This dynasty, according to the chronology of Manetho, extended from B. C. 1366 to B. C. 113; and Troy was taken, ac cording to Eratosthenes, Dionysius Argivus, P. Cato, Dionysius Halicar., Diod. Sic., Tatian and Eusebius, B.

Of these fifteen historians, it will be scon that all place the Trojan war within the period covered by this dynasty. TWENTY FOURTH DYNASTY, 46. Bocchoris [Bocchoris, Diod.

The procession, returning to the public square, having passed the place where Eaton and Davenport had their dwellings together, on opposite sides of the street, entered the spacious and beautiful temple which covers the remains of the fathers, and is occupied by the same church which the fathers organized. There, religious exercises, appropriate to the occasion, were performed by ministers of the Congregational, Episcopal, and Methodist churches, and the learned discourse before us *One of the hymns prepared for the occasion is so happy in the conception and execution, that we give it a place here. was delivered. And it is not unworthy to be put upon record, that the remainder of the day passed off in perfect quietness, without the "discomfort" and noise of a public dinner, in a population of perhaps fourteen thousand souls, to all of whom it was a holiday. The idea has been studiously inculcated, that of all the fanatical settlers of New England, those who came to Connecticut were the most fanatical; and that of all the settlements of Connecticut, the old New Haven colony was the most insane with all sorts of enthusiasm and bigotry. This calumny does not seem to be of modern origin. We believe it to be considerably older than the revolution. It is an old tradition in Massachusetts, that when the country was planted, if any of the comers were too good to be endured, they were sent to Connecticut; if any were too bad, they were sent to Rhode Island; and such only as were of what we should now call the juste milieu sort were retained in the Bay colony. The origin of such representations is probably, in part, the fact, that as Boston early became a commercial town, and was from 1691 the seat of a royal governor and his court, the primitive Puritan manners became obsolete there earlier than in Connecticut; and strangers visiting Boston, and inquiring after Blue Laws and other things of that kind, the supposed originals of English caricatures, were referred of course to Connecticut. So in Connecticut, after the charter had been obtained, and the simple theocratic government, that originated in a religious covenant, had become extinct, it was natural to refer to the times of the old New Haven colony as the times when Puritan regulation was carried to the highest pitch. The Episcopalian missionaries too, of the Society for Propagating the Gospel, early made a vigorous assault upon Connecticut; and besides the natural influence of their sectarian and political prejudices, it was for their interest, and Theirs was the godlike part- So doth the eaglet, nursed Till, gained its parent's form, |
