Notices to Correspondents.
_We have this week the pleasure of again presenting our readers with a
Thirty-two page Number, in consequence of the number of Advertisements and
the length of _DR. DIAMOND'S_ valuable paper. This latter we recommend to
the attention of our antiquarian friends, who will find, as we have done,
that the process is at once simple and certain, and one which may be
mastered with very little trouble._
NON-MEDICUS. _Your correction of an obvious blunder in the
Registrar-General's Report is not fitted for our columns._
F. W. _The proverb_ Good wine needs no bush _has reference to the practice
which formerly prevailed of hanging a tuft of ivy at the door of a vintner,
as we learn from_--
"Now a days the good wyne needeth none ivye garland."
_Ritson, in a note on the epilogue to Shakespeare's_ As You Like It,
_speaks of the custom as then prevalent in Warwickshire, and as having
given the name to the well-known_ Bush Inn _at Bristol_.
B. W. C. (Barum). _The subject is under serious consideration, but the
difficulties are greater than our friendly Correspondent imagines._
J. D. Les Lettres Cabalistiques _were written by M. D'Argens, the author
of_ Les Lettres Juives _and_ Les Lettres Chinoises.
MR. J. A. DUNKIN, _of Dartford, Kent, would feel obliged with the loan of
the following work_: Memoirs of the Origin of the Incorporation of the
Trinity House of Deptford Strond. _It is not in the British Museum._
FOLK LORE.--_We propose next week to present our readers with a Christmas
Number, rich in_ Folk Lore, _and other kindred subjects_.
_Many replies to Correspondents are unavoidably postponed._
"NOTES AND QUERIES" _is published at noon on Friday, so that the Country
Booksellers may receive Copies in that night's parcels, and deliver them to
their Subscribers on the Saturday_.
