_Bishop Hall's Resolutions._--A small edition of Bishop Hall's

_Resolutions and Decisions of Cases of Conscience_, printed in 1650, and

consequently in the author's lifetime, has, as its frontispiece, a "vera

effigies" of the venerable writer. On a fly-leaf there is, in the

handwriting of the former possessor,--a man of much literary

information,--this note: "The following portrait of Bishop Hall is rare

and valuable." I should esteem it a favour if some one of your

correspondents would inform me how far this is a correct estimate of the

print.
