Victory in chariot (triga) to right; above the chariot, numerals occur on different specimens from VIII. to CCVIII. (These are only what I have seen, others higher or lower may exist). This coin is struck, between B.C. 82 and B.c. 80, by a magistrate of the name of Caius Nævius Balbus. He is totally unknown;. but from numismatic evidence, must have been in power with two other magistrates, Quintus Antonius Balbus (see Cohen, Médailles Consulaires, pl. iii., Antonia I.), and Tiberius Claudius (Cohen, pl. xii., Claudia III.): the first of whom was prætor to Marius, circ. B.C. 82; and the latter is known to have had a place in the senate in B.C. 63 (Sallust, Cat. 50; Appian, Bell. Civ., ii. 5). The coin in question is engraved in Cohen, pl. xxix. The "rude and deep notch round the edge," was probably made to test the purity of the silver. Coin so notched were called serrati (Tac. Germ., 5). The Empress Cornelia Gnæa is usually called Cornelia Supera. She is supposed to be the wife of Æmilian (A.D. 253–254). F. W. M. BOOTERSTOWN, near Dublin (2nd S. ix. 462.)— In turning over the above-named volume of "N. & Q.," I met with the inquiry of your correspondent ABHBA as to the original meaning and etymology of the name of this village. He is quite right in rejecting the absurd statement, that it was originally called Freebooterstown from its being the resort of freebooters. This is simply a falsehood. There is no evidence that it ever had the name of Freebooterstown. Nor was it ever, I believe, called Booterstown until after the formation of the Dublin and Kingstown railway. Before that time, it was always called Butterstown; and in old documents, as your correspondent correctly tells you, it is called Ballybotter, Ballyboother, Butterstown, or Botharstown, and Boterstone. The word bothar, or bothair, is a road, a street, in the Irish language: in some parts of Ireland the th is pronounced as if tt; in other parts it is slurred over, as if it was h. Thus, there is a street in Dublin called Stonybatter, the stony road; there is a Buttersfield Avenue, near Rathfarnham; Bothar mór, or the great road, is the name of the road from Tipperary to Cashel; Bothar na mac riogh (road of the king's sons) is the road from Corofin, by the Castle of Inchiquin to Killnaboy, co. Clare (Four Mast. A.D. 1573); Bothar-liac-Baislice (Grey-road of Baisleach, now Baslick), is the name of a high road leading to Baslick, in the parish of Ballintober, co. Roscommon (Four Mast., A.D. 1573, p. 1180). There are hundreds of other instances. ABHBA will, therefore, see at once the answer to his question. The high road from Dublin to Wicklow was called the Botar, or Bothar: in and about Dublin, the th was pronounced as tt. Ballybotter, therefore, or Ballybothar, was the town or village of the Bottar, or high road; and this was Englished naturally Botterstown, or Butterstown. The diminutive, Botharín (commonly pronounced Bohareen, or Boreen), is familiar to every one who has resided in the country parts of Ireland. It is a word of daily use, even in the mouths of those who can only speak the English language. It signifies a little road, a lane, or bridle road, across the fields. JAMES H. TODD. Trinity College, Dublin. SAXON SUNDIAL AT BISHOPSTON, NEAR NEWHAVEN, SUSSEX (3rd S. iv. 230.)—This is engraved in the Gentleman's Magazine for Nov. 1840, drawn and communicated by Mr. Mark Antony Lower, F.S.A., of Lewes; and in the second volume of the Sussex Archæological Collections, 1849, will be found a paper "On Bishopston church, with some general remarks on the Churches of East Sussex," by Mr. W. Figg, F.S.A., of the same town. See also the late Rev. Arthur Hussey's Churches of Kent, Sussex, and Surrey, 8vo, 1852, J. G. N. p. 198. AEROSTATION (3rd S. iv. 146, 194.) I would remind your correspondent of Darwin's remarkable lines (Economy of Vegetation, canto i. 1. 289), written probably before 1750, as exemplifying the prophetic faculty of genius in anticipating scientific discovery: "Soon shall thine arm, unconquered Steam! afar Drag the slow barge, or drive the rapid car; Or on wide-waving wings expanded bear The flying chariot through the fields of air. Their crews triumphant, leaning from above, Shall wave their fluttering kerchiefs, as they move; Or warrior bands alarm the gaping crowd, And armies shrink beneath the shadowy cloud." Contemporary critics depreciated his poetry, as eccentric and extravagant; but, as he aptly states in his "Apology": "Extravagant theories in those parts of philosophy where our knowledge is yet imperfect encourage the of ingenious deductions, to confirm or refute them: and, execution of laborious experiments, or the investigation since natural objects are allied to each other by many affinities, every kind of theoretic distribution of them adds to our knowledge by developing some of their analogies." Darwin's exquisite Rosicrucian fancy has apparently suggested several of the subsequent discoveries in natural philosophy. See his Poems, passim. J. L. Dublin. 3rd S. IV. OCT. 3, '63.] NOTES AND QUERIES. COURT COSTUMES OF LOUIS XIII. OF FRANCE (3rd S. iv. 186.)-A. D. will find numerous engravings of the costumes he wishes to see in that valuable work by J. Malliot, Recherches sur les Costumes &c. des anciens Peuples, in 3 vols. 4to. The French costumes, from the fifth century to the seventeenth inclusive, will be found in the F. C. H. third volume. PRAYERS FOR THE DEAD (3rd S. iv. 188.)