iv PREFACE

Politics as well as history had a part in the labours of our earlier
years, and in the days of William Pitt the younger, Sylvanus Urban
~ used to make his yearly boast of the staunch: loyalty of hia prin-
ciples, and of his unwearied efforts in tho support of our consti-
_ tution in church and state:—

Mersatus sdiue civilibus undis,
‘Virtutis vers onstos rigidusque satelles.

‘We are content in our older days to leave it to others to follow
with gmphic illustrations the marches of armies, and to relate with
copious fidelity the debates of senate. The institutions of our
country need not our defence, and we have no arms for tho service
of party. We have long devoted our strength and directed the
Iabours of our contributors to the field of historical and antiquarian
literature, In the course of our long servico we may boast of
having preserved some fmgments of history which would otherwise
have been lost, and of having resoued same monuments which the
hand of Time would elso have obliterated.

It is needless to describe the nature of our present work. We
desire, without Inanching into « wider field, to continue to employ
ourselves usefully in that which we have chosen. We shall con-
tinue our brief chronicle of passing events: by our obituary we
aim at preserving the accurate details not only of public but of
private and family history; and our pages will always be gratefully
‘open to letters of correspondents who have any valuable obser-
vations to communicate, or any curious information to be preserved.
In our own portion of the work our readers may be assured that
our endeavours will not be relaxed to make our periodical the
adequate representative of the antiquarian science and historical
literature of the country.

cation of the Secretary of State, who
announced the intelligence, “ was nei-

ther tremulous in its hand-writing nor
yet desponding in its tor Its onl}
peculiarity was the omission to marl
the hour and minute of his writing,
“as he was accustomed to do with
scrupulous exactness.”

Rodney's achievement of the great
naval mancuvre of breaking the line
is thus related :—

Tt was at seven in the morning of the
19th April that the battle began. There
was so little wind that the six hindmost
sail of Hood's division were becalmed and
unable to come up until almost the end of
the conflict ; thus, allowing for three of the
French disabled, the number of the ships
engaging was exactly equal on each side.
Rodney, on this memorable day, was the
first, not indeed to invent or to devise, but

ame of breaking the line.
the Formidable, led the
way, nobly supported by the Namur, the
Duke, and the Canada, After taking and
returning the fire of one half of the French
force, under one general blaze and peal of
thunder slong both lines, the Formidable
broke through that of the enemy. ‘In
the act of doing #0,” thus continues an
eye-witness of the scene, ‘* we passed within
shot of the Glorieux of seventy-four
guns, which was 40 roughly handled that
the was shorn of all her masts, bowsprit,
and ensign-staff, but with the flag nailed
to the stump of one of her masts, and
breathing defiance as it were in her Inst
moments. Thus become a motionless bulk,
she presented a spectacle which struck our
admiral’s fancy as not unlike the remains
of a fallen hero ; for, being an indefatiga-
ble reader of Homer, he exclaimed, ‘ that
now was to be the contest for the body of
Patroclus,’ In that contest a most
portant advantage wan already gained, For
the enemy's fleet, being now, as it were,
cut ssunder, fell into confusion, and could
not again be combined. The French, how-
ever, still fought on with their usual high
spirit and intrepidity ; nor did the firing
cease till sunset, nearly eleven hours from
its first commencement. It was stated to
Rodney by persons who had been ap-
pointed to watch, that there never was
feven minutes’ respite during the whole
engagement, “which I believe,” adda
Rodney, ‘‘ was the severest ever fought at
sea.” "At the close of the day the Englis
had taken five large ships and sunk another,”
besides two more which Sir Samuel Hood
afterwards captured in their retreat,
‘Thronged as were the French vessels with
troops, the slaughter on board them was

immense. It was computed, perhaps with
some exaggeration, that in the two actions
of the 9th and 12th together, they had
3,000 slain, and twice as many wounded;
while the loss of the English, in all kinds,
did not much exceed 900.

In none of the French ships was the
Joss of men more severe, or the resistance
braver, than in the Ville de Paris, where
De Grasse himself commanded. That great
ship, the pride of the French nary, and
conspicuous far and near as overtopping all

ts size, seemed, as Rodney might
atid, like one of Homer's heroes in
ranks of war. De Grasse con-
tinued to fight long after the fortune of the
battle was decided. It was only when the
Barfleur, coming up at last, poured in a
fresh broadside, and when, as is alleged,
there were but three men left alive and
unhurt on the upper deck—De Grasse
himself one of the three—that the

high, indeed, was the renown of that great
ship, that, when a king's messenger brought
the news of the battle to Plymouth, some
French officers who were going home by a
cartel from that port, would not believe in
this the crowning glory of the conflict, and
exclaimed, “Impossible! Not the whole
Brith fleet could take the Ville de
aris !"*

Lord Mahon’s chapter on Life and
Manners is anecdotical and extremely
amusing. He opens with the great
topic of all reviewers of the state of
society in the Inst century, the inse-
curity of our roads, even down to a
late period in the reign of George III.
“In 1775 Mr. Nuthall, the friend and

iumphant moment of her

from Bath in his carriage with his wife

and child, was stopped and fired at

near Hounslow, and died of the fright.

Tn the same year the guard of the

Norwich stage, a man of diferent
the

metal from lawyer, was killed in
Epping Forest, after he bad himself
shot de

ad three hij fhwaymen out of
seven that assailed fim. Later still
the evil was much worse. Horace Wal-
pole complains, in 1782, that after
aving lived in quiet at’ Strawberry
Hill for thirty years, be was then un-
able to stir out without a retinue of
servants armed with blunderbusses,
But the metal of Horace Walpole was
probably akin to that of the lawyer,

carefal that tae positive, practical

thing depends, we are aware, on the
manner of cotamunicating instruction
“in common things: it may elevate
boys or girls or it may reduce them

vant girls, for instance, there is often,
we fear, an artificial atmosphere and

exercise of comparison and judzment,
and deadens the faculties while it faci-
litates the performance of certain ma-
nual operations.

But it is time to bring these some-
what miscellaneous observations to ®
close. With all the disadvan! and
they are many. against which educa-
tion in England is labouring. we con-
clude as we began. by a congratula-
tion on the spirit of emulation evoked
throughout the country. and ascribe it
in large measure to the encot it
of the Government and the efforts of
its agents. It ia delightful to remark
un the numerous instances of private
contribution to this good cause. Such
an example as that afforded by the
Whitkirk Sunday Reading Room* is
most salutary. All such attempts to
render friendly service to a paruh or
a district, conceive in no overbearing
spirit. but in a manner at once Chris-
tian, kindly. and with due regard to
the love of independence, are among
the most blessed characteristics of our
day.

Farbat’s ambassadors left Algiers laden
with rich presents. They had, among
other gifts, received red bournouser of ho-
nour, embroidered with gold, such as the
Deys were wont to bestow upon mighty

chiefs. A few hours from town they were
plundered by Arabs of the tribe El Ufa,
and robbed of their red Bournouses. They
returned to Algiers, complaining to the

Duke, who just then chanced to have an
evening party, and had gambled and taken
wine. He rasbly gave the order to one of
the generals, a guest at the party, imme-
diately to start with some troops and
destroy the tribe. The general took the
order literally. For this sudden attack he
chose two corps of the army most noto-
rious for their cruelty,—the Foreign Le-
gion and the Chasseurs d'Afrique. In
the dead of night he surrounded the ep-
campment of the El Uffia, which lay in
the neighbourhood of the fortified Maison
Carrée, and slaughtered the whole popu-
ation,—old men silently awaiting the
death-blow, women crying for mercy, and
children who did not know what was to
defal them, were uomercifully slain by
the subre and the bayonet. ‘The soldiers
returned with rich booty, carrying in
triumph gory heads on the tops of their
lances and bayonets to the camp. There
they feasted and revelled until the next
night in an inhuman way; not one of
them seemed to repent their horrid deed.

‘This crime was, however, not un-
equalled in atrocity by that inhuman
act of Pellisier, who, unable to over-

come a tribe of men, women, and
children whom he was besieging ins
cavern, kindled a huge fire at the en- -
trance and roasted the whole alive!
Savary's administration was dis-
graced by another act of blood,—one
not unnatural to one of the judicial
murderers of the Duke d’Enghein.

He was much annoyed by the

sition made agsinat him by Ben Moos
Kaid of the Beni Khalil, and Messand
Kaid of the Beni Sibt. To these
two active enemies into his hands he
sent them a friendly invitation, .and
despatched with it a safe conduct both
for going and coming. On faith in
this the Arabs red to Algiers,
where Savary se gel nod them, forced
them to undergo a mock trial, and be-
headed both!

The chief cause of the ill-success of
the French as colonists in Algiers, has
been the sudden and frequent changes
of governors and of systems. But we
have not space to discuss this matter ;
and, moreover, it is ably treated in the
volume before us. that volume
we must now take leave. Its uses are
far beyond what its title implies, and,
if. “book-making” were not a term
which implied reproach rather than
Panegyricy we should be inclined to

lescribe it as the most successful ex-
ample of “ book-making” we had ever
met with. The fact is that it is not a
mere matter of ‘scissors and paste ;”
the mind has been as busily employed
as the band; and we may add, that as
the Pulszkys in “White, Red, and
Black,” produced the best work on
America which has of late years issued
from the press, so has Francis Pulazky,
in “ The Tricolor on the Atlas,” com-
piled the most satisfactory and com-

lete work on Algeria that has ever
been published.

