classification and arrangement, and we cannot but feel sorry that 
English scholars and antiquaries should not have been beforehand 
in this very important national historical labour. 
In an article in the Journal of the Archeological Association 
for June, 1875, I have given a summary of the Roman remains 
found at Charterhouse up to that time, (see “ Notes on the roads, 
camps, and mining operations of the Romans in the Mendip Hills,” 
p. 141), also a list of the coins which had come under my notice. 
Since then other objects have come to light, and a small 
cabinet of Roman coins found in Mendip, on and around the 
ancient Roman workings, has been formed by Mr. Hill, lately High 
Sheriff of Bristol, and his brother Colonel Hill, amongst them is 
a fine ancient British coin, but no Saxon coins have yet been 
discovered. 
Several small red Cornelian seals with devices on them, have also 
been found at Charterhouse and along the Mendip Hills. The 
devices on which are very elegant, of these I have taken impress-

woman at Rowberrow some years ago. Roman weights made of 
lead, either cubes, or globular with the ends flattened, and 
indented with holes to mark the weight, 1. 2. 3. 4. ounces; 
leaden marbles, like bullets, one of these has a small hole, and is 
hollow to a certain extent to allow of a thread being inserted, it 
seems to have been used as a weight; and “ glandes” or sling 
missils have been found, and preserved at the Charterhouse 
smelting mill, where the collection is becoming extensive, and 
was very neatly arranged for exhibition by the agent Mr. Rogers 
on the visit of the British Association. 
Larger leaden weights of various size and form, weighing 
1b. 100z. 5lbs. loz. 26/bs. 1202., clay or earthen crucibles, of a 
circular form, 3 inches high by 2 in width, and 2 inches high by 
1 in width. Five Horse shoes quite perfect, a valuable accession 
to the small number yet found in this country, of these I have 
made careful drawings and measurements. The nails remain in two
