YORKSHIRE. 
At the late annual meeting of the subscri- 
bers to the General Subscription Library at 
Hull, held in the Library Room, it appeared 
that the number of subscribers was 462 ; and 
that the sum expended during the last year in 
books amounted to 4211. 
A petition has been presented to the Lord 
Mayor and Corporation of York, signed by 
most of the inhabitants in Walmgate, and 
by many respectable gentlemen and farmers 
in the country, who attend the sheep market 
or fair in that city, stating the great incon- 
venience they experience “from such market 
being held in a part of the town so very ill 
suited for the purpose, and requesting that a 
more commodious situation be appointed 
wherein the market or fair may in future be 
held. From the readiness manifested upon 
all occasions by the Corporation, to promote 
any plan, that has for its object the conve- 
nience of the public, there can be no doubt 
but the prayer of the petition will be com- 
plied with, and thus a considerable nuisance 
removed. 
Some workmen lately digging the foundation 
ofa house, near the Mount, without Mickle- 
gate-bar, York, broke intoa vault, built of 
stone, and arched over with Roman bricks; the 
length of the vault was 8 feet;the height 6 
feet, and breadth 5 feet. A coffin of coarse 
rag stone was found in it, covered witha flag 
of blue stone, about 7 feet long, 3 feet 2 
inches wide, 4 inches thick, and 1 foot 9 
inches deep, containing a human skeleton en- 
tire, with the teeth complete, supposed to 
be the remains of a Roman lady. Near the 
skull lay two glass phials. or lacrymatories, 
one of them appeared to be inlaid with silver. 
At some little distance from the vault was 
discovered a Roman urn, perfectly entire, in 
which were deposited, according to the Ro- 
man custom, the ashes and bones, partly 
burnt, of a human body.
