old copies of the whole ; two In MSS. which are 

 referred to by Mr. Hannah ; the one in Pembroke's 

 Poems; and the one in that Lansdowne MS., 

 where it is ascribed to William Browne. Brydges 

 assigned it to Browne, when he published his 

 Original Poems from that MS. at the Lee Priory 

 Press in 1813, p. 5. Upon the whole, there seems 

 to be more direct evidence for Browne than any 

 other person. R. 



NOTES ON BOOKS, SALES, CATALOGUES, ETC. 



A History of the Articles of lielipion : to which is 

 added a Series of Documents from a. n. 1536 to a.d. 1615; 

 together with Illustrations from Contemporary Sources, 

 by Charles Haidwick, M. A , is the title of an octavo 

 volume, in which the author seeks to supply a want long 

 felt, especially by students for Holy Orders; namely, 

 a work which should show not the doctrine but the A?s- 

 tory of the Articles. For, as he well observes, while 

 many have enriched our literature by expositions of tlie 

 doctrine of the Articles, " no regular attempt has been 

 made to illustrate the framing of the Formulary itself, 

 either by viewing it in connection with the kindred pub- 

 lications of an earlier and a later date, or still more in its 

 relation to the period out of which it originally grew." 

 This attempt Mr. Hardwick has now made very suc- 

 cessfully ; and it is because his book is historical and 

 not polemical, that we feel called upon to notice it, 

 and to bear our testimony to its interest, and its value 

 to that " large class of readers who, anxious to be ac- 

 curately informed upon the subject, are precluded 

 from consulting the voluminous collectors, such as 

 Strvpe, Le Plat, or Wilkins." Such readers will find 

 Mr'. Hardwick's volume a most valuable handbook. 



A practical illustration that " union is strength," is 

 shown by a volume which has just reached us, entitled. 

 Reports and Papers read at the Meetings of the Architec- 

 tural Societies of the Archdeaconry of Northampton, the 

 Counties of Fork and Lincoln, and of the Architectural 

 and Archccological Societies of Bedfordshire and St. Alton's 

 during the Fear mdcccl. Presented gratuitously to the 

 Members. Had each of these Societies, instead of join- 

 ing with its fellows, put forth a separate Report, the 

 probability is, it would not only have involved such 

 Society in an expense far beyond what it would be justi- 

 fied in incurring, but the Report itself would not have 

 excited half the interest which will now be created by 

 a comparison of its papers with those of its associate 

 Societies; while, with the reduced expense, the be- 

 nefit of a larger circulation is secured. The volume 

 is one highly creditable to the Societies, and to the 

 authors of the various communications which are to be 

 found in it. 



Messrs. Puttick and Simpson (191. Piccadilly) will 

 be engaged on Monday and two following days in the 

 Sale of a Library rich in works on every branch of what 

 is now known as Folk Lore and Popular Antiquities, 

 and which may certainly, and with great propriety, be 

 styled " a very curious collection." The mere enu- 

 meration of the various subjects on the title-page of 

 be Catalogue, ranging, as they do, from Mesmerism 



and Magic, to Celestial Influences, Phrenology, Physi- 

 ognomy, &c., might serve for the Table of Contents to 

 a History of Human Weakness.
