CIRCULATION OF OUR PROSPECTUSES BY CORRESPONDENTS. _The suggestion of_

forward copies of our_ Prospectus _to correspondents who would kindly
enclose them to such friends as they think likely, from their love of
literature, to become subscribers to "NOTES AND QUERIES," has already
been acted upon by several friendly correspondents, to whom we are
greatly indebted. We shall be most happy to forward Prospectuses for
this purpose to any other of our friends able and willing thus to assist
towards increasing our circulation._
