"_Hip, hip, hurrah!_" (Vol. viii., pp. 88. 323. 605.).--Allow me to correct two mistakes with reference to the notes on this subject. The note ascribed to Dr. Burney, in a copy of Hawkins's _History of Music_, in the British Museum, is in the handwriting of Sir John Hawkins, as are _all_ the other notes scattered through the five volumes. These MS. notes have been included in the recent reprint of this valuable work. In the hurry of transcribing, Mr. Chappell (as your correspondent A. F. B. suggests) _misread_ the MS. note. In future we must read "_hop_ drinkers," and not "_hep_ drinkers." EDWARD F. RIMBAULT. _Belgium Ecclesiastical Antiquities_ (Vol. vii., p. 65.).--The inquiry of AJAX has only been recently brought under my notice. In reply, I refer him to _Recueil Heraldique et Historique des Familles de Belgique_. This is the finest work on the antiquities, civil, military, and ecclesiastic, of that country: it was printed at Antwerp by Rapell fils, and is in five large 4to. volumes. I saw a copy sold in Malines for about 3l.: it is now become more scarce, and probably could not be obtained under 4l. HENRY DAVENEY. * * * * * Miscellaneous. NOTES ON BOOKS, ETC. The Faussett Collection has, as our readers are probably aware, become the property not of the public, but of a private individual, Mr. Joseph Mayer, F.S.A., of Liverpool, who, with praiseworthy liberality, has resolved to make the Collection as useful as possible to the public. He has therefore determined to publish, under the title of _Saxon Antiquities from the Kentish Tumuli_, Mr. Faussett's copious MS. accounts of the opening of the Barrows, and of the discoveries made in them; accompanied by numerous illustrations of the more important objects themselves, especially of the world-renowned Gold Brooches, which exhibit such exquisite specimens of the artistic skill of our ancestors. The work will appear under the editorship of Mr. C. Roach Smith, who will illustrate Mr. Faussett's discoveries by the results of kindred investigations in France and Germany. The subscription price is Two Guineas, and the number of copies will, as far as possible, be regulated by the list of subscribers.
