ACKNOWLEDGMENTS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

The Latin speech delivered at the Hague; the Adjudication of Prizes by the Imperial Society of St. Petersburgh, and other favours, are received, and shall be attended to,

The Anecdote of Selim I, in our next.

We do not think it prudent to revive the grievance alluded to by Anglicus.

The main circumstance in the article sent us by Junius Brutus is too horrible for contemplation,

We shall gladly receive the life of the poet mentioned by W.

Correspondents, whose contributions are neither inserted nor noticed, may be assured that we consider them as either wanting interest in their subject, or merit In their composition, to render them acceptable to our readers. So overwhelmed as we are with pieces of this sort, both in prose and rhyme, it would be an endless trouble to us, and often very painful to our feelings, were we in all cases to be obliged to state our reasons for suppressing them. Authors cannot doubt that it is our interest, and of course our wish, to give insertion to such productions as we think will add to the credit of the Magazine, and the gratification of its readers. On the other hand, the natural partiality of writers to their own productions does not qualify them always to form correct judgments as to the reception they would be likely to meet with from the public. Dr. Johnson's Rambler, No. 56, we recommend to perusal, as much to the purpose.

The Addition to Louisa de Vernon came too late.