THE RIVER FLEET.

IN connection with the subject of
the extension of the metropolis during
the last century, I propose to give some
account of the river Fleet, which, now,
Tike most of the old watercourses of
London, has almost a mythical ex-
istence. A century ago, and even
within that time, this stream was open
from dis source at Hampstead, to its

influx into the Thames at Blackfriars,
with trifling exceptions. Thirty years
ago half that length was visible, the
nearest point being at the prison in Cold-
bath Fields. A few years more, and the
same necessity which compelled its
being veiled from public view thus far,
will probably cause it to be utterly
hidden, excepting only the little brook-

the rear of Ken Wood, the residence of
Lord Mansfield ; and where the most
important of the springs which supplied
the Fleet are found. Itis rare to find
even two or threo persons in it, and is,
evidently unkuown to the majority, or
else despised for the more open attrac-
tions of the Heath. We will suppose
ourselves leaving the latter and pro-
ceeding towards Highgate: after a
distance of about alfa mile, we turn
on the left by Lord Mansfield’s, and
ing through a gate, enter a meadow
Bye footpath at its side, and find our-
ves in a charming spot, shut in on all
On the east is the crested hill of
Highgate; on the north, the woods of
Lord Mansfield’s park, the ficld sloping
gently down tothe south; and above the
trees, which compose themselves ready
for the artist's hand, appears the distant
metropolis, with its numerous spires
and tall chimneys rising above the
mass of buildings, and all o'ercrowned
the dome of Paul's cathedral.
the quiet is delicious, though so near
the busy hum of men; and, if we have
chosen a fine autumn day, when the
scason begins to wane, there is such a
lorious variety of foliage in every
shade, from the deep red-brown to the
bright yellow, and these set off here
at there by the evergreen holly, that
it is scarcely possible to behold else-
where within so small a space more
sylvan beauty.

Keeping the footpath by the side of
the meadows, close to the palings of
Lord Mansfield'’s grounds, we find a

dual descent, which conducts toa
fane having its exit on Highgate Hill.
On the left of this path is a hedge-row
of trees in great varicty, and assum-
ing most picturesque combination:
among them may be noticed two of
the holly, of considerable and unusual
size. ‘'e now come to where “a wil-
low grows aslant a brook,” and almost
immediately beneath its roots there
gurgles forth from the bank a little
streamlet ; it is one of the sourcesof the
Fleet. The scene makes a very pretty
bit—to use an artist's phrase ; but the
brook is soon lost under a small arch,
which conveys it into the inclosures to
a reservoir, the first of seven ponds,
which succecd each other at different
levels, in a southern direction. Con-
tinuing our walk, we arrive at another
brook crossing the road in the same

eel
sides.

manner, and for similar purpose.
The gap by which it issues is even
more picturesque than the other; s
largeash-tree, with most fantastic roots,
grows close over the little stream ; but
this iy not the source, which is higher up
in the fields nearer to Highgate.
Another stream issues from ine
closure of Ken Wood, and these three
rings form the most important of the
river's sources. All three are used to
fill the seven reservoirs before al-
luded to, which Noro, fcmoet for a
water supply; from w proceeds s
small stream carrying off the redundant
water, which is very trifling except in
wet seasons, running nearly Parallel
to the road leading to Kentish Town.
But there is another important
spring which belongs to the Fleet.
Tis comes from the Vale of Health on
Hampstead Heath. Passing thence on
the slope of the Heath to the south-
ile, it rune in a lite channel,
il, like the other, it is received into
reservoirs. The sides of this channel
are Tined with elms, which spose
selves in an exceedin; ncturesque
Tine, well known tothe aketelor;
but, after passing into the reservoir,
the water is conveyed by pipes from one
pond to another, and the natural course
of the stream is not visible until it
finds a much lower level, meanderi
through the fields between Havers!
Hill and Kentish Town. Here the chan-
nel is much wi

idity and
volume has at one time been Sens:
tomed to flow in it. Now there is
scarcely any water at all, except after
rains, as the reservoirs arrest nearly
all that comes from the springs. On
the banks are a number of old stunted
willows, of most grotesque and fan-
tastic forms, and, when these fields a
few years since were far from the
clink of the trowel, they often became
subjects for the artist's pencil.

‘ollowing the line of the stream, we
soon come to a bend towards Kentish
Town, and before it takes this direc-
tion it receives the sewerage of Haver-
stock Ilill, and hence, until it disap-
pears, ina filthy, fetid stream, offen
sive to the smell, and without doubt
most injurious to the health of the
inhabitants of Kentish Town who live
in the vicinity of its noxious effluvis.

It is apparent from this description
of the Court as it appeared in the time
of Henry IL. that it bears but a very
slight resemblance to the court as de-
picted in our sketch ; slight however as
the resemblance is, we gather from it
the fact that the sheriffs and their
clerks then sat to account in the Ex-
chequer at a time when the court was
‘composed of its principal members; and
that in Edward the Second’s reign the
Treasurer, Barons, Chamberlains, and
other officers satin pleno scaccario upon

broke and Hereford, and other a
nates, came to the court, and wit
threats directed the Bishop of Coven-
try and Lichfield to act no longer as
treasurer.

Upon referring to the Calendar to
the Patent and Close Rolls of the Irish
Chancery, pp. 105 and 108, we find
that in the 1stand 4th years of Richard
the Second, the Court of Exchequer
in Ireland consisted of a ‘Treasurer,
Chancellor, a chief and two puisne
Barons, two Chamberlains, two En-
rs, the Treasurer's clerk, the

ing’s Attorney of the Exchequer,
Chief Remembrancer, the Second
Remembrancer, Summonister, Trane
scriptor of the Estreata, the Chaplain,
Marshal, and Usher. These records
present to us a court composed of five
judges and twelve officers, and con=
sequently fail to convey a true picture
of it as it is given in our sketch, which
is composed of but twelve figures, exe
clusive of that at the bottom, whom I
take to be a sheriff und not a member
of the court.

Elizabeth, acting under the advice
of her Treasurer Burghley, was ex-
tremely anxious to reform the Irish
Exchequer, and to make the practice
f he court analogous to shat of

England, and for this pury
tranamitied to Ireland Ms Book of
Orders, which contains the following
entry :-—

Item, the Barons of the saide Exche-
quor & all other officers and ministers
of the same Courte, shall geve theire dilie
gent attendaunce in the same Courte i
crastino Sancti Michaelis and crastino
clausi Pasche, yerelic there to take &
receyve the proffers of all and singuler
shreves, eschetors, acencshalles or stewards
of liberties, & bayliffes accomptable in the
same Eachequor, &c. accordinge to the
auncient course of the sayde Escheqnor.

This record however fails to throw
much, if any, light upon the figures in
the sketch; and even the following,
although it goes more fully into par=
ticulars, affords but little aid towards
that object. It is remarkable however
as giving precedence to the Treasurer
before ‘the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer, and [ shall assume it to be
the fact that the ‘Treasurer was the
principal judge of the Irish Ex-

Ma, Unnan,—In a MS. in the Colle;
of Arma (marked Vincent 170, at f. 161),
Twas amused to find the following cata-
logues of Eastern potentates, following a
list of the Nine Worthies. It might be
difficult to assign the geographical localities
of every principality whose name is men-
tioned: but the most remarkable point
about the whole is the humble position in
which “The kinge of Russya” appears,
That mighty serpent, who has since de-

voured so many others of his specles, was
then regarded,—how traly may perhaps be
westioned, as among the tributaries “ un-
Ter'the greet Turkey” the latter being
tentate who made the nations tremble,
Being then in the vigour of his strength,
and not the “sickly man’ that more re-
cent politicians have esteemed him. These
catalogues were probably made from 250
to 300 years ago. Yours, e.

Fical and archeological importance to those

a matter of great doubt, and when that

likely that any remains of the temple of

them, the kernels of which were used as

entered the Scots Fusilier Guards in 1835.
He became Lieutenant and Captain in
1838 ; and Captain and Lieut.-Colonel in
1848. He was appointed a Deputy Lieu-
tenant of Ayrshire in 1845; and was re-
turned to parliament for that county at
the last general election in July 1852,
after a contest with Edward Cardwell, esq.
in which he polled 1301 votes, and Mr.
Cardwell 1200. Colonel Hunter Blair
entered the senate as a Conservative, and
a general supporter of Lord Derby's ad-
ministration.

He was unmarried; and the next heir
to the baronetcy is his only brother, Ed-
ward Hunter Blair, esq. of Dunskey, Wig-

Oct. 25. In the cavalry charge at the
dattle of Balaklava, Capt. Lewis Edward
Nolan, acting on the staff of Brigadier
Airey, Quartermaster-general.

