the stock of information, hiiherto to be obtained only in the costly volumes of Wilkinson and

on Egypt"—Cambridge Chronicle.

" In the treatment of this subject, Dr. Hawks's admirable faculty of lucid arrangement and dis-
tinct statement has-full play j and he proceeds, too. with a calm confidence of the strength of hia
positions, that cannot fail to inspire his readers—such of them especially as have been somewhat
startled by the bold assertions of the infidel school of Egyptologists and their train of ignorao-
imitators—with a similar confidence."—Methodist Quarterly Review.
