Notices to Correspondents.

_The length of several of the communications in our present Number compels us to postpone this week our_ NOTES ON BOOKS, _&c._

S. (Sunderland). _We must refer our Correspondent who inquires respecting eating_ Carlings (_or Grey Peas_) _upon_ Care _or_ Carle _Sunday, and the connexion between that name and_ Char Freytag, _the German name for Good Friday, to Brand's_ Popular Antiquities, vol. i. pp. 113-116. (_ed. Bohn._)

R. ELLIOTT, ESQ. _We have a letter for this Photographic Correspondent. Where shall we direct it?_

R. J. S., _who inquires as to Richard Brandon having been the executioner of Charles I., is referred to Sir H. Ellis's_ Letters Illustrative of English History (2nd Series, vol. iii. pp. 340, 341.); _and to_ "N. & Q.," Vol. ii., pp. 110. 158. 268.; Vol. v., p. 28.; Vol. vi., p. 198.

W. M. R. E. _How can we address a letter to this Correspondent?_

DAVID BROWN. _The lines_

"For he who fights and runs away

A. H. _The words which Cæsar addressed to Brutus were, "Tu quoque, Brute."_

INQUISITOR. _Stow tell us that_ Bevis Marks _is a corruption of_ Burie's Marks,--_a great house belonging to the Abbots of Bury having formerly stood there_.

J. L. S. _will find an article on the speech of the Clown, in_ Twelfth Night, _to Toby Belch and Sir Andrew Ague-cheek: "Did you never see the picture of We Three?" in our_ 5th Vol., p. 338., _&c._
