During the eotnparatively sitort time this work has been in

already to recant several material alterations in exterior forms;
in one instance the object no longer exists, with an important fen.
-lure of recanting exclusively the removal in situation of that
remarkable antiquity, the lemilon Stone, in iVatling-street. When
a few years may have passed, these consideritions, it must he
! evident, either in an antiquarian or historical laniard' view, become
important.

have it. _
