196. _The Island of Ægina._--Having occasion to make some inquiry about the island of Ægina, in Greece, I have been sadly perplexed by the discrepancies of the modern authorities I have had an opportunity of consulting. The principal of these relates to the site of the temple of Jupiter, or Zeus Panhellenios, which Dr. Smith's _Classical Dictionary_, and M'Culloch's and Fullerton's _Gazetteers_, place in the N.E. part of the island; Fullerton, however, saying also that Mount St. Elias lies in _the south part_, though he does not say that the temple is built on that mount. But Blaikie's _Gazetteer_ says that the temple stands on _Mount St. Elias_, which, according to Fullerton, is in the _south_. With this agrees the map in the _Topographisch-historisch Atlas von Hellas_, &c. von H. Kiepert, Berlin, 1846, which distinctly places the "Tempel von Zeus Panhellenios" in the _south_ part of the island while the temple in the _north-east_ is called "Tempel von Athena." The Atlas to Anacharsis' _Travels_ places it also in the _south_. Which of these authorities is right? or, can any of your readers tell me, from personal knowledge, in what part of the island the said Temple of Zeus Panhellenios really stands?

CURIOSUS. 198. _Tapestry Story of Justinian._--There is a series of ancient tapestries in Bamburgh Castle, Northumberland, representing certain events in the life of the emperor Justinian. One of these exhibits him in the act of making his celebrated Digest of Law, surrounded by his lawyers; in a second, he is manumitting slaves before the temple of Janus, at the time, I presume, when he proclaimed the _eternal peace_, which lasted two years; in a third, he appears crowned, on his knees, swearing, it should seem, to observe the _Lex Romana_, which is held up to him in an open book by two lictors; in the fourth, he is seen in a wild country, with a hunting spear in his hand, coming, as it were by surprise, and in great alarm, upon two hounds in the agonies of death. A dish, from which they may have taken poison, lies on the foreground; and a stream, which may possibly have been poisoned, gushes from a neighbouring rock. Figures in the background seem to be slinking away from the scene here represented. I shall be much obliged to any of your correspondents who can point out to me the ancient author in whose writings the circumstance alluded to in the last-mentioned picture is detailed. W. N. DARNELL.
