on the corpse, knew nothing of the identity of Sterne till after the dissection-he had received it as a nameless body, and the intimation that it was the corpse of the author of Tristram Shandy was only made known to him by his friend after the dissection was effected, hence the care in retaining his skeleton. Qu. Is it now at Cambridge?

It may be asked, why Sterne's widow or daughter did not interfere-the circumstances could only be known when all was over, and their poverty would have prevented any interposition on their part; unhappily, too, they had long been estranged, and were absent when he died in London. No sooner was he dead than his widow, to raise means, sold his books to Todd and Sotheran, booksellers at York, and their shop-catalogue, printed in 1768, ostentatiously announced in the title, it contained the library of Laurence Sterne, M.A, Prebendary of York, and author of Tristram Shandy.""

Sterne, in the autobiography, as printed, notices his amusements at Sutton were "books, painting, fiddling, and shooting;" for fiddling read fishing, he was no musician.

CHRISTMAS TREE.-The contributor of the excellent article on " The Early Signification of the Christmas Tree," Current Notes, p. 11, might have added that the sigillaria are still manufactured at Rome, and used under the name of Agnus Dei. They consist in oval cakes of wax of various sizes from one inch to six or seven inches broad, and are uniformly an eighth of an inch thick. The figure of a lamb is stamped on one side, emblematic of our blessed Lord, and on the other side is the image of some saint, most commonly St. Mary the Virgin, or St. John Baptist. These wax medallions are in great numbers consecrated by the Pope alone, every seventh year of his pontificate, with a ceremonial of the greatest pomp and intricacy, in which there are many ablutions with blessed water, and anointings with the holy chrism. Liverpool, March 19.

THE

THE QUEEN AND THE ITALIAN OPERA. ELIZABETH, Duchess of Orleans, in one of her letters Car relates, that during her abode in Paris, Christina, the Care abdicated Queen of Sweden, who was as peculiarly Cart eccentric in her nightdress as she was in almost every Cap thing else, and instead of some display of elegancy in Cape her nightcap, made use of a most unseemly linen Caper wrapper; having spent a restless day in bed, at length Cat ordered a band of Italian musicians from the Opera, to Cate attend and approach the curtains of the bed, which Crape were closely drawn, and endeavour to amuse her. Their Crept attempts were for some time unavailing, until the excellence of one of the singers arrested her attention and afforded her so much delight, that loudly exclaiming, "Mort Diable! comme il chante bien!" she on the instant suddenly arose, and thrust her strangely attired head from between the curtains, to the astoundment of the submissive Italians, who, not hitherto accustomed to such a mode of royal applause, were struck mute, and, unable to recover their surprise and terror of the object before them, were wholly silent for several minutes.

VCRIMDR.-On the reverse of some few of the third brass coins of Aurelian, is the legend VABALATHVS VCRIMDR. Will any reader of Current Notes kindly explain what this word implies? E. H.

parish of St. George's, Hanover Square, having been lately robbed of several dead bodies, a watch was placed there, attended by a large mastiff dog; notwithstanding which, on Sunday night last, the 26th, some villains found means to steal out another dead body, and carried off the dog." Under these circumstances, the corpse of a peer, or an author, was of no consequence to persons who were commissioned, or knew where to dispose of a subject; it was forwarded to its destination, and no questions asked, as to what cognomen while living the clay-cold-clod had borne.

CAR OF JUGGERNAUTI DESTROYED. - The worldknown famous Car of Juggernauth of Muhes, near Serampore, so memorable in the idolatrous observances of the Hindoos, was totally destroyed by fire on the night of Monday, February 6th last. The "odekuries,” or proprietors of Juggernauth, merged in grief, attribute the accident to the fury of the god, but for what cause they are not cognizant.
