A observes, the "emblazoned pedigree" of Sir Horace Mann, traced out by the research of Mr. Chute, is so frequently alluded to by Walpole, in his lately published Letters, that you will, perhaps, allow me to offer a correction of the maternal descents as given in the Baronetages, and even in the trusty archives of the College of Arms.

The mother of Sir Horace is affirmed to have been Eleanor, the daughter of Christopher Guise, of Abbot's Court, in the county of Gloucester (3d son of Henry Guise, of Winterborne, son of William Guise, of Elmore, in the same county, and brother of the first Baronet) by Elizabeth, "daughter of Colonel Long, of Whaddon, Wilts." This marriage I believe to be erroneous; no female of the name of Elizabeth appears, in the first place, in the pedigree of the Longs of Whaddon; neither in the second is there a record of any marriage with any one of the name of Guise. But a marriage with Guise does appear in another branch of the Longs, viz. in that resident at Lyneham, in Wiltshire, and which was a junior branch of the family of Wraxall and Draycot. Oliver Long, son of Edmund Long, of Lyneham, died in Ireland in 1716; and in his will he mentions his sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Guise, widow. I am, therefore, of opinion that this lady was the Mrs. Guise in question, and the daughter of Edmund Long, of Lyneham. I also take this Oliver Long, her brother, to be the same as Capt. Oliver Long, who was one of the attainted in Ireland in 1689. Oliver Long's (the testator's) property descended to a John Long Bateman, son of Colonel Bateman, who died in 1744.

P. J. remarks, that in Lacey's Life of Erasmus, abridged from Jortin, p. 286, he has found the following passage:— "At Louvain (A. D. 1527) was a person, who, to render Erasmus contemptible, gave out with great confidence, that he was, as to learning a dunce, and as to religion a heretic; and that a poor hungry Scot, who had pretended to teach in that University, had a hundred times more learning than he." Probably some of your many erudite readers can tell the name of the learned North Briton alluded to. It has, I believe, been said, that the sweating sickness was peculiar

to this country; but it appears from this work, p. 329, that the sweating sickness raged in Germany in 1530.

T. E. S. remarks, "In the review of Greene's works in the Gentleman's Magazine for March last, at the lines,

"What then hath man, wherein he well · may boast,

Since by a beck he lives, a lour is lost?"

the reviewer is of opinion, that "flower" is the true reading. May I be allowed to hint, that "lour," as it stands in the last

edition, is correct. In the south of Kent, the word is always understood to mean something dark, gloomy, and in many instances is used instead of "frown," which I think will explain the meaning exactly; that man lives by the "beck" of God, and is lost at his displeasure."

G. begs to inquire where the Cartulary of the Priory of St. John's, Colchester, is preserved. It was formerly in the possession of the Hardwicke family, but does not appear to be at present either in the hands of Earl Hardwicke or Earl de Grey.

FITZ-ROSE inquires, " Can any of your Correspondents inform me as to the heir presumptive of the Barony of Sherard of Leitrim. Is he to be found amongst the family of Sherard, now or formerly of Carr Coulston, co. Notts, or amongst the Sherards of Glatton ?"

Of the drawings sent by "A Constant Reader and Admirer," the first (representing the King on his throne) is a leaden seal or stamp attached to woollen cloths, on their paying duty, in the time of one of the Edwards; the second is a coin of Geneva; the third, a penny of Æthelwulf, will be found engraved in Ruding; 400 or 500 similar coins were found at Dorking some years since

We beg to acknowledge the communications of the Rev. Mr. Oliver; Mr. Barnes; A. P.; J. T.; H. B.; H. H.; Fitz-Rose; Roger de Hoveden; and Antiquarius; which are unavoidably deferred. The communications of H. S. and T. R. B. are declined.
