_Edmund Bohun_ (Vol. v., p. 539.).--Of Edmund Bohun's _Historical
Collections_, in eight vols. folio, I became the purchaser at Mr. Bright's
sale. They consist of a most curious and interesting collection of the
newspapers, ballads, tracts, broadsides of the period (1675-92) in regular
series, bound up with original MS. documents, and with a manuscript
correspondence with Bohun from Hickes, Roger, Coke, Charlotte, and others,
relating to the politics and news of the day. If your correspondent MR.
RIX, from whom I am glad to find we are to expect the private Diary of
Bohun, wishes for a more particular description of the volumes, I shall be
happy to furnish it.
