4 curious work has been published at
Mannheim, Germany, entitled, g Histori-
cal Writings of the Count de Wacker-
barth." According to him, the world
has been in existence 475,OOO years.
The antiquity cfthe German nation goes
back TO 10000 years before Jesus Christ
It was then a population ofgiants, who
hurled rocks at their enemies, and even
had thunder at their command. The
valiant Teut, one of The first chiefs of
the nation, was the author of 36.525
works, Of which several are still extant
in the University ofOxford and in India.
The Teutoaians civilized the Egyptians.
Minus, king of the Assyrians, was a Ger
man Bacchus. Orpheus and Prometheus
had also the honour of belonging to the
Gcrmanick nation. In short [adJs the
journal the persons who are DESTROYS of
knowing more of the Counts Teutonick
ancestors, would do well to consult his
work, the conceptions of which are e.
ven more gigantick than this portly an
cestry feat the Count details.
