_Alteration of Title-pages._--Among the advertisements in the last
_Quarterly_ and _Edinburgh Reviews_, is one which replies to certain
criticisms on a work. One of these criticisms was a stricture upon its
title. The author states that the reviewer had a _presentation copy_, and
ought to have inquired into the title under which the book was sold to the
_public_ before he animaverted upon the connexion between the title and the
work. It seems then that, in this instance, the author furnished the
Reviews with a title-page differing from that of the body of his
impression, and thinks he has a right to demand that the reviewers should
suppose such a circumstance probable enough to make it imperative upon them
to inquire what the real title was. Query, Is such a practice common? Can
any of your readers produce another instance?
