_Letters on the British Museum_ (Vol. iii., pp. 208. 261.).--Your

correspondent's Query as to the author of these letters, published by

Dodsley in 1767, 12mo., has not yet been answered. The author's name was

Alexander Thomson. It is inserted in manuscript in two copies of this

work which I possess. I have also seen the assignment of the copyright

to Dodsley, in which the same name occurs as that of the author.