-It is certain that the Catholic Church has always prayed, and still prays, for the souls of the faithful departed. What Daillé probably referred to as abolished, were probably certain prayers for the Saints, which, though unobjectionable when rightly understood, were liable to be mistaken. If we occasionally find mention of masses and offered for the saints already in bliss, they prayers must be understood as offered for this end, that by honouring the saints, we may cause them, through the mercy of God, to become intercessors for us. Such prayers have never been general, and are never now used. The saints, properly speaking, are those souls already in heaven; but those in purgatory may also be considered saints, as they are sure of heaven when their period of suffering is finished. This may also serve to explain the expression of praying for the saints in some instances. RIDDLE (3rd S. iv. 188.) F. C. H. "My first invisible as air," &c. The word Gas-light appears to me to answer pretty satisfactorily the proposed riddle. Is it the right solution ? F. C. H. DICKENS AND THACKERAY (3rd S. iv. 207.) The challenge of M. is accepted. And first as to Dickens: "Home is made happier by the works of Dickens; Of one and all the sire, the 'little chickens,' the joyous pulse he quickens." Also their dam Next, exercising the rhymer's license, and not being nice to a letter, you have the following lines on the limner of " The Four Georges": "Ah! blest relief from pages soft and sacchary; Give me the writings of that foe to quackery, The bold, the keen-eyed, entertaining Thackeray." Thus does the English language (and your correspondent) bend to the wishes of M. C. LADY'S DRESS (3rd S. iv. 238.) — Your correspondent will find the "hoop" in vogue earlier than he observes, viz. in a letter from Mrs. Delany in Jan. 1744 (her Autobiography in 3 vols. 1861, vol. ii. p. 449), she says: "There is such a variety in the manner of dress that 1 do not know what to tell you is the fashion. The only thing that seerns general are hoops of an enormous size; and most people wear vast winkers to their heads. They are now come to such an extravagance in these two par ticulars that I expect soon to see the other extreme of thread-paper heads, and no hoops; and from appearing like so many blown bladders, we shall look like so many bodkins stalking about.” I will only remark that crinoline does not seem TERES ATQUE ROTUNDUS. much of an advance upon Mrs. Delany's prognostication. "MILLER OF THE DEE" (3rd S. iv. 49, 78.) If any of your correspondents are at a loss to know the origin of the song of the "Miller of the Dee," they will find it one of the songs sung by Justice Woodcock in Bickerstaff's opera of Love in a Village, produced at Covent Garden in 1762; O.T. and which when sung by Quick was always much applauded. QUOTATION (3rd S. iv. 208.) "Les Anglais s'amusent tristement selon l'usage de leur pays,' is to be found in Sully's Memoirs, wherein he gives an account of some festivities which oc curred while he was in London. W. T. STONEHENGE (3rd S. iv. 248.)- Lieut.-Col. Francis Wilford contributed many articles to the Asiatic Researches at the end of the last century; but in some of these he admits that he had been to find in Indian history and literature explanamisled by the Pundits he employed, who professed he was anxious to solve. Even Sir William Jones tions of archæological problems of Europe which Wilford discovered was deceived in this way. the imposture in 1804, so that his prior writings must be read with caution. Sufficient is now known of Indian literature to make it highly improbable that the origin of Stonehenge is even alluded to therein. See his Essays on the Sacred Isles of the West, (As. Res. ix. 32; x. 27; xi. 11, 1805-1810), but do not implicitly trust them. T. J. BUCKTON. REGIOMONTANUS (3rd S. iv. 110, 178.) — According to Baldi, the authority for Müller is Junctinus (Giuntino). The archives of Ratisbon will was actually consecrated. It is certain that the perhaps give nothing: for it is not clear that he Pope enticed him to Rome to reform the calendar, and designated him-this is the word of Riccioli and Gassendi-Bishop of Ratisbon. Baldi has fatto; Paul Jovius has creatus. Melchior Adam does not make any allusion to the circumstance. As he died not long after his arrival at Rome, and we know nothing of the length of his last illness, it is not quite certain that he was consecrated; A. DE MORGAN. and he certainly never was at Ratisbon as bishop. I cannot find that his editors give him the style of bishop. CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (3rd S. iv. 216, 257.) I can only answer MR. WORKARD'S inquiry by stating that the Chancellor of the statute 5 Vict. c. 5. His status in the court, as Exchequer is not in any way mentioned in the chancellor, therefore, remains as it formerly existed, though some of his duties are taken away. He still attends the court on certain occasions, such as on entering into office, and on the pricking of sheriffs: and, if I remember rightly, in the former case a motion of course is still made before him. EDWARD Foss. circumstances of the case, is interesting and "My dear John, 66 April 20th, 1827. "Many thanks for your most friendly letter. Things have taken a turn, to me very distressing. The result in short is, that I am a peer; and for the present, without office.

