Cambridge, Feb. 4. 1851.
P.S. Since the above was written, I have observed the following notice of
the work of Laurentius in Southey's _Common Place Book_, 4th Series, 478.
(apparently from a bookseller's catalogue):
"Laurentius (And.) De Mirabili Strumas Sanandi VI. Solis Galliae Regibus
Christianissimis divinitas concessa, (_fine copy_,) 12s. Paris, 1609.
"This copy possesses the large folded engraving of Henry IV., assisted
by his courtiers in the ceremony of curing the king's evil."

_Forged Papal Bulls_ (Vol. ii., p. 491.).--In your Number, 20th Dec., J. E.
inquires where is the instrument for counterfeiting the seal of the Pope's
Bulls, which was dredged up from the ruins of old London Bridge. It is in
my possession, and your correspondent will find an account of it, with
woodcuts of the instrument itself and the seal, in the _Proceedings of the
Archaeological Association_, 11th Feb. 1846.
