meeting of the New York Historical
society, the Rev. DR.. Abbot, who has
been in Egypt, and principally ID Cairo,
presented a gold ring weighing about
three English soveroigns, which had
been found in the tomb of a high priest,
on the south side of the great pyramid
of Loupon. who was the Chcops of Her
odotua, and The second Pharoah Of the
fourth dynasty. 1t is believed to be
the signet Of Cheops himself. Its date
was upward of three thousand years be-
fore Christ, and the beauty of The en-
craving OF the helroglyphics could only
be seen by the means Of q microscope,
and could not now be surpassed.