Tell my friends not to question me, or to be surprised. Remember me affectionately to [Peter] Burrowes. Y", my dear John, always, 66 "W. C. PLUNKET.” The friend to whom the foregoing letter was written, was the late John Lloyd, Esq., of Dublin, one of the judges of the Insolvent Court. ABHBA. JOSEPH HARPUR, LL.D. (3rd S. iv. 190), a member of Trinity College, Oxford, was a native of Dorsetshire, though his parents resided near London, and was born about the year 1773. His degrees are correctly stated from the list of Oxford graduates; and having been induced, by domestic circumstances it is supposed, to resume his residence in the University about the year 1806, he held for many years the office of DeputyProfessor of Civil Law. He died at the age of forty-eight, October 2, 1821, owing to the result of an attack of paralysis; and was interred in the churchyard of St. Michael's parish, Oxford, in MIRABEAU A Spr (3rd S. iv. 226.)—It is perwhich he had lived. The full title of his work is, fectly well known that, in 1786, Mirabeau was An Essay on the Principles of Philosophic Criti- sent by the French minister, Calonne, on a secret cism applied to Poetry, London, 4to, 1810; and it mission to Berlin.

The only thing that appears to be new in the passage extracted by BOOKWORM is, that the letters are there said to have been addressed to Talleyrand. Adolphus, in his Biographical Memoirs (vol. ii. p. 97), describes the work as consisting of letters written by Mirabeau to Calonne. And this is much more probable. Calonne was at that time minister. Talleyrand was, as yet, only agent of the clergy. J. W. POTHEEN (3rd S. iv. 188.)-Your correspondent J. L. has clearly identified the goatish wine of Julian with the potheen of our days. The latter was a Celtic invention, and the emperor had been too long conversant with Gaul not to know and appreciate its inspiring effects. There has however, in all ages, been another side even to this question; and Dioscorides, with that disregard for poetry which happily distinguishes his profession, takes care to point out this other side, viz. the condition of the morrow when the inspiration of the night has fled : “ Καὶ τὸ [πόμα] καλούμενον δὲ κοῦρμι, σκευαζόμενον δὲ ἐκ τῆς κριθῆς, ᾧ καὶ ἀντὶ οἴνου πόματι πολλάκις χρῶνται, κεφαλαλγές ἐστι καὶ κακόχυμον, καὶ τοῦ νεύρου βλαπτικόν.” — ii. 110. H. C. C. BIBLE TRANSLATORS (3rd S. iv. 228.)-X. Y. Z. will find several particulars which may guide his inquiries respecting the translators of the Scriptures, in the preface to A Glossary to the Obsolete and Unusual Words and Phrases of the Holy Scriptures in the Authorised English Version, published by Wertheim and Macintosh in 1850. J. D. LORD PLUNKET (3rd S. iii. 167, 259.)—I have (with many other autographs) the original of the following unpublished letter, which, from the MELETES. BOOKWORM has done good service by calling attention to the curious note respecting Mirabeau in Lord Malmesbury's Diary and Correspondence, but I confess I much doubt the accuracy of the employed by the Minister Calonne, and it is very story. One thing is quite certain, Mirabeau was unlikely he should have been in correspondence Serjeants-at-Law (3rd S. iv. 180, 252.) — In the succession of serjeants, from 1786 to 1820, E. has omitted Sir Archibald Macdonald, when he 46 was made Chief Baron in 1793; and Lord Alvanley, when he became Chief Justice of the Common Pleas in 1801. What were their mottoes? Can E., or any other of your learned correspondents, inform me whether any serjeants were called between Sir Giles Rooke, in 1781, and George Bond, in 1786? And, if any, what were their names, dates, and mottoes? In the previous years of the reign of George III., I do not find the mottoes of the following serjeants, and should be glad to be enabled to supply the deficiency: : 1771. Sir William de Grey, afterwards Lord Walsingham. 1772. William Kempe, Thomas Walker, and Harley Vaughan. 1780. Sir Alexander Wedderburn, Lord Loughborough. 