"Εις Θεος Εις Μεσιτης; or, an Attempt to show how far the Philosophical Notion of a Plurality of Worlds is consistent, or not so, with the language of the Holy Scriptures. By the Rev. Edward Nares, A.M., Rector of Biddenden, Kent, and late Fellow of Merton College, Oxford. 8vo. London, 1801." The author, I may add, was a friend of the eminent geologist, De Luc. J. M. _Gough, the Irish Portion of his Camden: Ledwich._--The following cutting from a Dublin bookseller's Catalogue (Connolly, 6. Chancery Place, Feb. 1852) may perhaps find a corner in "N. & Q." Dr. Ledwich was the Will-o'-the-Wisp that led Gough astray in the matter of Irish antiquities. Few, indeed, of the "additions" made to honest Camden's original are of value, many of them are worse than valueless:-- "ANTIQUITIES OF IRELAND, from Gough's edition of Camden's Britannia, profusely illustrated with plates and maps from various works, including Ortelliu's (Ortelius') rare map of Ireland, all of which were inserted by the Rev. Mr. Ledwich, the Irish Antiquarian, royal folio, half russia, neat, 3_l._ 10_s._ "This unique copy was presented by Mr. Gough to the Rev. Mr. Ledwich, and bears Gough's autograph: 'For the Rev. Mr. Ledwich. From the author. 1789.' "Mr. Ledwich presented the book to Wm. Monck Mason, Esq., having written the following memorandum:-- "'I assisted Mr. Gough in this edition, and he spontaneously promised a copy of the work in 3 vols. folio, but put me off with this paltry volume. So he served my valuable friend, Mr. Beauford of Athy. "'Viveret in terris te si quis avarior uno?' "'_Horace._ "'E. L., F.A.S., 1790.' "A copy of the original note [to Mason] inserted in the book-- "'York Street, 3rd Feb. 1817. "'Dear Sir--Having parted with all my books, for not one of my family could or would read them, I have retained what I send you. It is a small return for the presents you made me. "'Small as it is, have the goodness to accept of it as a testimony of my obligations and friendship. "'Believe me yours sincerely, "'E. LEDWICH.' "The work is Gough's Britannia, the Irish Part."
