THE Sacred Books of Hermes, says Mrs. Child in her admirable compendium, containing the laws, science, and theology of Egypt, were declared by the priests to have been composed during the reign of the Gods, preceding that of their first king, Menes.

There was a little spread on the night of his raising, and, as is the custom, the candidate was asked to give his impressions of the Order.
