June 20. At Ipswich, aged 76, George Stebbing, gent. an eminent surgeon. To the period of his final illness, which conti-' nued nearly a year, no man of his age was more active in person or buoyant in spirit. Ardently attached to his gun, his ruling passion lasted till he could carry one no longer; and his love of flowers, in the cultivation of which he excelled, was a passion which he cherished to his end. But some of these innocent pursuits withdrew his attention from his numerous patients, whenever his presence was required. In a convivial party he was always a welcome guest; and in proof of professional skill, it may be truly said, that no medical man ever obtained, from all ranks, a higher degree of confidence.

MINOR CORRESPONDENCE.

Some strange revolutions are now transpiring among the Reviews and Magazines. The British Critic has ceased as a Monthly, and is proposed to be continued as a Quarterly Review. Knight's Quarterly Magazine appears this month as the first number of a New Series. The European Magazine, which, since the death of Mr. Asperne, has been sadly thrown from pillar to post, (no publisher apparently succeeding in realizing any profit from it,) last month, as a sequel to its recent boastings, appeared not in the land of the living. 1t now comes forth also as the first of a New Series, promising, as an excuse for its late remissness, to favour the public with a double number (a thing never before heard of) on some future calends. This trifling with customers never succeeds; -the Somerset House Gazette, in which the Museum and Literary Register had merged, stopped at the leaf-falling period of last year, promising to shoot forth with fresh vigour in the Spring-we need scarcely add that it never did. It amuses us in our old age to watch the gambols of our remotest descendants!

J. D. remarks, "in the Appendix to the 2d vol. of Banks's Dormant and Extinct Baronage, attached to the Stemmata Anglicana, recently published by the same author, I perceive mention made (at p. 15) that the ancient Barony of Lisle is at present under claim; on which he remarks (at p. 18) that the Claimant has not noticed Robert, the son of the celebrated Dudley Earl of Leicester, by his wife the Lady Douglas Howard, which Robert was created a Duke in Italy, and married Alice the daughter of Sir Thomas Leigh, and had issue several daughters, who upon their mother being created Duchess Dudley, had precedence granted them, of the children of a Duke. The legitimacy of this Robert, which was so strongly contended against by interested parties, was afterwards allowed by King James the First, to be manifest, as well as the injustice done to him.-In Nichols's Leicestershire there is mention of a 3d sister to the last Sydney Earl of Leicester married to a Foreigner. Provided she had issue, would not her representatives be co-heirs to the Barony with Sir John Shelley Sydney?"

succeeded him in 1680, and that his brother William had the estate of Newnham in Hertfordshire. He had two wives, the 1st Mary, dau. of Howard, Esq. with whom he had a considerable fortune, &c. And 2dly, Anne, youngest dau. of Sir Thos. Hooke of Tangier Park House, Hants. Bart. and had issue.

[ocr errors]

-Sir Henry Chauncy, in his Hertfordshire, also says, that the Manor of Newnham was given by Sir Wm. Dyer to his 2nd son, who married Mary Howard, and after her decease, Anne, sister of Sir Hele Hooke, Bart. son of Sir Thomas."

In reply to "An Old Subscriber," the same Correspondent observes, "Sir Thos. Hooke was of a very ancient family, formerly seated at Bramshot, co. Hants. and the son of a Gentleman of the same Christian name, who married Mary, a dau. of Nicholas Hele, of Easton in Gordon, alias St. George, co. of Somerset, Esq. He (Sir Thos.) married Elizabeth, only dau. of Sir Wm. Thomson, Knt. and Alderman of the City of London, and by her had the Baronet who succeeded him, and three daus. Elizabeth, Mary, and Anne. Elizabeth married Thos. Grove of Fern, co. Wilts, Esq.; Mary married Wm. Hammond of Whitton, co. Suffolk, and Anne, as above, all leaving issue. Sir Hele, the second and last Baronet, married Hester, dau. of - Underhill, Citizen and Grocer of London, by whom he had issue two sons, Hele and Thomas, who both died young, and one dau. Elizabeth. He also dying at an early period of life, his widow married a Mr. Richard Lilly of Kensington. Her death is recorded in the Gentleman's Mag. for 1733. There is a very curious Latin epitaph inscribed on the tomb of Sir Thomas Hooke, Bart. in Woolton Church, Hants. in which Parish Tangier Park House is situated.

and E.D. H. (see part i. pp. 608, 482) for S. R. M. feels much obliged to D.A. Y. their communications relative to the family of Bloundevill. The issue of Rowland Meyricke and Elizabeth Bloundeville were Bloundeville Meyricke, Gelly Meyricke, and Margaret Meyrick. The second left issue an only daughter married to one of the Norris family related to the Earl of Abingdon. Can either of these Correspondents state the descendants of Bloundevill Meyricke, and whether he or they resided in Norfolk, and unA GENEALOGIST says, "your Correspond-til how late a period? S. R. M. would be ent, Mr. YATES of Birmingham, is incorrect in his statement, part i. p. 482, that Wm. Dyer, who married Anne, the youngest dau. of Sir Thomas Hooke, Bart. was not a brother of Sir John Swinnerton Dyer, Bart. but his Great Uncle.-Collins, in his Baronetage, states that Sir John Swinnerton Dyer, eldest son of the 1st Baronet (Sir William)

much obliged for such information, and for where the proofs of what is already communicated are to be found.

ERRATA.-P. ii. p. 94, 1. 17, for some, read none; 3 from bottom, Handsworth is in Staffordshire.
