The Lord Bishop of Lincoln has appointed, by letters

the Right Hon. Lord Thurlow, deceased.

A correspondent hi the Gentleman's Maga-
zine attempts to remove the difficulty which has hitherto
existed in accounting for the manner in which the ancient
Monuments at Stonehenge have been erected, by proving
that there would be no difficulty at all to remove stones of
the same size by the mechanical means daily employed for
removing large weights. He calculates the weight of the
largest atone at Stonehenge not to exceed 30 tons ; while
the weight of the stone on which the equestrian statue of
the CZAR PETER, at Petersburgh, is mounted, is com-
puted to amount to about 1,430 tons; and that was car-
ried a distance of eight miles over most difficult roads.
He states further, that ➢lr. WESTMA COTT has now in his
study a block of marble weighing 19 tons, which was
dragged by as many horses. The weight of the eques-
trian statue of Achilles, in Hyde park, is about two tons
heavier than the largest stone at Stonehenge, and was
taken from the Artist's without horses, and suspended
in the air before lowered on its pedestal. As there are
quarries within 20 miles of Stonehenge, those pieces of
rock might have been carried to their present position with-
out any very wonderful exertion of mechanical power.
