De Lolme had a surprising extent of knowledge on all subjects, and could almost have rivalled Burke in all the variety of his illustrations. He was remarkably temperate and simple in his mode of living, and possessed an adinirable temper, All he said, with a strong turn for humour. indeed, upon the most serious subjects, was marked by something of an arch shrewdness. He did not much sacrifice to the Graces in point of dress and personal delicacy; but his conversation was always valuable; and it is much to be regretted, that a man of his talents and information was not shielded by patronage against the necessities of life, as he might have produced many useful and instructive works.

Europ. Mag. Vol. LI, May 1807

Our surmise, respecting the author of a Letter from Doncaster, mentioned in our last Acknowledgments, though not founded on slight grounds, we are now convinced was erroneous; and we desire the Gentleman against whom our resentment was so misdirected, to accept our apology for the injustice done him by the suspicion.

The person who actually wrote the letter alluded to, may save himself the trouble of any farther communications.

The friendly remarks of A Well Wisher are acknowledged with thanks, and shall be attended to. If he will look at the List of Portraits that have been given in the first Forty-nine Volumes of our Magazine, he will observe no want of respect and attention to our Naval and Military Heroes. The List may be seen at our Publisher's.

We are apprehensive that the Copper-plate Engraving of the Foreign Medal so obligingly offered us by Britannicus, would not be generally interesting to our readers: we therefore respectfully decline it; but if Britannicus could furnish any account of the Medal, we would have a neat Wood-Engraving made from it, to illustrate the article.

The Editor has to apologize to Mr. L. for not having, from the multiplicity of his avocations, had it in his power to call upon him. With respect to the subject of taste in architecture, &c., he has no doubt but that his communications will be extremely agreeable to the readers of the European Magazine. As to himself, the Editor goes further, and states, that his opinion is, that they may be also extremely useful to the public. If Mr. L. will be more explicit in his description of the size, subjects, and the manner in which he would have the plates engraved, the Editor will consult the Proprietor, and return him a speedy answer.

The Sonnet which J. Q. says has not been inserted, he will find in our fiftieth Volume, p. 477. The termination of the other that he has sent us is objectionable on the ground of coarseness.

G. R. of Islington's Hint to Lovers is liable to a similar objection.

MOGLI and IRGANORA, or the Iron Mountain, an Oriental Änecdote, by Joseph Moser, Esq., in our next.

The observations on the Church of ST. CHAD, Shrewsbury, shall be inserted ia

our next.

Epitaphs from Tomb stones, unless very remarkable, are inadmissible.

Dr. C. will find the article that he mentions in our fiftieth Volume, p. 210. Our jocose Correspondent, WILL SHOESTRING, should wait till the conclusion of a work, which, with such liberality, he appears disposed to cominend; if it should then merit half the praise that he seems inclined to bestow upon it, the Author will have reason to be satisfied.

B. B. must excuse us; we, like the Dumb Conjuror, only answer LAWFUL -The Reasoner, No. VI, in our next.
