A.H. (Stoke Newington).  “Limbeck” is used by Shakspeare for "Alembic;"_ and in the passage in Macbeth_,—­

  “That memory, the warder of the brain,
  Shall be a fume, and the receipt of reason
  A limbeck only.”

Receipt is used in the sense of receptacle_; and (we quote from one of the commentators)_, “The limbeck is the vessel through which distilled liquors pass into the recipients.  So shall it be with memory, through which every thing shall pass, and nothing remain.”

DJEDALEME TEBEYR. Some of our correspondent’s articles would, we have no doubt, have appeared ere this, but for the difficulty of deciphering his handwriting.  Our correspondents little know how greatly they would facilitate our labours by writing more legibly.

Errata.—­P. 406, col. 2. l. 45, for “vingto” read “MSto;” l. 48, for “indefe_n_sus” read “indefe_s_sus.”  P. 469, col. 1. lines 44, 50, and 53, for “Litt_ers_” read “Litt_us_.”

In the advertisement of Mr. Appleyard’s Greek Church, in our last Number, p. 471, for “Darling, Great Cullen Street,” read “Darling, Great Queen Street.”
