E. N. W. The figures above the letters in the motto subscribed to the verses which Joannes Rombouts addressed to Verstegan, point out his Christian name, Joannes; those below the letters, his surname, Rombouts.
R. H. We are unable to furnish any information respecting the volume of IRISH ANTIQUITIES to which our correspondent refers. We will willingly give insertion to any Query on the subject of Ogham Inscriptions generally.
E. S. T. Will this correspondent kindly adapt his information on Bier Ways as a reply to the Query on the subject?
T. P. The "Notes on Almanacks" are under consideration.
LION SYMBOLICAL OF THE RESURRECTION. We owe it to JARLTZBERG to explain with reference to C. P.***'s remark, p. 450., that a long reply to MR. EASTWOOD'S Query was forwarded by him at the time; its length indeed it was which necessarily led to its non-insertion at the time.

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.
Errata.—Page 322. col. 1. l. 20., for "conscriptu" read "conscripta;" and l. 29. for "Madingi" read "Wadingi;" p 444. col. 1. l. 18., for "Upon" read "Uprose." In the Tabula Regum, p. 457., "scotus" in the fifth line should be "secundus;" in the fourteenth line, "xxiiij." should be "xx/iiij.," fourscore, not twenty-four; and in l. 23. for "xliij." read "xliiij."

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.
