Notices to Correspondents.
_Owing to our being compelled to go to press this week ready for
publication on Thursday, and to the great mass of_ REPLIES TO MINOR QUERIES
_waiting for insertion, we have been compelled to omit our usual_ NOTES ON
BOOKS, &c.
QUAESTOR, _who calls our attention to the catalogue in which certain_ Hollar
_and_ Eyre _drawings are inserted, attached to the_ Gentleman's Magazine,
_is thanked. We were, however, already aware of it. The subject is too
important to be lost sight of._
A. Z. _is thanked. We should of course be glad if_ "N. & Q." _could be
purchased at all Railway Stations, but have no means of securing it. If
frequently asked for, we have no doubt that the supply will follow the
demand._
MONTROSE'S _reply has been anticipated. Thanks._
A QUERIST. _We wish our Correspondents would take the trouble of just
referring to our volumes before forwarding Queries upon well-known
subjects. We have repeatedly answered similar inquiries, and again only in
our last Number, by referring, for the history and illustration of_ "God
tempers the wind to the shorn lamb," _to our_ First Volume.
H. MARTIN. _Mr. Keble's edition of Hooker is more carefully edited than
Hanbury's._
ABHBA. _The reference must certainly be to Richard Sterne, Archbishop of
York, one of the supposed authors of the_ Whole Duty of Man: _see our_
Sixth Volume, p. 537.
A. P. HAYES. _We suspect the following is the title of the work
required:--"Pedestrianism; or, an Account of the Performances of celebrated
Pedestrians during the last and present Century: with a full Narrative of
Captain Barclay's public and private Matches: and an Essay on Training. By
Walter Thom. Aberdeen, 1813. 8vo."_
NEISON ON RAILWAY ACCIDENTS. _A Correspondent wishes to know where this
pamphlet may be seen, and whether it is on sale._
