A CHANCE FOR INVENTORS.

Explication du Zodiaque de Denderah, des Pyramides, et de Genese. Par

le Capitaine au longcours Justin Roblin.[241] Caen, 1861. 8vo.

Capt. Roblin, having discovered the sites of gold and diamond mines by help

of the zodiac of Denderah, offered half to the shareholders of a company

which he proposed to form. One of our journals, by help of the zodiac of

Esne, offered, at five francs a head, to tell the shareholders the exact

amount of gold and diamonds which each would get, and to make up the amount

predicted to those who got less. There are moods of the market in England

in which this company could have been formed: so we must not laugh at our

neighbors.
