HEBREW SACRED LIrERATUaE.-Our obiiging and
attentive friend in Londen, who is Hebrew Rabbi.
and who kind enough to send us several curious
and ancient Hebrew works which, We have already
noticed in the Herald has forwarded us by the Gar
rick, couple of small pamphlets, one containing
PRAYER of Thank sgiving fer the merciful preservs
ton Of her Nest Gracious Majesty the Queen, and
her august consert his Royal Hghness Prince Al
bert from the hand OF an assassin, delivered at al
the Synagogues throughout Great Britain, an Sabbath
the 10Th day of Swan, A NJ 5000; and on Sabbaths,
Mondays and Thursdays, during the thirty days
next ensung;" and the other "a Prayer offered By
the Jewish Community for Sir Moses Mo9te6ore
Knit, whose generous heart urges him to un4 ftske
far distant journey, in aid of our afflicted and perse
cuted brethren of the house Of Israel May the Lord
protect him." $3.50.
We would in this way thank our Hebrew friend
for his kind attention and would add, that every
thing concerning Gods ancient people is near to our
heart Nav the God Of Jacob deliver Israel from
all their sorrows. rext week we hope to be able
give the Hebrew, but at present our readers must
be satisfied with the English Prayers, which fol-
low, part Of which however, We are compelled 70
omit.

dom is everla, sting and thy glory hlleth all space

their nmost thoughts, lie open before thee Though,
the snare be spread beneath their Steps, thou pre-
