VOLUME THE FIRST OF NOTES AND QUERIES, with Title-page and very copious Index, is now ready, price 9s. 6d., bound in cloth, and may be had, by order, of all Booksellers and Newsmen.

We are unavoidably compelled to postpone numerous NOTES, QUERIES, AND REPLIES:  indeed we see no way of clearing off our accumulation of REPLIES without the publication of an extra Number, to be devoted exclusively to the numerous Answers which we now have waiting for insertion.

GUTCH’S Literary and Scientific Regsiter and Almanack, advertised in our last No., is for 1851 not 1850.

Mr. G.B.  RICHARDSON would oblige us by forwarding the additional verses of “Long Lonkin” for our correspondent SELEUCUS.

A CONSTANT SUBSCRIBER will find the line,

  “Music hath charms to soothe the savage breast,”

in Congreve’s Mourning Bride.

JANUS DOUSA. In our next No.

MEDICUS, who inquires respecting the origin of the proverbial saying, “Quem Deus vult perdere,” is referred to our First Volume, pp. 347. 351. 421. and 476. The original line reads “Quem Jupiter vult,” and is Barnes’ translation of a fragment of Euripides. {304}
