TH

SUPPLEMENT

FOR VOLUME LXXX. PART II.

Embellished with a View of THEYDON GERNON CHURCH, ESSEX;
And The REVOLUTION HOUSE at WHITTINGTON, in Derbyshire.

Mr. URBAN, Epping, Dec. 24. HE Church of Theydon Gernon is about two miles South of Epping. It stands upon a small elevation, at a considerable distance from the village, with only an house or two near it. The whole is of brick and tile, like most of the Churches in this part of Essex. There are some Monuments; but those, like the Church, of no great antiquity.

The inclosed S. E. View of this Church (see Plate I.) was taken in the year 1808 by a shoe-maker (Wm. Franklin) of this town. This young man has a natural genius for the imitative arts, and has executed several pieces, without the least assistance, and under the greatest possible disadvantage, in a style that at once bespeaks ks his ingenuity and correctness.

I think, Mr. Urban, you will agree with me in opinion, that it is a matter of surprize, how any person, circumstanced like this humble son of Crispin, destined to labour hard at the awl and bristle for his daily bread, entirely self-taught, without the conveniences for the facilitation of his favourite pursuit, could have arrived at that proficiency which he is known to have acquired; as I trust the inclosed Drawing will be found to be no mean specimen of his abilities, and such as will insure a place in your Magazine.

Yours, &c.

as we are to the
" ultima cima Thule," or, as Homer
sublimely says, εσχατοι ανδρων, your
most useful and instructive monthly
publication unites us, as it were,
to the civilized world, and imparts to
us, in a full stream, the waters of that
great Fountain of Science and Lite-
rature, LONDON. You, Sir, may
fairly say of yourself, "Quæ regio in

terris nostri non plena laboris?" And,
as gratitude and thanks are the due
meed of benefits conferred, I cannot
withhold that tribute which I feel so
peculiarly your due, for the having
given to us that exquisite production
of the learned and elegant Mr.
Mathias, which appeared in p. 346;
and which is, if I can trust the evidence
either of my head or my heart, the
very perfection of friendly pane-
gyric, and classical Biography.
is, indeed, difficult to say, whether
the tender, though correct simplicity
of the style, the discriminate selection
of historical anecdote, or the deep
insight into the human mind, dis-
played in the general observations,
calls the most for our admiration.
The amiable Author identifies us, as
it were, both with himself, and the
excellent and highly-gifted Friend
whose life he records. We see the
ingenuous youth, with glowing cheek
and downcast eye, sinking under the
eagle glance of the awful Gray; we
tread with him the happy valleys of
Helvetia, and the sacred shores of
the Arno; and we view him, delighted,
another Orpheus, calling with his
lyre the willing groves to the banks of
his enchanted lake, and converting
into a new Tempe the Oäsis of
Blundeston.

the

To all that our own ruder tongue can give, Mr. Mathias has, with exquisite felicity, superadded choicest flowers, culled from his own copious stores of classical lore. "Manibus dat lilia plenis," and we may truly say, that he has adorned the favoured brows of Mr. Nicholls with a golden crown, studded with brilliant gems of every hue.

It is not without mingled sensations of surprize and regret, that we see a man, formed like Mr. Nicholls, to instruct and improve mankind, and to add lustre to the highest stations in life, pass through it in privacy or retir retires
