SOCIETY OF ANTIQUARIES.

Nov. 20. The Society held their first meeting for the season, which was numerously attended, Mr. Hudson Gurney in the chair. The Secretary announced a large number of presents of books, &c. from the Commissioners of Public Records and other learned bodies, and from individuals.

Thomas Farmer Dukes, Esq. F.S.A. of Shrewsbury, communicated an account of several ancient weapons of bronze, consisting of swords, spear-heads, and celts, found near the foot of the Wrekin, in Shropshire; the account was accompanied by drawings, and several of the original weapons, and casts in brass from others.

Mr. King, of Chichester, communicated, through the hands of the Bishop of Chichester, an account, with drawings, of a colossal head found near the Episcopal Palace at Chichester, supposed to be designed for the head of King Edward I.; it was a large corbel, probably in the interior of the building, having been coloured. Also two Roman inscriptions discovered at Chichester; and drawings and descriptions ofsome Egyptian remains brought from Thebes, by P. Stewart, Esq. in 1833, and deposited in the museum of the Chichester Philosophical Institution.

Mr. Schomberg, of Tortola, presented a collection of Caribean antiquities, consisting of stone-hatchets, &c. with a dissertation on the origin and descent of the Caribs, the reading of which was postponed.

Nov. 27.-H. Hallam, Esq. V. P. Edward John Rudge, Esq. M.A. author of Remarks on the Architecture of Evesham Church, was elected Fellow.

Mr. Henry Herman Kater presented a sword found in 1812, in a peat-bog at Lyndale, in the Isle of Skye. It is of mixed metal; and in size and shape, nearly similar to one lately found in the Thames, by the ballast-dredgers, off Somerset-house, and now in the possession of a gentleman at the Tower of London.

If the swords of this shape are of Roman origin (and it is probable they are), there can be no doubt, judging from their weight and length, that they were used by the cavalry.

Thos. Phillips, Esq. R. A. and F. S.A. communicated an account of a British canoe found at North Stoke, in Sussex, in a field where there evidently existed, in early times, a creek from the river Arun. GENT. MAG. VOL. III.

It is hollowed out from the half of the trunk of a large oak, first rudely squared at each end. Its length is 35 feet, 4 inches; its depth, in the centre, 1 foot, 10 inches; its width, 4 feet, 6 inches; its thickness at bottom, 4 inches. It was first drawn from its place of deposit on the 25th of July last; but had been seen for many years, and even cut through in the formation of drains, being regarded only as a fallen tree. It is altogether much decayed. It has been presented to the British Museum by the Earl of Egremont, on whose land it was found.

In consequence of the death and funeral of the Duke of Gloucester, there were no meetings of the Society on the 4th and 11th of December.

Dec. 18. W. R. Hamilton, Esq. V. P.

John Young, Esq. of Finsbury-square, was elected a Fellow of the Society.

Mr. Diamond exhibited a Roman coin of Commodus, a piece of brass chain, and other fragments of metal, found in one mass of conglomerated gravel in the piles of London-bridge.

Sir F. Palgrave, F.S.A. communicated a short account of the relics of the ancient Treasury of the Chamberlains of the Exchequer, remaining under his custody at the Chapter-house, Westminster; they consist principally of several dies for coins, and a bag of 169 groats of Henry VII.

Mr. Samuel Woodward communicated a plan and description of the ruins of the Priory Church of Wymondham, in Norfolk, which have been recently explored by the parochial authorities. The most remarkable discovery, was that of two leaden cases, which were opened, and found to contain, one, the body of a young female, and the other, that of a footus of the fourth month, both carefully embalmed; the lady was undoubtedly some near relation of the founder, William de Albini. Some further particulars of this discovery have already been published in our number for March 1834, p. 317. In the Chapter-house were two other coffins, containing the interments of priors; and under the floor was a mass of melted lead, which had been run into the spot, and being twice marked with the King's stamp, is with the greatest probability supposed to have been part of that seized by Flowerdew, upon the dissolution, at the time when the spoliation of this very monastery conduced to the breaking out of Kett's rebellion. Mr.

