AUBERY JUNIOR The coincidence is certainly curious. When the 3rd of November was fixed for the first appearance of "NOTES AND QUERIES," it was little thought that it was the anniversary of the birth of John Aubrey, the most noted Querist, if not the queerest _Noter_, of all English antiquaries. His "Mem. to ask Mr. ----" no doubt indirectly suggested our title.
PHILOBIBLION is thanked for his suggestion, that we should "print lists of all the books printed by the Roxburgh, Abbotsford, Camden, Spottiswoode, and other publishing Clubs and Societies." His suggestion had, however, been anticipated: arrangements are making for giving not only the information suggested by PHILOBIBLION, but also particulars of the works issued by the different Continental publishing Societies, such as _La Société de L'Histoire de France_, _Der Literaische Verein in Stuttgart_, and the _Svenska Fornskrift-Sällskap_ of Stockholm, so that the English reader may be put into possession of facts connected with these Societies not to be found elsewhere.
MANCHESTER (Box 720.) is thanked for his suggestion.
BOOKS AND ODD VOLUMES WANTED. We believe that this will prove one of the most useful divisions of our weekly sheet. Gentlemen who may be unable to meet with any book or volume of which they are in want may, upon furnishing name, date, size, &c., have it inserted in this List _free of cost_. Persons having such volumes to dispose of are requested to send reports of price, &c. to Mr. Bell, our publisher.
This day is published, price 2s. 6d.; by post, 3s.
