The Sanscrit must be read with a French pronunciation, being from Balbi's _Atlas Ethnographique_; the Hungarian Gypsy as German, and the last as Spanish; the two latter are from Borrow's _Zuicali_, vol. ii. p. 118.

Can any one throw light upon the capital letters? I give it copied exactly from Sir Nicholas Tindal's writing, with his observation beneath, and may safely venture to warrant _his_ accuracy. It might be supposed to be a chronogram, but for the introduction of the letter "E." "_Motto from a Dial formed on the two Sides of the Angle of a House at Karlsbad._ "'Hora Hor[I]s [CE]d[I]t, pere[V]nt s[IC] Te[M]pora nob[I]s, [V]t t[I]b[I] f[I]nal[I]s s[I]t bona, [VIV]e benè.' "The letters which are written in capitals were so in the original inscription, and were coloured red: probably the anagram of some one's name is concealed under them." Having been a collector of existing dial mottoes for many years, I shall feel greatly obliged to any of your correspondents who will inform me of remarkable ones in their own neighborhood. There are four--one in English, one in Latin, one in Greek, and one in Hebrew--on the keep of Carlisle Castle; but though I possess the three former, I have not the last, and should be very glad to obtain it, if possible. There is a motto at Bonneville in Switzerland, as I have been told: "Soli Soli Soli." What can be the interpretation thereof? Of course I am acquainted with Leadbetter's _Art of Dialling_, and the curious list of mottoes he gives, together with the still more curious translations of the same; as _e.g._ "Aut Cæsar, aut nullus." (I shine, or shroud!) Or-- "Sic transit gloria mundi:" (So marches the god of day!!) But what I want is, mottoes from dials actually in existence. HERMES. SUPPRESSED EPILOGUE BY DRYDEN. Mr. Payne Collier communicates to the _Athenæum_ of the 22nd November, 1851, an interesting letter relative to an unspoken epilogue to Dryden, and Nat Lee's famous tragedy of _The Duke of Guise_. This rare composition, entitled "Another Epilogue intended to have been spoken to the Play before it was forbidden last Summer, written by Mr. Dryden," occurs in conjunction with the Prologue and Epilogue which were actually spoken, upon a separate sheet of foolscap; in which shape, as Mr. Collier informs us, they were often printed for sale at the playhouse doors. Mr. Collier's acceptable communication suggests a Query or two. At the end of my copy of this play, the 4to. edit. of 1687, is the following "ADVERTISEMENT.
