BONSALL will, upon reference to Vol. iii., pp. 13. and 44., see that his Replies have been anticipated. We shall be glad to receive the "Notes on Pepys" which he kindly offers.
H. SAVICK, on reference to p. 264. of our present Volume, will see that the author of The Modest Enquiry is Henry Care. Bishop Pearson's Dissertationes have not, we believe, been translated.
J. B. C. Akerman's Numismatic Manual will probably best answer our correspondent's purpose. The communication referred to by him is one of many on nearly the same subject, which have been reserved for publication at some future time.
JAMES C. The "Dissertation on Dunmore Fort" has not reached us.
Will N. H. kindly favour MR. OFFOR with a sight of the edition of The Visions in his possession? If left with our publisher, it shall be forwarded to him, and duly returned to N. H. as he may direct.

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.
NIMROUD OBELISK.—A reduced Model of this interesting Obelisk is just published, having the Cuneiform Writing, and five rows of figures on each side, carefully copied from that sent by Dr. Layard to the British Museum. The Model is in Black Marble, like the original, and stands twenty inches high. Mr. Tennant, 149. Strand, London, will be happy to show a copy, and receive Subscribers' names. He has also Models of several Egyptian Obelisks.