M

Woodward added a drawing of the beautiful seal of Archbishop Arundel, affixed to a license for erecting a belfrey at Wymondham, in 1411. It represents the murder of Thomas a Becket.

RECENT DISCOVERIES AT POMPEII.

At Pompeii there has been lately opened the street leading from the Temple of Fortune to the Gate of Isis, passing nearly through the middle of the town. On reaching a central point from which streets diverge to the theatres and to the walls of the city, there was found an altar, placed before the protecting genius of the town, in the form of a serpent; the faces of the altar are ornamented with paintings, representing the priests offering libations and other sacrifices. On exploring two shops in the street of Fortune, there was discovered a pair of bronze scales, and a weight in the shape of a pear, a bronze dish with handles, a hatchet, and some small cylindrical objects made of bone and perforated, supposed to have been used either in some female works or for making calculations. A house has been discovered behind the grand Mosaic, comprising a vestibule, several sleepingrooms ornamented with simplicity, and a tabulum or host adorned with the most exquisite paintings on stucco. In this house were found a bronze shell of elegant workmanship, an earthen lamp, black with smoke, vessels containing colours, and a wooden chest lined with iron, and surrounded by figures formed of brass nails.

BRONZE CINERARY URN.

At Bavai, near Valenciennes, by the side of the road to Avesnes, one of the seven old Roman roads that concentrated at Bavai, a very fine cinerary urn in bronze, between nine and ten inches high, including the cover, and eight inches in diameter, was lately discovered. It contained some portions of bones nearly reduced to dust, and has the following inscription:-" DIS M. Hirtius C. Anno VIICX." It is in fine preservation, and ornamented with basreliefs in the purest style and of superior workmanship. It probably was made to contain the ashes of one of the companions of Tiberius, who died at Bavai during the residence of that emperor there.

ROMAN REMAINS AT KENT-STREET, SOUTHWARK, AND ST. CLEMENT'S-LANE, LONDON.

In the burial-ground of the Dissenters' Chapel, in Deveril-street, New Doverroad, which is situated about 200 yards

south-west of Kent-street, a part of the line of the ancient Watling-street, Roman urns, lacrymatories of glass, and other vessels, are found almost on every occasion when the ground is opened for a fresh interment. A very perfect and elegantly formed urn of grey pottery, eight inches high, seven inches in diameter at the top, and three at the bottom, containing calcined bones, evidently carefully separated from the embers of the funeral pile, has recently been discovered. Mr. Martin, an undertaker, who resides near the Chapel, has numerous articles of similar antiquity in his possession, found on the same spot, and among them several fragments of highly polished bronze mirrors, which have apparently been purposely broken at the interment of the ashes of the females to whom they had probably belonged. These remains decidedly mark the site of a Roman or Romano-British burial-ground.

as

In the excavations for the houses in the new street from London-bridge to the Bank, Roman remains have not been wanting, though not so numerous might have been expected; perhaps, from the circumstance that this place was included in the site of an open space, appropriated to a Roman forum, to which the Saxon East Cheap, or market, succeeded. The workmen have found several of the beads, of a semiopaque, porcelain-like substance, commonly called Druid beads; and at the corner of Clement's-lane, immediately contiguous to the Church, at the depth of seven feet, a Roman floor, formed of their favourite compost, tesseratum, or pounded tile and lime, might a few days since be observed; also fragments of walls, composed of rag stone and Roman brick; a well*, neatly steined; and, at the same time, several coins of Vespasian, and much fractured Samian ware, were discovered. A fragment of the latter, in our Correspondent's possession, is ornamented with grotesque heads, representing Persona, or stage masks employed by the Roman actors. This adds another to the numerous instances of Christian churches in London standing on foundations of Roman buildings, and indicating that their sites had been pre-occupied by Pagan temples; on which subject the reader may consult the Ecclesiastical History of the Venerable Bede, lib. i. cap. 30.