He was the son of the late Major Nolan,
formerly of the 70th regt. and some time
‘Vice-Consul at Milan. He first entered
the military profession in the service of the
Emperor of Austria, under the auspices of
one of the Imperial Grand Dukes, who
was a friend of his father. After a short
service in Hungary, and on the Polish
frontier, he obtained a commission at home,
as Ensign in the 4th Foot, March 15, 1839,
and in the following month was transferred
to the 15th Hussars, then stationed in
‘Madras. His talents’ soon attracted the
notice of Sir Henry Pottinger, the Governor
of that Presidenéy, and he was appointed
an extra Aide-de-camp on his Excellency’s
staff, In addition to the knowledge which
be already posscased of the French, Ger-
man, Italien, and Hungarian languages,
Lieut. Nolan, during his residence in Indio,

me master of sevcral of the native
dialects, and entered actively into all the
details of the military system in the East.
Apert from these engagements he found
ielsure also for the sports of the field, and
was several times a successful competitor
in some of the most severely contested
steeple-chases on the Madras turf.
15th Hussars being ordered home,
Captain Nolan, having previously obtained
his troop, returned to Europe before the
regiment on leave, and pi ona
tour in Russia; and haviog visited some
of the most important itary posts in
that empire, as well as in other parts of
Northern Europe, he published at the close
of last year a work on the Organization,
Drill, and Manceuvres of Cavalry Corps,
which bed added very materially to bis

Osrrvary.—Capt. Nolan—Col. Upton.

thorities at the Horse Guards selected this
officer to proceed to Turkey to make ar-
rangements for the reception of ourcavalry,
and for the purchase of horses, The

mnt _of the Sultan had honourably sc-
Knowledged his aid.

‘After having produced the work we have
mentioned, it is remarkable that he should
have fallen in a cavalry charge unprece-
dented in modern times, and the victim of
a mistake! Captain Nolan was the bearer
ofa message from Lord Raglan to the com-
mandersof the cavalry, which directed them
to pursue the enemy under certain con-
ditions. It was interpreted as an absolute
order, and led to the gallant but deadly
chargein which Captain Nolan and to many
other officers were slain. The error, how-
ever, was not his, for the order was a
written one.

Captain Nolan has lefta widowed mother,
who had already lost two eons in the ser-
vice, to mourn the early fall of the last,
who was her only pride and hope. His
portrait bas been published inthe Tlius-
trated London News of Nov. 25, from a
picture painted in India.

Among our memorials of the gallant
destroyers of the fortifications of Sebas-
topol, it may be interesting to give some
record of their principal constructor, an
Englishman, who died about a year ago.
Colonel Upton, who resided for many
years at Daventry, was the surveyor of
the Dunchurch and Stratford road, and
his name frequently appears in the Parlia-
mentary reports of the Commissioners of
the Holyhead road, between the years
1818 and 1826. All'the greatest improve-
ments on the above line were made under

of expensive living unwarranted by his

of April, 1826, and, on inquiry by a com-
petent person employed, it was discovered
that he had trespassed on the funds of the
trustees to an amount exceeding 2,001.

AMERICAN ARMY DURING THE

WAR OF INDEPENDENCE.

SOME time agof we presented to
our readers an interesting memorial of
the gallant young British officer, Major
Ferguson, who fell at King's Moun-
tain. We have now the pleasure of
submitting another “ Memorial” of the
war from the other side, i.e. the Amc-
rican. It consists of a letter written
by one of the chaplains in the Ameri-
can army, and describes the course of

affairs from the “retreat” before
Quebec downwards. The lights and
shadows of the period are upon it; and
it affords (we opine) a corrective to
the exaggerations (natural enough) of
the exploits of the Americans at Que-
bec and Ticonderoga. We have fur-
nished annotations throughout ; and it
only remains to add that the letter was
addressed to the celebrated author of

ated,” the Rev.
Joseph Bellamy, DD. the friend and
compeer of Edwards. It was disco-
vered by the writer of these lines
among the Bellamy ASS. when on a

war in the insurrect
fanaticism of Amosi
in the cause of their god Amun, whom
they endeavoured to make supreme
over all the other gods in Egypt. The
sun-idolatry caused a similar struggle.
‘The dise-worshippers were perfectly
satisfied thut they were the truly or-
thodox, and they particularly objected
to the practice, in use first at Helic
pal, of worshipping the setting sun,
hey were fanatical sectaries, and de-
clared that it was the rising sun alone
that should be an object of worship.
‘The learned author, when dealing with
this matter, remarks that the doctrine
of this new worship regarding the king,
whose authority was acknowledged by
the worshippers, was strictly Egyptian,
though modified. He was looked upon
as the undoubted descendent of the
sun, deriving authority, virtue, and
power from the solar disc. “This was
significantly shown forth by the raye
which projected life into his mouth,
and that, clasping his heart, infused
into it courage, and wisdom, and justice.
‘The king and bi ly were the only
media of communication between the
sun, the source of all blessings, and
the people. Each individual prince in
the court of Pharoah raised his private
altar in the ‘Temple of the Sun, and
heaped upon it meats and drinks, after
the fashion of Egypt; but it was the
king alone that offered them to the
sun, or that performed any other act
of worship whatever.” On the other
hand, we are told that the king, queen,
and rors family were the only media
through which blessings could be im-
parted to the people. Life, health,
strength, justice, honours, wealth, could
only proceed to them through the
hands of the priest-king. Mr. Osburn
reads a proof of this on one of the
monuments, on which is a device re-
presenting “ Amenophis with his wife
and children, standing in a gallery ex-
ternal to their palace, and all of them
engaged in flinging down to their de-
lighted subjects and worshippers below
collars of distinction, vases, rings of
money, symbols of life, and other much-
coveted gifts. These gifts the disc of
the sun, which’ is represented above,

is in the act of bestowing upon them.”
It is impossible that the people, could
be more significantly taught that their
monarchs were the stewards of Heaven.
"The disc-worshippers were probably
not such irredeemable idolaters as
some of their fellow-! ‘ians ; and
Mr. Osburn says of them that there
was more social affection among them
than among any other sectarists of the
same country. In the monumental
pictures, “the king and queen appear
together on all occasions, and are fre-
quently represented carcssing their
children.” It is neither illogical nor
improbable to refer this great moral
improvement to the influence of the
comparatively purer and more truth-
fal doctrine regarding the divine ex-
istence for which these sectarists con-
tended.

Amenophis, the king of the disc-
wors! held possession of Thebes,
where he overthrew the worship of
Amun, and erased the name and relief
of Amun from all the walls and temples
in the city and vicinity, as well as from
the sides of all the open and unfinished
tombs of Gournon. No further than

this did the disc-worsbippers carry
their mutilations of an idolatry they
wished to destroy. ‘This is a most

creditable feature in a class of sectaries
who would not worship Amun, but a
visible and bencficent God. It is added
that even the mutilations made to put
‘out of inemory the pictorial records of
an olil superstition were effected neatly,
and with scrupulous endeavours to de-
stroy the architectural effects as little
as possible. No idolatrous device or
allusion to Amun was spared, but all
others were left untouched, being con-
sidered as mere embellishments. The
disc-worshippers were in fact the Pu-
ritans, or Low-Church men of Egypt.
‘They arose against the fanaticism and
tyranny of the successors of Amosis in
the cause of their god Amun, whom
they endeavoured to make su

over all the other gods of Egypt.
‘The temple which Sethos I. destroyed
at a subsequent period, and with the
stones of which he built an addition to
the palace of Karnak, was the work
of a powerful faction which arose in
Egypt, and which professed to abolish
the worship (and fora time did so with
great success) of Amun, as well as of
the rest of the idols of the country.

ARTICLES OF SURRENDER OF THE CITY OF CORK, IN 1649, TO THE
PARLIAMENT, WITH CROMWELL'S ANSWER. HITHERTO UNPUB-

LISHED.

By rar Rev. Samvuat Hayman, B.A.

TIIE accession, in October 1649, of
the strong fortified towns in the county
of Cork to the Parliament was a fatal
blow to the royal cause in Ireland. It
came, too, unforced and of choice, of

od will and not from fear. The in-
Bavitants, or at least those of English
origin, were mostly Puritans, who saw
with apprebension the bias of the King
to the religion of Rome, and who,
with sympathies ulready
the Church of England,
sided with Cromwell and the Parlia-
ment. So far, indeed, did their feel-
ings lead them onward, that they
waited not for the Purliamentary
General's approach; but, declaring
themselves openly for him, thoy sent
messengers to him while yet at Ross,
in the county of Wexford, soliciting

and asking authority to raise some
ments for him.

hile collating the corporate re-
cords of Youghal, with the object of
obtaining materials for a local his-
tory, the present writer was fortunate
enough to find in Book A, folio 677,

the following interesting document,
- unknown to Carlyle or the other bio-
graphers of Cromwell :

an instance mentioned of a sentinel
asking alms of the passers by. That
the poor soldier’s fate is hard, however,
is not to be wondered at, as the govern-
ment seems to be of opinion that “the
only way to make a good trooper is to
e him care nothing at all about his
existence ;” and it can cause no sur-
rise that an endeavour to regain some
Fite interest in life by deserting is
very common. According to our au-
thoress, the effect of the conscription
on the rural population is most per-
ceptible. We cannot, however, help
doubting (notwithstanding the evident
fair intention of the writer) whether
her national feeling concerning the
present war has not led her a little to
overstate the case when she says, ““Pass-
ing through nearly 1200 versts of Rus-
sian and Polish land, excepting recruits,
we scarcely saw a young man in any of
the villages: there were only very old
asants with the women und children.”

