RING OF MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS.

SIR,--Having noticed your correspondent R. B.'s communication

respecting the above curious relic, I beg to state that I also possess

a facsimile of the same engraved upon crystal, an impression of which I

enclose for your inspection. I believe the original is in Her Majesty's

collection at Windsor Castle.

I am, Sir, respectfully yours,

J. G. P.

15, Park Road, Stockwell.

LITHOGRAPHY.--Your Correspondent, Mr. Cole, is very much mistaken

("Current Notes," for February, p. 12) in supposing that he possesses

the very _first_ impression in Lithography in England, although it may

be from Ackerman's press, and is certainly a curiosity. If Mr. Cole

will turn to the second article in the "Foreign Review," No. VII. p.

47, he may find that Lithography was practised in England so early as

1802, and was introduced into France about 1807.
