In our number for January we propose to lay before our Readers a fine bird's eye View of the intended St. Katharine's Docks, with a circumstantial detail of the design of that immense public undertaking.

The helmet depicted by an ADMIRER of ANTIQUES, which was found in Stanwell Churchyard, Middlesex, is a demilauncer's casque of the time of Elizabeth. The bars and chin-piece, of which he speaks, were affixed for the purpose of placing it over a monument; now that they are removed, it is restored to its original state. The catch or rivet at the top was put on at the same time as the bars, in order to hold the crest, and, like them, were foreign to its original purpose.

T. R. WEETON is referred, for the present, to several elaborate Essays on Surnames, by Dr. Pegge the antiquary, in vol. XLII.; also to vol. XLIV. p. 252, and some other places mentioned in our General Indexes. An analysis of Verstegan's "Restitution of Decayed Intelligence" was printed in vol. LXXXI. ii. 18. A small volume on Names, by Mr. Brady, is reviewed in vol. xc. i. 437.

The Medallion of Pescennius Niger, sent by our kind Correspondent J. L. is a very bad one, and being known to be false, is of little or no value. J. L. appears to have formed an erroneous opinion, when he states that such spurious pieces are held by Medallists in a certain degree of estimation. The contrary is the fact.

T. ROE

66 says, Antiquarius (p. 194), is referred to Dugdale's Baronage,' vol. 11. p. 139, et seq. for much information respecting the noble family of West de la War. The principal residence of Thomas Lord de la War, in the early part of the reign of Henry VIII. was Offington in the parish of Broadwater in Sussex. This nobleman, by his will, dated 8 Oct. 17 Hen. VIII. bequeathed his body to be buried in the tombe of freestone, within the chancel of the Church of Broadwater. This tomb, like most others in country Churches, was so defaced with coats of whitewash, as to have lost all its original beauty, until the late Hon. Mrs. Damer, (who was connected with the family of De la War) employed herself in chiselling out the accumulated coats of whitewash, and restoring it to its former freshness. Thomas Lord La War, son of the above, was also buried in the Church of Broadwater; but the arms and ornaments on his tomb are yet buried in whitewash. He married Elizabeth, heiress of- Benville of Haloaker in Sussex. In the Church of Boxgrove, in which parish Halnaker is situated, is a magnificent sepulchral oratory or sacellum, in which a priest used to pray for the souls of himself and his wife. The two tombs at Broadwater, and this at Boxgrove,

are probably the work of the same artist, being most interesting examples of that style of architecture where the Grecian is engrafted in the Gothic. In the ancient house of Halnaker (of which see a view in vol. LXXXII. i. 409), and which is almost now a ruin, are some most curious remains; a room yet exists of carved wainscoat, in which are figures of King Henry VIII. and Queen Catherine, of Thomas Lord De la War and his wife, together with various armorial bearings. This is now used as a bed-room by the cottager, who occupies the few remaining rooms in this once magnificent mansion, and seldom seen unless particularly enquired after. It is among the most interesting remains of domestic architecture with which the writer of this hasty note is acquainted. The estate at Halnaker was exchanged with the Crown for the site of the Abbey of Wherwell in Hampshire, during the lifetime of this Thomas Lord De la War; and the estate of Offington was alienated early in the reign of Elizabeth to Edward Alford.— A Stanstead Correspondent, who signs "PATRUM VIRTUS," remarks, that "the family of Ware, though the title was conveyed to the West family by the first-born female, was perpetuated by a younger son. A descendant went into Ireland with Earl Fitzwilliam, when Lord Lieutenant, as confidential Secretary, and is highly mentioned in history."

A CORRESPONDENT observes, "in p. 372, Lord Langford is stated to have been created Baron Rowley. This is an error adopted from p. 1138 of the last Edition of Debrett's Peerage; his Lordship's only title of Peerage was Baron Langford of Summerhill."

The same Correspondent says, "Lord Lilford's title is Baron Lilford, co. Northampton, without any other addition; it was incorrect, therefore, in page 275 to style his Lordship "Baron Lilford of Lilford Park, and of Atherton and Bewsey, co. Lancaster." The latter places were his Lordship's property, but made no part of his Baronial title.

Since the letter of Mr. Milne, in p. 496, was printed, that Gentleman has addressed us, saying that, upon reflection, he would write the name of his parish Sweyn-Denmark. It would still be pronounced Swedenmark.

We received the favour alluded to by our kind Correspondent from Magellegan.
