Died.] At Bawburgh, near Norwich, in his 82nd year, John Wagstaffe, one of the society of friends. He was born at Overtou in Hampshire. At the early age of ten years he was placed as an apprentice to a baker in the metropolis: where, during those leisure hours which even the busiest may create, he laid the foundation of that scientific respectability which he afterwards attained. His education being extremely limited and narrow, afforded no presage of ripening talents. But his ardent attachment to literature enabled him successfully to combat every obstacleopposed to its advancement."Genius, "as defined by the biographer of Sir W. Jones, "is the power of application" this power he possessed in an eminent degree, and the reward of his assi⚫ duity, extensive knowledge improved by habitual thought, affords a source of encouragement to the similarly circumstaneed in life. At the expiration of his apprenticeship, he settled in Norwich. An indefatigable attention to the concerns of business and the cares of a family engaged the greater portion of his time; his industry and econo-, iny securing a praiseworthy independence and affording an ample provision for the comforts of old age. This, as well as every subsequent period of his life still afforded a retreat from the avocations of business, and enabled him to pursue his love of science and the liberal arts. Like the Edwin of Beattie, he delighted to wander in the paths of poesy. "Song was his favourite and first pursuit,"and afforded a peculiar relish to his powers of retirement. One of his poems entitled "Stonehenge," and inscribed to his friend and neighbour Edward Jerninghain, esq. contains some noble reflections on that venerable pile of ruins, and was well received by the public. Natural philosphy engaged his early and continued attention. From a frequent correspondence with the Bath Agricultural Society, he was elected one of its honorary members, and gratuitously presented with a copy of its works. He was among the earliest and most arduous promoters of the setting of wheat, which now so greatly and beneficially prevails. In various branches of horticulture and planting he was eminently versed, and possessed a well grounded knowledge of botany, entomology and other departments of natural instory. His mind, expanded by liberal cultivation, exhibited a brilliancy and compass of imagination, united with a vigour of understafiding rarely possessed, and fully exemplified the remark of Dr. Johnson, that, "a tradesman, by the economy of time and a devotion of his leisure hours to study, may become, if not a learned, at least a very useful and sensible

man."

Of his social character, chearfulness, strict integrity, and active benevolence were leading traits. His morality was that of the Christian dispensation; and his life devoted to virtuous and honourable occupations was rewarded with a peaceful close and a happy earnest of unfading immortality.

ESSEX.

In excavating the reservoir for the Colchester 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 eak framing, almost perfectly sound, although is must have laid there above a thousand years. By inspection, it appears that it had bera previously charred, as the crust was on it when first dug up. It is therefore evident, that charring of timber, to make it last under ground, was known to the Romans.Amidst some fragments of porcelain found, was one vessel of most exquisite workmanship and classical taste, the outside of which was highly embossed with basso relievo, divided 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 forefeet 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 stays at bay with the dogs. Between this department, and the before-described, is long upright one, with a tripod in the centre, and an Eagle hovering over the flame, with a plume of feathers erect on its back. In two other departments are Cupid sacrificing, in the act of pouring something from a Tessel on the altar; round the border of this department is studded with imitations of diadems; in two other departments are represented the great wild bear passant, capitally executed; towards the cornice, or towards the apper edge, ar opening of the vessel, is a rich canopy, ornamented all round; on the bot tam and sides of the departments are plumes of feathers studded with ornaments like mace. It is early the colour of dark cornelian, has been hardened by fire, and is almost as dense 41 fint. Most of the coins dag up are of Claudius, Cesar Augustus, and others of the Emperor Trajanus, Antoninus Pius, and Divus Axtoninus, and many others hardly distinTushable from their state of corrosion, also silver gilt instruments used in the sacrifices. *** Monthly MAG., No. 181.
