METEOROLOGICAL TABLE for October 1810. By W. CARY, Strand. Height of Fahrenheit's Thermometer. Height of Fahrenheit's Thermometer. THE GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE, For OCTOBER, 1810. Mr. URBAN, York, Aug. 13. VORK deservedly ranks as the se are but a cambrous deformity, prejudicial to the health of the City, England; yet it more useful edifices not the mere established title to be so called, but the association of ideas, and the impressions which its own features create, that ratify the justice of the claim, and would stamp it with the appellation, even did no legal right exist for it. But, alas! Mr. Urban, the ravages of the grand destroyer are planting the deep furrows of age on many parts of its venerable countenance; and I fear that some of its features are vanishing away for ever. I have indulged myself with a Ramble on a portion of the Walls of the City, formerly more agreeable, when more safe, from North-street Postern, nearly to Skeldergate Postern; but I am sorry to say, that there are interruptions in the course of it, which take much from the pleasure of the walk, and which, I think, might be remedied. It is not to be expected that these decaying fabricks should now be renewed; yet I should think, that the contemplation of the majestic ruins might, at no very considerable expence, be rendered easy and secure, and that the walk along the ramparts might be maintained, although the battlements themselves should be entirely given up to the silent encroachments of Time; and, certainly, the interest of the scene would be in no degree diminished, if these mouldering remnants, and the sombrous feelings of the Antiquary who contemplates them, should occasionally be irradiated by the bright beams that dart from blushing Beauty's lustrous eyes. But there are surmises afloat, unfounded ones I hope, that it is not Time alone that hurls down the massy fragments; but that more daring depredation, if not permitted, is at least overlooked: and notions are entertained, that the walls themselves be erected on their sites! So might the hallowed melancholy of St. Mary's Abbey-precincts be invaded; so might Clifford's Tower be leveled with the dust; and all that reminds us of the magnificence of antient York, remain only in the beautiful delineations of Mr. Halfpenny. It is not for a Stranger to behold or understand the springs which move the conduct of those in whom local administration resides; he can but reason from what he sees, and from the feelings which those views excite; but if it be only taste, whether good or bad, that is busy on the occasion, he may then he allowed to express his own sentiments, and to confess, that he is rather at a loss to conceive how a circumvallation, which in his idea operates as a barrier against the accumulation of buildings, can be accounted not salutary; and he may be permitted to ask, whether, as the closeness of the streets cannot be universally remedied, it is not counterbalanced by the possession of elevations, commanding the most interesting scenery,and whereon, could we certify the roads in order, the inhabitants might walk delighted, and enjoy the freshness of the reviving breeze. O that some sylphid zephyr would on its silken pinions, in language soft as the wings that bore it, language that could neither irritate nor offend, convey the sorrows and regrets of Antiquity to those who ought to be the guardians, not the destroyers of these antique piles; and could convince them, that, though unseen, the frowning forms of their forefathers, caparisoned in all their grim attire of war, stalk terrible along the ramparts of their old defences, ascend their lofty towers, look down with mingled anger and concern, and in |
