I beg leave to pre- sent you a copy for the wonder and edification of your numerous military readers. The good ste displayed in its selection is eminently characteristic of the inventor. and it is to be hoped the new companies forming in this sec- tion of inia, will show their appreciation of the uniform by adopting it nem con > and with the utmost promptitude : 1.

That my in- terpretations may not seem distorted and fan- citul, 1 make the following extract, to show what, in one irstunce, has been brought to light by the researches of another : ee Protessor Moses Stuart, in reference to J. G. H. Gieppo’s Essay on the Hieroglyphic sys- tem of M. Champollion, Jr., says: “One need only read the interpretation of the names of the Hebrew alphabet successively, in order to be- lieve that, originally there was some analogy between the shape of tho respective letter and the object by whose names they are called. For example, beginning with the alphabet, we proceed thus: ox, house, hollow, hook, armor, traveling, scrip, serpent, hand, hollow-hand. ox-goad, water, fish, prop, eye, mouth, screech- locust, ear, head, tooth, cross. These make out the whole original alphabet of the Hebrews, and no one can well suppose that these names. rather than others, were given to the letters except on account of some resemblance between them and the objects which bore these names.’ ”? —Am Luceydopedia. residence is seen.
