NEWS fp oF TIIE LONG -LOST
TRIBES.
he Report that- a Portion of the Ten
_
Tribes has been Found.
(From the Independent)
Prof. Saehau, who has lately returned
from the east, brings news of a discovery
that cannot fail to prove interesting to all
Bible students; In II. Kiugs, xvii. 6. we'
read that "the King of Asityria took
Samaria, and earned Israel away into
Assyria, and placed them in Halith; and -in
Habor by the River of Gozan, and in the
cities of the Mede." In the 18th chapter
and llth -verse this is repeated. Froei the
context ha both places one gathers that -
Shalmaneser carried the Israelites away;
although he .did in reality. die -during the
three years of. the siege, which was btpught.
to a • successful e-onclusion by his suc,
cesiiora Sargon, 720. Irf L Qhronicles,
y. -26., the deportation of the Israelites
is ascribed to Pul and to -Tiglath-Plineeer
aateth, probably, -names for the same
person; the predecessor of Shalmaneser. 't.
The Reubenites; the Gadites, and the half • .
tribe Of Manasseh are mentioned as those -
-wbord he deported, and Hata. is added to
the places mentioned in Kings:- *It may be
well to recall, in:passing, that Tiglath-Pil-
neser actually did wrest the trans-Jordanic
territory from thei;aliing,of,Istael. In the
apochryphal Book of Tob;-#` we find the
laraelites spoken of as dwelling the eities •
of the Medesa and a city, Rages, is men
toned, a place in the neighborhood of the
modern Teheran, south of the Caspian Seat
Shortly after, or about the time of the cap-
ture of Samaria, Sargon conducted some. •
campaignsin Babylonia and Elam, on the.
Persian Gulf, -aid from these reg,ions he
brought inhabitantsato supply the •.v.acancy
caused by the deportation of the Lsraelites.
,
Halah was a portion of the city of Rule-
veh, the capital of the country, Which had
apparently, at .the time of Sargon's acces-
sion, been somewhat depopulated by civil
strife. The eities ef the M edes were Aouth
east of the Sea of tirmia and south of the
Caspian, But where was "Habor, a river
of Gozan9' Both names appear tvdce.
Haber appears as .a tributary of
the Euphrates, and Gozair as part of Mesd-
otamia. Por a long time this was sup -
how e , the region meapt. There had, '
