J. Edmeston (Homerton). The document forwarded by our 

 Correspondent is certainly not a genuine one; and we are sur- 

 prised that it shouM have been printed as genuine in a work issued 

 by any respectable firm. 



Franciscus has, we think, mistaken the spirit of L. J.'s com- 

 munication ; and a second perusal will, we have no doubt, con- 

 vince him, that when L. J. contents himself with expressing his 

 belief of certain facts , the reasons which he adduces for such belief 

 would have justified him in assutning a more dogmatic tone. 

 That the first issue, at least, of the first edition o/ Junius'? Letters 

 (// not the entire edition) was without an Index, L. J. has, as it 

 seems to us, clearly established. The discovery and subsequent 

 sale of an edition found in Mr. G. Woodfall's warehouses is a fact 

 well known to the second-hand booksellers. 



Photography. The great interest which this sidiject is exciting 

 among so many of our Renders increases our regret at being com- 

 pelled to postpone Dr. Diamond's article on the Talbotype and 

 JVax Paper Processes until next week. 



Archer's Photographic Camera. }Ve have just received 

 from Mr. Brown a letter, from which the following is an extract : 



" That camera was originally designed by Mr. Archer, some 

 six or seven years back ; and although the present camera, a> 

 sold by Mr. Archer, has several improvements in it of mine, and 

 which no one has more kindly acknowledged than Mr. Archer, 

 still they are all improvements in detail, and have nothing to d» 

 with the originality of it, which solely belongs to Mr. Archer." 



We have inserted this, in justice to all parties , — to Mr. Archer, 

 as the original inventor ; to Mr. Brown, as one whose " improve- 

 ments in detail " rendered it available for the collodion process 

 {for Mr. Brown, while properly anxious to give to Mr. Archer 

 every credit, does not contradict this assertion) ; and to Dr. 

 Diamond, as confirmatory of his statement in our last Number, 

 p. 396., that this camera was "first suggested by Mr. Archer, and 

 eventually rendered available by Mr. Brown." 



Pursuits of Literature. B. Pride is referred to owr 1st Vol., 

 p. 212., where he will find some clever verses by George Sieeveng 

 on Mathias, the author of this biting satire. 



F. B— w. We have a communication for this Correspondent 

 How cfin we address it to him T 



A. C. (Cork). The seal forwarded is very modern, and cer^ 

 tainly not that of any Religious House. Gules three lions passant 

 in pale argent are the arms of the very ancient family of Gifford, 

 and may be seen in the quarterings of many of our old families 

 who descend through the Clares and Marshals, Eurls of Ptmbroke. 



S. WsoN. Would this Correspondent add to the obligation 

 already conferred upon Griffin by lending him his copy of Neck 

 or Nothing for a few days, as the book does not appear to be in 

 the British Museum ? We shall be glad to be the medium of for- 

 warding it to Griffin, and returning it to our Correspondent. 



L. G. How may a letter be addressed to this Correspondent ? 



Records op the Remembrancer's Office. We have to correct 

 some errors in our Reply to J. W. in last week's No. (p. 391.)- 

 The Queen's Remembranar's Records, from the earliest period, 

 viz. Henry III. to 1828, are at Carlton Ride, as well as the Lord 

 Treasurer's Remembrancer's Records for the same period, tvhich 

 last are very numerous. The only records at the Queen's 

 Remembrancer' s Office are those dated since 1837, except the Red 

 Book of the Exchequer. The records can be seen between the 

 hours often and four. 



D'Oyley and Mant's Commentary. We do not know of any 

 edition publishing in parts. There is a cheap edition, in three 

 volumes 8wo., issued by the Society for the Promotion of Christian 

 Knowledge. 



R. I. A. is rtferred to our Fifth Volume, p. 522., for an explan- 

 ation of the name Cuddy, applied in the North to the ass. 



The number o/ Replies to Minor Queries which we had wait- 

 ing for insertion has compelled us to omit our tcsual Notes on 

 Books, SfC. 



Back Numbers of Notes and Queries. Fttll Price will be 

 given for clean copies qfNos. 19. 27, 28, 29, 30. 59, GO, and 61.
