"We learn from a letter of Professor Fleischer that the Saxon 

 Government has purchased at Damascus a collection of Arabic 

 MSS. for 70,000 Piasters. It contains about five hundred volumes 

 on various sciences, and is to be deposited in the library of the 

 university of Leifzig. Most of the books are written in a clear and 

 legible hand, and some of them are of great age. The oldest bears 

 the date of A. H. 380, and there are several MSS. among them of 

 the fifth century. It contains a great number of historical works 

 and of Journals. Professor Fleischer is preparing a catalogue of 

 this valuable collection.
