In one of the palaces were found numer- ous engraved tablets, which, on examinaUon proved to be connected books; but while some of them were in the Assyrian tongue, and could be readUy deciphered, others were m an utterly unknown tongue. But before long there was another discov- ery of grammars and dictionaries, which Showed this language to be the ancient sa- bred language, that of the people of Accad or Chald^, known only to the priests, and nsed by them in their religions services, as the Latin tongue U now used in Romwi Catholic services. By means of the grammars and dictionar- ies, thousands of years after every other trace of the language has passed away, we can read it, and know what the religions knowledge of those early nations was. It was, in the earliest times, chiefly a be- lief in demons who could inflict injur- ies -and do harm to men at their pleasure, and it was in many respects a religion of fear and terror but they also had faith in two beings who were above all,â€" Na and Ea â€"the latter of whom, especially, they re- garded as an all-powerful help and refuge, since he knew the spells which would break the power of the demons. There are some very beautiful prayers and meditations in this collection, that show a strong religious feeling one called " The complaints of the repentant heart," is as follows " Oh, my God, my transgressions are very great, very great my sins. I transgress, and know it not. I sin, and know it not. I feed on transgressions, and kuow it not. I wan- der on wrong paths, and know it not. The Lord, in the wrath of His heart, has over- whelmed me with confusion. "Hie on the ground, and no man reaches a hand to me. I am silent, and in tears, and none takes me by the hand. I cry out, and there is none to hear me. I am exhausted, oppressed and none releases me. How long, my goddess? " Lord, thou wilt not repulse thy servant. In the midst of the stormy waters, come to my assistance, take me by the hand I I commit sins â€" turn them into blessedness 1 comm t transgressions â€" let the wind sweep them away 1 My blasphemies are very many â€" rend them like a garment 1 " God who knowest the unknown, my sins are seven times seven â€" forgive my sins " The cry of the sinner for pardon and in- ward peace is the same in all ages. There is scarcely a thought in the fervent prayer of the devout worshipper of Na and Ea for which a parallel cannot be found in the peni- tential psalms. How much was revealed to these men in their groping after truth Did they find, after their passionate outbursts of confession and repentance, the prace for which they besough u the only deities they knew God alone, ' who knowest the unknown," can answer these questions.

They would all vote for Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, for they know ic is a boon to their sex.
