_H. Neele, Editor of Shakspeare._--In the preface to _Lectures on English

Poetry, being the Remains of the late Henry Neele_ (Lond. 1830), mention is

made of a new edition of Shakspeare's dramatic works, "under the

superintendence of Mr. Neele as editor, for which his enthusiastic

reverence for the poet of 'all time' peculiarly fitted him, but which, from

the want of patronage, terminated after the publication of a very few

numbers." These very few numbers must have appeared about 1824-1827; yet

the answer to my repeated inquiries after them in London is always "We

cannot hear of them." Can any one give me farther information?--From the

_Navorscher_.
