NOTICES TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Adolphus’ History of England.  “INDACATOR” is informed that the continuation of this work is proceeding with, as fast as Mr. L. Adolphus’ professional duties will admit; and we are sure that gentleman would at all times readily explain, to those entitled to ask him what progress has been made in it.

Our numerous Correspondents will, we trust, excuse our specially acknowledging the receipt of their various communications, and agree with us in the propriety of economising our limited room, so as to insert rather than acknowledge the articles with which they have favoured us.

A Third Edition of Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4., forming Part I., is reprinted, so that complete sets of our work may again be had.

A CHART of ANCIENT ARMOUR, from the ELEVENTH to the SEVENTEENTH CENTURIES; containing Eighteen Figures, with a Description and a Sketch of the Progress of European Armour.  By JOHN HEWITT.

“A graphic outline of the subject of military costume during the period of its greatest interest to the English antiquary.  The author has made a judicious selection of the examples, chiefly from the rich series of monumental effigies; and, in the brief text which accompanies these illustrations, a useful resume will be found of a subject which, not many years since was attainable only through the medium of costly publications.”—­Archaeological Journal.
