Throne of Solomon.

The following account of remarkable piecelof
mechanism is taken from Persian manuscript,
called, "The History of Jerusalem. - 1t purports
to be description of the throne of King Soloman,
and if the details are correctly given, it undoubt.
edly surpasses any specimen of mechanism pro-
duced in modern times, Notwithstanding the won
derful inventions which have taken place in every
branch of science: 80
'The sides of it were of pure gold, the feetof
emerald and rubies, intermixed with pearls, each
of which were as big as an ostrich egg. The throne
had seven steps; on each side were delineated orr
chards full Of trees, the branches of which were
composed of precious stones, representing fruit
ripe and unripe; ON the tops Of the trees were to
be seen figures of beautiful plumaged birds, par
ticularly the peacock, the etaub, and the kurges,
All these birds were followed within artifcially.
SO as to occasionally to utter thousand melodious
notes. such as the ear of mortals never heard. On
the first were delneated vine branches, having
punches of grapes, composed of various sorts OF
precious stones, fashioned in such manner as to
represent the different colors of purple, violet,
green and red so as to render the appearance of
real fruit. On the second step, on each side Of
the throne, where two lions of terrible aspect,
large as life, and formed of cast gold. Thenatu
of this remarkable throne was such, that when
Solomon placed his foot on the first step, the birds
spread forth their wings, and made futtering
noise in the air. On his touching the second
step, the two lions expanded their claws. On his
reaching the third step, the whole assembly of
demons and fairies and men repeated the praises
g 81, bo cd Of h fot,r hsfn
voices were heard addressing him in the following
manner,--"Son of David, be thankful for the
blessings the Almighty has bestowed upon you."
The same was repeated on reaching the fifth step.
On his touching the sixth, all the children of Is
rael Joined them; and on his arrival at the seventh,
all the throne, birds and animals became in mo-
ton, and ceased not until he had placed himself
in the royal seat, when the birds, lions, and other
animals, by secret spings, discharged shower OF
the most precious perfumes on Solomon; after
which, two of the kurgeses descended and placed
the golden crown upon his head. Before the
throne was column of FURNISHED gold, on the top
of which was golden dove, which held in his
beak volume bound in silver. In this book were
written the Psalms of David; and the dove having
presented the book to the king, he read aloud
portion of it to the children of Israel 1t is furtb-
er related, that on the approach of wicked persons
to the throne, the lions were wont to set up ter.
rible roaring and to lash their taiiswith vioencei
the birds also began to bristle up their feathersj
and the assembly also of demons and genii to
utter horrid cries. SO that for fear of them no per-
son dared be guilty of falsehood, but confessed
their crimes. Such was the throne of Solomon,
the son of David"
