We earnestly solicit all our literary friends to communicate to us any scarce and valuable tracts, connected with Classical, Biblical, and Oriental Literature, that they may think worthy to be preserved and made public. The Poem of Festus Avienus is unavoidably postponed. An Essay on the "Alexandria" of Lycophron shall find an early insertion. The article from Granta has been received. We shall insert in our next Number the Prologue and Epilogue recited this year at the Westminster School Plays. We shall always feel honored by Mr. G's suggestions. The tract Canteri Syntagma de ratione emendandi Græcos Auctores shall certainly have a place in our next. We very reluctantly omit the Verses sent by K. L. P. because they are not in a Classical language. But we entreat his future favors, for the sake of the admirers of learning, taste, and elegance. Our Correspondent in the North, we hope, has not forgotten his promised remarks, On the composition and structure of the Greek Sapphic Ode. Remarks on the Prometheus will be continued. Mr. Barker's Appendix to the China of the Classics will appear in No. ix. Mr. P's Remarks on the Curse of Kehama will also appear. We hope soon to favor our Readers with some inedited Notes on Horace, by Dr. Parr; as well as with those already published in the earlier Numbers of the British Critic. The Researches of the German Literati will be continued in No. IX. No. iv. of Conjectura Critica in Auctores Græcos is unavoidably postponed. F. D's. remarks on the Antique Ring are received. The Supplement to the 49th Chapter of Genesis came too late for our present Number. We thank our friend B. for his valuable hints, and we beg to inform him, and the rest of our readers, that we shall insert in our future Numbers, the following interesting articles Account of Dr. Bentley-Bentley's Notes on Lucan, from Cumberland's edition-Bentley's Animadversions and Remarks on Callimachus-his Annotations on the two first Comedies of Aristophanes-his Emendations on the Fragments of Menander and Philemon-also, his Remarks on Collins' discourse of thinking about the varia Lectiones of the New Testamentand Cumberland's account of the Tragedians taken from Bentley's Notes. Al Mohâlebbee is approved. J. O's. article is intended for an early insertion. Mr. Brent's article shall appear in our next. Mr. W's. Biblical Criticism came too late for our present Number. Notice to the "Answer to the Defence of Dr. G. S. Clarke's Hebrew Criticism," &c. has been received. We have in our possession some unpublished Essays of the late Professor Scott, of Aberdeen, On the Inquiry into the causes of the diversity of human character in various ages, nations, and individuals, which we shall insert in our future Numbers. We shall most readily insert Mr. Wrangham's Seatonian Prize Poem for 1811. M. D. B. has our best thanks for the favor of his Collations of Latin MSS. and we trust he will continue to supply us from so respectable a quarter. Dr. C's. article on The Bible, No. II. is postponed. W. N's. Remarks on the integrity of the Hebrew text, &c. shall appear in our next. We shall soon continue the Critique of Ernesti's Cicero from the Bibliotheca Critica. We thank M. for submitting to our notice the Account of the Editio Princeps of the Etymologicon Magnum, by Larcher. It shall certainly appear. Valckenaer's Notes on Callimachus, mentioned in the notes on Xenophon's Memorabilia in our sixth No. are destined for insertion. We shall thank any of our readers to send us a correct copy of the Greek Ode on the Passion of Christ, a Prize, by Mr. M. of Oxford. We invite any of our readers to give us a brief account of Bentley's Phalaris, and Dawes' Miscellanea Critica, with some notice of what has been done since their time. We must assure T. D. that we cannot give admission to personal attacks. A field of fair and liberal discussion is open in the Journal; but opinions and arguments are the only legitimate subjects of dispute. G. R's. translations of Diodorus Siculus, though correct, are not sufficiently elegant. We shall be glad to hear again from him. Every thing which tends to illustrate the Scriptures, and promote the cause of Religion, will be gladly received by the Classical Journal. We shall feel obliged to our readers, if they will take every opportunity of requesting any of their friends, who have travelled for the sake of information, to transmit to us whatever researches or valuable discoveries they may think worth communicating to the public. For this purpose Sir William Ouseley has kindly promised to send whatever he may collect in his Travels to Persia with the Embassy. We shall be happy to receive from our friends any Literary notice on subjects connected with CLASSICAL, BIBLICAL, and ORIENTAL Literature. INDEX. A. ABEN Ezra iii, 175, 389.
