Notices to Correspondents.

TITLE PAGE AND INDEX TO VOLUME THE THIRD. We this week publish the Index to our Third Volume; and in doing so cannot refrain from directing attention to its extent and completeness. We are aware that the future value of "NOTES AND QUERIES" must materially depend upon the state of its Indices: we have therefore spared no pains upon their compilation; with what success our labours have been attended, it is of course for our Readers to determine.

W. P. A. The late Duke of York married Sept. 29, 1791, Frederica Charlotte Ulrica Catharina, Princess Royal of Prussia; and died at York House, St. James's, on the 5th January, 1827.

SPERIEND is thanked for his hints, which shall not be lost sight of.

AN M. D. Received, and shall be attended to.

WAAGEN'S ARTS AND ARTISTS. Will the correspondent who wants this send his name and address to the Publisher?

REPLIES RECEIVED.—Salting the Dead—The word "Prenzie"—Nao, a Ship—Pope's Honest Factor—Miss—The Vine of St. Francis—Gray and Chaucer—English Sapphics—Nervous—Senage—Hogan—Histoire des Sévérambes.

The commencement of a New Volume with our last Number affords a favourable opportunity to gentlemen resident in the country to commence the work. The Subscription for the Stamped Edition of "NOTES AND QUERIES" is ten shillings and twopence for six months, which may be paid by Post-Office Order, drawn in favour of our publisher, MR. GEORGE BELL, No. 186. Fleet Street.

CIRCULATION OF OUR PROSPECTUSES BY CORRESPONDENTS. The suggestion of T. E. H., that by way of hastening the period when we shall be justified in permanently enlarging our Paper to 24 pages, we should forward copies of our Prospectus to correspondents who would kindly enclose them to such friends as they think likely, from their love of literature, to become subscribers to "NOTES AND QUERIES," has already been acted upon by several friendly correspondents, to whom we are greatly indebted. We shall be most happy to forward Prospectuses for this purpose to any other of our friends able and willing thus to assist towards increasing our circulation.

VOL. III., neatly bound in cloth, and with very copious Index, will be ready on Wednesday next, price 9s. 6d. VOLS. I. and II. may still be had, price 9s. 6d. each.

NOTES AND QUERIES may be procured, by order, of all Booksellers and Newsvenders. It is published at noon on Friday, so that our country Subscribers ought not to experience any difficulty in procuring it regularly. Many of the country Booksellers, &c., are, probably, not yet aware of this arrangement, which will enable them to receive NOTES AND QUERIES in their Saturday parcels.

All communications for the Editor of NOTES AND QUERIES should be addressed to the care of MR. BELL, No. 186. Fleet Street.

ILLUSTRATIONS AND ENQUIRIES RELATING TO MESMERISM. Part I. By the REV. S. R. MAITLAND, D.D. F.R.S. F.S.A. Sometime Librarian to the late Archbishop of Canterbury, and Keeper of the MSS. at Lambeth.

"One of the most valuable and interesting pamphlets we ever read."—Morning Herald.

"This publication, which promises to be the commencement of a larger work, will well repay serious perusal."—Ir. Eccl. Journ.

"A small pamphlet in which he throws a startling light on the practices of modern Mesmerism."—Nottingham Journal.

"Dr. Maitland, we consider, has here brought Mesmerism to the 'touchstone of truth,' to the test of the standard of right or wrong. We thank him for this first instalment of his inquiry, and hope that he will not long delay the remaining portions."—London Medical Gazette.

"The Enquiries are extremely curious, we should indeed say important. That relating to the Witch of Endor is one of the most successful we ever read. We cannot enter into particulars in this brief notice; but we would strongly recommend the pamphlet even to those who care nothing about Mesmerism, or angry (for it has come to this at last) with the subject."—Dublin Evening Post.

"We recommend its general perusal as being really an endeavour, by one whose position gives him the best facilities, to ascertain the genuine character of Mesmerism, which is so much disputed."—Woolmer's Exeter Gazette.

"Dr. Maitland has bestowed a vast deal of attention on the subject for many years past, and the present pamphlet is in part the result of his thoughts and inquiries. There is a good deal in it which we should have been glad to quote ... but we content ourselves with referring our readers to the pamphlet itself."—Brit Mag.
