NOVUS.

P.S. (Vol. ii., p. 375.).--The lines quoted by Dr. Pusey, I have some

notion, belong to a Romish, not a Socinian, writer.

_Winkel._--I thought, some time since, that the places bearing this name in

England, were taken from the like German word, signifying _a corner_. I

find, on examination, that there is a village in Rhenish Prussia named

"Winkel." It seems that Charlemagne had a wine-cellar there; so that that

word is no doubt taken from the German words _wein_ and _keller_, from the

Latin _vinum_ and _cella_.
