TOMB OF 

 THE TRAOESCANTS. 



In Lambeth Churchyard is a Monument, 

 once handsome and elaborately carved, which 

 was erected in 166/ by the widow o John Tra- 

 desoant the younger, to the memory of her 

 father-in-law, her husband, and her son, who 

 were inhabitants of that parish. 



The Monument of tiie Tradescants, which 

 was repaired by public subscription in 1773, has 

 now again fallen into decay. The inscription 

 also on the stone that covers Ashmole's grave, 

 who was himself buried in Lambeth Church, is 

 now very nearly eft'aced. The restoration of 

 that Church, now nearly fluished, seems a fit 

 occasion for repairing both these Monuments. 

 It is therefore proposed to raise a fund for the 

 perfect restoration of the Tomb of the Tra- 

 DEscANTj, according to its original form, as re- 

 presented in two drawings preserved in the 

 Pepysian Library at Cambridge, iind also for 

 renewing Ashmole's epitaph. Tne cost will 

 not be less than 100?., and assistance is earn- 

 estly re luested from all who are anxious to 

 preserve ancient monuments, especially those 

 who are following the same pursuits as the 

 Tradescantsj and who are daily deriving be- 

 nefit and delight from the labours and disco- 

 veries of these first of English gardeners and 

 naturalists.

TLLUSTRATIONS AND EN- 



JL QUIRIES RELATING TO MESMER- 

 ISM. Part I. By the Rev. S. R. MAITL AND, 

 D.D. F.R.^. F.S.A. Sometime Librarian to 

 the late Archbishop of Canterbury , and Keeper 

 of the MSS. at Lambeth. 



" One of the most valuable and interesting 

 pamphlets we ever iead."—]Uomitig Herald. 



" This publication, which promises to be the 

 commencement of a larger work, will well 

 repay serious perusal."— /c Eccl. Jourii. 



" A small pamphlet in which he throws a 

 startling light on the practices of modern Mes- 

 merism." — Nottinffham Journal. 



" Dr. Maitland, we consider, has here brought 

 Mesmerism to the • touclistone of truth,' to the 

 test ot the standard of right or wrong. We 

 thank him for this first instalment of nis in- 

 quiry, and hope that he will not long delay 

 the remaining portions." — London Medical 

 Gazette. 



" The Enquiries are extremely curious, we 

 should indeed say important. That relating 

 to the Witch of Kndor is one of the most suc- 

 cessful we ever read. We cannot enter into 

 particulars in this brief notice ; but we would 

 strongly recommend the pamphlet even to 

 those who care nothing about Mesmerism, or 

 angru (for it has come to this at last) with the 

 subject."— i>(t6?jtt Evening Post. 



" We recommend its general perusal as being 

 really an endeavour, by one whose position 

 gives him the best facilities, to ascertain the 

 genuine character of Mesmerism, which is so 

 much disputed."— Woohner's Exeter Gazette. 



" Dr. Maitland has bestowed a vast deal of 

 attention on the subject for many years past, 

 and the present pamphlet is in part the result 

 of his thoughts and inquiries. There is a good 

 deal in it wliich we should have been glad to 

 quote .... but we content ourselves with re- 

 ferring our readers to the pamphlet itself." — 

 Brit. Mag.