d we must decline to receive the
evidence of an old woman who was
passionately bewailing the loss of a
nephew taken for a soldier, to prove
that the poorest Russians are now
aware that their adored Czar has
everywhere been beaten. No doubt
“magna est veritas, et preevalebit ;”
but she sometimes takes a long time
about it; and when we consider how
slowly a correct knowledge of the
events of the war is acquired even in
this country, it would suy little

in Russia. These, then, are little more
free than the common serfs, but thelr
knowledge, and therefore their power,
is greater, and it is not unusual to send
those who are capable of profiting by
it for education into foreign countries.
‘We are told of a proprietor who sent
many of his serfs abroad ; onc of them,
who was sent to France to learn to
cook, wrote to his master, when the
time for returning arrived, that he had
undergone “‘a great change in his views
both social and political, and could not
decide upon devoting the rest of his
life to his service.” But if the ma-
Jerity of these travelled slaves return
to Russia, (which seems strange, but
must be so, or the habit of sending
them abroad would not exist,) they
must carry back with them many ideas
of freedom which, as good seed, cannot
remain fruitless even in the stony
ground of Russia. The passage, how-
ever, which has most forcibly struck
us as bearing upon the future of Rus-
sia, is this:-—

Some of the slaves belonging to Count
S— (a nobleman who possesses 120,000
souls on his estate) are among the weal-
thiest shopkeepers in St. Petersburg, and
it is said they have lately lent Count S-—
about 150,000/. to pay off debts on the
property. The shopkeepers and merchants
of Russia are now the richest class in the
country ; the nobility every year are be-
coming poorer. The policy of Catherine
hes worked well in thet respect, for they
say it was she who began to lower their
power, which has ever been dangerous to
the imperial family, and her successors
follow her steps.

Surely that state of society is ano-
malous where slaves are among the
richest dealers in the capital.

of their views being bounded by the
limits of the Russian empire.
commercial spirithasever been thought
peculiarly attached to lom, and
certainly would not lead these wealthy
slaves to view with a friendly eye the
obrock charged on them. And is the
decline of the wealth and power of the
nobility at all favourable to the con-
tinuance of the present tyranny ? Our
Henry the Seventh, taking advantage
of the exhaustive effects of the wars of
the Roses, exercised his peculiar tact
in crushing the nobles of this country,
and doubtless thought that he was

ORIGINAL LETTERS OF SWIFT,
ADDRESSED TO THE PosLisnen or GuLLiven’s TRAVELS.

MR. MOTTE is noticed in Nichols's
Literary Anecdotes* as an cininent
bookseller opposite Dunstan's
church in Fleet Street, and as pub-
lisher to Swift and Pope. He was the
successor of Mr. Benjamin Tooke st
and, dying March 12,1758, was fol-
lowed in his business by Mr. Charles
Bathurst, who published the first col-
lected edition of Swift's Works, edited
by Dr. Hawkesworth, in sixteen vo-
Jumes, 1768.

One evening, after dark, in the
autumn of 1726, the manuscript copy
of the Travels of Lemuel Gulliver was
left re astranger at Mr. Motte’s door.
At the beginning of November the
‘book was published, and almost im-
mediately it was in the hands of all
who then indulged in the luxury of
reading.

‘Though it appeared anonymously,
the world was not slow to guess its
authorship ; and Swift's literary friends
in England, whom he had recently vi-
sited, hastened to congratulate him on
its success. The letters of Arbuthnot,
Pope, and Gray, written upon this
occasion, are all preserved, and ore

fiven in the various editions of Swift's

forks. They all, more or less, hu-
moured hid passion for playing the
incognito; but Sir Walter Scott has
shown that the progress of the work
had been known to them for many
months before.

Dr. Arbuthnot, having recently pub-
lished “Tables of Ancient Coins,” to
which Swift had subscribed for some

copies, wrote to him on the 8th Nov.
1726, saying that his book had been
printed above a month, but he had not
yet got his subscribers’ names. “I will
make over all my profits to, you for
the property of Gulliver's ‘Travels;
which, I believe, will have as great a
run as John Bunyan. Gulliver is »
happy man, that, at his age, can write
such a merry book.” He afterwards
relates that when he last saw the
Princess of Wales, “she was reading

Ledwich, the Irish antiquary, many mar-
final glontes, romeof which are cu through

y the bookbinder’s knife, but others re-
main in extenso. They arc interesting, as
pointing out what portions of the work
were contributed by Ledwich, who seems
in this (once, his own) copy to have been
jealous of his fame.

‘The Advertisement is, in a marginal an-
notation, said to be \ By Ledwich ;"”
and the Introduction is similarly noted,
“The whole written by E. Ledwick.”
When I turn over the pages, I find the like
entries regularly made, e.g. :

Page 147. At the commencement of the
account of Christ Church, Dublin, is this
marginal comment in pencilling : “J sup-
plied at far azy* Crochels. Edw, Led-
wich, F.A.8. 1786." Inverted commas
then'mark out the paragraph in page 147,
commencing with the werds, « Invelved in
obscurity and darkness,"” and take in the
whole of page 148, ceacluding with “a
branch of Augustinians.”?

Page 171. Ledwich writes, in pen-
cilling, opposite the account of Willian
Moreton, Dean of Christ Church, Dublin,
1677-1705, the gloss ‘‘abscure.”*

Page 173. Addition, ad finem, to the

Page 590. The whole of the architec-
taral account of Aghaboe Abbey, Que!
co., with the List of Abbots from the year
1382, is claimed by Ledwich, who scores
the margin of the type with ink-jots, and
writes, ' B. Ledwich, in the year 1786.”

had been warmly discussed throughout the

to the members of convocatis i

Messrs. Deane and Co. Dublin, are the
successful competitors. A delegacy was
at the same time appointed to confer with
the architects, and transact all other busi-
ness for the completion of the museum.
‘The second plan, which was highly spoken
of by competent judges, was by Mr. Barry,
son of Sir Charles Barry. At a conver-
sazione held in the Radoliffe library on the
evening of the 9th, Professor Phillips had
explained the grounds on which the two
plans had been selected. Six designs were
at first chosen out of the whole number,
and these subsequently reduced to two,
the other four being rejected in conse-
quence of inferior internal arrangements,
justitin,” Mr. Barry's design, the
Professor eulogised both for compactness

and good arrangement, adding that one
side of Peckwater Quadrangle at Christ
Church would give a fair idea of its height

and elevation. “Nisi Dominus,”’ the

adopted de is a matter of congratu-
lation that the style of architecture has
been selected which will duly harmonise
with the majority of the neighbouring col
leges and principal buildings.

‘On the 20th Jan, the judges appointed
to award the great Burnett Prizes—one of
1,800. and another of 600/,—to the au-
thors of the two best treatises on “ The
Being and Attributes of God,”” announced
their awards. The successful competitors
were found to be—for the first prize, the
Rev. Robert Anchor Thompson, A.M.
Louth, Lincolnshire; and for the second
the Rev. John Tulloch, manse of Kettin
Cupar Angus, Principal of St. Mary
College, St. Andrew's, Scotland. There
were 208 treatises lodged. The judges

were Professors Baden Powell aud Henry
Rodgers, and Mr. Isaac Taylor. They
were unsnimous in their judgment. The

sealed envelopes were opeued in the Town-
hall at Aberdeen by Mr. John Webster,
advocate, in the presence of the other
large assemblage of the
principal citizens.

‘The Horticultural Society have made
some changes in their programme. The

often renders the day of the May meeting
cold and comfortless, a change which
brings the Festival of Flora in that month
some miles nearer home is clearly for the
better. There garden meetings are in
future to be held on Wednesday instead
of Saturday. As regards the ordinary
meetings in Regent-street, these are to be
six in number for the year, to be held in
February, March, April, May, June, and
November. A new or increased interest
is to be given to these in-door meetings by
the greater attention to be paid to prac-
tical resulta,

“We rejoice to be able to announce the
formation of an Architectural and Arche-
ological Society for Leicestershire. A

Clic meeting for its establishment was
ld in the Town Library at Leicester on
the 10th January, the Ven. Archdeacon
Bonney in the chair, Letters were reed
from the Bishop of the Diocese and from

arl Howe expressing their cordial a
bation of the Tesi vend it was pote
that the Duke. of Rutland would accept
the office of Patron. The first resolution
was moved by Mr. Perry Herrick, of
Beaumanor who expressed his cou-
vietion that such a socicty would be at-
tended with many beneficial results, in
conducing to the study of the ecclesiasti-
cal architecture and antiquities
of the county, There was no doubt that
it had many remains of deep historical
interest still unexplored, to which it would
be the object of the Society to direat atten-
tion, and to preserve them from oblivion.
The rules of the proposed Society wero
read by the Archdeacon, and settled by
the meeting. The Duke of Rutland and
the Lord Bishop were elected Patrons;
Earl Howe, Sir F. G. Fowke, Bart., Sir
Arthur G. 'THazelrigg, Bart. the Arch-
deacon of Leicester, and William Perry
Herrick, esq., Vice-Presidents ; the Hoa.
and Rev. John Sandilands, the Rev. J. M.
Gresley, and Mr. Thomas Ingram, Secre-
taries. ‘Nearly half a century hes elapsed
since the completion of the great Histo
of this county by Br. Nichols; since whi
time but little has beon done for its further
illustration, whilst vast stores of informa-
tion have been opened to the use of the
antiquary in our national and municipal
, and the sciences of archeology
hitecture have materially advanced
both in extent of information and in accu-

of deduction. Mr.T. R. Potter, the
author of a History of Charnwood Forest,
has for some years been engaged in a new
survey of the county, to which the society
will probably afford material assistance.

