[The whole of Mr. Sams's collection of Egyptian antiquities were bought

by Joseph Mayer, Esq, F.S.A., of Liverpool, about two years ago, to add

to his previous assemblage of similar monuments, and are placed by him,

with a very valuable collection of mediæval antiquities, in the

Egyptian Museum, 8. Colquitt Street, Liverpool. The small charge of

sixpence for each visit opens the entire collection to the public; but

it is a lamentable fact, that the curiosity or patriotism of the

inhabitants does not cover Mr. Mayer's expenses by a large annual

amount.]

_"Could we with ink,"_ &c. (Vol. iii., pp. 127. 180. 257. 422.).--Have not

those correspondents who have answered this Query overlooked the concluding

verse of the gospel according to St. John, of which it appears to me that

the lines in question are an amplification without improvement? Mahomet, it

is well known, imitated many parts of the Bible in the Koran.
