has stirred up the dormant enthusiasm of the jewish population ot or london and created a deep pathetic interest in the minds of every educated christian in society by some the event is regarded with the deepest reverence as a fulfilment fulfillment of scriptural prophecy and by others as the opening of a new era in the history of the people whose patience and long suffering whose commercial industry and artistic talent have filled us with admiration great enouf enough lito to have inspired envy and malevolence amongst every besotted ignorant community in europe there be many people in london and not among t the e most ignorant either who are beg beginning 11 seriously e to examine into scriptural seri p tural prophecy P r and regard its fulfillment fulfill me t as drawing nigh in

the belief entertained through all ages of the restoration X K the inheritance of abraham to his bis descendants e ants lauts and the temple of jerusalem seg 1 nt to 0 its glory the history of the colony itself is curious during the persecutions suffered by the jews jaws tn in tp russia as many of the chosen people as were able emigrated to america and aad soon afterwards the doumanian Rou manian jews as if by a sudden inspiration resolved to quit roumania and reach the promised land to seek that peace which had bad been denied them elsewhere the chief instigator of the emigration was a certain jacob label who placed himself at the head of a committee to receive the money to be invested in the purchase of land in palestine 1 estine each subscriber scriber to receive all allotment in accordance nee with his bis deposit in this manner a sum of was collected and agents were to palestine to visit and study the different localities most eligible for the enterprise A tract of land at a short distance from the ancient city of cesarea was purchased and the domain was duly registered in the name of the president jacob cobbel but the members of the emigration on being summoned to begin their journey found themselves peremptorily refused permission to land upon turkish ground from the vessel belonging to the austrian lloyd which had brought them to the turkish port they were driven back to the bottand boa tand forced to continue their route bitout provisions exhausted and starving arrived beyrodt at Bey rout some few of their number managed to land but the rest were compelled to return to jaffa whence they escaped into the interior I 1 and contrived to reach their destination those who had already arrived before strict opposition of the entrance of the jews had been enforced had been compelled to declare themselves turkish subjects before obtaining permission to toT remain emain in the country but the majority had to remain at haifa while the vexatious formalities were being car ried out and there seemed to be no means of obtaining work at haifa the funds subscribed were soon exhausted and the emigrants reduced to the most profound destitution just at this moment jacob loebel died and the committee of which he ae was the president was waa dissolved the turkish government seized the opportunity of creating every difficulty possible in the way of the enterprise oy by gel seizing zing jacob labels property declario declaring g that it belonged to the state although babbel had bad left several children A lawsuit was instituted at constantinople A great portion r t 1 0 n of the remnant of the money I 1 still t i 1 in the hands bands of the jews was spent in deputations in to and fro and other expenses but the suit buit was wall gained land and the domain inscribed by the state in the name of the jewish banker erlanger of paris during the whole time this gis lawsuit lasted the government refused to grant permission for the construction of houses and the emigrants were consequently compelled to dwell in tents where they would have died of hunger had not some charitable people ef cf their own suasion assion come to their aid the persuasion Ser sers dewish alliance behaved most generously but the interference of baron rothschild has entirely changed the aspect of affairs on hearing he arine of the straits to which his people had been exposed he sent an agent to visit the spot with full power to relieve the wants of the sufferers imposing but one condition upon the members of the colon colony that of entire submission to the rules and regulations laid down by him for their benefit the greater number of vw colonists were at that moment in a i state of such misery and destitution that they signed without hesitation their adherence to the barons decree to each family was then allotted a monthly stipend of twelve francs per pe r lead call cauldren ildren co dren included the few who still possessed ever so small a resource refused ret used bo however wever to agree to the conditions imposed insisting on a clear understanding as to the barons ultimate but their resources soon failed and they joined with the rest in ia due submission to their masters will As the formal permission of the turkish government to build upon the ground al ready bought and paid for near cesarea was purposely delayed from day to day baron rothschild ordered a number of wooden houses bouses to be constructed in roumania Rou mama thirty of these housed househ arrived by sailing vessels but as they had been much delayed from the effect of a stormy passage they could not be transported for sometime afterwards to samaria the name given give n b by y th the e jews je ws to this colony another th er supply ly oft of the he houses bouses arrived a f few w weeks week ago go landwere and were set udby up by german workmen belonging to the colony they are all built upon a stone foundation and the cost or of each house is about 84 it was vot until about sixty of these tenements had bad been constructed that the great mistake of the choice of the material was discovered the wood of which they are built is found to harbor vermin in such tremendous quantities that in the hot weather the dwellings are uninhabitable and application has been made for the construction of the rest of the buildings in stone or iron materials for the building of a great synagogue two schools for the cultivation of hebrew language and public offices of some pre have been built of the stones scattered throughout the country from the ruins of cities which have long ago age disappeared i some of these stones are highly ornamented and have been inserted in the walls of of the houses with picturesque effect the colony being now sufficiently established to take its place with others baron first measure has been to give it a name it Is no longer tv be called samaria but eachron jacob the firt t word being remembrance in hebrew thus named
