A WORD ON ANGLO-ISRAELISM.

(To the Editor.)

SIR,—If you will allow mo space I &*$ like to say a few words nn the " Identitiv business. A few of the British naiioo r : have Jewish V)lood in their veins, but it not derived by studying the ancient m, phets. It is quite impossible that ti '■' ancient Briton could have been an I«raeV» for at the time the ten tribes Were car J into captivity, Britain wan inhabited [? about 45 wild tribes. About the «,»: time the Gauls invaded Italy, their relk" was Druidical, said by them to f been derived from the inhabitant* , Britain. The countless hordes of &MI Vandals, Alans, and Huns that aftorvX1 overran Europe,were in existance, arid w>r wild and savage, at the time the Je\y s JZj carried captive, so that it is an. historical impossibility^ that the foundation of tK ■ British Empire could have had any eoitrnV tion whatever with the ten tribes of Is-. t' Now, as to prophecy. We must not W one disjointed verse without going iu^ \ff whole context. And we must also consiS! that these prophets had a very limS knowledge of the earth's surface, so that i interpreting their prophecies, we must lent to what really did take place in tho? countries that they knew something about I maintain that the return of the Je . under the proclamations of Cyhig arfl A rtaxerxes, completed all the prophecy n that subject. Mothing can bu plafael (ha! the prophecy that the ehildieu of I 3rap , and the children of Judah should be recon ciled together, and that-the retanaßt of them should return, and that they ehonH be one nation atid have oue king, A '? the very prophet who furtells This n l that " the days are at hand, and the efe of every vision."

If we were to take into consideration all the curses heaped on the Israelites by their men of God, we would not wonder very much as to what had h come of most of the ten tribe?" Christ, as far as the Old Testament is con ccined, was the fulfilment of all prophecy And when we come to the year one, we can quietly close our Looks of the prophets for we have come to the end of their visions to the time vhen men ran to and fro, wh>n knowledge hugan to be increased. If we want to rind out what became.-of the great mass of the Jewish nation :m^ had better hunt for their bones in that coun. try, where "he that was far off, should die of .the pestilence, and he that was near should fall by the sword, and he that re mained and was besieged should die by the famine."

As for the belief of cur identity with ihe Jews being considered a mania, every man of course is entitled to his own opinion But it is scarcely a sane action for a man to paste three or four leaves of Ezekiel around his hf-ad, and then try and butt through the brick wall of historical fact.—l am, &c Ancient Bunas!:

P.S.—The ten tribes were carried captive 721, B.C. At that time the Scjthians We roaming over the steppes of Asia, in count less hordes. The Jews were carried away as slaves, and in fulfilment of prophecy; no doubt many of them were eunuchs in the palaces of Babylon.

"ONLY ONE TRUTH."

(To the Editor),

Sir, —Smart man is J. Lowndes, Inspector of Fa»nell; depth of wit equal to a spoon beat flat. Half his letter (inyours of last evening) is simply an expose of said, J, Lowndes. You could not allow the space to answer his rhapsody, but worse,, Ms hearing is so bad he never heard me speak the truth, A capital dose for the Pat. nellites to swallow. But allow me to answer his one question of "Whatl did when Inspector!' My answer is, that!l gave services to the value of £100 thefinst year I was in office, and was the principal means of raising another £500 to j'tbe benefit of Parnell. Joseph's smartness iv perverting truth will not gainsay that fact; it lays deep in the vouchers. Again, Jtt me remiud Mr Joseph of " What 1 did not," i.e., I did not contest actions againtt rate payers, and let the borough into the damages and costs. Nor did I blow my tiumpet to stomp notorious contempt on the borough by repotting to all the world that I .had dealt, as Inspector, with neatly 400 cases ; of nuisances, and got told i was too fast. Ml Joseph asks also if he has neglected Ma duty. Now, if Mr Lowndes is so certain^f haviDg done his duty, why did he not claim the £10 deposited on that very question? Smart man not to meddle with that. Tie remainder of his letter is quite in keeping with the first part; it would be puerile, were the cloven foot properly hid. Sir, Mr Joseph Lowndes has frequently challenged my antecedent doings. It I am not mis informed, his own antecedent doings would be most valuable to Parnell, perhaps eclipse 1 J.B.S.'s£6oo.—Yours, &c, :•• !

CITY LEVELS AND COMPENSATION.

The decision of his Honor the Chief Justice :in the case Williams v. the Wellington Corporation throws a new light upon the liabilities aud immunities of municipal bodies. The plaintiff claimed compensation for damage done to his property in Upper Willis-street by the Corporation causing the level of the thoroughfare to be lowered. The Compensation Court held tbat he was en titled to compensation, and made award, Again»t this the Corporation appealed, and on Saturday the Chief Justice gave judg ment in favour of such appeal. Bis Honor's deliverance, divested of redundancy, appears to be to this effect :—The road aud path in question jhad admittedly been formedj graded, and metalled for many years, and occupiers of sections facing such thorough fare eicctcd dwellings, laying tbe founda tions level with the road, The Corporation, in the course of city improvements^ ana subsequent to the erection of such buildings, considered it necessary to lower the level of ' the street, leaving the buildings perched in iueouTcnieuent positions. The owners of ! such buildings have no claim to column -1 sation because the street was formed before the Municipal Corporations Act regulating the grading of streets came iuto effect, and no map was made showing the road to have been previously so constructed, and the level has not been iixed under the section of tbe Act which provides that "until such map is made the Council may at anytipuM the level of any street not theretofore ;con structed." It was admitted that the level of Willis-street had not been fixed ..under section 192, and no map had been prepared under section 190 ofjthe Act. Again,inthe opiuiou of the Chief Justice, it was the m tontiou of the Legislature that "levelswere not to be deemed to be fixed until the Council had deliberately considered »nd decided upon them as permanent levels, ; the inference being that, in the opinion of his Honor, this was not done until the order was made by the Council for the cutting down of the street, which formed the subject of the claim, for compensation. Agamihta Honor gave opinion that the true view B that an award is capable of being enforced on «i judgment of the Supreme Court, uuless the respondent contests it. But in case of such award being contested, the Supreme Court may deal with a summary application to take the award oil: the iileaud stay execution. In fact, that the award is iiual only as to amount, and does not de termine title, aud is but au interlocutory judgment, aud tbat it is iucumbent ou 'lira claimant to move to get it made final, and to call upon the respondent to show why execu tion should not issue. The alternative being that the respondent may, if he chooses, move tor execution being stayed. *Wp actions against Corporations for compen sation, in respect of street alterations, wm not avail unless incases where the permanent levels of the (streets have been lixed, ana oven where an award for certain speeiuea compensation is gained it is but one step m a tedious process towards obtaining m" actual money.—N.