The Surrey Archeological Society have
issued a report of their first year's pro-
ceedings, but it is more barren of per-

inquiries regarding it, that, out of pre-
caution against inquisitive antiquaries, the

Robertson made some obscrvations on
other ancient Scotish Croziers recorded in
history, as that of St. Kentigern, which
long after his day was preserved at Ripon,
and that of St. Fergus, noticed in the
Breviary of Aberdeen, and suggested that
diligent inquiry would probably be the
‘means of yet adding others to the list.

Jan, 8. The following communications
were read,—

1. “Notice of ‘The Black Book of
Breadalbane,’ preserved at Taymouth, con-
taining Portraits of several members of
the Breadalbane Family, executed in the
beginning of the seventeenth century.””
By Cosmo Innes, esq. This volume was
written by Master William Bowie, who
filled the double office of tutor to the sons
of the laird, and family notary at Balloch
(now Taymouth), under Sir Duncan Camp-
bel, the seventh Laird of Glenorchy. He
began the work in June 1598, and the lest
tries, in the hand of a younger 8c

continued down to 1648. The acqui-

theso is only distinguivhed as the

painter” whom he entertained in his houso
“qucht moneth, and that for painting of
threttio broads of the Kingis of Scotland,
&c, and of the snid Sir Coline his awin and
his predecessors portraits, whilkis portraits
are sett up in the hall and chalmer of «ais
of the house of Balloch.” ‘The other artist
was the cclebrated painter George Jame-
tone; and the notices of his employment
showed the rate of payment of the first of
Scotch artists to be at the rate of 202.
Soots for each picture. It also appeared
that Jamesove was working at Balloch
while the book was writing; and thut he
might be the artist who dashed off the last
of the rude but curious sketches on the
blank leaves of vellum at the end of the
volame. The book was produced, and
excited much interest.

Dec. 13. At his residence in St. Colme
Street, Edinburgh, after an illness of some
‘perks, i hi id yea, the Right Hoa An-
drew Rutherfurd, one of the Judges of the
Court of Session, and a Privy Councillor.

Mr. Ratherfurd was called to the Seo-
tish bar in 1812, and soon obtained there
an eminent position ; his masterly power
of analysis, his vast legal erudition, and his
eloquence in forensic debate, rendering hit
at once distinguished as a lawyer and as &
pleader. Asa scholar and a critic he also
attained considerable celebrity. When
Jeffrey, Cockburn, and others had been
removed to the bench, he was one of the
few who sustained and extended the fame
of the Scotish bar. From an early period
Mr. Rutherfurd associated himself with the,
Whig purty ; in 1237 he was chosen Soll-

itur-Gencral for Scotland ander the Mel-
bourn Administration, and in 1839 he was
appointed Lord Advocate. On the ac.
cession of Sir R. Peel to power in 1841 he
necessarily vacated that post ; bat, on the
return of the Whigs to office in 1846, he
was reinstated in it, and filled it until 1851,
when he was clevated to the bench, under
the title of Lord Rutherfurd, and sworn of
the Privy Council. From 1839 to 1851 he
represented the Leith burghs in Purlia-
ment, and to his services there Scotland
owes several most valuable measurea—the
Entail Reform Act in particular.

On the assembling of the First Division
of the Court of Session on the morning of
Lord Rutherfurd’s death, the Lord Presi-
dent (M°Neill) intimated to the bar that a
calamity bad befallen the Court whereby

always been a Conservative, and as having
only then given up a line of political action
for which there was no longer any motive,
nor, under altered circumstances, any
want, Sir Francis, in a debate in the
House, May 8, 1428, thus intimated openly
his feelings at the non-promotion of his
excelleat fiend :—

“It has been my lot to find some of my
carliest and most valued friends among
the ministers of the Established Church :
and now that I have touched upon this
topic, I cannot refuse mysclf the watisfac-
tion of boasting of my friendship with a
distinguished ornament of the Establish-
ment, an individual who, however he may
be hid in retirement, can never be con-
cealed in obscurity, a man adorned with
the greatest talents and the highest virtue:
and never were strong ability and deep
learning accompanied by more perfect can-
dour and sincerity in the investigation of
truth, than in the cage of the esteemed

ersun to whom I have alluded, and whom

shall now take the liberty to name, his
name being indeed his best. pancgyric—t
mean Dr. Routh, the President of Mag-
dalene College, Oxford.””

In 1810 Dr. Routh became Rector of
Tylehurst, near Reading. To this place
he used to retire at certain portions of the
year tu enjoy the vacation allowed him by
the statutes of his college, and to benefit
his health by change of air and scene. On
the 19th Sept., 1420, he married
Agnes, daughter of J. Blagrave, Esq,
Calcot’ Park, near Tylehurst, a lady to
whose tender, devoted, and unwearied care
we owe, probably, the long preservation
of the valuable and remarkable life in-
trusted to it.

Dr. Routh had the courteous manners
of the old school, and their conversational
powers. He expressed himself with ap-
propriatencss and force, and gave an anec.
dote all the benefit of good telling. He
talked at his own table with great anima-
tion even to the very last, especially when
he got on his favourite subject—the Stuart
times. Nor had he been a careless ob-
server of the political events of his own
life, of the policy of Pitt, and the more
recent movements and combinations of
political parties, THe real tothe last the

‘There can scarcely exist a man who bes

his long and learned career. His name
presents a venerable image before the
minds of thousands who never saw him.
Moreover, he takes us back to others before
his time, and forms a connecting link with
older names. The President of Magdalene
had known Dr. Theophilus Leith, Master
of Balliol, the contemporary of Addison,

the utmost alacrity and spirit, and
when they came to the Frencl i sieniap
ment they found it deserted by the
enemy, they having firat destroyed all
they could. ‘They burnt their waggons,
threw their cannon-balls into the ihke,
pertly cut down the Mill, crossed the
farrows at the Mill, and there cut
down their bridge. They broke the
heads of their terses of wine, which
was spilt on the ground in such plenty
that the ground was quite wet and sof

men rebuilt the bridge before the rest
came up. Not far from this they en-
camped that night. ‘The next day the
orders were that a number of the Pro-
vincial regiments should march within
3 gunshois of the French fortification,
and there ly on their arms flat on their
bellies; that the Regulars should pass
over them, and make the first assault.
Tf the Regulars were beat back and
retired, they were to run over the P
vineinls as they lay, and the Provi
were then to rise and do what they
could. ‘The regiments of the Piovin-
cials (the number of them I think was
six) marched and posted themselves
according to order. After they had
remained in this position 3 hours (the
French not attempting to do them auy
hurt, but seemed to be busy felling
trees, &c.), the Regulars came and
made the assault, but to no purpose ;
for when they came near the French
entrenchments, they found they had
fallen n great number of trees before
their entrenchments, wh much re
sembled trees blown down by a hurri-
cane, lying from the ground 10 feet,
t0 that there was no passing them but

an hundred officers were killed (“died

When the engagement was over,
they returned with their wounded men,
to their last night's encampment. In
the night Colonel Partridge, from

guarantees of that liberty the remains
of which had been preserved to them
for many centuries.”

Tt was towards the year 113h, ten

years after the promulgation of the
charter of Laon, that a political asso-
ciation was first formed among the

burghers of Rheims. The association
took the name of company (compagne),
then synonymous with that of cor-
poration (commune).

The vacancy of the episcopal see,
caused by the death of Archbishop
Renaud, had facilitated this movement,
upon which there remain but too few
details. All that the short notes scat-
tered throughout the ancient records

of the Church acquaint us that
the burghers conspired er to
establish a republic. By this word,

republic, they did not mean to desig-
nate an attempt different from that
which had been made with more or
Jess success by the inhabitants of the
neighbouring towns. At Rheims they
knew no better than elsewhere, and
did not regret more, the forms of go-
vernment of antiquity; but, without
bringing what they wished to establish

to bear upon any political theory, the
tors desired to organise them-
selves into an independent society, free

from episcopal control, which would
thus become to them a kind of foreign
power.

