unimportant, nay, it is even more important than maiij of higher pretensions. To trace the corruption and degrada- tion of the pure religion of the Gospel, has always been held to be a task worthy of the highest intellect : we should not, therefore, despise the present one, which is the same in kind though different in degree. We have seen that all these legendary beings and their characters and acts are remnants of ancient religious systems, the mental offspring of deep- tliin...king sages. It is surely, then, not uninteresting to trace them to their present form and condition. Even in a his- toric point of view they are not undeserving of attention. Thus, should our theory on the subject be correct, it is of importance to observe how the tribes around the Baltic, when they made conquests in the Roman Empire, brought with them the religious ideas of their forefathers, and left traces of them, which are discernible even at the present day. Again, nothing more interests the botanist than to find the same plants, modified by local circumstances, growing in widely-distant regions.