1781. Cranley Thomas Kirby, and Sir_Giles Rooke. EDWARD Foss. QUOTATION (3rd S. iv. 247.) - The hymn Nearer, my God, to Thee!" referred to by MR. PEACOCK is the first verse of a hymn by Sarah Flower Adams, a musical composer, and authoress of several poetical pieces and criticisms. She died in 1848. It may be found in most collections of hymns variously curtailed: five verses are given in Roundell Palmer's Book of Praise, and six in Christian Lyrics, 1862. SOLSBERG. This hymnal prayer, "Nearer, my God, to Thee!" was the united production of the sisters Flower, the accomplished and interesting daughters of the late eccentric but excellent Benjamin Flower, who many years ago originated, and for many years ably conducted, The Cambridge Intelligencer. Of the devout hymn in question, one sister (Mrs. Brydges Adams, I believe now surviving,) was authoress, while her sister set it to music. Happening on Sunday to hear it admirably sung by a chapel choir, I may freely add that the tune is as devotional as the prayer is pure and poetical. S. C. FREEMAN. [We have to thank several other correspondents for replies to this query. — ED.] - VITRUVIUS IN ENGLISH (3rd S. iv. 148.) Although not myself aware of the existence of this work, I may suggest to W. P., in case he is not already aware of the fact, that the library at St. Mary's College, at Oscott, contains nearly, if not quite, all the editions ever published of this author. T. C. BOSCOBEL. THE BHAGAVADGITA, ETC. (3rd S. iv. 166, 238.) I thank MR. BUCKTON for his obliging answer to my queries; it will be very useful to me. I have been informed by a friend that the Bhagavadgita is the History of Vishnu in verse. Among my Turkish curiosities is a bottle of black pomade (said to be used for the beard), strongly scented with attar of rose, which in my lists goes by the name of khokhol. As I know nothing at all about Eastern languages, I will ask if this word is allied to kohhl, which MR. BUCKTON gives as the proper way of spelling what I have as kohol? JOHN DAVIDSON. WASHINGTON FAMILY (3rd S. iv. 231.)—A pedigree of Washington of Garesdon, in Wiltshire, descended from Laurence Washington (ob. 1619), Registrar of the Court of Chancery, brother to Robert Washington, of Sulgrave, co. Northampton, Esq., and great-grandfather of Elizabeth, heiress of the Garesdon family, the wife of Robert Lord Ferrers of Chartley (whereby the baptismal names of Laurence and Washington have been derived to several of the Earls Ferrers), will be found in the Stemmata Shirleiana (p. 132), derived "from Baker's Northamptonshire, monumental inscriptions, and deeds penes W. Com. Ferrers." J. G. N. CPL. will find some interesting comments on Baker's Washington pedigree in The Washingtons, a tale by the Rev. J. N. Simpkinson. Some ancestors of George Washington lie buried in Brington church, and the learned and courteous rector would perhaps be able to afford CPL. some information respecting the Northamptonshire branch of the family. J. SIGABEN AND THE MANICHEANS (3rd S. iv. 169.) As I have not observed that any answer has been given to the Query "Who was Sigaben?" I throw out the suggestion that the person meant is Euthymius Zigabenus, a monk of the twelfth century, who compiled a Greek Commentary upon the Four Gospels, and upon the Book of Psalms; he also wrote a controversial work, entitled Panoplia Orthodoxa Fidei adversus Omnes Hæreses, in which, probably, the passage sought for by your querist F. H. will be found. I have not the book within reach. Most likely it is contained in the Bibliotheca Patrum. H. COTTON. Miscellaneous. NOTES ON BOOKS. Giraldi Cambrensis Opera, scilicet: I. De Invectionibus, Lib. iv. II. De Menevensi Ecclesia Dialogus. III. Vita S. David. Edited by J. S. Brewer, M.A., &c. Published under the Direction of the Master of the Rolls. (Longman.) It was intended that the present volume should have included the Speculum Ecclesia-the most interesting, and in many respects the most important, of all the works of Giraldus. But Mr. Brewer, having fortunately discovered the first four Books of Giraldus's treatise De In vectionibus, transcripts of which had been forwarded to the late Record Commission, but most unaccountably separated from the fifth and sixth Books (already printed by Mr. Brewer), he has preferred first completing this celebrated invective against Hubert Walter, the then Archbishop of Canterbury, his officials, witnesses, and dependents-unquestionably the bitterest of the author's works. Mr. Brewer's account of this remarkable attack by a distinguished ecclesiastic upon his Primate, will be read with considerable interest. This treatise is followed by Giraldus's Dialogus de Jure et Statu Menevensis Ecclesie-a document of considerable value for a history of the main events in the life of Giraldus; and especially of his long and arduous struggle in defence of his own election, and the independence of St. David's,-which has been already printed by Wharton, Leland, &c., but never so completely as in the present edition of it. The Life of St. David, likewise published by Wharton, concludes the volume; which is as creditable to Mr. Brewer's editorship-and that is saying much-as any of the preceding volumes for which the public are indebted to his learning and judgment. JACOB GRIMM.