_Conceyted Letters, who wrote?_--

"Conceyted Letters, newly laid open: or a most excellent bundle of

new wit, wherein is knit up together all the perfection or art of

episteling, by which the most ignorant may with much modestie

talke and argue with the best learned." London: B. Alsop, 1618.

Who is the author of this little work? Lowndes gives it as an anonymous

production, but it is sometimes ascribed to Nicolas Breton. The initials

I. M. affixed to the preface, would rather denote Jervase Markham as the

author.

[Greek: D].

_Acta Sanctorum._--Is any endeavour being made for the completion of

that vast work, the _Acta Sanctorum_, the last volume of which I believe

was published at Brussels in 1845?
