I must confess I cannot agree with the remark. If the point be to be decided by internal evidence, the verses are surely Pope's. The collection of A. Hill's miscellaneous works was a posthumous one for the benefit of the family, and includes several other poems, which were certainly not written by him. Little stress, therefore, can be laid upon the fact of the lines being included in this collection, which seems to have comprised whatever was found amongst Hill's papers, without any nice examination or scrutiny. My conclusion is, that the verses are Pope's; and it is at all events certain that they are not Charles Yorke's. JAMES CROSSLEY. _Archbishop Bolton of Cashel_ (Vol. iii., p. 39.).--He was born at Burrishool, in the county of Mayo, about 1678; graduated at Trinity College, Dublin; was ordained deacon in 1702; priest in 1703; became a prebendary of St. Patrick's, Dublin, in 1707; chancellor of that cathedral in 1714; vicar-general of the diocese of Dublin in 1720; vicar of Finglas, near Dublin, in the same year; praecentor of Christ Church, Dublin, in 1722; bishop of Clonfert in the same year; bishop of Elphin in 1724; archbishop of Cashel in 1729; to which diocese he bequeathed his valuable library. He died in January, 1744, and was buried at St. Werburgh's Church, in Dublin. {73} See my _Fasti Ecclesiae Hibernicae_, vols. i., ii., and iv., for a few more particulars, if required. H. COTTON. Thurles, Ireland, Jan. 20. 1851. _Erasmus and Farel_ (Vol. iii., p. 38.).--In my _Life of Calvin_, p. 46., I mention that Erasmus named Farel, _Phallicus_; and infer that he probably did so from some manifestation of amorous propensities on the part of that reformer. A querist in your last number (J.C.R.) points out that D'Aubigne, or his translator, spells the word _Fallicus_, and refers it to the deceitful character of Farel. _Phallicus_ is a Greek word, and has a meaning--[Greek: phallikos], of or belonging to the [Greek: phallos]. _Fallicus_, to the best of my knowledge, is neither Greek nor Latin, and has no meaning. Erasmus, in his epistles, constantly spells the word _Phallicus_. (See _Epp._ 698. 707. &c. Leyden, ed. 1706.) And that I was justified in drawing from it an inference which is in analogy with its meaning, the following passages, in the last of the epistles just cited, will establish:-- "Hunc stomachum in me concepit (Phallicus) quod in _spongia_ dubitem de Lutheri spiritu: praeterea quod scripserim, quosdam sordidos, et _impurae vitae_ se jactitare nomine Evangelii." And a little farther on-- "At tamen quicquid hactenus in me blateravit Phallicus, non minus vane quam virulente, facite condonabitur hominis morbo, modo posthac sumat _mores Evangelii praecone dignos_."
