To the Editor of the "Norta-Cama Ditty News."
Sm,—The article in to-day's Paper giving an account of the discovery of the buried ruins of an ancient palace in Windsor, at one time the residence of King' Edward the Confessor, is of great anti-quar ian interest, It is also of considerable religious interest as we read thit, as part of the palace, a little chapel was found which containd two altars, one Pagan and the other Christian. According to history, King Edward himself was an ardent devotee of the Christian religion. Why he did not remove or destroy the Pagan altar 1s a mystery. Probably his courtiers and immediate predecessors were not so farticuler, and judged that until it was' quite certain which of the contending religious it was safer to follow it was just as well to keep on good terms with both. As the article states, King Redwald of the East Saxons, certainly had two altars and worshipped at each. As human nature does not change much essentially, the following verses, which point their own moral, may also be interesting and add to the variety of our correspondence.
