TIM DECLINATION OP THE SPIRE OF SALISBURY
CATHEDRAL.—It will be gratifying to our readers to know
that no declination of our noble spire has akin place since
, 1668. when it was plumbed by the late Sir Christopher
I Wren, and who recommended "that this test be often
repeated." It was repeated by Mr. Noah in 1680 by Mr.
Thomas Naish In 1736 and 1739, by the Clerk of the Works
In 1637 and 1840, and also on the 30th September, 1658,
being the 600th anniversary of the dedicetion of the
orithedral.—Sciiirlitny Journal.
