ircular, with a motto round each, and
Latin verses at foot. My edition was published at Utrecht, MDCXIII.

I write rather in the hope of eliciting information, than of attempting to
give any, on a subject which appears to me to deserve farther inquiry.

_Campvere, Privileges of_ (Vol. vii., pp. 262. 440.).--Will your
contributors J. D. S. and J. L. oblige me with references to the works in
which these privileges are mentioned?

They will find them noticed also at pages 67. and 68. of the second volume
of L. Guicciardini's _Belgium_ (ed. 1646): "_Jus Gruis liberae._" This is
mentioned as one of the privileges of Campvere. Can any of your legal
friends tell me what this is, and where I may find it treated of?

_Slang Expressions: "Just the Cheese"_ (Vol. vii., p. 617.).--This phrase
is only some ten or twelve years old. Its origin was this:--Some desperate
witty fellows, by way of giving a comic turn to the phrase "C'est une autre
chose," used to translate it, "That is another cheese;" and after awhile
these words became "household words," and when anything positive or
specific was intended to be pointed out, "That's the cheese" became
adopted, which is nearly synonymous with "Just the cheese."

_The Honorable Miss E. St. Leger_ (Vol. vii., p. 598.).--Perhaps your
correspondent MR. BREEN may like to be informed that the late General the
Honorable Arthur St. Leger related to me the account of his relative having
been made a master mason, and that she had secreted herself in an old
clock-case in Doneraile House, on purpose to learn the secrets of the
lodge, but was discovered from having coughed. The Rev. Richard Arthur St.
Leger, of Starcross, Devon, has an engraving of the lady, who is
represented arrayed in all the costume of a master mason, with the apron,
ring, and jewel of the order.

_Queries from the Navorscher_ (Vol. vii., p. 595.)--"The Choice of
Hercules," in the _Tatler_, was written by Addison; Swift did not
contribute more than one article to that publication, a treatise on
"Improprieties of Language." The allegory of "Religion being the Foundation
of Contentment" in the _Adventurer_, was the work of Hawkesworth, to whose
pen most of those papers are attributable.

"_Amentium haud amantium._"--The alliteration of this passage in the
_Andria_ of Terence is somewhat difficult to preserve in English; perhaps
to render it

"An act of _frenzy_ rather