* Numerous Roman wells have been discovered in the recent excavations near East Cheap. The Romans evidently availed themselves of the fine springs with which the substrata of London abound.

The Lady Chapel, St. Saviour's.-- On Saturday, the 20th instant, a meeting of the Committee for the Restoration of the Lady Chapel took place in the Vestry Room of St. Saviour's Church. The Rev. Dr. Kenney reported, that, “ pursuant to the undertaking of the Right Hon. and Venerable Lord Walsingham, Archdeacon of Surrey, expressed at the meeting of the Clergy at his Lordship's visitation at St. Saviour's Church on the 29th day of October last, he had immediately applied to the Lord Bishop of the Diocese for his approval of the proposed limited subscription of one guinea each, by the Clergy and such of the Parishioners in the several parishes of the diocese as would be inclined to contribute, towards a fund for the restoration of the nave of St. Saviour's Church, and the liquidation of the balance of expences for the Lady Chapel. That after lengthened correspondence, the Lord Bishop was pleased to appoint an interview in St. James'ssquare with the Rev. Dr. Kenney and Thomas Saunders, esq. F. S. A., on Wednesday, 17th Dec. instant, at which, after full consideration and explanation, his Lordship was kind enough to express his warmest approbation of the objects in view; and that, although he did not feel himself at liberty to issue any official circular on the subject, yet his good wishes for the measure might be mentioned, accompanied with his intention, if the subscription was followed up, and there should be ultimately a deficiency in the required amount, to subscribe 2001., in addition to his subscription of 3007., already given for the Lady Chapel." Thus much we have derived from our personal attendance on the proceedings of the Committee-and we have only to add our hearty wish that the public liberality may reimburse Mr. Saunders in a considerable sum of money (7001.) which is still due to him on account of the expenses incurred by him in the restoration of the Lady Chapel-of which he most generously and zealously adopted the responsibility-as also, that the dismantled, desecrated, and neglected nave will (ere it be too late) obtain similar exertions for its restoration. One half of the noblest Gothic church in the diocese of Winchester (save its Cathedral), and in the metropolitan district, is daily mouldering away by the barbarous removal of its roof,

and exposure to the weather. Let those who venerate the taste of our ancestors, and respect the ancient altars of their country's Christianity, timely preserve this noble monument of both.

From the Annual Report of the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, just published, it appears that "a very considerable augmentation of its income, and a proportionate increase in the circulation of its publications, have taken place in the past year. Its income has amounted to the sum of 74,000l. 16s. 5d. being an increase upon the preceding year of more than 3,0001. The total number of its publications circulated during the past year has amounted to 2,152,073, being an increase of 72,000 upon the preceding year." This statement is exclusive of the books circulated by the Committee of General Literature and Education. The number of publications circulated by that committee alone in one year, including the Saturday Magazine, has amounted to 5,163,929. Of the Saturday Magazine, which was their earliest work, an increase of the amount of nearly fifteen thousand numbers in each week has taken place; and the average of the weekly circulation, including the Supplements, is now more than ninety-five thou sand The total number of copies sold in the past year, is four millions nine hundred and fifty-seven thousand, and eightyfour. The total number of the publications sold in the past year, exclusive of the Saturday Magazine, is two hundred and six thousand eight hundred and forty-five.

The clergy of Exeter, in a late address, having called upon the public and the legislature "to attend to the deficiencies in the existing laws for the enforcement of clerical discipline," the Bishop of the diocese, Dr. Phillpotts, in reply, took the occasion to quote the speech of Lord John Russell, in order to deny the reported assertion of his lordship with respect to tithe commutation. "No such measure," says Dr. Phillpotts, "was presented to the bishops, nor had they authorized any statement of their intention to oppose such a measure." It was his own wish, he says, and the wish of the Bishops as a body, to assent to any equitable measure for the settlement of the tithe question, which the Government
