*** Letters, stating particulars and lowest price. _carriage free_, to be sent to MR. BELL, Publisher of "NOTES AND QUERIES," 186. Fleet Street. * * * * * NOTICES TO CORRESPONDENTS. Among the many papers which we are unavoidably obliged to postpone are an original and inedited _Letter by Horace Walpole_, Mr. Singer's Reply to C.W.G. on _AElfric's Colloquies_, an interesting communication from Mr. Coles respecting _Arabella Stuart_, a paper by Mr. Rye on the _Queen of Robert Bruce_, and T.S.D.'s able article on _Arabic Numerals_. The Erectheum Club (like "The Parthenon") takes its name from the Erectheum at Athens. H.M.A. declined with thanks. X.P. is informed that the _monotome_ edition of Boswell's Johnson edited by Croker, is not an abridgment of the larger work, but a new and thoroughly revised edition of it; and with a really good index. To correspondents inquiring as to the mode of procuring "NOTES AND QUERIES," we have once more to explain, that every bookseller and newsman will supply it regularly, if ordered; and that gentlemen residing in the country, who may find a difficulty in getting it through any bookseller in their neighbourhood, may be supplied regularly with the stamped edition, by giving their orders direct to the publisher, MR. GEORGE BELL, 186 Fleet Street, accompanied by a Post-Office order for a quarter, 4s. 4d.; a half year, 8s. 8d.; or one year, 17s. 4d. Errata. P. 242. col. 2. l. 11., for "coheir" read "cognate;" and line 16, for "Argidius" "AEgidius;" and p. 243, col 1. l. 35. read "anecdote of Dionysius related by Cicero and by Plutarch, in his _Laconic Apophthegms_, which Stobaeus evidently followed." * * * * * Just published, in post 8vo., 10s. 6d., the Third Volume of THE ROMANCE OF THE PEERAGE; or, CURIOSITIES OF FAMILY HISTORY.
