of the Shep-
herd King Apophis. whose ago Is known to
have preceded the commencement Of the
eighteenth dynasty iB c. 1000 by only a
few years. Moreover. Brugsch considers
that an old inscription at El-kab must have
been made by contemporary Of Joseph. and
that by means Of this record 1t Is possible to
prove that Joseph and the Hyksos are INSOFAR

SECOND NOTICE.

In former review of E1upl Under the Pha-
rdohs. by HEINRICH BRuGscH- BEY tScribners).
we brought the story OF the Nile land down to
the extinction Of the twelfth dynasty. an event
assigned to B. c. 2233. according to the au-
thor's chronology which. as We pointed out
does not err on the side of extravaganza. but
places the first reign OF the first dynasty 1850
years later than the date preferred by Boeckh.
BY far the larger part OF the volume before us
is devoted to history Of Egypt from the close
OF tho twelfth to the downfall of the
thirteth dynasty. that is to say. from
b. c. 2233 to tho suppression Of the
last native ruler by the Persians. about
the middle Of the fourth century b. G.. not
long before the conquest OF the Persian en-
pire by Alexander. What We have hitherto
ATTEMPTED to outline with the help Of the au-
thor's researches and deductions was the
record of the old Egyptian empire. SO called.
and of the middle empire under which Thebes
became the seat of government. There re-
mains for delineation tho long and more or
less anarchic period. commonly described as
the era of the Shepherd Kings. followed by the
rise. outward expansion. and eventual disn-
tegration Of the New Empire. which in turn
was succeeded by several spasmodic efforts to
revive the prosperity OF the Nile country under
a native ruler.

The name Hyksos has como down to us from
tho days of Manetho. and the researches Of
Brugsch among the monuments have con-
firmed the tradition as to the contents of lost
book OF that history. 1t Is In u quotation from
Manetho that Jesephus tells us that In the
reign OF n Pharaoh called Timeus. "a people OF
inglorious origin from the regions Of the East,
suddenly attacked tho Nile land. OF which they
took possession easily. Then they made one
OF themselves king. whose name was Salatis.
and who. having fixed his residence at Mem
phis. collected the taxes from the upper and
lower country and placed garrisons In the
most suitable places. Avaris. In particular. a
city situated to the east OF the Bubaste arm OF
tho Nile. was fortified with very strong walls
and occupied by a garrison of 100000 heavily
armed troops. Josephus adds that the whole
people bore tho name Of Hyksos. that Is

OF the foreigners OF whom the one neshbor
killed the other ncighbor." For a long time the
opinion was prevalent that the thirteenth
dynasty marked the exact epoch OF the in
vasion OF the foreigner. whence it seems
to follow that tho latter must have already
gained a firm footing on the eastern edge Of
lower Egypt. Irreconcilable with this hypo-
thesis is the fact that several Theban kings Of
the thirteenth dynasty enjoyed in the Delta
sufficient leisure and quiet for the erection of
monuments whose remains have been pre-
served to the present time. and whose size and
style are far from indicating haste in the proc
ess OF construction. Among these mem orias
may DO mentioned the remarkable stones and
statues at Tanis tZoanl in the neighborhood
of the territory on which toward the end of the
thirteenth dynasty tho Hyksos kings pitched
their camps. From other statues and records
found above the second cataract. it Is clear
that the power OF tho rulers Of the thirteenth
dynasty was no more reduced In tho
south than it was in the north OF
the empire. Nevertheless. in tho later reigns
OF tho thirteenth dynasty. which was m en-
ceptionally long line. there were. according to
Manetho. opposition Pharaohs who refused to
recognize tho supremacy Of Thebes and who
placed their royal abode ut XoTs in the Delta
furnishes the key to the comparative silence
of temporary monuments. and 1t enables US to
understand the success OF an invasion which
brought into Egypt n raco OF foreign con-
querors. 1t must be remembered. also. that
the Milo country had long been obliged to
shield itself against encroachments from
Asiatic peoples. and that the eastern border
land had frequently been descibed as To
MaZor-that Is, "the fortified land"-in
which may be recognized the original
form Of the Hebrew name for Egypt-Mazor
or Mizraim. Everywhere in this part Of
the Delta were towns and fortresses whose
names point to Semitic colonists. Tho Egyp-
tians in process OF time enriched even their
theology with diyinities Of foreign origin. Mt
the head OF which stood the half Egyptian and
half Semitic god Set. or Sutckh. who was uni
versally considered as the representative and
king Of the foreign deities in the land of
Major. Moreover. tho commercial interests
connecting the regions of the Milo and Eu-
pirates introduced into Egypt foreign en-
pressions for certain animals as we'll as prod
ucts OF industry and products Of the soil Ex-
anples are the words for hawk for chariot. for
camel. and for particular kind OF bull.