During the vacancy of the see of
Rheims, the metropolitan church was
under the patronage of the king, who
received the temporal revenues thereof,
and exercised lordship over it. Louis
VIL, who had then reigned for about
a yenr, was at variance with Pope
Innocent the Second, who bad placed.
his kingdom under an interdict. In
order to avenge himsclf of the hos-
tilities of the ecclesiastical power, he
retarded intentionally the election of a
new archbishop, and this circumstance
diminished the obstacles which the
burghers of Rheims would otherwise
have encountered in the establishment
of their corporation. ‘The king had
no personal interest to induce him to
go to the expense of an army in order
to dissolve their association, and bring
them back to obedience to the Church ;
and the entire hope of the metropo-
litan clergy for the re-cstablishment of

he had already filled several import-
ant offices, and had been clected a
knight of thc Garter, in the reign of
Henry VI. A new carcer of pros-
perity opened to him under the rays
of “the sun of York.” On the 4th
March, 1464-5, he was appointed lord
treasurer “to the secret displeasure of
the carl of Warwick and the magnates
of England,” ns Worcester repeats, in
his favourite phrase; in 1467 he was
made constable of England for life, with
remainder to the lord Scales his son.

His eldest son Anthony had already
been provided for in marriage with the
heiress of the ancient barony of Seales,
in whose right he was summoned to
parliament. This had taken place in
1462, before the clevation of his sister.
Bir John Wydeville, the second son,
made a different match, and one that
was considered to outrage decency,
even at a time when marriages more
or less unequal in point of age were
not uncommon. Though a mere strip-
ling, he became the fourth husband of
the aged duchess of Norfolk, the grand-
mother of the existing duke.*

But the family of Wydeville was
rudely shaken by the political tempest
of the year 1469, AU that period, the

earl of Warwick, who had become
much dissatisfied with the diminished
share he now enjoyed in the counsels
of the monarch whom he had raised to

Hiren (Anne St. Leger) was now
handed down one generation in the
race of Grey, and destined to become
the future wife of Thomas afterwards
second marquess of Dorset. By an
‘act of parliament in 1482, the
estates of the duchy of Exeter were
settled upon this projected marriage,
acertain slice being at the same time
apportioned off for the advantage of

@ queen's younger son the lord
Richard Grey. On the 16th May, 1483,
the council of the protector Gloucester
directed “a lettre to the bisshope of
Excestre to deliver the Duchesse of
Escestre unto my lord of Buckingham,”
Gloucester taking the first opportunity
to snatch this prize from the queen's
family. By an act of Richard's par-
Tiament, the settlements made in favour
of the heiress so singularly substituted
were reversed, and in Nov. 1484 her
father sir ‘Thomas St. Leger was be-
headed, at Exeter. ‘The quondam
duchess’ was subsequently married 10
sir George Manners lord Roos, and it
is in honour of the royal descent de-
rived through her that the noble house
of Manners displays on its shield a
chief of France and England, and en-
joys the title of Rutland once borne hy

er uncle Edmund of York, killed at
the battle of Wakefield. ‘That title
(with the rank of earl) was first given
to her son ‘Thomas lord Rous by king
Henry VIII. in 1625; and at the same
time he bestowed the title of Exeter
(ith the rank of marquess) on Henry
urtenay carl of Devon, the grandson
of king Balwant 1V. by
Katharine.

‘Turning from this remarkable his-
tory—which has been developed forthe
first time by Mr. Nichols’s researches,
we may remark that king Edward
was not less careful to provide for the
future establishment of his own chil-
dren. Alliances for the whole of his
five daughters were contracted with the

test princes of Europo: his cllest
ughter Elizabeth, was betrothed to
the dauphin of France; Cicely, the
second, to James, heir apparent of Scot:
land; Anne to Philip comte of Charo-
lai, son of Maximilian archduke of
Austria; Mary to the king of Den-
mark; and Katharine to the infante

A PRNCIL SKETCH.
There’s soft green moss beside the brook;
‘There's golden fraitage on the bough;
Earth casts to Heaven a grateful look,
‘And Wisdom comes. . we know not how.

Spurn.
To life the vernal flow'rets wake,
In countless bands oer hill and dale:
Winds of the west! your slumbers break,
And fold them in your dewy veil.
Sumnsz.
Mid blue unclouded skies above,
Yon lustrous arch of light is scen ;
And, touch’d with roseate hues of love,
Earth spreads her robe of emerald green,
Avrunn.
The woods their darkening foliage bow,
As round the fitful breeze is roll'd ;
And mark! how flames yon moorland’s brow,
With all the autumn’s wealth of gold.
Winter.
The hills uplift their helms of snow,
And high their glitt’ring lances wield ;
The river stays his sullen flow,
‘And sleeps upon his icey shield.
L'Exvor.
So speed the yentle hours along,
From orb to orb, their march sublime;
Declaring, as in choral song,
The sacred destinics of time.
The varying day, the changeful scene,
Proclaim the fated world of strife ;
Mid fadeless groves, and skies serene,
The immortal spirit finds its life.
Yet what is Spring, or Summer's glow,
Or purple Autumn's rich decline,
And what the Winter's crown of snow,
If but the eternal year is thine P
Still Nature thro’ each change retains
‘The primal law that knows no fall;
And still essential Love remains,
In one communion binding all.

« published several pamphlets on Indian

rs, aud has freqacutly spoken in the
wurt of Proprietors in defence of the in-
terests of the natives.

At an early stage of his official career
his talents recommended him to the par-
ticular uotice of Sir Thomas Munro, and
the intimacy then founded on sentiments
of mutual esteem, ripened into #0 close a
friendship, that Mr. Sullivan inay be said
to have continued, without a break, the
energetic and perpetual protest. of Sit
Thoinas Munro's later years, against the

pany’s system of absorb-
ing and deerading the princes and aris-
tocracy of India, and reducing the whole
native population to one dead level of pan-
perism and serfdom under the Company's
servants. This may be said to hare been
the entire business of Mr. Sullivan's life
since the period of his retirement from
active tervice and while on the ove hand,
his indefatigable industry and Shoroagh
knowledge the laws, customs, and
matic securities of India gave pecalia teres
to hig eloquent speeches eud pamphlets on
behalf of tie heljless nativeston the other
hand, the many affecting appeals and tri-
butes of gratitude which were sent to him
from all parts of India, showed how deeply

as amateurs, The clear decided outlines
of the geometrical elevations and sections
of mouldings in the plates in this and the
subsequent work formed a style of de-
lineation adopted in all similar publica-
tions, but never surpassed. The descr
tive letterpress was from Mr. Wilson's
pen, as well as the Glossary of Terms,
appended to it; this portion of it is
markable for great research, and 9 cora-
plete that but little has been added to it
by subsequent investigation. The Ex-
amples of Gothic Architecture, which
s0 well followed the Specimens, also

its literary matter to Mr. Willson.
The introductory essays on Gothic Ar
chitectare and on Modern Imitations
display abundant critical knowledge and
cultivated taste. He also contributed to
Br. Britton’s valaable Dictionary of Ar-
chitecture, 1435.

Mr, Willson’s practice as an architect
was chiefly of a private nature, and mainly
confined to the county of Lincoln, to
which he held the office of surveyor for

lore than twenty years. He was occa
nally consulted Ly the Dean and Chapter
on the repairs of the cathedral, and the
organ case erected in 1826 was from his
designs. The restoration of numerous
parish churches was effected under his
care.

Mr. Willson’s reading, in various
branches of literature, was extensive, as
his library tes In ecclesiastical
history he was specially versed, and on the
contested authorship of the Imitation of
Christ he bad bestowed much attention,
and has left copious notes. The literary
undertaking on which he bad bestowed
the greater portion of his leisure was a
collection referring to the history of the
county, and more expecially of the bishup's
see and city of Lincoln. This, owing to
delicate health and his ordinary occupa-
tions, was never completed, nor has any
portion been brought to press: the long
period during which Mr. Willson cullected
these materials, and the ample facilities
be enjoyed, have rendered it roluminous
the various books, MSS. and prints cum:
posing it are in the hands of the executor:
And it ix anderstood will be disposed of.

