The ancient Egyptians were most indus trious with the i • is. la many of the hiero glyphics the scribe is represented at work making notes of the proceedings. In wars he is seen taking down the number of pris oners aad other details. Thotb, the god of letters, is the celestial scribe, and is often figured as writing the names and ac tions of those in Urn next world, Among the many documents which have been pre served cf this literary race is one contain ing a history of a war carried on by lUm es-s 11., and which is supposed by arch aologists to have been written at the time. Aa the author is described as a "royal scribe" he in r.i probability accompanied the ■nay, and describes what he saw on the Bpot. Tiicre is no hint as to the exist ence of "rules'," etill less of "revised mite," in relation to correspondents at that date. Koyal Bcribe3 no doubt did their work on curtaiu conditions, and the result, if we may judge by this particular papyrus, is certainly such that it is tot likely to prejudice anyone in favor of dictation be ing u-.ed toward those who make records of liiatory. From this point of view the accient document possesses an interest at the i.-iomeut, and the horse-guards and the public will be none the worsj for hearing what results " when those who make the bst'lts are ti.e only ones to write." Til 2 royal tcribe in this case was named " Pi Dtrat ;' and the war wa3 one against the " K>iita, " orCneta, the Hittite?, v.m..-c alphabet and language has Leen a subject Of 10 mnoh inter, bt Mji'.lij.; i»ir! .' iln.lotl lately. The field of action was at Kadeah, od tLe Orcntta. Ramescshad led his army from Egypt, and the " vile chief of Cneta, with many allies accompanying him, lay ambushed f& northwest." The Hittites must have formed a large army, for they had drawn troops frora the whole country, a; far as Xahanua, or Mesopotamia. The Egyptian army was in brigades, and the names of them are stated. There was the brigade of Ammon, the brigades of Pfcah and Set — all names of gods in the Egyptian I'antheon. The brigade of Ka-Harmachis was in the center, "and feared not to light," so they marched right into the am buah on the northwest, which the Chetas had planned. The brigade was beaten back by the enemy — "loot and horse of King Rimeses gave way before them." Kimeses was equal to the occasion. Mounted on his "great horse," called 'Victory in Thebes," ho ruuhed to the front, "he pierced the line of the foe, the vile Cheta ; he was all alone, no other with l.itn. Wbcß he advanced to survey behind him lio found there encircled him 2,500 chariots. Stopping his way out, every champion of the vile Cheta." There were three men in each chariot, and U» mebes had no chief, lo marshal, no captain of the archers ; fled were his troops and norse : he was left alone to fi^ht the foe. He had no fear ; he put confidence in his sol Ammoti, whom he reminds of all the temples and obelisks he had erected to him — of all the sacrifices he bad offered — aid tixing his trust in this deity, with h.s " strong sword of Ha," he went in for the vile Khita, and thero follows a splendid cle-cr piion of his deeds, which leaves the most fertile of our coiners of words among specials of the day far behind. Pcntaur writes v-ith au unhesitating i<en, or else the stall' officer appointed by X tmeses to supprvifce the telegrams must have seen to it. King Kameaes prevailed, of cour»e, over the va;t host opposed to him. Not one escaped. The absence of any one except his pquire Menna, to assißt Kamcses, is repeatedly insisted on. He did it ail himieH ; he faced the- ."iOO with his sword of nii^ht, and the exact number of killed id itated as 100,000 by this veracious cor respondent. Tiiv K't.ita were subdued and their chief made his homage, and the story winds up with Eome big words about the greatness and glory of Uameses. This campaign took place, according to 1.-»psius, some tuna between llibS and 1322 B. (_'., aud the whole account, aa written by Pen taur, will bo found in tha " Kecords of the Past," Vol. IL, p. 75. It Deed scarcely be pointed out that a story like this throws a doubt about all events which are related in ancient docu ments counected with the history of Kgypt, tj which it may ba hinted that it also leads to scepticism in regard to most his tory. It may be said such stuff could not have been written in our time. Well, per haps not ; yet Arabi has had his doings re corded in tha present war, and, according to his scribes, ho baa sunk our ironclad?, killed great numbers of our soldiers and Ititora, and has our Admiral at this mo ment safe as a piHoner in Cairo, In writing history, the modern K^yptian here bears a very strong resemblance to the ancient one. It is a very simple cjte so far as the moral i; concerned. It is human nature, like lUmeses aud Arabi, to desire greatness and glory, and that desire will have a tendency to manifest itself wherever it can manage to do to. . Although we are not likely to have such exaggerations as above quoted sent home to m, still there is always the power of telling a story in more ways than one, and as we at home only wish for the truth, the less our correspondents are tam pered with the batter. The new rules and revised rules will undoubtedly have the ten dency to make " Pentaurs " of them, and more or lesß to render doubtful the import ant parts r,f our own history, —[London Daily News. "The walls of the oil tngine-houaa at Harper's l'Vrry, where John Brown made his last stand with a dczen men against 7,000," Bays a correspondent, " now fur nishes an artistic background to a huj{e placard Betting forth the virtue's of some body's liver pa*. The iaecription on the frort of the building, which tells the story of Brown's crusade cannot be read at any distance. The advertisement cf the liver pad is in letters as long as a Springtield musket. The grass grows rank in front of the historic spot, as though few pilgrim feet visited it. A clump of tall rag-weed stands in the opon doorway where young Watson Brown and Ins bruther were shot down. The roof has g">ne, the windows have disappeared, aul there is an air of neglect and gradual decay about the Bpot that accords well with the stagnation of the town.' 1 SOMETHING RICH AND POINTED.
