LINCOLNSHIRE... ‘ 
Scme persons who were engaged in digging 
on Deeping Common, near Stamford, disco- - 
vered a perfect human skeleton, about 16 
inches below the surface, and near it an ear- 
then pot, containing 782 Roman coins. ‘They 
are all about the size of farthings: a few are 
the coins of Augustus, Tiberius, and the first 
Claudius, and consequently are more than 
1700 years old 5 but the irregularity of the 
exergue makes it difficult by the legend to de~ 
termine. Around the head (the impress) of 
one of the plainest, ee to sae TET) 35 
is the following : ~

ingly clearand correct. The. matrix in which 
it was stamped may, without Carrying vene-

the most finished and beautiful of the present |

There are few persons who have ever visit- 
ed Lincoln that will not feel regret-at the in- 
formation that it has been at length finally 
determined to remove from that noble pile, 
the cathedral, the two spires. which surmount 
St. Hugh’s and St. Mary’s | towers. About 
four years ago this measure was suggested, on 
the ground that the strength of the towers 
was insufficient ta the weight of the spires: 
but the object of the levellets was at that. 
time frustrated, by the towers being put into 
astate or repair fully equal to the support of 
tie burthen upon them.—-A new and more 
successful plea is now advanced; and the 
Spires are to be taken down because forsooth — 
they are not old enough! ‘It is alledged that
