Notices to Correspondents.
We have postponed Icon's friendly letter on the Shakspeare Correspondence until next week, when we propose to accompany it by some few observations of our own. We shall take that opportunity also of noticing a communication with which we have been favoured by Mr. Singer.
Z. will find some illustrations of his Queries on Passages from Milton and Gray discussed in our present Number. The other shall appear in an early Number.
A. B. C. It does not follow that, because we thought the one paper sent us by this Correspondent worthy of insertion in our columns, every other which he may favour us with is to be printed.
Greek Inscription on a Font.—We have been reminded by several friendly Correspondents that this Query, inserted ante, p. 198., had been discussed in our preceding Volume, pp. 178, 366. 417.
Z. Mr. Winston's book, published by Parker of Oxford, will give him the best information on the subject of Stained or Coloured Glass.
R. W. E. (Clifton). Would our Correspondent oblige us by forwarding a copy of the 1st No. of the Curiosities of Bristol and its Neighbourhood?
C. will find that his Query respecting Grinning like a Cheshire Cat has been anticipated, "N. & Q.," Vol. ii., pp. 377. 412. Vol. v., p. 402.
J. E.'s Query has been long since put and answered, as he will see by an article in the present Number.
T. D. S. (Ruthin). In all probability there is a deficiency of acetic acid in your developing solution, or the acetic acid is impure and is adulterated with sulphuric acid. A few drops of nitrate of baryta would test the purity.
Colouring Collodion Pictures.—We should like to see a specimen of Mr. Lane's skill, and should be very happy to insert his process.
Photography at Bath.—We understand that a pamphlet impugning the correctness of some processes given in "N. & Q." has been published at Bath, but, as we know neither the author's name nor the publisher, have to request information on those points from some Bath photographer.
Errata.—In p. 194., for "bytleing" read "bything;" for "byth" read "bytl.;" p. 195., the 24th line from the bottom the page, for "the prenzie Angelo", read "the prenze Angelo;" p. 207., for "parish of West Fetton" read "parish of West Felton."
A few complete sets of "Notes and Queries," Vols. i. to vii., price Three Guineas and a Half, may now be had; for which early application is desirable.
"Notes and Queries" is published at noon on Friday, so that the Country Booksellers may receive Copies in that night's parcels, and deliver them to their Subscribers on the Saturday.

NERVOUSNESS, &c.—BARRY,
DU BARRY & CO.'S HEALTH-RESTORING
FOOD for INVALIDS and INFANTS.
THE REVALENTA ARABICA FOOD,

A few out of 50,000 Cures:—
Cure, No. 71, of dyspepsia; from the Right Hon. the Lord Stuart de Decies:—"I have derived considerable benefits from your Revalenta Arabica Food, and consider it due to yourselves and the public to authorise the publication of these lines.—Stuart de Decies."
Cure, No. 49,832:—"Fifty years' indescribable agony from dyspepsia, nervousness, asthma, cough, constipation, flatulency, spasms, sickness at the stomach and vomitings have been removed by Du Barry's excellent food.—Maria Jolly, Wortham Ling, near Diss, Norfolk."

Cure, No. 4,206:—"Eight years' dyspepsia, nervousness, debility, with cramps, spasms, and nausea, for which my servant had consulted the advice of many, have been effectually removed by Du Barry's delicious food in a very short time. I shall be happy to answer any inquiries.—Rev. John W. Flavell, Ridlington Rectory, Norfolk."
Dr. Wurzer's Testimonial.
"Bonn, July 19, 1852.
"This light and pleasant Farina is one of the most excellent, nourishing, and restorative remedies, and supersedes, in many cases, all kinds of medicines. It is particularly useful in confined habit of body, as also diarrhœa, bowel complaints, affections of the kidneys and bladder, such as stone or gravel; inflammatory irritation and cramp of the urethra, cramp of the kidneys and bladder, strictures, and hemorrhoids. This really invaluable remedy is employed with the most satisfactory result, not only in bronchial and pulmonary complaints, where irritation and pain are to be removed, but also in pulmonary and bronchial consumption, in which it counteracts effectually the troublesome cough; and I am enabled with perfect truth to express the conviction that Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica is adapted to the cure of incipient hectic complaints and consumption.
"Dr. Rud Wurzer.
