HEREFORDSHIRE. 
Lately, as some workmen belonging to Mr. Mat~- 
thews, of Hallen, Herefordshire, were removing the 
root of an oak-tree, at Morcle, they came to a wall, 
which, being uncovered, proved to be the remains of 
the ancient chapel, which, during the convulsion of 
the Morcle Hills, in the ‘year 1575, was ingulphed in 
the chasm or fissure created by the partial earth- 
quake, which has been so variously described by 
historians. The door, or gate-way, is perfect; the 
wall is about three feet in thickness, and is con- 
siderably inclined in its position. 
There is now at Foxley, near Hereford, a beauti- 
ful Japanese rose, twelve feet in height, bearing on 
one side red, and on the other white roses. In the 
same mansion is also a fine damosel bird, confessedly 
fifty years old, fed, if not bred, in this country; and 
a macaw, with pale gold top-knot, who has likew’se 
perched half a century.

GLOUCESTER AND MONMOUTH. 
In excavating the ground for garden walls and 
back offices, to enclose some new buildings called 
‘© Partis’s College,” near the two-mile stone on the 
upper Bristol road, two freestone coffins were dis- 
covered, about sixteen inches under the surface of 
the earth, and about thirty yards apart. One of 
them measured six feet six inches long, the other 
six feet. The former contained a part only of a large 
skeleton, andthe latter a perfect one. Several other 
unenclosed skeletons were found, which are sup- 
posed to have lain in their depositories several cen- 
turies. Some ancient coins have likewise been found 
on the spot. é 
On March 4, a fire broke out at East-court, Charl- 
ton, near Cheltenham, the seat of Alexander Ni- 
cholson, esq. which burnt for a considerable time 
with great fury, consuming all the upper rooms and 
the roof, the melted lead from which ran down in 
torrents. The pipe of the hall-stove is supposed to 
have caused the fire.
