From Mr. Stamp's remarks the reader is led to conclude that the _text_ of the _Lettres Provinciales_ {278} is accompanied in some editions by observations of Wendrock (Nicole), likewise in the French language. Now such an assertion merely proves how carelessly some annotators will study the subjects they attempt to elucidate. Nicole _translated_ into Latin the _Provincial Letters_; and the masterly disquisitions which he added to the volume were, in their turn, "made French" by Mademoiselle de Joncoux, and annexed to the editions of 1700, 1712, 1735. As for Rachelius, if Mr. Stamp had taken the trouble to refer to Placcius' _Theatr. Anonym. et Pseud._, he night have seen (Art. 2,883.) that this worthy was merely a German _editor_, not a translator of Pascal cum Wendrock. The second blunder I have to notice has been perpetrated by the writer of an otherwise excellent article on Pascal in the last number of the _British Quarterly Review_ (No. 20. August). He mentions Bossuet's edition of the _Pensées_, speaks of "_the prelate_," and evidently ascribes to the famous Bishop of Meaux, _who died in_ 1704, the edition of Pascal's _Thoughts, published in_ 1779 _by Bossuet_.

GUSTAVE MASSON. _Porson's Epigram._--I made the following Note many years ago:-- "The late Professor Porson's own account of his academic visits to the Continent:-- "'I went to Frankfort, and got drunk With that most learn'd professor--Brunck: I went to Worts, and got more drunken, With that more learn'd professor Ruhncken.'" But I do not remember where or from whom I got it. Is anything known about it, or its authenticity? P.H.F. * * * * * QUERIES. "ORKNEYINGA SAGA."
