will be allowed by every candid mind, that a nobler field of enquiry could not have been found within our own immediate limits." Thus is the author's great design at once felo de fe. A work capable of furnithing materials for many volumes is to be crouded into ONE, and to borrow South Wales and Scotland for its fupporters. On the execution of this defign is to depend the invettigation of two regions of the globe, one never explored by any mortal, and with the trifling and comparatively unimportant refearches in the other we are far from refting fatisfied. To raise a fund for this execution is the apology There is juft fuch an amphora fhewn for the mode of publication here adoptin the locker of the abbey-church at St.ed, to which Mr. F. has in fome deAlban's, and engraved in the laft edition of Camden's Britannia (Herts), as that from Suffolk, p. 1006.

P. Q.

Dec. 20.

IN the prefent diffufion of topogra-
phical defcription, how unfortunate
is the county of York, with fuch ex-
cellent and copious materials, to have
twice failed of being brought to the
birth. Of Dr. Townfon's effort you
will recollect what was faid in vol.
LXXII. p. 702; and now Mr. Fother-
gill, who feveral years ago formed a
refolution to engage in its natural and
civil hiftory, whofe fituation as a na-
tive of the county, and a refident in one
of the fairest parts of that fair province,
could not but prove highly advantage
ous to the purfuit, and who continued
to labour in the undertaking till it be
came neceffary for him to change his
refidence, and till he found Dr. Town-
fon had embarked in the fame under-
taking, and had obtained fo much pa-
tronage that the fuccefs of a rival work
was rendered improbable-Mr. F, in
fhort, yielded to Dr. T.; and his "pa-
pers were allowed to remain by me
without arrangement, and in their pre-
fent rude ftate, till I had added confi-
derably to their number by a journey
through Scotland, and a late vifit to fe-
veral parts of South Wales." With all
this enlargement, the county of York,
"the province in queftion (for whofe
wealth or extent, whether natural or
artificial, many a petty Sovereign of
Europe might imagine himfelf peculi-
arly bleffed of Heaven, were it in his
power to exchange his own dominions
for a country of fo much more import-
ance in every political point of view,) it

gree been compelled by the certainty of incurring expences in the execution of this work which are of no fmall importance even before it can be at all prepared for public inspection." The first divifion of the work, occupying the first volume, will be divided into fections: 1. analysis; 2. antiquities; 3. biography; 4. agriculture; 5. quadrupeds; 6. birds; 7. fifh; 8. reptiles; 9. infects; 10. literature as connected with natural hiftory; 11. divifion of the work, containing remarks, obferva tions, and researches, made in feveral parts of England, Scotland, and Wales. The whole is to be illuftrated with not lefs than 20 and not more than 30 plates.

Such, Mr. Urban, is the way in the which we are at length to be brought acquainted with all that is interefting in the county of York !!! D. H.

In a zeal for the Church, in Piety,
Integrity, Honefty, Difinterestedness,
And a constant Regularity of Life and
Manners.
