A notice of the Vau or longitudinal passage here described, was read at the Spring Meeting of the Royal Institution of Cornwall in 1861, by Mr. R. Edmonds, and will appear with their Annual Report. It is also given as an Appendix to the Archæologia Cambrensis, No. 29, Vol. viii. Third Series. Chysauster, as the name has been given by Mr. Blight in this Journal, is written "Chysoyster," in the Ordnance Map; but in Martyn's older Map of Cornwall, it is "Chyoyster," and the name is thus given by Mr. Edmonds. Page 75. The following additions to the list of wooden effigies have been communicated. In the north transept, St. Mary's Overy, Southwark, there is a cross-legged effigy of oak, supposed to be the memorial of one of the Earls Warenne; it is figured by Gough, Sep. Mon. Add. to Pref. pt. iii., and described in Manning and Bray's Hist. Surrey, vol. iii., p. 573.-Door, Herefordshire: an effigy of oak in the south aisle, called Caducanus, Bishop of Bangor, who took the monastic habit at Dore Abbey, and died in 1225.-Weston, county Northampton, two cross-legged effigies of wood. The curious effigy at Much Marcle (noticed infra, p. 75) is supposed to be that of Helion, lord of the manor t. Edw. III. The costume is curious; a cap, surcoat buttoned in front down to the girdle, purse and dagger. It is said to have been brought from Castle Frome. Gough, Sep. Mon. vol. ii., introd. p. 110; Gent. Mag. vol. c. pt. ii. p. 589. Page 76. A die of ivory, supposed to be Saxon, was found with an urn in the Old Kent Road, London, as recorded, Journal Brit. Arch. Ass. 1861, p. 334. It is not a perfect cube, measuring nine sixteenths by seven-sixteenths of an inch. The sides are marked with concentric circles, as on the die here figured, the 1 opposite 6, 2 opposite 5, 3 opposite 4, so that in every throw the venus, or lucky chance, and the cunicula, or unlucky chance, together make seven.

We are indebted to Mr. Frank Calvert for the notice of the following inaccuracies in his Memoirs on a Bronze Weight found at Abydos, and on the site of Colonæ, &c., in the last volume of this Journal: Page 109, note. Dr. Smith's observations in regard to the supposed site of Abydos, and the village Aidos, are incorrect. No village exists at the spot in question, where there is, however, a Turkish fort called Nagara Kaleksi. Page 288, last line, for "Hidgia," read "Ilidgia."
