STRANGE FACT IN RELATION TO BIBLE HIS
ToRY.-It is not generally known that among
the Israelites most trades and arts have descend
cd in the Same family from time immemorial;;
That such is the fact can, however, be learned
from tho Bible ITSELF which tells US that Jubal
was the father of all who handled the harp and
organ, and that from Tubal-Cain's family came
those who work in iron and brass. The model
or pattern of any remarkable work of art was
always kept in one of these families, and passed
on from generation to generation.
After the manufacture of cloth hadsuperscded
fig leaves, the graceful and unique vesture OF
our first parents, large and important family
began tho making of various articles Of cloth.
ing. 1t was one of this family who made, by
Jacobs order, the celebrated coat Of many col.
ors for Joseph, which was partly the means OF
his gaining so great power and Importance.
