warted to Babylon dariug the different
ceptivities was 4,600. It is trite that
there is a difference, in the at/count
. ghee in lihate where it is said that
Nebuchadnezzar carlied away ‘.10,000
captives." possibly in one cue the
thq women and chilticeu were counted
and uot in the other, which would ac-
count fur the difforenee; but taking the
largest nainber as an ea/cue/tie etate•
matt of the Jewish portion of the cap-
tivity it (teen not represent a fourth
part of the number who returned, We
know besides that multitudes of J moire -
/named in Babylotossone of them bating
like Dauiel, tu peitiens of truetool
power, while others preferred the ease
and opulence of their now homes to
the toil and difficulty that w uld await
them should they retura to Judeh. If,
therefore, the entire panther of Jewish
captives was at the shout not snore
Blau 10,000, anti 50,000 reit timed from
exdo,Where did the 40,009 come from ?
Most certainly they must have come
froea the Ieresehtisa portion of the cop-
tivity, so that three.fourthe oi thotal
who returned utast hove been of
''Israel."
Again, when the temple WM; finished
aud dedicated in the dell) year of the
reign ot Darius we are add that "the
ohildren uf Lrael, the priests and the
iaavitoe, and the rest of the ehildreu of
the captivity, kept the dedication o
this houee with joy, and offered at the
dedication of title 'loose of um an
hundred bullocks, two Inaudred rams
iteur hundred lambs ; and for a bin
offering for all Israel, twelve he goats,
according to the number of the tribes
of Ierael. And the childseu of Ierael,
which were mime again out ceptivity,
and nil such as had soperated them-
selves unto them from the filthiness of
the heathen of the laud to seek the
Lord God of I irael, del eat, and kept
the feast, of unleavened bread seven
days with joy, for the Lnra had made

the King of Aasyria, unto them, tiv

Ezra 6 c. 16, 17, 21, 22 v. Here we

known previous to the disruption under
jeroboam. -The children of Ierael"
and a sin offering for "all fermi' is of-
fered "twelve he -goats, according to
the uumber of the tribes of Ieritel."
iu no more expreseive way could the
unity of the twelve tribes be exhibited,
and in the feluess of their joy at the
dedication Of this sewed temple, the
spirit of qllvy Alla jOalOVISy is forevor
set at test, Ephraim no loeger envies
Judah, nor does Judah vex Eta aim.
About eighty years after the first
return of the exiles, another company
uumberiug about 1,600 males or about
4.000 in all went up with Ezra. These
are espeeiallf mentioned all being "of
tbo children of lsrael,"and it is instuct.
ive to note the chmunstauces which
led to their roturn. Ezra, who was
a "ready scribe in the law of Moses,"
bad prepared hie heart to seek the law
of the Lord, and to do it, and to tesaeh
in Israel statutes and judgments." He
went to Art:Names, the L'ersian *king
and procured a denree of whiell we
have a copy in Ezra 7 e. 12-26. Mid
dome deems to have had special refer.
eau to the Israelitish portion of those
still in exile. "I make a decree," he
da,VS, "that all they of the people of
Israel, nr1 of his priests and Levites
in my realm, which are tninded of their
own freewill to go up to • jerusalemoso
with thee": -Ezra 7 o, 13 v. With
this leiter or decree in his p .,ssession,
Ezra went to the petiole af Lintel; and
he declares in the 28:h verse : "I was
streugtheued as the hand of the Lord
my God was upon me, mud I gathered
togetuer out of Israel Chief men to go
with Ine." Then fellows the et/itinera-
tion of those whom lip had gathered
together, after which we are told that
they en -mapped by the river Ahava,
where they remitted till the twefth
day of the first mouth. lints spuoyal
instructive mrenuisteuees are ineideot-
.ally 1'0 NV red to. It wag found thatl
there were no lovites among thee°
who were assembled together. This
fact shows Clearly that those exiles
could not have boon je,te, for the
Levitate foemed a part of the kingdom

