_Proverb against Physicians._--"M.D." wishes to be informed of the
earliest writer who mentions the proverb "Ubi tres Medici, duo Athei."
_Compendyous Olde Treatyse._--In Ames's _Typographical Antiquities_,
vol. i. p. 405. (ed. Herbert), is described a work, printed by Rycharde
Banckes, some time between 1525 and 1545, entitled, "A compendyous olde
treatyse shewynge howe that we ought to have the Scripture in Englyshe,
with the Auctours." 12mo. 18 leaves. This copy belonged to Herbert
himself, and was probably obtained at the sale of Thomas Granger, in
1732. Any information as to its wherabout at present, or the existence
of any other copy of the above tract, would confer a fabour on the
inquirer.
