Passage in Coleridge's Table Talk.
—In Specimens of Coleridge's Table Talk (p. 165., Murray, 1851) appears the following:—
"So little did the early bishops and preachers think their Christian faith wrapped up in, and solely to be learned from, the New Testament, that I remember a letter from ——[1] to a friend of his, a bishop in the East, in which he most evidently speaks of the Christian scriptures as of works of which the bishop knew little or nothing."
[1] "I have lost the name which Mr. Coleridge mentioned."—Editor's Note.
My object is to know how this blank is to be filled up—probably by the name of some well-known father of the Church.
GEORGE LEWES.

"Men may live fools, but fools they cannot die."
—These words are given in Young's Night Thoughts as a quotation. Can any of your correspondents inform me whence they are taken?
