BY JULES LECOMTE-DENOry, A CONTEMPORARVFRENCH ARTIST. Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, This isthe finger of God: and Pharaohs heart 7ias harden-ed.—Ex., 8, 19. AFTER the third and fourth plagues therecould no longer be any doubt as to thepower of Moses, and vcrj little doubt as toliis divine authority.

In the plague offlies, Moses for the first time drew a dividing line:the flies did not come into the houses of the Israel-ites; they pestered only the Egyptians. Strangely indeed must Pliaraoh liave felt his posi-tion.