To all who knew Mr. Willson his candid
amiable character was quickly apparent:
far from any exclusive feeling on the sub-
ject of his dearest purauits, the stores of
copious memory were ever open toall who
approached him either as correspondents
or to benefit from his conversation. Ay a
citizen he was highly esteemed; besidi
performing the duties of a borough magis-
frate since 1634, he filled the office of
mayor of his native place in 1853.

which may belong to the latter part of
the sixteenth century or inning of
the seventeenth, and avery high gubled
roof. ‘The Civorge is the next, and is
remarkable for its very spacious pre-
mises, which extend back a very long
way. Its plan is like the last, an ob-
long, and it has a large quadrangle of
stabling behind the house, and cyen
premises in the rear of this, Its cha-
racter has undergone great changes,
‘and, although cnough remains to show
its claim to be ranked among the rest,
yet is there less in this than in the
others. But the most famous of all
these, not the less from its present ap-
arance than from its connection with
Shaucer's Canterbury ‘Tales, ia the

This inn is not only the most pictu-
resyue of the group, hut it ix probably
the most 80 of uny of aur oli metro=

obvious claim to antiquity than any of
the others, though there is n
connectit with the identical con it
was in when the Canterbury Pilgrims
issued forth from its gates. But, never-
theless, we may console ourselves that
the changes are not rica, but chiefly
indetail. Like the others, it is placed
in ao retired court-yard ot o distance
from the street, and is reached by a
gateway. Of this court-yard it oceu-
pies but two sides, forming one angle,
and this appears to be the old arrange-
ment; but it may have been larger.
Ic is not a lofty structure, and has but
one row of galleries, which bang over,
supported upon brackets, though here
and there with the addition of a
pillar. ‘The gables urc high, and

spacious premises at the back, accord-

govern all these establishments. The
Queen's Head is be last fos theses and

‘The inn is a modernised building at

recently founded in Cambridge under
the will of Dr. Stephen Perse, and kat
by one Lovering.” This statement (p.
xiii,), made on the authority of Bonney
(p. 3), may, after what has been said
shove,’ be “thought Tnaceurate, In the
entry of admission before referred to is
the statement that he was “literis in-
structus in schola publica sub Mr? Love-
ring per decennium.” Now, this phrase
decennium may denote a period of but
{ite ‘moro than zine years) and might
have been used if young Jeremy had made
his first appearance in school after the
‘Midsummer holidays of 1617, being then
nearly six ycars of age, a young scholar of
the new school. Heber, however, goes on
to repeat, on the authority of Rust’s Fa-
neral sermon, that Taylor was but thirteen
ears old on his admission to Caius Col-
lege. That his friend and encomiast Bishop
Rust should have fallen into error on this
point Is not very surprising, at least is not
40 improbable as that his age should have
been misrepresented to his tutor Bach-
croft. Indeed, it may not be uncharitable
to suppose that so warm an encomiast as
Rust,* and one s0 fond of rhetorical effect,
may, with the remembrance of Wolsey
and Francis Bacon, have sought, by under-
stating his age, to heighten the effect of
the picture he proceeded to draw of him
who, ‘had he lived among the ancient
pagans, had been ushered into the world
with a miracle, and swans must have
danced and sung at his birth; and he must
have been a great hero, and no less than
the son of Apollo, the god of wisdom and
eloquence. He was a man long before he
was of age,”” Ko.t

Against the rhetorical asserti
may be weighed the more del
sober statement of Sir James Ware, who,
in the catalogue of Irish bishops, has sup-
posed Taylor, at the time of his death, to
have been two ycars older than, according
to Heber’s view (see note »), he really
can have been.

‘As to the supposition in note (p), that
“it is probable that bis parents, in order
to facilitate his becoming a member of the
university, represented him as older than
he really was, and having attended achool
longer than he could have done with any
advantage,”” we may remark that in 1633
we find one Landiadale admitted * annum
agens 14";" and Nicholas Ferrar was
easily admitted to Clare Hall in his thir~
teenth year, according to the two biogra-
phice of him lately elited in a very ae
mirable manner by Mr. J. E. B, Mayor.

3. Next,ns to the nmount of profit which
he derived from Lovering’s instructions,
we need not form a depreciatory opinion,
because Taylor himself (in a letter 20
longer extant) wrote to the bead of Caius
that he wes “ solely grounded in grammar
and mathematics’ by his father. What
Uttle is known of Lovering does not indi-
cate an incompetent master. It

from the Aduisslon Book thst whilet he re-
mained master of the Perse School many
of his pupils were admitted to the college,
often after five or six years’ instruction by
him; that he subsequently removed to

But perhaps the serviers of Mr.

could, without connecting highways
between its various districts. Settlers
had allocated themselves various
parts without much more thought as
to the consequences than farmer Flam-
borough had when he ordered the
family picture which, when completed,
was found to be too large to be got
into bis house. In the case of the co
lonial settlers, they had got into their
several localities, but could not get out
of them in adirection where profit lay.
‘They were like Sterne's starling, and
the bird's eternal song of “I can't get
out,” might have been the universal
device of all the old settlers in the
rural districts.

and even whole families who have left
their homes for the convenience of

We nre disposed to trust M. Huc on
the whole, with few deductions, in his
aecount of the numbers and state of
the Christians of China. He does not
at all flatter them. He rarely speaks
‘ith satisfaction of a Chinese Chris-
tin. It is true that he could not
see much of them during the journey
across China Proper of which these two
volumes give an account. Only indi-
vidual Christians presented themselves
to him, always with ome seeresy, and
under circumstances exciting compas-
sion for the men ay much as for the
children of the Church

‘Our own impression is certainly nota
favourable one of these Chinese ‘is
tins. Asaquestionofnumbers, M. Huc
rates them at about 800,000, which out
of a population of 300 millions is not
much. But if we were to come to more
close quarters with M. Hue, we should
find that a very large proportion ofeven
these huve only undergone the ont-
ward ceremony of baptism in child-
hood, and have afterwards found it con-
venient to take up occasionally Budd
or Confucius—now and then return-

never to think of them at all. The

(cays M. Huc), he pute him-
self into an oratorieal attitude, and makes
a beautiful speech against idolatry and
in favour of Christinnity. He deplores
the blindness of men who attach them-
selves to the perishable goods of this
world; perhaps he will even give utter-

Tilustrations, painfully showing this
hard and supreme indifference to
truth, are given hy M. Huc, and nu-
merous and very sad they are. As to
outward aids, it might be thought that
a government and 20 disdainfal
of the bigher feelings and principles
would at all events not ate.
This is n mistake. The missionaries
are not really protected. ‘The manda-
rins hate and annoy them everywhere,
andl, on political grounds, the introduc~
tion of a foreign religion is looked on
with jenlousy.*

‘huse who are curious about M.
Hue's opinion on the Christianity of
the present Chinese rebellion may read
what follows; but it must not be for-
gotten that the absence of Catholiciem
and its rites would be quite sufficient
to condemn the whole in the eyes of
a Romiah missionary :

We do not give the slightest credit to
the alleged Christianity of the insurgents,
and the religious and mythical sentiments
expressed in the manifestoes inspire us
with no great confidence. There exis
all the provinces very considerable m
ber of Mursulmen, who have their koran
and their mosques. It is to be presamed
that these Mahometans, who have already
several times attempted to overthrow the
Tartar dynasty, and have always distin-
guished themscives by a violent opposition
to the Government, would have throwa
themselves with ardour into the ranks of
the inmurrcetion. Many of these must
have become generals, and have mingled
in the councils of Tien-te. [t is there-
fore not wonderinl to find among them
the do-trine of the unity of God, and
other ideas of biblical origin, though whim-
sically expressed. ‘The Chinese have also

they first paying the patentee for the rent
of the land under corn, according to the
custom of the country. And for that it
was suggested by the patentee that since
Gerrald’s death, Sir Patrick and others to
his use have received many great sums of
money of the tenants and occupiers for
rents and other profits during three years
past, and converted the same to his own
‘use, the Court orders a Commission to
issue to the Bishop of Kilmore, James
Cusack the portreeve of Tim, William
Nugent of Newhaggard, esq. and Mel-
choir Moore of Iskerrowan, gent. or any
two of them, to examine what rents were
to received, and to return the examina-
tions on the morrow of Trinity next, and
0 much as should appear to have been
received by Sir Patrick by colour of the
Bargain and Sale should be paid over by
him as the Court shall award. And the
Sheriffs of Meath and Kildare should re-
tarn two pannels of frecholders to inquire
for the King upon Gerald’s death, which
Inquiry is to proceed with the best effect,
so as Sir Patrick, his agent or attorney,
do produce and bring into Court such
Evidences as were made in Gerald's time
concerning the premises and came to his
hands.”

Byan entry made inthe Book of Orders
upon the 26th June, 1606 (Trinity Term),
it appears that a certificate had been made
to the Court by the Sherif of Mesth of
the disobeying of the injunction which
had issued in the preceding term (Easter),
to establish Sir Tho. Aishe in the posses-
sion of the Dengin, by Thomas Dod and
Richard Walshe; ‘wherefore the Court
directs an attachment against them, and
that the effects of the certificate should be
delivered to the Lord Deputy, and his
assistance desired in reformation of so
high a contempt of hit ty’s writ.
And a like attachment is directed also
against Morogh Melaghli

‘The foregoing record informs us that
Sir Patrick was sapported in his attempt
to defeat the plaintiff in his endeavour to
obtain possession of the Weseley estates by
at least three of the tenants. This sup-
port, however, could probably but ill sus-
tain him against the address of ‘his foes,
for it appears that they had contrived to
induce the young heir (at least I may rea-
sonably assume it to be the case) to come
into the Court of Exchequer at the time
of its sitting, and there publicly to declare
that be would not marry Sit Patrick’s
daughter; the which strange event took

lace on Thursday the 27th of November,
To0e, being in Michaelmas Term, when
the following entry was made in the Book
of Orders :—

“ Memorandum,—This daie Valerian
Weseley, sonne and heire of Gerald
Weaely, his Majesties ward, came into the
Court, and before the Barrons and in face
of the Court, both by word of mouth and
by writing, all of his owne hand, refased
to take the danghter of Sir Pattrick
Barnewall to wife, whome the said Sir
Pattrick would have him to marry, and
desired the Barrons to have the same
entred of record in this Court, w** the
Barrons commanded to be enrolled, in

‘The writing s0 read and delivered into
Court appears upon the Memoranda Rell
of the year 1606, and is in these words :

“ Right Honorable,—Und

In the following term a motion was
made in Court on the behalf of Sir Patrick
for the purpose of defeating this attempt
of Sir Thomas Ashe to deprive him of his
intended son-in-law; but the motion then
made, and the subsequent proceedings
in the cause, must form the subject of
another paper.

