In decayed the reservoir for the Col- 
chester water- works, some vestiges of Roman 
baths were lately found. Since that period, 
in proceeding with the works, the workmen 
fell in with a quantity of Roman pavement, 
and, what is extraordinary, beneath that some 
oak framing, almost perfectly’sound, although’ 
it must have Jaid there above a thousand 
years. By inspection, it appears that it had 
been previously charred, as the crust was on 
it when first dug up. It is therefore evident, 
that charring of timber, to make it last un- 
der ground, was known to the Romans.— 
Amidst some fragments of porcelain found, 
was one vessel of most exquisite workman- 
ship and classical taste, the outside of which 
was highly embossed with basso relievo, di- 
vided into different departments, in two of 
which were Diana and Faunus, on pedestals 
facing each other, Diana, in her left hand, 
holds a boy, and in the right the two fore- 
feet of a leveret, standing in an upright 
posture against her. The attitude of Faunus. 
is nearly that of the antique Antinous; a 
wreath of a mask and plumes of feathers hang 
between the two. In two other departments 
are the stags at bay with the dogs. Between 
this department, and the before-described, is 
a long upright one, with a tripod in the cen- 
tre, and an Eagle hovering uver the flame, 
with a plume of feathers erect on its back. 
In two other departments are Cupid sacrific- 
ing, in the act of pouring something from a 
vessel on the altar; round the border of this 
department is studded with imitations of dia- 
dems; in two other departments are repre- 
sented the great wild bear passant, capitally 
executed ; towards the cornice, or towards the 
upper edge or Opening of the vessel, is a rich 
canopy, ornamented all round; on the bot 
tom and sides of the departments are plumes 
of feathers studded with ornaments like mace. 
It is nearly the colour of dark cornelian, has 
‘been hardened by fire, and is almost as dense 
as flit. Most of the coins dug up are of 
Claudius, Czxsar Augustus, and others of the 
Emperor Trajanus, Antoninus Pius, and Divus 
Antoninus, and many others hardly distin - 
‘ guishable from their state of corrosion, also © 
silver gilt instruments used in the sacrifices.
