Notices to Correspondents.
R. C. P. "Thal," "Theam," "Thealonia," in the Charter referred to, are certain rights of toll, of which the peculiarities will be found in any Law Dictionary; and "Infangethe" was the privilege of judging any thief within the fee.
S. P. Q. R. We must refer this correspondent also to a Law Dictionary for a full explanation of the terms Sergeant and Sergeantcy. A Deed Poll is plain at the top, and is so called to distinguish it from a Deed Indented, which is cut in and out at the top.
Tyro. The work quoted as Gammer Gurton in the Arundines Cami, is the collection of Nursery Rhymes first formed by Ritson, and of which an enlarged edition was published by Triphook in 1810, under the title of Gammer Gurton's Garland, or The Nursery Parnassus, &c.
R. C. The music, &c. of "The Roast Beef of England," "Britons Strike Home," and "The Grenadier's March," will be found in Mr. Chappell's Collection of National English Airs. Webbe's Glee, "Hail Star of Brunswick," the words of which are by Young, may doubtless be got at Cramer's. We cannot point out a collection containing the words and music of "Croppies lie down."

A. E. B. is thanked for his suggested monogram, which shall not be lost sight of: also for his friendly criticism.
