Chapter V: F. S. will find an answer to his Query respecting "Auster Tenements"

Text size

_in our first Vol_., p. 307.

J. C., _who inquires respecting the author of the oft-quoted saying_, "Quem Deus vult perdere," _is referred to our first Vol._, pp. 347. 351. 421. 476.; _and to a further illustration of it in_ No. 50., p. 317.

_We have received_ "A Plan for a Church-History Society," _by the Rev. Dr. Maitland, to which we will call the attention of our readers next week._

W. L. B.'_s description of the coin found at Horndon is not sufficiently clear. It is, doubtless, a billon piece of the lower empire. If he will send us an impression, in_ sealing-wax, _we may probably be enabled to give him a description of it._

CLERICUS. "As Lazy as Ludlam's Dog" _is one of the sayings quoted by Southey in_ The Doctor. See, too, NOTES AND QUERIES, Vol. I., pp. 382. 475.

ARMIGER _will find a letter addressed to him at the Publisher's._

VOLUME THE FIRST OF NOTES AND QUERIES, _with Title-page and very copious Index, is now ready, price_ 9s. 6d., _bound in cloth, and may be had, by order, of all Booksellers and Newsmen._

_The Monthly Part for October, being the Fifth of_ Vol. II., _is also now ready, price_ 1s. 3d.

Errata. In No. 51. p. 347, for "[Greek: theion]" read "[Greek: theôn];"
for "Perchi" read "Perchè;" and also the curious misprints (caused by a
transposition of type) alluded to in the following note:--

"Referring to my friend R. G.'s 'Bibliographical Queries' (which are
always worth referring to), will you allow me to ask yourself, and him
if you cannot tell, whether it is by the mistake of your printer, or of
the original one, that in the fourth Query (p. 324. line 10.) the
letters of two words are so transposed that 'Vrbe germanie' is turned
into 'Vrbanie germe?'"