- Europe has sustained a great loss by the death of Jacob Grimm, one of the most profound, if not the most profound, scholar of this age, and who has exercised an influence over the minds of philologists and antiquaries, which will long bear fruit. Jacob Grimm was born at Hanau in Hesse-Cassel, on January 4, 1785, and at 10 o'clock in the evening of September 20, he died from a stroke of apoplexy, in his seventy-ninth year, having passed the day at his desk, and in the unimpaired enjoyment of his intellectual and physical powers. We have not space to enumerate the many important works we owe to his many-sided knowledge, clear-sighted intellect, and indefatigable industry. The delightful Kinder und Haus Mährchen (in which he was associated with his brother in letters as in blood, Wilhelm Grimm, and of which a well-worn copy of the second edition (1819), in three quaint little almaine quartos, is still one of our pet books) was one of the first. His Deutsche Grammatik appeared in 1819, and a third edition of it in 1840. Deutsches Rechts Altherthümer appeared in 1828, and was followed in 1835 by his Deutsche Mythologie. The second edition of this encyclopædia of Folk Lore (so different from the first that he who is wise will keep both upon his shelves) was published in 1844. In 1852 he commenced his Deutsche Worterbuch, and his friends observe it as a beautiful coincidence that the last word in the last published part is fromm - that peculiar term for a combination of religion and secular piety. Fortunately, as it is understood, the materials for the completion of this great work are in such a state as to give good hopes of its being brought to a satisfactory close. There is a pleas ing portrait of this great scholar and good man engraved by Voight of Berlin, from a drawing by Schmidt. The SOUTH KENSINGTON ART TRAINING SCHOOLS. The new buildings for these Schools, which will come into use on the 5th of October, are the first permanent buildings which have been provided for the National Art Training Schools. The buildings heretofore occupied by the Art Classes have all been of a temporary kind. In the first instance, in 1837, when the School of Design was instituted, the classes were held in rooms, on the second floor in Somerset House, once occupied by the Royal Academy; and now by the Office for the Registration of Births, Marriages, and Deaths. Next, the classes met in 1852 in Marlborough House, where the Queen, at the intervention of H.R.H. the Prince Consort, graciously permitted a training school for teachers for the Schools of Art throughout the country to be first established. Then in wooden buildings at South Kensington, to which place the Training Schools were removed in 1856. THE CASKET PORTRAIT.-Whatever faith we may put in the old saying, "There is nothing new under the sun," it is clear photographers contrive to get something new out of it. The Casket Portrait is the last of these novelties, and a most effective one it is. It is viewed by transmitted light, and consists of a solid cube of crystal in the interior of which is seen the portrait as a perfectly solid bust or miniature piece of statuary imbedded in the centre of the crystalline cube, and possessing the most perfect and exquisite relief. The inventors claim for the effect thus produced, and very justly, a degree of reality and beauty altogether unattainable by the ordinary photo-. graphs; while the Casket Portrait appears only the more perfect the more minutely it is examined. We will not endeavour to explain how this effect is produced by the combination of two photographic images on the two flintglass prisms of which the crystalline cube is composed, but confine ourselves to stating that the manner in which the Casket Portrait stands out in relief is at once striking and effective. It has another claim to favour, for, we presume, nothing can affect its durability. BOOKS AND ODD VOLUMES WANTED TO PURCHASE.
