MINOR CORRESPONDENCE.

J. T. M. says, "In the Autobiography of Theobald Wolfe Tone (vol. i. p. 358) it is stated, that during the war (i. e. before the peace of Amiens) only one of our generals was killed, that his name was Mansel, and that he was an Irishman. The passage in question was written before the death of Sir Ralph Abercromby, but is the statement correct in other respects? There was a General Mansel killed in that war, at Valenciennes (I believe), and he was of a Glamorganshire family, and resided at Cosgrave, in Northamptonshire. The late Major Mansel of Cosgrave was his son.

Did Tone confound him with the Mansels of the county Limerick, or were there two General Officers of that name, killed in the same war ???

R. T. would be thankful to be informed whether the copies of Clynne's Annals, of the Annals of the Priory of St. John the Evangelist of Kilkenny, and of the Annals of Multifernon, Rosse, Clonmel, &c. which Ware (in his Preface to Campion) says that the Earl of Marlborough "caused to be transcribed and made fit for the presse," are now known to exist. Abp. Nicolson states that the Earl of Marlborough deposited a Transcript of Clynne's Annals in the hands of Henry Earl of Bath, on condition they should be printed. Any information respecting any copy of any of the above named Annals will be acceptable.

We are obliged to our correspondent W. H. for his communication respecting the discovery of coins of Henry III. but from the drawings forwarded it is impossible to pronounce with certainty whether the specimens referred to in his letter are different from the published coins of that King, and of Henry V. or IV. although they appear to be common and well known types. Impressions in sealing-wax are always preferable to drawings. Perhaps our correspondent could favour us with a sight of the entire hoard of coins, in which there possibly may be rare or inedited varieties.

We cannot further assist D. P. R. then by referring him to Blakeway's Sheriffs of Shropshire, fol. 1831.

A Correspondent from Newport Pagnell writes us that, about ten years ago, a Painting of St. Christopher, as well as one on a subject unknown, was discovered in the neighbouring parish church of Ravenstone.

At

A. L. asks "May not St. Clement's Danes be a corruption of St. Clement des Dunes, which would mean St. Clement of the Sands, Shore, or Strand? Boulogne sur Mer there is la Porte des Dunes-the sea, as report goes, having anciently been much nearer to these gates than it now is."

S. Y. S. points out the deficiency of a work (which he has not leisure to undertake himself), to contain brief memoirs of all the Archbishops and Bishops of England since the Reformation as settled in 1559. These memoirs should not be too long, but about the length of those given of the Irish Prelates in Harris' edition of Ware, 1739. I would suggest to any person, who should undertake the subject, not to forget to give the dates of consecration (and the places), and of translation and death in every case; and the names of the Bishops who consecrated each prelate. The following hints, as to a few of the Books necessary in the work, may be useful. Dr. W. Richardson's edition (1743) of Bp. Godwin's "De Præsulibus Angliæ;" Le Neve's "Fasti Ecclesiæ Anglicanæ," for the dates, &c.; Le Neve's lives of the Protestant Archbishops; Browne Willis's English Cathedrals, 4to, and four Welsh Cathedrals, 8vo. (also Edwards' edition of B. Willis' St. Asaph as it is carried down to 1806); A. Wood's Athenæ Oxonienses (Bliss' edition); Fuller's Worthies, Nichols's edition; Britton's Cathedrals; S. H. Cassan's Lives of the Bps. of Winchester, Salisbury, Bath and Wells; the several county histories which notice Cathedrals; the obituary of the Gentleman's Magazine, &c. &c. For the records of consecration of all our Bishops down to 1841, I beg to refer any person who is inclined for the subject to the Appendix to Hon. and Rev. A. P. Perceval's Apology for Apostological Succession. (Rivington) The records are copied from the Lambeth and other registers. Memoirs of many living prelates are given in the Church Magazine."

At page 363-in the note for Caloranéde, read Calprenéde; and at page 879, 2nd column, line 22, for Wallis, read Hadder. We have to correct the notice of erratum in our last, p. 338; the gentleman whose name should have been printed in p. 312 is John Audley Jee, esq. (not Hill). P. 423, line 4, for Ellitson, read Elletson; line 6, for Zealand, read Yealand.