); entrOwehtensive,it was sent "through-
out all kingdom" and to "all the

throsejt wide open te lerael as well as

IDthe enumeration of those who a,c
et/pted this•invitatioa Special ram -tint
is made of "Israel" as forming a part
of the number. In Ezra 2 c. 2 v., we
read of "The number of the men of the
veople of Lintel," again in the 59th
verse:eve read that there were some who
"went up from Tel-tnelah, Telshassa,
Cherub, Adclan, ana homer, but they
could not show their fathers housemaid
their seed (or pedigree) whether they
were of Israel." The difficulty in their
'case may be easily uuderstood when it
18 rememberett that they and their
father's hail been in captivity for near-
ly two hundred years. Again we are
told that the "priests and the Levites,
and Some of the people,and the sinpers,
and the porters and. the -Nethiaims
dwelt in their cities, and all lereel
ita their cities ":---Ezra 2 c. 70 v.
So all Israel was reckoned by geneolo.
gies ; and boboia they were written in
the book of the kings of Israel and
Judith who were carried away to Baby-
lon for their trausgressione, Now the
first inhabitants that dwelt in their
r oseessions in their cities were the Ts.
aelites. the priests. Leviteo, and the
Nethinitns. And in Jerusalem dwelt
of the collars/1 of Jtidith, and of the
children of Benjamin, and of the child-
ren of Ephraim and Mitnassah":-1
Obron. 0 c. 1-8 c. These passages
prove beyond doubt that Israel shared
with Jit dale in the retnrn from captivity,
that they were for the most part locat-
ed in"their cities,"nrobaly those from
which thoy hail 'been so long exiled,
while 'Judah and Benjatnin with Eph-
raim and Manasseh dwelt in Jeru-
salem.
Again Ezra informs us concerning
the number who roturned with &rub -

111E PACIFIC .RAILWAY.
113W TUE OBITS PROPJSED TO BUILD IT.
From the Mail.
Mr. Meekenzie's first policy was to
bnild the RA a Government Work.
If there was any profit 10 it be' said be
would make that profit for the people.
Wheu he took hold of it the cost was
• ofileially estimated at $100,000,000.
And on that understanding he pro-
ceeded. If anything eau ba seid to be
clear in regard to hie proceedings, this
at tenet is clear, that if it was order.
tmette that the plans of 1871-8 failed,
it was unfertunato beyond measure
thet Mr. Mackeozie's plaus failed. He
hag recently hod. as—and i1r. Blake
lets endorbed his ntteranees—that lie
would have built the road irrespeetive
ef thalami, and would in effect have
%venlig the $100,000,000 from the taxue
of the people. Bat "mad" indeed as
the proposition was, its madness in
creases as we consider Ws subsequent
proueeding. It had been distinctly de.
citral that the taxes of the people
should not be increased for the pur-
pose of bnildiug the railwita.1-v,
very first act had been to add
$-00
000 to the taxatiou in view of the
Pacific railway expenditure, and part
of the proceeds of the fiat loan were
stated to be for that purpoee also. As
if this was not euough to shake
public confideuce in him, in 1875
he entered in the arrangement
Iknown as the Ca1'y/WW1) ter nig.
These terms bonuti lion to provide, .
among other things. for the building of
the Esquimalt and Nauvtimo railway
(( miles) at a omit of slay $20,000 per
mile—n, low estimate—or about $1,-
250,000; for the provitlistig0000
f.oarang
road at a cost of about ao
for the completion of the whole road
from Lake Superior to the Pacific by
1890. Sir Richard Cartwright had
hinted that if time was an element in
the bargain tho road would probably
()est $n.0,000.4300 of $160,000,000.
But Mr. Meeltenzie WAS appareutly "up
to'a anything ; paraded the Ottv-
uarvon terms Kg his otvn happy 'Bug-
tretatiouo given to My, Edgar at an
onalier time fir peeseetation to the
Crovertiruent of British Colt/labia. Bot

The 'next proposition was that of
1877, to woich we have called attention
of late. 'Mr. lMackeinzie, who had been
ao pledged to make a Covert/went work
of the railway, withdrew (rein that
poeition, anti offered the, work to (:0 1.
tractors undor a eabsiely of $10,000 and
20,00C aceee of land per mile, or, Ant

acres of land for the whole. But this,
was by no means his calculation of the
oott of the road. His adweetisment
was an lineable petition to contractors
to know how muoh they would do it
for over and obey° that sum ; and he.
was prepared to gurantee their interest
nt 4 per cent. for twenty-five years on
the eio,p over and above what be offer-
ed for whieh they might undertake the
work. If Sir Richard gfartwrieht's
Innate of the work, on a time basis,
taken, that would bare entailed it
gurantee resulting probably in a pay-
ment of ab ut .$5,000,000 per annum
as iuterest to the gentlemen who had
already within the $80,000,000 and
the $5G,000,000 Ram of land. The
mere fact that the '10,000,000 acres of
could be found by neople who had al-
ways declared, and who declare still,
that the land is manlier so plenty nor
eo good as Ivo think, may seem singu-
lar ; but really nothiug seems singular
to us now, familiar as we are with the
meutal and political habits of these
statesmen.
