REVOCATION OF THE EDICT OF NANTES.--_We cannot better rectify the error,

by printing entire the following communication:_
"British Museum,
Jan. 17, 1854.
"Sir,
"An extremely clever and interesting review of Pineton de Chambrun's
_History of the Persecutions of the Protestants by the French King in
the Principality of Orange_ appeared in the _Journal des Débats_ of the
30th Nov. last. This article is dated from the British Museum (in the
reading room of which establishment it may very probably have been
written), and signed _William Jones_. As I am the only person in the
British Museum bearing the surname of Jones, the article has been
attributed to me, in very courteous terms, by a correspondent of the
"N. & Q." As I cannot claim the merit of being the writer, I beg to
place this correction of MR. MACRAY'S very natural mistake in your
hands, to be used in such manner as you may think proper.
"I have the honour to be, Sir,
"Your very obedient servant,
"J. WINTER JONES."
F. G. S. (Colchester). _We have forwarded to_ DR. DIAMOND _your request,
and as soon as "light and leisure" permit, you shall receive some copies of
the portrait._
