Notices to Correspondents.
F. T. _The characteristic description of_ The Weekly Pacquet, _by the
author of the continuation of Sir James Mackintosh's_ History of England,
_seems perfectly just. We had marked for quotation, as a sample of its
virulent tone, "The Ceremony and Manner of Baptizing Antichrist," in No.
6., p. 47.; but we found its ribaldry would occupy too much of our valuable
space, and after all would perhaps not elicit one Protestant clap of
applause even at Exeter Hall._
JOHN WESTON. _The insertion of paginal figures to the Advertisement pages
of "N. & Q." was considered at the time the change was made, when it was
hinted to us that many of our subscribers would wish to retain those pages.
We may probably dispense them in our next Volume._
FOREIGNER. _The Canon inquired after will be found to be the 18th of the
"Constitutions and Canons Ecclesiastical, A.D. 1603." Its partial
observance complained of by our Correspondent has been of late years
frequently discussed in the various Church periodicals and newspapers,
especially in the_ British Magazine, vols. xviii., xix., _and_ xx. _See
also the official judgment of the Bishop of London on this Canon in his_
Charge _of 1842_, p. 43.
PRIMERS OF THE REIGN OF ELIZABETH.--_With reference to the article under
this heading in last week's Number, we have been reminded that the_
Liturgies and Private Prayers _put forth by authority during the reign of
Elizabeth, which were reprinted by the_ Parker Society, _have been sold by
that Society to Mr. Brown, of Old Street, and may be purchased of him at a
very moderate price. The introductions contain much valuable information._
COMUS. _We cannot learn that there is an edition of_ Locke on the
Understanding _epitomised published at Oxford. There is one in the_ London
Catalogue, _published some years ago by Whittaker and Co., price 4s. 6d.,
which may perhaps still be had._
A BORDERER. _Our Correspondent_ MR. C. MANSFIELD INGLEBY _wishes to address
a letter to_ A BORDERER; _how will it reach him?_
FRANCIS BEAUFORT. Biblia Sacra Latina, _two volumes in one, printed by R.
Rodt and B. Richel circa 1471, folio, was bought by Thorpe for 4l. 4s. at
the sale of the Duke of Sussex's library._
CLERICUS RUSTICUS _asks "Whence the term 'Mare's nest,' and when first
used?"_
HUGH HENDERSON (Glasgow). _It is not needful to use any iodide of silver in
the iodizing of collodion, or to make any change in the ordinary 30-grain
solution bath. The sensitizing fluid recommended by_ DR. DIAMOND _is all
that is required._
OUR EIGHTH VOLUME _is now bound and ready for delivery, price 10s. 6d.,
cloth, boards. A few sets of the whole Eight Volumes are being made up.
price 4l. 4s.--For these early application is desirable._
"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._
