WyMs Globe. — ■About the year 1839, the late 

 Mr. Wm. Vialls proposed a Georama in London ; 

 and a meeting waS held for its promotion in Pall 

 Mall, with the Duke of Sussex in the chair, at 

 which Mr. Wyld was present as a patron of the 

 plan. He then mentioned his own views ; and his 

 plan differed from the other in looking at the globe 

 from the inside, instead of from the outside as in 

 Mr. Viall's globe, which was to have been placed 

 at the Colosseum. The times were then unfa- 

 vourable, and, soon after the meeting, Mr. Vialls 

 died, and the plan fell to the ground.

Jen d Esprit. — I find the following jeii d'esprit 

 among some so-called autographs. Whether it is 

 really what it pretends to be or not, I cannot tell. 



" Would you have each blessing full, 

 Hither fly, and live with Bull ; 

 Feast for body, feast for mind, 

 Best of welcome, Taste refined, 

 Bull does nothing here by halves, 

 All other Landlords are but Calves. 



« T. Erskine." 



Query, Who was Bull ? C. W. Bingham. 



Foreign Journals and Reviews, — 



" The number of newspapers published in the kingdom 

 of Saxony is 220; in Austria, 271 ; in Bavaria, 178; in 

 Wurtemberg, 99; and in Hanover, 89. Italy possesses 



311 journals and reviews, and Switzerland more than 

 563."

Kenton Bells. — As the Rev. H. T. Elf.a- 

 COMBE is curious about the inscriptions on bells, 

 I send you a copy of some taken thirty years ago 

 from his neighbourhood, Kenton Church, Devon.

Compensativeness. — It is a rather singular 

 coincidence that the three English counties which 

 contained the most extensive seminaries of me- 

 diaeval or monastic learning should have also 

 produced the three greatest promulgators of 

 modern (or anti-monastic) philosophy. 



Lincolnshire, which contained the Abbey of 

 Croyland, produced Sir Isaac Newton. Somerset- 

 shire, in which the Abbey of Glastonbury was 

 situate, gave birth to John Locke. Middlesex, 

 the seat of the Abbey of St. Peter at Westminster, 

 was the native county of Francis Bacon. 



The revenues of Westminster and Glastonbury 

 were by far the largest in the kingdom at the 

 period of the Dissolution. Henry T. KiiiET. 



Old Friends with New Faces. — You have 

 chronicled some re-issues of books with a second 

 title. Allow me to add another to the list : 



" Theatrical Biography, on Memoirs of the Principal 

 Performers of the Three Theatres Roj'al, Drury Lane, 

 Covent Garden, and Haymarket. 1772. 2 vols." 



is substantially the same (there are editorial in- 

 sertions, omissions, and alterations), as — 



« Secret History of the Green Room. 1792. 2 vols." 

 under which latter title it seems to have "gone 

 off," as I have seen a "fourth edition" bearing 

 that title, and the date 1795 or 1796. 



As far as I have had opportunity of comparison, 

 each edition, I should say, has undergone correc- 

 tion. And in this fourth edition, I saw an addition 

 which I regret not having copied. If, therefore, 

 any correspondent could and would favour me 

 with the loan of it for a few days, it would confer 

 a great obligation on Tee Beb.
