PERMANENT ENLARGEMENT OF "NOTES AND QUERIES."--_In compliance with the
suggestion of many of our correspondents, and for the purpose of giving
more ready insertion to the Replies which we receive to their Queries,
we propose to enlarge our Paper permanently to 24 pages; making it 32
pages when occasion requires. This change, called for moreover by the
increase of our correspondence consequent on our increased circulation,
will take place on the 3rd of January next, when we shall commence our_
Fifth Volume. _From that day the price of our paper will be_ 4_d. for
the unstamped, and_ 5_d. for stamped copies. By this arrangement we
shall render unnecessary the double or Sixpenny Numbers now issued
nearly every month; thus avoiding a good deal of occasional confusion,
and rendering the price of the enlarged_ "NOTES AND QUERIES" _for the
whole year very little more than it is at present._
_We have to apologize to many of our correspondents, more especially our
Querists, for the non-insertion of their communications. But we have
been anxious at the close of our Volume to insert as many Replies as
possible. We hope, with the New Year, and our new arrangements, to
render such explanations as the present unnecessary._
_We are unavoidably compelled to omit our usual list of_ REPLIES
RECEIVED.
