"Notes and Queries is become now an established institution, being possessed of that great element of immortality, an individual character and purpose. When a man, or a book, or a periodical, has no strictly individual course, but is like fifty, or a hundred, or a thousand other new books or periodicals, he or it may live and prosper doubtless, but the time will also come when he or it must die. There may be three score and ten years for a man, three score and ten months for a journal, three score and ten weeks for a book; but the time still comes soon when each must go hence and be seen no more. Force of individual character is the sal sapientum, the turner of base metal into gold, the preserving salt that is alone able to save from decay whatever perishable thing it touches. This Notes and Queries has; and because it has this, we may boldly predict that it shall be savoury in the mouths of generations yet to come. Literary men, centuries after we are gone, will be taking in their Notes and Queries: and the books that shall be hereafter, will be made the richer for the odd and interesting and important Notes they furnish to the authors who contribute Queries for the sake of getting them."-Examiner, 28th July, 1855. 4554 NOTICES et Extraits des Manuscrits de la Bibliotheque du Roi, et d'autres bibliothèques, publiés par l'Institut royal de France, faisant suite aux Notices et Extraits lus au Comité, établi dans l'Académie des Inscriptions et Belles Lettres, Vols.

Norimbergae, 1793-1803 The most elaborate and trustworthy record yet published of the early history of printing, it comes down to the year 1536, though the title-page of the first volume limits it to the fifteenth century. Panzer's great compilation consists of eleven volumes, published at intervals in the course of eleven years, the first in 1793, the last in 1803. At first the author proposed to carry his Annals no further than the year 1500, and he achieved his purpose in five volumes; he then extended his design, and carried the work up to 1536 in six volumes more. There is, it may be remarked, one very serious defect in Panzer's arrangements. While he inserted books in every other European language -Swedish, Dutch, Bohemian, &c.-he systematically omitted all those in German, because they were included, or intended to to be included, in a separate work, the Annalen der ältern deutschen Litteratur,'-which he unfortunately did not live to bring down further than the year 1526. 4560 PAQUOT, Mémoires pour l'histoire littéraire des Pays-Bas, de la Principauté de Liège, etc. 18 vols. fine paper, uncut, 32s Louvain, 1763-70 "Cet ouvrage se distingue par des details intéressants et une certaine exactitude."-Brunet. 4561 PELISSON, Histoire de l'Académie françoise, depuis son établissement jusqu'à 1652, 2 vols. 12mo. second edition, fine copy, veau fauve, 5s Paris, 1730 4562 PERCEL, de l'usage des Romans avec une Bibliothèque des Romans, 2 vols. 12mo. 4563 sd. 5s the same, 2 vols. 12mo. calf, 5s Amst. 1734 1734 The second volume is entirely devoted to the Bibliography of the " Romances of Chivalry.” 4564 PIETERS, Annales de l'Imprimerie Elseverienne, 8vo. sd. 7s 6d Gand, 1852 4565 PINELO (A. de Leon) Bibliotheca Oriental y Occidental, Nautica y Geographica, los Escritores de las Indias Orientales, China, Tartaria, Japan, Persia, Armenia, Etiopia, y otras Partes, 3 vols. folio, LARGE PAPER, bds. £2. 16s 1737 etc. Priced 1822, Thorpe, £6. 68; 1845, Rodd, £3.
