Destruction of Jerusalem.

In the extract from the lecture delivered
BY Sir Z. Bulwer Lytton, published IN yes
terday's Gazette, it is stated that "tho Iem-
ple, fortified and adorned by Solomon" was
"stormed" by the forces Of Titus. Is not
this a mistake? Was not "the Temple, for
tilted and adorned by Solomon" destroyed
by the "Chaldees" who ''burnt the house Of
God, and brake down the wall Of Jerusalem,
aud burnt all the palaces thereof" = Chr.
36c. 1872 Kings l5c. 9V. According to
grant from Cyrus, the Jews subsequently,
went "up to Jerusalem to build the house Of
the Lord" and from the first day OF the
seventh month began they to offer burnt OIL
feriugs unto the Lord. But the foundation
of the temple of the Lord was not yet land"

until 1.-The sixth year Of the reign Of Darius

Lord they (the Persiaus) burnt 1t, and broke

questioned, declared that the house "builded
many years age by King of Israel, (Solo-
mon,) had been destroyed by the Chaldees--

temple WAC not even the one 'stormed by
Titus, as it also had been displaced by lie
rod" who took away tho old foundations,
and laid others, and erected the temple upon
them, being in length hundred cubits, and
in height twenty additional cubits," this sec
