THREAT TO LEWES CASTLE.

OUR DAILY TALK ON HEALTH

OPPOSITION TO NEW

COUNTY OFFICES.

Determined opposition is to be offered to the proposal of the Eas Sussex County Council to provide additional accommodation for its staff by the erection of a

new building within the precincts of Lewes Castle, says a Home paper. Since the council, by a small ma- ority at a meeting from which representatives of the Press were excluded, approved in principle a scheme put forward by the County Hall Committee for the acquisi- tion of the land required for the building, influential protests have been made against interference with a historic site, and petition of appeal to the council not to pro- ceed with the scheme are now being extensively signed.

The Two Cannings. After a prolonged run, the hunt for the origin of the nomenclature of Canning Town ended in the Public Record Office. But even there the quarry proved most elusive, and was very nearly al lowed to escape. The scent led- if it can be said to have led through histories and postal 'guides, through censas: returns, topographical works, and what not. One found that Canning Town began to collect its thick population in 1851 on the building of the docks, ironworks, and ship- building yards; and that ten years or so earlier it was known as Can- ning New Town; none of which otherwise interesting Information was to the point. At last, when the game appeared to be up, the Rev. James B. Johnston's "Place Names of England and Wales" exposed the horrid truth-horrid. for the statesman: theory-that Canning Town is "so named from the former principal employer of labour there." Whether this former principal employer was a member of the famous Canning family is a question which need not be pursued. The purpose is gained, the hunt repaid, when at- tention is drawit to the anomaly In London annalising whereby the Roman city is often better attested than the 19th contury town,, -
