about 5000 excellent troops in san

LONDON, Jan. 1S.-A dispatch from
Rio Janeiro dated yesterday states that
the insurgents nave again occupied
Moncangue Island, north Of Nictheroy
Their possession of the island is, how
ever, of little use to them, owing to the
fact that the position is commanded by
the government forces, with five guns
on Arnacao point, directly opposite the
island.
Further official dispatches received at
Rio Jan GIRO announce that the defend
ers of Badge, in Rio Grsnde de Sui had
succeeded in driving off the insurgents,
who had long besieged the town, and
that the place has suffered considerable
damage.
These dispatches confirm the reports
that the insurgents committed many
atrocities upon the people living out.

What is perhaps still moro impor
tant is that, while the Israelitcs have
left records OF invasions by Mcsopota-
Wlans. Moahitcs. Canaanitcs. Midianites
and Philistincs. they do not mention
any invasion by the Egyptians, and the
conclusion is that the Israclites were

reign, which began not earlier than

strike inland till he was some distance
to the north OF the lsraclites but it is
inconccivablc that he should not have
secured his long line of communications
by establishing posts SO far inland that
they must have been brought into con-
tact with the Hebrews if the latter had
ut that time been settled i'll their own