The work of University Reform is now
in progress at Osford, in pursuance of the
provisions of the recent Act of Parliament.
In a Congregation held on the 13th of
March a vote which established the prin-
ciple of an exemption of Dissenters from
the Divinity portion of the examinations
‘was carried by a majority approaching to
two-thirds, —placet 68, non-placet 26.
Another clause of the same statute, which
provided that there should be some sub-
stitute for the portion of the examination
from which Dissenters are to be excused,
was likewise opposed, but carried by 61
votes to 37. On the 20th March a statute
was passed regulating the appointments to
the various Professorships. On the 23rd
the statute prepared by the Hebdomadal
Council on the subject of Private Halls
was promulgated in Congregation. The
following is an outline of this arrangement :
—The head of a Private Hall is to bea
Master of Arts or other member of Con-
vocation, and to have resided during one
year in the last two years, or two years in
the last five, or three years in the last ten,
preceding the opening of hix Hall. He ix
to take part in the instruction, but may
have an assistant or tutor, to be approved
by the Vice-Chancellor. ‘The head of the
hall is to keep a register of the residence
kept by his pupils, which he is to commu-
nicate terminally to the registrar of the
university. The pupils are to attend daily
prayers in a parish church or college
chapel. ‘The Vice-Chancellor is to inspect
and approve of. the house intended for a
private hall before licensing it; and, in
case of an hall being ill-conducted, he is,
with the advice of the Assessor of the
Chancellor's Court, and four persons to be
named annually for the purpose, to take
Proceedings agenst the brad, and suspend
or deprive him. A. private hall may be
come a public one, Pike building is con-

to the university, and the appoint-
bieat of the Principal placed in such hands
‘as the university approves.

‘Thelate Dr. Johnaon’s scholarships have
been awarded as follows:—The Theologi-
cal to Charles Edward Oakley, Demy, Mag-
dalen; the Mathematical to Samuel Court.

WINE, ITS USE AND TAXATION.

Wine, its Use and Taxation. By Sir James Emerson Tennent, K.C.G., &e.
8r0. London.

WE strung together iu these pages
a few months since some notes of the
wine trade of this country, us seen
through the spectacles of an anti-
quary, and we ventured, as we looked
back to atime when a more varied if
not a more discri
produce of the
a'larger pro
express a hope that the cordial alliance
which now unites us with France might
lead before long to such a revision of
the tariff as might encourage a much
more liberal importation of the light
and wholesome wines of that country.
In the present volume we have the
uestion of the reduction of the wine
juty examined with a practical finan-
cial view, and the conclusions to which
the author arrives are unfavourable to
any immediate diminution of the tax.
Sir Emerson Tennent, now one of the
Secretaries to the Board of Trade, was
a member of the committee of the
House of Commons appointed in 1862
to consider the expediency of a reduc-
tion of the wine duty; and, that com-
mittee having parted without delivering
a verdict, Sir Emerson has under-
taken, in the present publication, to
collect the result of the evidence then
adduced and of his own investigations,
and to furnish an answer to the ques-
tion propounded by the Legislature.
It must be admitted that the blue
book thus produced is much more en-
tertaining than the generality of blue
books. ‘The question, however, to
which the author addresses himeelf is
too exclusively the financial one to
lead to anything like an exhaustion of
the subject. ‘The more zealous adlvo-
cates for the reduction of the duty
have been bold enough to predict
large increase of the revenue to arise
from a substantial diminution of the
tax. Some have even gone so far as
to say that if the duty was reduced
trom the present rate of 5s. 9d. on a
gallon to Is, the revenue might be ex-
pected to rise from 1,900,000. to three
or even six millions. It is with these
projectors that Sir Emerson joins issue,
contending that the present rate of

taxation is that at which the

amount can be realised for the Exche-
quer, and that, as a higher rate could
not be imposed without checking com
sumption, so no lower rate would «
far encourage consumption as to mais
tain the revenue at its present beight
Upon this somewhat confined issue, we
confess our conviction that Sir Emerse
makes out his case. The considera-
tions which lead most powerfully o
this conclusion are such as the follow-

. Although we cannot with
Mr. Porter in thinking that the reduc-
tion of duty would not induce the pre-

sent consumers of wine to drink one
bottle more, still if must be allowed
that the only thing which would lead
to such a substantial augmentation of
consumption as would prevent a loss
to the revenue from any reduction of
duty, would be to increase considerably
the area of consumption, and to in-
troduce a taste for wine among classes
to which the use of it is now almost
wholly unknown. ‘The question there-
fore is, whether any reduction of the
duty would have this effect. Now,
although the experiment is atill to be
tried, we thinl ere ix evidence

“enough toshow that the only wines for

which the people of this country, and
especially the inferior classes, have any
predilection, are those of the greatest
body and flavour. The evidence given
before the House of Commons com-
mittee by two proprietors of public
houses in London, where wine is re-
tailed over the counter, tends to this
conclusion. So far from discovering
any taste in their customers for light
wines, they concur in declaring tI
cheap claret docs not suit them, and
would not be in demand by the middle
classes, and that it must be strong
wine, else they will not have it at all.

Perhaps (says Sir Emerson Tennent)
no more apposite instance can be girea
than that of Australia, to show the little
Prospect of creating, by means of « low
duty, = demand for the light wines of
France, when beverages are pres
curable even at double the cost. The
population of Australia is composed prim

assent, for thenoticesinour general Church
Histories are scanty. He considers that “in
some parts the history might have been
faller and more detailed; but the author
sought to be brief, and this in 4 merit that
certainly possesses its own advantages.””
‘We would warn the reader to expect, not a

‘vantage, for hia prepared (apart of course
from particular theories) to the
subject thus, by the series of trials which
Christianity undergoes between the open-
ing of the first seal (Rev. vi 2) and its
‘counterpart in the final victory (xix. 11.)

First, we have a selection from
the author's poctical productions at various
ages from his boyhood, which show the
usual development of the poetic character.
We hare the schoolboy. convinced that be
is a philosopher who woos only ‘the
Roman Muse or coyer Greek," who loves,
bat “ Wisdom is the fair.”” "Anon,
mistresses have rivals, and certain ladies
{quite irresistible,”” ‘or “ unrequiting,”
Eliza and others, are addressed in stanzas,
some lively, some, as Autolycus says,
“yety mournful, and as true.” Arrived
at that mature age at which he graduated,
be naturally calls on his friend to

quit the feverish strife,
‘The solemn plansibilities of life.””

Subsequently discovering, however, that
Tife is not necessarily exhausted at two-and-
twenty, and that there are some things
worthy of admiration init, we have various
odes to the great men and events of the
day, together with stanzas complimentary
and condoling. Such is the poetical coi-
Jection before us, and we think we have
shown that it is almost as well suited for
taste a the budget of that great

Jor of ballads, whom we have before
named. The merit of the pieces is also
various; some are carefully elaborated,
others y struck off in haste, but

all are scholarlike and worthy of perusal;
many contain passages of great force and
beauty. The “Ode to Waterloo” (among
the juvenilia we presume by mistake) ooa-
tain lines powerfully descriptive of British
valour, as shownon that plain, which might
aptly describe the same spirit on the
bloody field of Inkermann, We may edd
that this is one of the most suocessful
anacreontics that we remember to have
read.

greater part of thig little book,
', is devoted to a tale called by the
‘ Tract on Education in —
guise.” The style is that of Fielding,
the author treats his reader asa reasonable
being, capable of drawing conclusions from
facts. He does not therefore preach to
us, but shows in the course of tale of
considerable interest, and conducted by
amusing dramatis persona, the evils to be
dreaded from the educational errors he
deprecates. The hero tells his own story,
and traces his course from a childhood of
indulgence to an ago of voluntary exile.
He shows how a well-meaning father of
more than average atteinments, while be
secured to his son a competent amoant of
knowledge, failed in that more importeat
part of education, tbe formation of his
character; how the hero was thrust into
the world that most unfortunate of all
beings (especially in university life), a
man who could not say No either to his
friend or to his own desires. We haw
seldom met with a relation more strikingly
or fairly illustrating the terrible oonse-
quences that may flow from what some
might consider a “little sin (for the here
was the seduced rather than the seducer),
than the fate of one of the female cha-
racters. We should add that a very plea-
sant vein of satire rans through this tale,
‘The littlenesses of the great men of the
world (or rather, perhaps, of those that
hold the places of great men when the
latter cannot be found), are happily illus
trated in the school politics, as are also
many of the fopperies of college life. The
other things in this volume are some short
extracts from a tragedy, which, if they be
fair samples, might well have been ex-
tended, and various amusing anecdotes of
that leviathan, the learned Dr. Parr, who
was a friend of the author. We sincerely
hope that the book may be successfal at
the widow's rescue; that it will rescue
many from ennui is certain.
