NOTES AND QUERIES. 



[2nd s. No 92., Oct. 3. '67. 



The cases which were some time before the Courts 

 with respect to the ritual observances and other pro- 

 ceedings at the churches of St. Barnabas and St. Paul's, 

 Knigbtsbridge, were of such importance, and the ques- 

 tions involved were of such deep interest to so large a 

 body of churchmen, that we cannot doubt that a carefully 

 prepared record of them will be valued by many. Such 

 an one has just appeared under the title of The Cases of 

 Westerton against Ltddell ( Clerk'), and Home and others, 

 St. Paul's, Knightsbridge, and Seal against Liddell ( Clerk), 

 and Parke and Evans, St. Barnabas, Pimlico, as heard and 

 determined by the Consistory Court of London, the Arches 

 Court of Canterbury, and the Judicial Committee of Her 

 Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council, by Edmund F. 

 Moore, Esq., M.A., Barrister-at-Law. Mr. Moore, having 

 attended the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council as 

 professional reporter of the cases there decided, has 

 •framed such a report of, these two cases as to form a last- 

 ing history of the controversj% and a guide for future 

 decisions in similar cases. The various passages from 

 abstruse and obsolete writers cited in the course of the 

 case have been verified and collated — and reference to 

 them facilitated by noting the editions used — while the 

 judgments in the Consistory and Arches Court have been 

 collated by the editor, and the formal judgment of the 

 Judicial Committee has been submitted to the learned 

 judge by whom it was delivered. It need scarcely be 

 added, therefore, that Mr. Moore's volume forms a very 

 complete record of these important cases. 



Mr. Bohn has just appeared in a new character — that 

 of ?n author. \Ve presume that if he does not share the 

 sorrows of those sung by Pope, who — 



"... when rich China vessels fall'n from high, 

 In glittering dust and painted fragments lie," — 



are ready with screams of horror to rend the affrighted 

 skies — he shares their admiration for the beautiful forms 

 and rich hues which the clay assumes under the hand of 

 the artist: and therefore, that having become the pur- 

 chaser of the woodcuts of the Bernal Catalogue, he felt 

 he should be doing good service to those who share his 

 taste by reprinting that Catalogue with additional in- 

 formation. The volume so produced is entitled A Guide 

 to the Knowledge of Pottery, Porcelain, and other Objects 

 of Virtu, comprising an Illustrated Catalogue of the Bernal 

 Collection of Works of Art, with the Prices at which they 

 were sold by Auction, and the Names of the present Pro- 

 prietors, to which are added an Introductory Essay on 

 Pottery and Porcelain, and an engraved List of Marks and 

 Monograms, by Henry G. Bohn. When we" add to this 

 ample title-page that the work is illustrated by numerous 

 wood engravings, we have done all that can be required 

 to show its value and utility. 



As we have, we believe, already remarked, Lord Camp- 

 bell's Lives of the Lord Chancellors increases in interest 

 as it approaches its close. Our sympathies are more with 

 men who lived in our own times — while Lord Campbell's 

 narratives are fuller of personal anecdote and personal 

 reminiscences. The ninth volume, which has just been 

 issued, concludes the Life of Lord Erskine, and carries 



that of his great successor, John Earl of Eldon, down to 

 the death of George the Third.

 severe in their intrusion into Kent, they will render themselves liable to 

 the suspicion of being actuated by some other motives than a love of 

 science.
