in Norfolk and Suffolk. Cambridgeshire,
Derbyshire, and Devonshire have, however,
one each. There does not appear to be any
work on the church bells of Hampshire alone :
but possibly that on ' Wiltshire, &c.,' by
W. C. Lulds (London, 1857), may deal with
those of Hants also.

PAGINATION (12 S. vi. 12). The Folio Edition of the Genevan (or Breeches) Bible, printed by Christopher Barber in 1583, is an example of the pagination described by your correspondent, if I understand him rightly i.e., only one side of the paper bears the number of the page ; or, to put it in another way, the numbers refer to the leaves not to the pages.
In all the volumes (Folio) of Matthew Pole's ' Synopsis Criticorum,' published at
Utrecht in cioiocxxciv., printed in two-
columns, the columns are numbered instead*
of the pages.
I am not sufficiently acquainted with old) books to be certain whether there is anything, unusual in these examples.
W. F. JOHN TIMBRELL.
I find the following are paged on the right only : -
' Almanack Perpetnum ' Venice, apud Luca (or Lucas) An ton i us, 150.x ' Missale,' Paris, 1506.
Paged on right in black letter Roman numerals, fo. Ixxviii. (example).
"The | Tvvoo Bookes of | Francis Bacon I of the proficieuce and advance | men^ of Learning divine and | humane 1605,"
which is paged only on right, but in the most erratic disorder
" Traiite | des Chiffres | on secretes | Manieres | d escrire | Biaise de Vigenere i Paris, 1586."

PERSISTENT ERROR (12 S. v. 315). In my copy of Jeremy Taylor's ' Holy Living; and Holy Dying,' dated 1670, it is the same : " Quails stuck in their nostrils " (" London printed by Roger Norton for Richard Royston, Bookseller to His Most Sacred Majesty. MDCLXX."). This edition has- three engravings ; in one of them are figures representing, I imagine, Jeremy Taylor and, Lord and Lady Carbery.

LIEUT. -GENERAL SHARPE (12 S. v. 321 ,. vi. 98). In Burke's ' Landed Gentry,' 1847; under the pedigree of Higgins of Skellow (sic),. Grange, near Doncaster, Yorks, it is stated that Godfrey Higgins, " who enjoyed con- siderable literary reputation," and died Aug. 9, 1833, left an only son of the same name, and an elder and only surviving dau. Jane, who m. " Lieut. -General Sharpe of Hoddam Castle, Dumfries-shire, M.P. for the Dumfries boroughs." Having this clue to work on, Foster's ' Scots M.P.s ' carries it a little further by describing him as General Matthew Sharpe of Hoddam, M.P. for Dumfries boroughs in three Parliaments, 1832 to 1841, and dates his death Feb. 12, 1845, though he gives Jane as the younger daughter. His military commissions were as f ollows : Cornet of 1 6th Light Dragoons Feb. 18, 1791 ; lieutenant in same Feb. 19,. 1793 ; senior captain in the newly-raised 28th (not 26th) Light Dragoons Mar. 25, 1795 ; senior major thereof Feb. 27, 1796 ; senior lieutenant -colonel thereof Aug. 5,.
