The Carthaginians appear to have tamod the African elephant—a feat now regarded as impossible. On the other hand, Thothmes 1H encountered a herd of 130 elephants in Mesopotamia, and shows an elephant as part of his Asiatic spoils. Possibly the Assyrians may even at that early period havo obtained ele phants from India. Tho Persians used them at Arbela, and the Greeks brought them to Palestine, os Pyrrhus (unless in deed hts elephants were African) did to Italy. Bnt the range of the Asiatio elephant may have been wider in early times than it now is, for it survived with the rhi noceros in Honan down to 800 B. C. The elephant is correctly represented on the black obelisk of Shalmaneser H (860-835 B. C.) with the rhinoceros; and other Bactrlon and Indian animals, notably monkeys, oocnr on Assyrian bas-reliefs. —Scottish Review. -ALSO Repressed Brick for Finishing.
