A Mohammedan, uonstantly in the habit of
visiting the Crystal Palace, writes : —"I have frequently
been moth disgusted at the carelessness or ignorance of the
artists who designed the Alhambra Court, in permitting the
ireription of the holy same of tiod on the Boor of that
building. All Moors most cordially disapprove such a
wanton desecration of the lame which is reverenced alike
by both Christians and Mohammedans. Ido not think that
those persons who place the lamed name in such a con.
tempters position can sincerely adore Him. The Moorish
embroider, when in England, protested most strongly
against this andign.ity, wed his sentiments are coincided in
by all Ilahmamadsas in Leedom, se well as by your ohs.
