A FORGOTTEN Citv.

The late Lieut.. GARNER discovered
last year in Cambodia the ruins of a
great ancient city, Angcor. These ruins
are of extraordinary magni6cence, both
in point of extent and of architectural
splendor. The sides of the principal
temple measure no less than two miles
and quarter in circumference, and the
remains of endless roads buried in the
forest and jungle, contain monument
after monument, "each, if possible.
more astonishing than the preceding"
The architecture and sculpture of this
forgotten city exhibit very advanced
knowledge of the arts, and the great
temple is described as the masterpiece
of some unknown Michael Angelo. Apg-
cor must have been one of the greatest
cities on the globe, and yet of its his

known of its past save that a Chinese |
