Among the games played with w.cards, piquet was of great antiquity and was about the middle of the Fifteenth-Century spoken of by a writer as "the Royal and delight- 1ful gome of piquet." Later on, it had been alluded to by Addison, Pope, and Dickens. Count de Gebellin had found in the ol Italian tarocchi cards the vestiges 2of the learning of the ancient
Egyptians,
7
The Chinesa claimed that cards
0 for the purpose of gaming wora 12 invented in their country by the 0 Emperor Sonon-ho about the year 18 1102. The Tamils of Southern India and Ceylon were also credited
4 with having had playing cards at a 1 vary early period."
6 The art of card-making bad 18 attained a great height about the middle of the Fifteenth Century in 76 Vonice. In our own country an Act was passed in 1463 prohibiting the importation of playing-cards w.into England, in consequence of the 7 importation of foreign manufactured 2goods interfering with the home
