was recently made in the neighbourhood of Jerusalem,
which, though not of considerable value in itself, has
given rise to very much discussion. A cheat having been
dug out from the ground, the opinion was expressed on
several aides that it was the Ark containing Moses's
Tables of the Low. The mistake vu soon discovered, u
the Ark was made of wood. overlaid with gold, whilst the
chest in question was of iron. The Governor of Jerusalem

W the Holy City as to the locality where toe veritable Ark
is likely to be buriel, and he has reported the conclusions
arrived at to the Sublime Porte in Constantinople.—
