This great cavalry officer, then colonel Ponsonby, fought at Talavera, Barrosa, Vimeira, Salamanca, and Vittoria, performing some of the most brilliant exploits recorded in that fierce and enterprising era of the war. At Waterloo he led on the 12th regiment, and, fighting at fearful odds, received a cut on his right arm, which caused his sword to drop, and immediately afterwards he received another on his left, which he had raised to protect his head. By the latter he lost the command of his horse, which galloped forward, and colonel Ponsonby, unable to defend himself, got a blow from a sword upon his head, that brought him senseless to the ground. There he lay, exposed on the field, during the whole of the ensuing night. After being wantonly pierced through the back by a lancer, plundered by a French tirailleur, rode over by two squadrons of Prussian cavalry, and encumbered for some hours by a dying soldier lying across his legs, he was conveyed in the morning in a cart to the village of Waterloo, where it was found he had received seven wounds; yet by constant attention he recovered, and continued an ornament to his country for nearly twenty-two years afterwards.

PART IV.

ARCHBISHOPS AND BISHOPS OF ENGLAND.

THE ecclesiastical government of England is divided into two provinces, Canterbury and York. Canterbury hath the following twenty suffragan bishoprics appertaining

to it:

To the province of York belong the following six suffragan bishoprics:

Carlisle.

Chester.

Durham.
Manchester.

Ripon.

Sodor and Man.

The bishop of Sodor and Man is not a peer of parliament; but the present bishop of that see, the earl of Auckland, in right of his earldom, has his seat in the house of lords.

By the act 10th and 11th Victoria, cap. 108. (passed 23rd July 1847), by which the see of Manchester was erected, it was declared, that the bishop of that see should then have no seat in parliament, with a view to not increasing the number of spiritual peers. By this act, the junior, or last appointed bishop, is to have no seat, until called to the house of lords by writ of summons, which is issued to him on the avoidance of another see and creation of a new bishop, who then, of course, becomes, in his turn, the junior bishop. The archiepiscopal sees of Canterbury and York, and the three sees of London, Durham, and Winchester, are exempted from the operation of this act.

ARCHBISHOPRIC OF CANTERBURY.

THIS see was settled by Austin, or Augustin, a monk, who first preached the gospel in England; and, converting Ethelbert, king of Kent, that king, animated with great zeal for his new religion, bestowed many favours upon Austin, who in consequence fixed his residence in the capital of Ethelbert's dominions. The church was made a cathedral, repaired, consecrated, and dedicated to Christ, which dedication it still retains, although, for a considerable space of time, it was better known as St. Thomas's from Thomas à Becket, who was murdered in it. The present fabric was begun by archbishop Lanfranc and William Corbois, and greatly augmented by several of their successors. During the great rebellion, it suffered much, the usurper Cromwell having made a stable of it for his dragoons. After the Restoration, it was repaired, and made what it now appears.

The diocese comprises the county of Kent, except the city and deanery of Rochester and some parishes in London. It included, until recently, a number of parishes in other dioceses: these were called Peculiars, it having been an ancient privilege of this see, that, wheresoever the archbishops had either manors or advowsons, the place was exempted from the jurisdiction of the ordinary of the diocese wherein it was situated, and was deemed in the diocese of Canterbury. Abolished from 1st January 1846. The archbishop is accounted Primate and Metropolitan of all England, and is the

first peer in the realm; having the precedence of all dukes not of the blood-royal, and all the great officers of state. He is styled His Grace, and he writes himself Divina Providentia; whereas other bishops style themselves Divina Permissione. At coronations, he places the crown on the king's head'; and, wherever the court may be, the king and queen are the proper domestic parishioners of the archbishop. The bishop of London is accounted his provincial dean, the bishop of Winchester his sub-dean, the bishop of Lincoln his chancellor, and the bishop of Rochester his chaplain.

Canterbury has yielded to the Church eighteen saints; to the Church of Rome nine cardinals; and to the civil state of England twelve lord chancellors, four lord treasurers, and one lord chief justice. The see is valued in the king's books at 2816l. 17s. 9§d.
