At the last Meeting of the Society of Biblical
Archaeology, OF London, communication was re-
ceived from NJ Clermont Ganneau on an incrip-
ton in old Hebrew characters of the times of the
Kings Of judah, quite recently discovered at
Slloam-el Fokan below Jerusalem. The incsed
tablets, executed on the wall of ruined rock cut
chamber, sacellum, near the house of the Sheikh
Of the village of Sloan, bear inscriptions in the
archaic character made familiar in the renowned
MOablte stone OF Dhiban. About the fourth CEN

ly mutllated portion of this inscription; but what
remains Is efficient to indicate its high value a
photographic record The first four lines of the
tablet contain the name of Baal and from vutive
dedication to this deity, by an officer, whose name
is illegble, belonging to the period of the later
Kings OF Judah. The cave is supposed to have
been excavated and dedicated to Baal at a much
earlier period, but completed or ornamented DUR
ing later reign. A thorough examination of
both tablets with coDjectura restoration of their
inscriptions, is promised by NJ. Genneau, who ex.
presses the hope that these records will prove to
be OF no secondary Importance being the oldest
possible Hebrew inscription in existence

port of this work having been handed to Emperor
Wilhelm, at an audience granted by him to the
resident director of the society in Berlin, Rev. G.

lowing letter:
1t has gratifed me exceedingly to learn with
what zeal and prudence you have been engaged in
carrying out the views of the society you represent
BY the distribution OF the Holy Scriptures among
the soldiers of the German army, you have given
them an opportunity to strengthen themselves by
trust in God for the performance Of their duties,
and in the hour of suffering receive directly the

your efforts La view of this cannot refrain from
expressing my recognition of your valuable SER
