A costly monument, designed and executed 
by Bacon, will soon be placed in the recess 
of the northern transept of Lichfield cathe¬ 
dral, to the memory of the late Miss Sew¬ 
ard. The intention is to represent filial 
piety, by a female figure, weeping over the 
tomb of parents and relatives, and the poet’s 
neglected harp hanging upon a willow. The 
inscriptiuns following shew the application of 
ihese symbols: 
,Anna Sewar d died March 25,1809,aged 66. 
By her order tliis monument is erected 
To the Memory 
«f her Father, the Rev.Thomas Seward, M.A. 
Canon residentiary of this Cathedral, 
who died March 1790, aged Sl-j 
Of her mother, Elizabeth bis wire, 
daughter of the Rev. fohn Hunter, 
who died July 1780, aged 66 j 
And 
®f her Sister Sarah, their youngest daughter, 
who died June 1764, aged 20. 
Amid these aisles, where once his precepts 
showed 
The Heavenward path-way which in life he 
trode, 
This simple tablet marks a Father’s bier ; 
And those he lov’d in life in death are near j 
For him, for them, a daughter bade it risp 
Memorial of domestic charities. 
tScill v/ould you know why o’er the marble 
spread, 
In female grace the willow droops her head j 
"Why on her branches, silent and unstrung, ‘ 
The minstrel harp, is emblematic hung, 
What Poet’s'voice is smother’d here in dust 
Till waked to join the chorus of the just, 
Lo ! one brief line an answer sad supplies, 
Honour’d, beloved, and mourned, here Seaward 
lies. 
Her worth, her warmth of heart, our sorrows 
say,— 
Go seek her genius in her llvjng lay.

At a late numerous .liid respectable meeting 
of the inhabitants of Birmingha.m, couvenad 
by the high bailiff, at the public office, in pur¬ 
suance of a requisition for that purpose, it was 
resolved,—That a memorial from this town 
and neighbourhood be presented to the com¬ 
mittee of the Lords of the Privy Council, 
praying that a new copper coinage of penny 
and half?-penny pieces directed to be is-, 
filled. 
MEMORIAL. 
To the Right Hotiourahle the Lords of tloe Com¬ 
mittee His Majesty's most HviowaLle Pti-v^ 
Council. 
The memorial of the inhabitants of the 
town and n-iglibourhood of Birmingham, 
sheweth, that the trade of this town tina 
neighuourhood sufrereth great and serious 
evils from the want of small change, where¬ 
with to pay the manufacturers in the different 
branches of the trade. 
That there are, in this town and neigh¬ 
bourhood, many thousands of persons, whoss 
weekly labour does not produce more thats 
from three to ten shillings, and that their 
employers being compelled to pay several of 
them together in pound notes, they are un¬ 
der the necessity of going to public hoiises to 
get change, where, of course, some of the 
money must be spent to induce the publican 
to supply them thcrcv/ith, or they must buy 
some articles which tliey do not want, or, in 
many cases, must take the articles o( food on 
credit at an extravagant price, paying tor the 
same when what they have had amounts to a. 
pound. ' 
That the issue of Bank tokens, although o'f 
great and essential service, is by no means 
adequate to the remedy of the .evil. An3 
your memorialists,' therefore, most earnestly 
request that your Lordships will speedily ci¬ 
der a coinage ot copper penny and half penny 
pieces, which would effectually remove the 
evil they labour under.”
