OXONIENSIS.

[Bishop Ken's Morning and Evening Hymns have been restored in

Messrs. Eyre and Spottiswoode's last rubricated edition of the

Common Prayer, as far as was practicable; they were carefully

collated with the original, and all variations corrected, except

those which would materially affect immemorial use. The entire hymns

are of great length, but all those verses which have been at all

generally sung in churches are to be found in the edition to which

we refer.

We may take this opportunity of noticing that the Queen's printers

have lately restored the lesser Saints' Days to the kalendar in

their smaller editions of the Common Prayer. We are not aware of any

other similar editions in which the kalendar appears thus complete.]

_Etymology of "Daysman_."--What is the etymology of _Daysman_,

which, in the Book of Job, and in some of our provincial dialects,

means a mediator or arbitrator?
