The interior of the church of St. Anthony, which is situated on the coast south of Falmouth, is highly deserving of notice from its style of architecture, the arch separating the nave being a fine specimen of Anglo-Norman workmanship.

In the parish of Luxilian is an immense pile of rocks, totally different from the Roach Rocks, yet extremely well worth seeing; they are seated on a considerable eminence, and many of the ponderous fragments have rolled into the valley beneath, presenting altogether a very singular appearance. In some places the stones very much resemble antient cromlechs.

Four-Hole Cross is situated about six miles on the right of the road leading from Bodmin to Lanson, and is considered one of the most interesting relics of antiquity in Cornwall; but the upper part, either from age or other causes, is not perfect.

THE LOGAN STONE OVERTURNED.

The following Letter to the Editor of the Annals of Philosophy is taken from that work for May, 1824.

Plymouth April 18, 1824.

“DEAR SIR,

Your geological readers will hear with infinite regret, that the celebrated Logan Stone in Cornwall, which has for so long a period been regarded as an object of great national interest and curiosity, and which has been visited by persons from the remotest extremity of Europe, has within the last few days been overturned by one of the Lieutenants of his Majesty’s navy, now commanding a revenue cutter, stationed between the Lizard and Land’s End, assisted by a party of his men. The barbarous and wanton folly which could induce an officer bearing his Majesty’s commission to commit so unwarrantable an act, as to remove a great national curiosity from a position in which it had stood for ages, defying the hand of time, and affording to the enlightened traveller an object of such singular interest, will, it is hoped, be visited with the severest displeasure of the Admiralty. In a tour through Cornwall in the summer of 1821, I was informed by a cottager who lived near the spot, that an attempt was made by a party of seamen some years before, to remove it, but without success. Cornwall by this wanton outrage, has lost one of its most interesting monuments.

I remain, dear Sir, yours very truly,

G. W. HARVEY.”
