!. JnwIsH TEMPLE DEsrR0RED.--AtAv Arlington,
the Jewish temple has been destroyed by FIRE,
with all which it contained, the heaviest part
Of the loss being the sacred books, many Of
which were OF great antiquity. The collection
of the SepAer ThGa (Book ef the Law,) was
composed of42 rolls Of parchment, and was
one Of the richest 10 the world. This book
contains 2 MS. Of the Pentateuch; and to
show the value Of copy, we are informed,
thaG II Is at Jerusalem only that the Rabbins
may devote themselves to this labor. Years
are consumed in the production of one of these
oopics tor the slightest error, the slightest era
sure, the most minute -imperfection or made
qualify IN the letters, necessitates the recon-
mencement Of the work. The letters Of the
book are counted, and are two millions ia
number. With the exception Of that at Bor-
deaux the edifice destroyed is said to have been
the finest Hebrew temple in France.--London
