NICHOLS and SON, CICERO'S HEAD, 25, Parliament Street, Westminster; where all Letters to the Editor are requested to be sent, POST-PAID. MINOR CORRESPONDENCE. Mr. R. P. PLAYER, of Malmsbury, with reference to the article on the triangular Bricks found at that town, in our Dec. number, p. 500, begs to reply to the observation of B. C. T. that "the further destruction of parts of the walls has lately been carried on by the tenants of the Rev. George Rushout Bowles." He says, "only two of those lessees have lately made any alterations in the walls, of whom I am one. These walls support immense loads of earth on each side of the road; and, with the exception of some low fragments which were in a most dilapidated state at the western extremity, and another dangerously projecting fragment at the east end, all the line of wall which came into my possession had previously fallen down. Some parts had been repeatedly rebuilt, and that so unskilfully, that every vestige of antiquity was destroyed; and so insecurely, that it became absolutely necessary to unload the top, and remove large quantities of earth from the back, to prevent further dilapidation; which, notwithstanding these precautions, there is every reason to expect: in case of its occurrence, it is intended to secure such parts by internal buttresses. Your Correspondent wrote, no doubt, under the influence of the purest zeal; but without having duly informed himself of particulars." With reference to the family of Isaacson (see our last volume, pt. ii. pp. 194, 502,) Mr. JOHN BELL of Gateshead, writes: "If a family of Isaacson, (of whom Anthony, who was High Sheriff of Northumberland in 1742, and Comptroller of the Customs at Newcastle; and John, who was Recorder of Newcastle, and died in 1737-8;) are any part of the research of your Correspondent Mr. STEPHEN ISAACSON, I should feel happy in giving a brother antiquary (as I suppose him to be) a copy of their pedigree. Anthony, above nained, married a daughter of Sir William Creagh, Knt. a personal friend of James II., for whose pedigree I am in search." In auswer to C. S. (Nov. p. 386,) A. B. communicates the following inscription, which was on the coffin-plate of Mrs. Eliza beth Cotton, who was buried in the Des Bouveries family vault in St. Katharine Crees Church, London :-" Mrs. Elizabeth Cotton, daughter of Col. Cotton, and niece of Sir Robert Cotton, Bart. of Combermere in Chesshire, died 15th Oct. 1776, aged 90 years."-By her will she left her houses in James-street, Buckingham-gate, to R. S. Cotton, esq. of Crown street, Westminster, and after him to his son R. S. Cotton, esq. of Reigate Heath (the father and younger brother ot the present Lord Combermere). C.R. H. remarks: "In the Boyle's Lectures, preached in 1747, 8, 9, by Henry Stebbing, D.D. Chancellor of Sarum, entitled Christianity justified upon the Scripture foundation,' are the following passages: 'This everlasting punishment decreed against the disobedient and refractory, is what we properly term the sanction of the law of Christ,' &c. (p. 121); we must then proceed to the sanction itself, and inquire whether there be any thing in it that impeaches the justice, wisdom, or goodness of God. By the sanction I mean the penalty to be inflicted upon the transgressors of the law' (p. 239). I wish some of your learned Correspondents to give their opinion, whether the word sanction is here used in its legitimate sense, for I cannot find any other author so using it."-The same Correspondent remarks: "In the first verse of the sixth chapter of St. Luke's gospel, the obscure words on the second Sabbath after the first,' or rather the second first Sabbath,' do not appear well explained by the commentators, who suppose it to mean the Sabbath day in the Passover week. It has occurred to me, that, as the Jews had two methods of computing time, one for civil, the other for ecclesiastical purposes; and as these years commenced at two different periods, it is possible that to point out a certain Sabbath, which had otherwise no particular designation, they might so term the first Sabbath of the civil year.' " P. inquires, "Where can be found the Latin Poem in which occurs, · Cranmeri dia senectus et Latimeri simplicis umbra. These are the fragments of lines which were quoted in Convocation at Oxford by Bishop Bagot; when, deprecating the abolition of the Test Acts, he appealed to the memories of Cranmer and Latimer, &c. &c. The Poem, I am sure, is to be found in some academical collection of Latin Poems; and I think when at Christ Church I possessed the volume." T. F. and S. B. artists, remark, that the picture of the Tric-Trac players by Teniers, (Mr. Raddon's engraving from which was noticed in our Supplement, p. 629,) belongs to Mr. Henry Philip Hope, of Norfolk-street, Park-lane, who owns the whole of the magnificent collection of Dutch and Flemish pictures, forming a separate gallery in the house of his nephew Mr. Henry Thomas Hope, in Duchess-street, Portland-place. We shall gladly comply with the wishes of C. M. S. His communications, with those of E. J. M.; B. C. T.; P. D.; and others, in our next. |
