In the series of the " Gentleman's Magazine Library" (Elliot•
Stock) we have the sixth volume of Topography, edited by F. A. Milne. It contains the two counties of Kent and Lancashire; the former of the two fills more than two hundred and forty pages, the laity ahead fifty. Conairlerinv the relative size and population of the two, this seems, at first sight, strange; but the
Kent and Lancashire of a century ago were in a very different position from that which they occupy now. The plan of the volume is to give the parishes in alphabetical order, with any notices that may have occurred of antiquities, customs, legends, &c.
