ISRAEL must be "a nation and a company of nations " (Gen. xxxv. 11). Our wish in bringing this point out is, to show that Israel must be a nation with colonies, and that these colonies would form a company of nations, governing themselves, controlling their own local affairs-not in the sense of Manasseh, who must have declared her entire separation and independence of Israel-but as having separate legislative parliaments, and yet having a bond of connection, an affinity that would bind. them over to the " a nation," or parent country, and

THE IDENTITY shows that this is just the connection that our great colonies maintain with England. Australia has a Parliament of her own, the same as, is enjoyed by our own kinsmen of Canada; our great empire of India has, a separate legislative Government; and the same is found to exist in New Zealand;-yet they all have alliance with the mother country, who has power to exercise sufficient' parental control as to prevent these dear children running in excesses or adopting changes that would violate the Constitution; so that they literally assume the dignity of being "a company of nations," with power to regulate their own affairs. We meekly suggest to them the wisdom of managing their own business without permitting any undue interference on the part of the Canaanites, and think it the more needful to offer it from what we have observed has befallen Manasseh.

We would also entreat our great colonies to think out for themselves the many and invaluable lessons that our Identity with Israel gives to them.
