NOTICES TO CORRESPONDENTS
The matter is so generally understood with regard to the management of periodical works, that it is hardly necessary for the Editor to say that HE CANNOT UNDERTAKE TO RETURN MANUSCRIPTS; but on one point he wishes to offer a few words of explanation to his correspondents in general, and particularly to those who do not enable him to communicate with them except in print. They will see, on a very little reflection, that it is plainly his interest to take all he can get, and make the most, and the best of everything; and therefore he begs them to take for granted that their communications are received, and appreciated, even if our succeeding Numbers bear no proof of it. He is convinced that the want of specific acknowledgment will only be felt by those who have no idea of the labour and difficulty attendant on the hurried management of such a work, and of the impossibility of sometimes giving an explanation, when there really is one which would quite satisfy the writer, for the delay or non-insertion of his communication. Correspondents in such cases have no reason, and if they understoood an editor's position they would feel that they have no right, to consider themselves undervalued; but nothing short of personal experience in editorship would explain to them the perplexities and evil consequences arising from an opposite course.
COMMUNICATIONS RECEIVED.—Naso.—J.I.—W. Robson.—I.F.M.—I.S.—Laicus.—[Omega.]—Marianne.—Q.D.—G.H.B.—J.B.Yates—W.J.B.R—H.C.de St. C.—B.—F.E.—Rev. L.B. Larking (with many thanks).—I.P.L.(Oxford).—A.D.M—W.H.—C.—T.H.T.—L.C.R—I.F.M.
V. who is thanked for his letter, will see by a Note in a former part, that the work of Walter Mapes referred to by the Rev. L.B. Larking, is on the eve of publication by the Camden Society. Mr. Larking's query refers to the transcripts of that and other works made by Twysden.
