MINOR QUERIES.

_City Offices._--Can any of your correspondents recommend some book

which gives a good history of the different public offices of the city

of London, with their duties and qualifications, and in whom the

appointments are vested?

A Citizen.

_Harefinder, Meaning of._--Can any of your readers kindly give a

feasible explanation of {217} phrase _harefinder_, as it occurs in _Much

Ado about Nothing_, Act i. Sc. 1.? A reference to any similar term in a

contemporary would be very valuable.
