' THE KINGDOM'S INTELLIGENCER,' 1660- 1663. The Parliamentary Intelligencer be- came The Kingdom's Intelligencer on 31 Dec., 1660, and continued till at least 24 Aug., 1663. The British Museum Library Cata- logue states, " The journal was discontinued in August, 1663." The paper was reprinted at Edinburgh, and copies of this issue are known up to 23 July, 1663. Hugo Arnot, the historian of Edinburgh, says, however, that i; from the copies we have seen of this paper it subsisted at least seven years " ; and in an unprinted ' History of Scottish Printing ' left by Geo. Chalmers, the author

of Caledonia,' ' Life of Ruddiman,' &c. r there occurs the notice of an issue dated September, 1664. A copy was in his pos- session. What authority has the British Museum Catalogue for stating that the journal ended in August, 1663 ? Are any issues known after that date ? W. J. C.

GLADSTONIANA : " GLYNNESE." I have met with a small 12mo volume of 112 pages, apparently published privately : " Contri- butions towards a Glossary of the Glynne Language. By a Student .... to which is added The Doubting Dowager, or a Tale of a House, an Epic Poem in One Canto. 1851." It contains explanations of some 125 words and phrases in what the author terms " Glynnese " language, of which he says, in a short preface,

''the chief living authorities for its use are the Very Rev. the Bean of Windsor, the Hon. Lady Glynne, Sir Stephen Glynne, Mrs. W. E. Gladstone, and the Lady Lyttelton ; and of these the most leading appear to be the Bean and Mrs. Gladstone. !r Whoever was the author, he appears to- have been on a familiar footing at Hawarden and Hagley ; and though the work, which cannot have been altogether palatable to its subjects, is primarily concerned with the persons mentioned, there are several allu- sions to Mr. Gladstone and to idiosyncrasies attributed to him ; and also a four-page " Fragment of a Speech in the House of Commons by The Rt. Hon. W. E. Gladstone, in which the whole Glynnese vocabulary is aired." The book has no publisher's name on the title. Is anything known as to the author and the occasion of publication ?

' PENROSE'S JOURNAL ' : TURTLE-RIDING. Some time ago there was a good deal of discussion about being able to ride on a turtle in water. I came recently on this passage :

"One fine moonlight night, as we were at this sport, Harry somewhat too impatient for the turtle to fix herself, she discovered him, and made at once back for the sea. Observing this, he ran and got astride on her back, grasping the forepart of her callipash. Seeing this, I ran too and got on behind, and Patty came and clung round my waist. Not- withstanding this, she was so large and strong that she scrabbled us fairly into the sea. Patty tumbled off backwards. I slid off on one side, and lost my hat ; but Harry stuck on her, till she sank him up to the chin, and then he left her." This, I think, whether fact or fiction, " takes the cake " for turtle-riding. Three on a turtle ! The extract is from a book in my possession, entitled " The Journal of Llewellin Penrose, a Seaman.
